So this is basically what happened to Piperchat?

Check out the thought emporium on YouTube, that dude been working on yeast that make spider silk. Also tons of other cool projects

Bless you. I love that guy. So gosh darn nit-picky on the details and its the best!! Never thought hour long videos on heat pumps or refrigerators or car headlights would hold my attention or be a favorite part of my week but he makes it happen.

Also highly recommend Buddhism, fallen a bit out of practice though. Thank you for the reminder.

No, thank you. I very much appreciate this transparency and expertise. I just wasn’t sure, based on what I had seen in some 10 minutes of skimming. Thanks again for your noble volunteering!

Hey, I want to start out saying that I thank you and deeply respect you for your work on this platform. I have taken several minutes to explore this persons account on lemmy.ml and they replied that this response was supposed to be sarcastic. That was also my initial interpretation as this reply would not make very much sense literally as bigoted/bad faith people don’t generally (in my limited experience, admins/mods have much more) call open minded people bigoted in direct response to others directly saying they are “keeping an open mind”. I did not go back far enough in their history or didn’t notice what could have caused the temp ban before. I find the person argumentative sure, but not acting in bad faith per-say nor are their stated views in many comments indicative of this. Could you, if you have the time/energy reconsider this ban and/or reply with evidence of this past bad faith that resulted in temp-ban? Thank you

bing chat is pretty great, not only do you get the benefits of search and gpt4 but also summarizing/answering questions on the webpage you have open or pdfs if you open them in edge. Only issue is that it is slower

Now are these companies stealing everything and possibly opening up a cesspit that their platforms will fall into? Absolutely. These tools are literally removing the ability for them to advertise because they are leading to less link traffic that would have google ads or otherwise and also the degradation of search tools… but by god its super useful for now

only real problem for me personally is that it gives low barrier to entry to ask about any question that pops in my ADHD brain, so I keep having more and more questions that never stop. Learning a lot tho

I didn’t realize how afraid I was to comment or post until being on here. Almost low-key traumatized. Really has been making me question what social media can ‘bee’ and how many people resort to lurking when perhaps they’d rather engage
