… but their only real applications are for spreading misinformation …

There’s a ton of that going around with sora, but for all I know it could be a smalll group of people. According to their pricing page, 140 bucks a month normally (50% off right now lol) will get you almost 5000 videos a year. Seems plenty to spread a bunch of shit.

I liked subnautica quite a lot anyway, but I would buy the second one either way just to contribute to them paying the 250.

Only reading what’s in this post, I agree with them until:

Anyway, I was suspecting that this “issue” might come up so I’ve removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what’s generated and what is not.

You wrote a whole thing defending it, stand on it. If someone has a problem that Claude is being used in software, that’s their choice, why start hiding it? If you feel that Claude is more agreeable to your ethics than using Google, Microsoft, Meta, or OpenAI solutions then do it.

This keeps happening. I can understand using AI to help code, I don’t understand Claude having so much access to a system.

No, I don’t think I have that as an option on the cheaper plans. They have two tiers that they call lean and premium. Premium let’s you do all kinds of things, like hosting jellyfin and plex right from the seedbox, using the 'arrs, things like that. Those are fairly expensive for any meaningful amount of storage.

I have one of the lean plans. This is all you get with it:

I’ve used rapidseedbox for a while now, my experience has overall been pretty good. I had the 1TB plan for around 8 or 9 usd a month, then I switched to annual to get a deal and recently I upgraded to 2TB. They give you 3 torrent applications on those cheap plans, I use rutorrent after testing all 3 and that works fine for me. I use filezilla to get the files to my PC after.

I had one issue where those downloads to my PC got slow for a while, kind of randomly. I chatted their support (it’s one of those chat bubbles at the bottom of their page when you’re logged in). They had me switch from either sFTP to FTPs or the other way around (can’t remember) and then it was back to normal.

Early on, I had gotten a torrent for a very popular Linux iso that just dropped from a public site, so I accidentally let it seed many, many times over. I want to say that months upload was something like >10tb, at that point the website does complain. It’s been a while so I don’t remember the exact message but I set up a rule to stop after something like 8x upload and now it’s fine.

Overall, decent service for me, relatively fast and cheap, the support was good the two times I used it (though a little slow, but you don’t have to stay on the website waiting, it emails you when they respond).

Edit: there are 4, not 3.

How much do you care about the quality? Both what you hear and how well you’re heard? What’s a reasonable price to you? Wired or wireless?

I wonder how many api requests you’d need to accomplish something usable that you supplement with crowd sourcing.

Seems like you could do something with this https://www.zylalabs.com/api-marketplace/data/us+gas+cost+finder+api/5922#pricing
(I clicked around a bit on opis, couldn’t easily find pricing and moved on)

But if you’re in the thousands of dollars a month, you’d need to be wealthy enough to not give a shit, or already need a solid userbase and to start monetizing it.

I also had the Moto X and loved it. The wood back was neat. After then I kept getting bigger phones, from LG and Samsung, but nowadays I kind of miss smaller phones. I was also sold on the better cameras of these other brands. Depending what they release I might make my way back to Motorola. I’m pretty ingrained in Samsung at the moment.

then suddenly people will start really caring about how much information a service has access to

I sincerely doubt it. The majority of people will accept that this is just “how it is” and will move on with life. After all, they’re not doing anything wrong.

Can that be done on github?

I don’t contribute to open source projects (not talented enough at the moment, I can do basic stuff for myself sometimes) but I wonder if you can implement some kind of requirement to prove that your code worked to avoid this issue.

Like, you’re submitting a request that fixes X thing or adds Y feature, show us it doing it before we review it in full.

The closest I have to that, is Hate Me by Blue October.

The world is in peril. And not just from AI, or bioweapons, but from a whole series of interconnected crises unfolding in this very moment,

I feel that. If I had the means I’d probably fuckoff to some forest cabin at this point.

Hmm yes, I understand some of these acronyms. /s

Multiple people had to okay that.

Did they though? Back in the 70s? I wasn’t alive so this is a real question, but "Okay"ing things before publishing feels more recent than that. Especially in something like high times.

I’ve had a conversation with one of my friends a few times. Even if she was filthy rich she would still work. People always claim various things like getting bored or needing something to do or wanting purpose.

I would find plenty to do without working and her take on it blows my mind. In fact every argument I’ve heard from people in general, my response (at least in my head) is that I could still accomplish that thing without employment.

I can keep myself entertained doing the things I enjoy, I can find purpose helping people with my boatloads of cash, I would have time to learn all kinds of new skills. I could start businesses to handle some niche ethically, if the main players are scummy. The possibilities are damn near endless and if I’m ever rich, I’m not going to continue spending my time making some other prick richer.

Hasn’t this type of thing already been litigated?

Additionally, now that these people aren’t working, they can go and protest, the other part of a typical strike. That’s what actually gets eyeballs on the issue. It was national news that Minnesota just did one.
