Hyperlapse I took today of Arenal Volcano in my home country Costa Rica
  • this is an awesome shot, very cool to see the volcano out like that. When I was there we only saw for a glimpse. Most peaceful place I’ve ever been.

  • ChatGPT for Android launches next week
  • the iOS app experience is clean, it’s still less functional than desktop but I feel like that’s expected.

  • I lost my job to ChatGPT and was made obsolete. I was out of work for 3 months before taking a new job passing out samples at grocery stores.
  • This is a complex issue!

    On one hand, I’m not sure what kind of consistent and great results people are getting with GPT today. It’s an amazing tool but it is still lacking in a lot of ways.

    Into the future? I think a lot of the jobs will change dramatically and entirely new ones will exist.

    Adaptation is necessary in life, a disruptive technology has been created and we are just starting to understand it.

  • Long Distance Rule
  • this is a great memetic analysis

  • Alternative Alignment
  • Interesting, thanks for sharing. As for an axis, I like aligning things on a spectrum and thinking about how decisions take you down different spectrums.

    I understand that’s just a label but understanding the relationship between the motivations is an interesting part of character development to me

  • Alternative Alignment
  • I am favorable to selfish vs selfless for evil vs good

  • Alternative Alignment
  • this is really awesome, never seen anything like this and love how this relates to the traditional alignment but is it’s own separate thing!

    If there was an axis, what would it be here??

  • Sometimes I get up early enough to see the sunrise in Arizona
  • We will see! It is very possible that the high heat and the tropical storms in the pacific will trigger the monsoon flow. Everybody wash your cars ;)

  • I met this beautiful defender in Costa Rica this year. He kept us safe!
  • Costa Rica is a beautiful and wonderful place. People are so warm and amazing to be around. Where did you meet this noble beast?

  • Lemmy right now

  • The Joy of Good Eating
  • BEANS! BEANS!

  • Do y'all even know how diverse beans are?!?
  • BEANS. BEANS! THEY ARE GOOD FOR YOUR HEART

  • The current state of reddit
  • I feel like the API debacle made me realize I had Stockholm syndrome. I look back and realize I would write and delete comments because I would be sure I’d have another redditor debating or nitpicking something unimportant, a lot of interactions were just antagonistic. Even a good amount of content was kind of boilerplate, a formula of what was going to get the most upvotes.

    If i never see a post about people complaining about karma or other meaningless internet points again, it’ll be too soon!

  • YSK: While you're on Lemmy/Kbin/Fediverse, you're not "the product" but you're also not "the customer".
  • Couldn’t agree more, we need to continue to attract the kind of people who would really be able to help grow this kind of community, so if you have friends you think would like this, try talking to them.

    Drop a couple bucks into support the admins and servers - think about streaming services you pay for and use less. $5-10/month to donate to a service you are using daily is pretty cheap considering.

  • Lemmy resembles the old reddit experience so well that they even emulate the old reddit server performance
  • Beehaw is a community that wants to create a specific type of experience for its users, it wants to create a safer space and has stricter rules.

    I think it’s personally a non-issue that people get riled up about. They’ve temporarily defederated from lemmy.world because of the large spikes in new users and wanting to have the moderation tools necessary to handle that while keeping their community the way they want it.

    There is a subset of new Lemmy users who think this experience needs to be Reddit 2.0, that it needs to be perfect and totally smooth for new users, or else it will fail?

    Personally, I don’t agree. I don’t want Lemmy to be Reddit at all. In the last month, I’ve found that I didn’t realize just how bad my Reddit experience had become. I’m okay with the experience being a little rough around the edges here and adjusting together. It has become obvious based on how good my interactions were here. How solid and interesting the content was. I’m not fiending for my specific subreddits, I’m good to move on and find new areas to focus on the internet.

    I have a separate account for Beehaw, all the iOS apps already have way way better functionality than the Reddit official app, I can seamlessly switch between accounts. It’s been absolutely amazing to see how much this site and experience has evolved in one month. I’m super excited for the future here.

    Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel

    Watched this movie for the first time today, I felt that a Wes Anderson film would be good for a Sunday afternoon. This was a great movie with a very unique setting and fast. William Dafoe is scary, the tone and pacing are great. There are a lot of mustaches:

    “Wes Anderson had all of his male cast members grow their head/face hair in the months leading up to production, and then they were each stylized once they arrived on set. "I think we certainly have the maximum supply of mustaches in this film," says Anderson.”
