  • When will people learn that LLMs have no understanding of truth or facts? They just generate something that looks like it was written by a human with some amount of internal consistency while making baseless assumptions for anything that doesn’t show up (enough) in their training set.

    That makes them great for writing fiction but try asking ChatGPT for the best restaurants in a small town. It will gladly and without hesitation list you ten restaurants that have never existed, including links to websites that may belong to a completely different restaurant.



  • Off the shelf stuf:

    • Lemmy
    • Mastodon
    • Tinc VPN (for retro gaming with friends)
    • Nextcloud
    • docker-mailserver (including roundcubemail)
    • feedbin
    • GitLab
    • MediaWiki (set to private for personal notes)
    • Minecraft
    • Etherpad
    • Munin
    • Several wordpress instances for friends

    Selfwritten:

    • Discord bot that implements the basic rules for some TTRPGs
    • Character generation tools for some niche TTRPGs
    • Personal blog
    • Signup website for a local community meetup


  • I remember reading that IcedCoffeeBitch is actually a hot tea lover and liked to watch videos of tea leaves being steeped. Source? Don’t know, one person said it.

    Again, I hate spez and definitely don’t want to defend him but if we want to be taken seriously, we have to stick to provable facts. Everything else gives spez a chance to say “see, they’re telling lies about me, don’t listen to them.”



  • As much as I hate this guy, could we please stick to the facts and criticise him for things that he actually did?

    From what I can see, spez did not moderate jailbait. He was added by one of the other mods because back then you could just add people as mods without their consent. I have yet to see proof that he ever actively participated in that sub.

    So please, go ahead, dislike him for being a lying jerk who‘s actively killing reddit but don’t jump on something that someone else did without asking.
