mastodon 4.7.3Novice dungeon master and reluctant gardener. Auld lad.
Aspiring pseudo-intellectual.
Novice Nordie. I like to shite on a bit.
I have manual approval on follow requests, not becuase I'm up myself, but there's some people out there.
I'm just one little handsome datapoint, but here's something to consider when people tell you how much software gets written by AI.
Used to be when I wrote
my editor would suggest a
to match, and I would accept it.Now, that still happens, but the editor sends the entire file state on a round trip to LLM servers before triumphantly announcing that paragraphs probably end as well as start.
Thanks to me installing the company's special Copilot after a hundred or so gentle reminders.
cycled the Greenway from Westport to Achill and got a new view of Sliabh Mór.

I'm in an online community for tech professionals, and of the people who want to talk about AI, every type of position is represented by multiple people. Fans, haters, mixed opinions, all well-represented.*
There is a grand total of one lad who tries to defend pervert glasses and it's both funny and reassuring.
*( except when there was one lad who admitted to paying for Grok and was treated like the AI guy of AI guys by the AI guys )
You asked; we answered: no

Fake nerd confession: I've never done this before, usually finding it easier to just buy a new computer.
There was a time when your friend could say "whether you like these big companies or not, we wouldn't have the Internet in its current state without them"
Really feels like we're getting closer to the day when you can throw it back at them.

Someone has a petition to a few Irish government ministers about not having any particular social media site as the sole repository of public announcements.
Fair enough, like, it's a half-arsed practice: https://my.uplift.ie/petitions/public-info-public-access-stop-providing-public-info-on-private-social-networks

Can't take the John Wick films seriously because the spin-off film they made wasn't just those two dogs from one of the films jumping on lads for two hours.

Someone was asking me about Arabic speakers on Mastodon and the broader Fediverse. They are curious about attracting Arabic speakers.
As far as I can tell, Arabic speakers aren't a big part of Fedi compared to European languages, and are quite spread out and there's no moderately large instance with primarily Arabic speaking users.
There's a Tunisian instance, on the smaller side, but has some Arabic posts.
Anything else I can tell them?
