Just realized that ChatGPT's style of utterly confident yet completely unsourced and unbelievable answers have been coming from computers in movies basically forever, and maybe this explains the whole thing:

When you post on Twitter(1) or Bluesky(2) you grant them a broad perpetual license to use, modify, and sublicense your content. You effectively make them co-owners of your content. They can mine it and monetize it. They can even sell it. When you post on Mastodon(3) most instances take no license at all. That's right, they tell you what they are doing with your content—storing posts and delivering them—but no license.

@natharari @micahflee it's bad because Dorsey and Musk are in cahoots. Also, they don't ban Nazis https://twitter.com/davetroy/status/1651685098515755010?t=CSGzKdHPMTOusgCIqjqLFA&s=19

Which one would you use if you want a highly stable desktop device with snapshot capabilities, and why?

Please RT in the #Linux bubble for more reach, I need to make this decision soon and got actually no idea. But having stuff like lsblk, gnome-system-monitor etc. showing it properly would be a bonus. #btrfs #zfs #filesystem #tech #techsupport #sysadmin

Somehow all the women who credibly accuse Trump of sexual assault are "not his type." https://www.thebulwark.com/after-years-of-waiting-e-jean-carroll-testifies-on-trump-and-trauma/

Seth Meyers: Fox News Allegedly Has a Secret Dossier of Dirt on Tucker Carlson Amid Messy Split https://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/52647_Seth_Meyers-_Fox_News_Allegedly_Has_a_Secret_Dossier_of_Dirt_on_Tucker_Carlson_Amid_Messy_Split

"If I were seeking advancement from people I didn’t agree with, it would have been far easier to become a Trumpist and reap the rewards." The WSJ editorial page looks like it can't imagine any motivation for anything other than partisan positioning. https://www.thebulwark.com/the-wall-street-journals-double-standards/

#Russia insisted that #USSR/#Soviet Bloc membership was voluntary, when it was coerced. Russia now implies/claims NATO/EU membership is coerced, when it's voluntary. Ru's manipulation isn't surprising. But Westerners who should be able to see NATO/EU's voluntary nature first-hand and who know very little about the USSR/Soviet Bloc falling for and spreading Ru's claim are exasperating.
