I'm not sure about Fluxer specifically, but I've seen Zulip being deployed as a self-contained chat room for a few projects now. Also Stoat claims to be a Discord replacement. What does Fluxer offer in particular that the other two don't?

Let me save you a few keystrokes, there's already an app called Matterbridge: github.com/42wim/matterbridge

Fair that! Only problem is, I don't have any acquaintances, but if I ever fix that, then maybe we can work on that.

I'm already self-hosting a XMPP and a Matrix server, just in case. A shame that most of the group chats I've found there are about free software, assorted geekery, but not much of what I'd usually find on Discord - hopefully that changes in a few years.

Wait until they downgrade him from Mountbatten to just Hill

Somebody actually did the math, and even accounting for all the energy that it takes for a human to stay alive a pair of decades, it's not even a hundredth of the energy needed to run the training of GPT-3. And GPT-4 took over fifty times that. Cf. fosstodon.org/@atoponce/116121…

One of the few times where it's valid to ask, "lowkirknuinely?!"

Long story short: he was trying to find the password for his own vacuum (yeah that already sounds ridiculous) so he could control it with a game controller, and found that the same exact credentials worked for an estimated 7000 other vacuums that need to call home to process visual data in the cloud. Hidden behind the lede: DJI automated vacuums require constantly sending their footage abroad to even work in the first place

They could have spelled it Kyunte, and somehow chose not to.

Sounds like the kind of deprecation that can be possibly fixed with an automation. And I can see why is Archive Today considered harmful.
