Goodbye .ee, we'll miss you 🥺
  • Too late for a lemm.ee account, but in case it's relevant in the future - Lemmy has the option to export and import account information in the settings menu. It won't copy posts, but it will copy everything else, allowing for much easier migration.

  • Congressman Brandon Gill tells mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani "Go back to the Third World"
  • The term is pretty racist itself, since it was created to refer to tertiary countryies in the Cold War, but soon came to simultaneously suggest those countries were lesser. Calling a failing state "3rd world" just further perpetuates that.

  • People Are Being Involuntarily Committed, Jailed After Spiraling Into "ChatGPT Psychosis"
  • The thing is, it's not about it being convincing or not, it's about reinforcing problematic behaviors. LLMs are, at their core, agreement machines that work to fulfill whatever goal becomes apparent from the user (it's why they fabricate answers instead of responding in the negative if a request is beyond their scope). And when it comes to the mentally fragile, it doesn't even need to be particularly complex to "yes, and..." them swiftly into full on psychosis. Their brains only need the littlest bit of unfettered reinforcement to fall into the hole.

    A properly responsible company would see this and take measures to limit or eliminate the problem, but these companies see the users becoming obsessed with their product as easy money. It's sickening.

  • People Are Being Involuntarily Committed, Jailed After Spiraling Into "ChatGPT Psychosis"
  • Acting like your experience is exemplary of every possible experience other people can have with LLMs is just turning around the blame on the victims. The lack of safeguards to prevent this is to blame, not the people prone to mental issues falling victim to it.

  • Steam Sale is in full swing. Any souls-like recs?

    I don't have many bombshells myself, unfortunately. Mostly just oldies and things I've been waiting on.

    Hollow Knight is good for any price, but for $7.50 is a steal. Absolutely stellar game.

    Another Crab's Treasure is an...interesting one. I haven't finished it, but it had fairly good combat, imo, and a very different atmosphere to the grimdark horrors we usually find in souls-likes. I do recall the leveling felt a bit lackluster, but maybe that was just me.

    Nine Souls and TUNIC are two I've been considering for a little while now. I think I'll nab Tunic and wait on Nine Souls a little longer, personally. Death's Door also caught my eye at $5. Might be a good snag.

    How about y'all? Any must haves with good deals this sale?
