Agreed. Private-owned AI competing against humans for limited jobs in a capital based market is a nightmare.
Public-owned AI producing and providing for all is not.
AI was trained on the work of millions and is inhuman in its productive capabilities. It has no business being private owned
There’s controversy over whether VPN + TOR is a good combo. Some say it’s an added layer of anonymity, others say it could be decreasing anonymity because your VPN could be logging your traffic. Some also say the two don’t mesh well. But honestly the juries out so everyone should probably come to their own conclusion
Made a post linking to r/piracy and r/freemediaheckyeah’s backups hosted on NotABug and Rentry. Here. If that’s not what you had in mind then all good, I’ll just leave it there
Also, how do I safely download from these sites?
I thought there was a mirror on lemmy for r/piracy’s spectacular megathread but I don’t see it. Rough guides from a semi-noob:
Direct download:
TOR with Ublock Origin add-on
After downloading your file, upload it to virustotal.com and scan it. If it passes you’re probably pretty safe.
Torrent:
Find and copy your file magnet in TOR.
Turn on VPN.
Open qbittorrent with your connection bound to your VPN’s network.
Paste your magnet link when it prompts you and download.
Once it’s done downloading, upload it to virustotal to scan it.
Lemmy will have to learn to hide the sausage-maker if they want laymen to enjoy their sausage. That is to say they’ll have to make a way for the everyman to interact without the barrier to entry.
Though, no one says Lemmy has to become a AAA social media site
Eh, reddit really isn’t much better in this department. It’s not uncommon for multiple subs to exist for the same userbase (r/memes vs r/dankmemes, r/christian vs r/truechristian). Over time users figure out which is which, which is the main one, and which is for them
Dark Souls: should I pick up I or III?
For context, I never got into DS until I played Elder Scrolls, which I’ve been obsessed with
