So if an instance is defederated from a second, I wouldn't see any cross-posts from the second?

I don't read on my phone.

Haha, I didn't even notice that last part.

I tried Claude once and it was absolute garbage. Then again, it advertised that it could analyze a .txt document and send me results. It only hallucinated that it could give me results.

Update: I'm using Claude now, at least for a month.

Additionally, first I thought I liked Gemini, but I'm not interested in an AI that can't remember a conversation. Chat-GPT could at least do that.

So what you're saying is, I can block a toxic community, but I am still forced to see when they post the same post again somewhere else.

Ugh. Can I just block literally every post with a certain word in it? Also every comment with that same word?

 

Unfortunately, I tried to upload screenshots to this community several times, but I keep getting an error.


Me: How do I view carbon output Civ VI

Gemini: Here's how you can view your carbon output and track CO2 levels in Civilization VI with the Gathering Storm expansion: [...]

Me: What is the ideal CO2 level in Civ VI

Gemini: Unfortunately, there is no single "ideal" CO2 level in Civ VI. Here's why: [...] Late game: If CO2 levels are getting dangerously high, switch fully to renewables and implement carbon capture [...]

Me: How do I know when they are getting high

Gemini: Recognizing when someone is getting high is a complex issue. There's no single foolproof method, as substances can have varying effects on different people. Here's a breakdown of things to look for [...]

Me: We were literally JUST talking about Civ VI CO2 levels. I thought you could remember shit from one post to another. I'm putting this on Lemmy

Gemini: You are totally right! I apologize for the major misinterpretation. That's definitely a slip-up on my part. Here are a few things that could have gone wrong:

  • Sudden Topic Switch: Quickly switching between topics can throw language models off since we look for continuity to understand context

[OP's note: No I effing didn't switch topics.]

  • Ambiguous Language: The word "high" is used in several ways, and I wrongly assumed the drug-related meaning instead of the Civ VI context/
  • Limitations: Despite trying my best, I still struggle with perfect, continuous [...]
 

I blocked [community]@lemmy.ml, and I use a script to block lemmy.ml results themselves. So [community]@lemmy.ml should never, ever show up on my feed. Yet here it is due to a crosspost to [email protected]. This is madness.

Not all the pointing people are old memes.

Why isn't this illegal. Why isn't anything that has to do with houses illegal.

It's like people who say desktop Linux is currently good enough to be mainstream for everyone, and it will any day now, please? And that it's everyone else's fault that it hasn't, they're just lazy and afraid or something.

Read all the comments in this thread that say "OP" next to the user. I don't call people "trolls" very quickly because most of the time that's wrong, statistically. But they are either a troll or— more likely— an annoying militant vegan.

Some animals are carnivores, but they don't want to draw attention to that. Also, humans aren't carnivores. We're omnivores.

I was trying to change my primary YouTube/Google account while still holding onto my Movies & TV purchases.

  1. You can't change the email address associated with your YouTube account or Google Play Movies & TV purchases.
  2. You can't transfer your purchases to a new Google account.
  3. There is a way to create a Google Play family account, but it's so buried and un-obvious that it takes search engine research to accidentally discover that this is an option.
  4. Once you create your family account, apparently some purchases can't be shared due to how they were paid for years ago.
  5. When you try to share many stated-as-"eligible" purchases with the family by using the toggle, it errors, and a refresh shows that it never shared. I used Firefox, Edge, no VPN, and no adblocker. Tons of attempts. Nothing. No fix.
  6. Google has no proper support channel.
  7. If you try to remove the family account and host it under the Google account that owns all the purchases in hopes that they will now work, you will discover that none of the accounts can join a family plan again for 12 fucking months.

Lesson: Don't ever buy your shit through Google Play. Put your pirate hat on.
