- Comment on The State of Lemmy (drama) 1 week ago:
The attacks, reparations and humiliation are pretty much exactly what happened to Germany after WWI and lead directly to the rise of the Nazis. The Nazis convinced the Germans that the weimar Republic was too weak for putting up with BRAT from the treaty of Versailles, created scapegoats, and then offered simple solutions to deal with them. Almost exactly what is happening right now in the US.

I hope you’re right. I’ve heard nothing but how weak and poor etc. Russia is but it seems like they have been advancing their plans since Moldova, Georgia, Crimea, Belarus, Ukraine… and only gaining momentum.

They’ve been Russia’s main aid all along. The no limits agreement?

Russia has almost totally shifted to a war-time economy

But they’re not fighting a conventional war. They didn’t invade the US or Belarus on foot.
Once they have Ukraine and US is not supporting NATO it’s not looking good for Europe.

It’s a bit like trying to figure out who invented the car but I would tend to agree it’s when people turned their power over to daddy Regan and went shopping after Carter treated them like adults…
Still don’t get what OP meant vis-à-vis Russia and Europe.

I think it’s possibly the end of Western democracy. If Russia and China stroll through Europe with Trump’s help, that’s pretty much it, no?

- Comment on AI-generated poetry is indistinguishable from human-written poetry and is rated more favorably - Scientific Reports 2 months ago:
Also, it only works when there’s a human weeding out all but the “best” poems.
…when a human chooses the best AI-generated poem (“human-in-the-loop”) participants cannot distinguish AI-generated poems from human-written poems, but when an AI-generated poem is chosen at random (“human-out-of-the-loop”), participants are able to distinguish AI-generated from human-written poems.

Plexamp is the best music service I’ve ever used and it’s a great way to get into self hosting. Once it’s set up why not add some tv and movies?

There was Mycroft but it got killed by a patent troll although afaik you can still run it. OpenvoiceOS and Neon AI have picked up the ball.
