Yeah none of this is good advice generally.

A person who just made a suicide attempt nedds routine and normality but with a lot of friendly interactions sprinkled throughout that.

Sometimes family can even be one of the reasons a person gets so driven to go that far.

So cutting off contact and potentially making his family put even more pressure on him is one of the worst things you could do.

Cutting off contact only helps if you can’t handle the situation or the person anymore, and that still doesn’t help them, it just shields you from mental stress.

Das würde Kinder für 16 Jahre daran hindern an jeglichem Online-Diskurs teilzunehmen und Eltern daran die Kinder langsam und Schritt für Schritt an das Internet heranzuführen.

Find ich ne ziemlich dumme Idee…

I second that.

This guy foods. He had me when said he has tattoos.

If this sounds like retaliation, that’s probably a good reason to get your union involved.

Either there is more to the story you’re not telling us, or your manager and that coworker are absolute assholes. Maybe even both.

Ok well fuck that CeO with a rusty spoon then.

I mean making someone ineligible to be president for as long as he is under investigation for insurrection, treason or other crimes against the United States sounds pretty straightforward.

He could always wait and get back into it the next cycle if the investigation gets dropped or if he’s proven innocent.

Don’t like it, can’t change a lot of it.

Some stuff I can replace with open source software, but a lot of stuff will always be proprietary and opaque. I kinda just have to deal with that.

It is by choice. Prominent developers made that choice because they thought it might eliminate a lot of the popularity incentives reddit creates.

Now I don’t agree with that choice, but many others here do. I don’t think this solves the incentive issues but just makes instances a bit more of a wild western and requires moderators to do more work figuring out what to make of an account.

Maybe it would be great if this is still an option you could turn on / off per instance or something.

Yes, this is exactly what I’ve found them to be the most useful for.

Here’s a list:

• ChatGPT

Lemmy will hate me for this, but it remains the best chat it there is, especially if you subscribe to the pro version. There’s different models but essentially it’s just a good bot that will be really helpful giving you feedback on thoughts and ideas.

A to A- tier

• Gemini

Google AI chat bot which seems to be well received recently. I will be an asshole an assume it’s not gonna be quite as good but it looks like they’re sticking out now.

A- to B+ tier

• Bing / Copilot

Microsoft’s AI attempt. It is an AI but it’s only OK. Might get enough out of it for your purpose but it already has a long list of hiccups recorded so this is not something I would hang my head on all the time. Because it’s got bing integration, generally the AI assisted search can be helpful though.

B tier

• Llama on huggingface

Basically an open source alternative to ChatGPT done well, although not quite as good. This Facebook’s work which they are graciously providing free of charge for everyone to enjoy and tinker with. Huggingface is great because you will always find live demos of all the models there so if you are not a power user, in a limited way you can use this model on the website.

Between B and C tier

• Llama self setup

Llama is open source so it is possible to set it up yourself. Using the webui it is possible to do this on your own PC, removing the limitations for conversation speed and message counts. You will be struggling if your graphics card can’t entertain the model though (good models eat vram for breakfast). If you have it setup, you will always get the best experience out of the Llama models which might make this worth it.

C tier

Other than those there are a lot of sites offering subscriptions to what is basically a different frontend for chatgpt or other open source models, which is arguably worse than all the options mentioned. There might be some gems in the rough but I haven’t looked too far into it. This should give you an introductory overview though which is presumably more helpful to you.

I personally use ChatGPT and I am starting to appreciate it a lot. It does still lead ahead of Llama or anything else.

After reading your comments, it looks like what you’re looking for is an AI that remembers your conversations. Generally an AI can only “remember” a specific amount of tokens (words iirc) and it will have amnesia about the rest.

I think the bigger Llama models will have high token cutoff as well as copilot (?) don’t quote me on that tho.

We’re not at the point where an AI will remember details for over a year from one conversation but if you always open a new conversation for a specific topic, you will already be able to get 90% of the way to where you want.

Good luck on your endeavors ;)

Seconding that.

Not cruel, but firm and transparent. Not too escalating, but not too subtle. Spot on.

Some lemonade with less sugar, two different flavors.

Usually it’s 1-2 bottles.

I think this really depends on how you quit. If you do it on an impulse, that’s gonna really roll the dice, but if you already have another job lined up and you know the financial hit can be dampened by savings or another way, you might feel a bit safer.

I just heard that my contract can’t be renewed and it runs out in March, so I’ll have too look for something. I have enough time and I already took care of everything else so I don’t have to panic anymore, but the anxiety will be there until I secured another job I’m happy with, and I just gotta deal with that.

My current job is not toxic but it does keep me on my toes and one of my bosses I can’t get along with; he is always suspicious of me and I can’t really deal with that. I just wanna do my job and not appeal to people lol.

I mean looking at him I can see how he’s not very flexible…

“alcohol makes you act without thinking and pot makes you think without action” is so gonna be stolen for future use. Yoink.

The game is so good. Well deserving of all the awards.

NSFW Tag where

Oh you mean the handle outside of the door …

For some reason I thought the item holder in the car door that’s accessible from inside the car only.

Yeah no doxxing then, ofc.

• one penny
• marbles (something something lost their marbles)
• a lego brick
• origami crane
• notes saying ridiculous stuff like “remember to water your car before you leave” or “this car belongs to [your name and address]”
• a very embarrassing mini figure like maybe barbie, winx club, things like that
