@DaveMWilburn gird your loins for the influx of new users
@Viss I'm doubtful. They've had plenty of scandals already, and they mostly didn't result in huge influxes of new Fedi users.

@DaveMWilburn ive seen trivially half a dozen huge waves of people who fall off bsky and come here. some go back again, but there's always a 'wave'

or maybe not actually ads - maybe it's gonna be AI training. they're gonna announce a partnership with one of the frontier llm orgs to ingest the firehose to train a new conversational model or something.
@Viss they can already do that for free, can't they?

@rawrmonstar im not sure how interacting with any frontier model at that scale could be free - if they are training their own, then its tens of millions in spend on gear to do it in-house. if theyre using the cloud, then its 5x that in cloud costs. if they are training a frontier model, then that company will probably eat the cost, but its still a shitload of engineering heavy lift to make it happen

@quinn oh totally. option B is that they just hoover up absolutely everything on the platform and feed it in its entirety to an llm and get paid for it that way

@ramsey @catsalad zero clue. back when i was on bsky, for the short period i used it, none of their staff would ever reply to me or respond to me in any way - which made it all the more delicious every time they fell on their faces from problems twitter solved ten years ago that i could have trivially helped them with.

@Viss I meant you can access the BlueSky firehouse without a partnership with them can't you? Why would an AI company pay BlueSky when they don't need to?

@rawrmonstar oh, i see. no idea then, im just speculating. but with a vc in charge as the ceo, you can bet there's gonna be some big announcement coming

@quinn oh sure, like those cerveza crystal commercials in chile - where they hack the ad right into the movie

It says something that they couldn't find someone from industry to be the next CEO.

@not_a_label will they really notice if it's 196 people instead of 197?

@yumenaut il problema dell'audio da quello che vedo online sembra essere stato risolto con le versioni del kernel dalla 6.7 in poi. provo a vedere se c'è qualcos'altro riguardo alla risoluzione video e ai tasti fn

It's Shitty Saturday, what are we doing?

@yumenaut hmmmMmmm allora sì, punterei al cambio chiavetta tenendo Cinnamon!
-
@serimemo Cinnamon. Cambiare chiavetta rientrerebbe tra le opzioni, perché quella che ho usato è un po' zoppicante (tra l'altro mi aveva dato qualche problema di scrittura della .iso usando Etcher)
