Is Character.ai (and similar services) an example of massive intellectual property infringement?
  • I believe there is still a major court case underway to decide if AI trained on copyrighted data makes it's derivative works copyrighted too.

    It's an important court battle because it will set a precedent for every other AI related case for all the other AI companies

  • 17% of the US's Infrastructure & Jobs Act goes to transit. 67% goes to conventional highway programs
  • Every panel is flawed

    People don't walk that closely together

    People don't bike that closely together

    Only a double decker bus could fit that many people without cramming people in like sardines

    Moving cars should obey a safe following distance, so unless traffic is gridlocked, they shouldn't be that close either

    Why you haven't found your significant other?
  • Abusive + overprotective mother growing up

    Now I hardly have any feelings, let alone romantic ones, I associate the words "I love you" with danger, I actively avoid hugs because I never had that growing up.... I could go on

    Then she has the audacity to ask when she's getting grandkids

  • Can I install an app to improve the sound quality on my phone?
  • You can change which Bluetooth audio protocol is being used in the developer options

    Search up how to enable developer options on Android. It's almost always from tapping the build number a certain number of times

  • I struggle with depression and alexithymia. How do I write with emotion?
  • My entire life is about using logic instead of emotions to make decisions. Fortunately I am slowly getting the help that I need, but for now: Using logic definitely allows me to get by in daily life, even if it would be better to be able to describe my actual emotions

  • I struggle with depression and alexithymia. How do I write with emotion?
  • I have the same combo of illnesses (though maybe less intense Alexithymia)

    A useful resource for me is an emotion wheel (you can find one with your favourite search engine)

    It has tiers to it, so you could start with happy, for example, then get more specific with the sub-categories

    You and I both know there would be great difficulty in identifying what actual emotion you feel with regards to your childhood home, even with an emotion wheel. Since you're not being judged on the accuracy on the emotions identified, you can pick a few that sounds reasonable.

    For me, your assignment would more feel like a language exercise of picking the right word that makes sense in context, rather than thinking about the actual emotions experienced. In this case, the emotion wheel would help by acting as a reference of emotions to consider, and act as a sanity check if you're writing something positive but chose an emotion that is a sub category of anger, for example

  • Self-hosted lemmy not receiving all posts or upvotes

    Hi all, I tried hosting my own lemmy instance to take some of the load off lemmy.world, but a lot of the posts do not get synchronised to my instance. When they do, they never got more than a couple upvotes.

    I get a lot of warnings in the logs that I've got an incoming connection not on my allowed hosts, of which I've put "lemmy.world" and "lemmy.ml"

    Does self hosting like this actually reduce the load on lemmy.world and the fediverse? And how can I fix the issue I'm having?
