Yeah the app seems quite polished already around the video viewing experience at least. Wonder how it populates the default feed.

"AI company shuts down"

We're gonna read that more often in the next few years.

Arguably, they know each other from work, so it's not like the guy could just bury her somewhere remote and act like nothing happened. If she tells other people about the date, police will surely come and ask him.

I got my loops.video account activated today (loops.video)
 

So far, there is only some user settings accessible in the web interface. I don't have an iPhone, hence I cannot say for their app. The android app will come later, apparently.

I really wonder if this is just a different frontend for pixelfed that is video-centric, or if it will be something else.

Since it is supposed to be the TikTok of the fediverse, I really wonder if it will, like pixelfed also just feature a chronological timeline? Because what makes TikTok so popular is not the short videos, but the recommendation algorithm that doesn't even require people to follow any accounts.

If it's just another chronological media feed then they could have just modified pixelfed to only allow video upload and would jabe archived the same thing. So far I am really wondering if loops is a new thing, or if it will be just another reskin of mastodon/pixelfed/...

Oh wow, it was that easy all the time to fix a country's economy? Why did no one think of that before?

Is it just me or is bluesky full of anime porn in c/technology@lemmy.world

Well, let's say I haven't figured out how to block whole instances, or maybe it was not possible when I made my first Lemmy account. But on the anime instances there is like a new community every week or so.

True. On lemmy I have a long blocklist full of anime stuff.

I just made an account in bluesky. And was greeted by lots of anime tits. Nothing against people's preferences, but is this how businesses nowadays greet new customers? I mean, they are trying to build a twitter alternative, aren't they?

Good self-hosted groceries app? (sopuli.xyz)

Should be easy to use, remember what I bought before and propose things that are probably running out (based on my personal buying frequency), and allow sharing the list between multiple people. Ideally also allow adding recipes for meals that I cook often.

How to follow newspapers on mastodon without being spammed? (sopuli.xyz)
 

Hi,

I have a mastodon account and would like to follow some newspapers with that. I just did, but the newspapers are posting so much that my whole timeline is just spammed with their posts. Often also stuff I am not interested in.

Is anyone else here following newspapers on mastodon? How are you handling the spam?

pluralistic: the alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin. (pluralistic.net)

The alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin.

As @pluralistic@mamot.fr wrote: that's "mystical nonsense about spontaneous consciousness arising from applied statistics".

Real problems we face with AI are:

Ghost labor, erosion of the rights of artists, costs of automation, the climate impact of data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems.
