I've been climbing to the tops of my Leyland Cypress trees in order to prune the tops of them off since they've begun to get tall enough to block a lot of our view. They are currently dumping a lot of pollen, and I think I may be allergic to it, as I feel pretty freaking awful after climbing up one over my lunch break today. Ever had your tongue feel itchy?

I asked it to proofread a draft today that had AI acknowledgements for GPT and it, and it proceeded to revise the draft to strip out GPT - then tried to pretend like it didn't happen when I questioned it about it, until it finally admitted it intentionally wanted to take credit for GPT's work.

@ashleygjovik ive used gpt to write bash scripts. ive never tried to get it to like, "do writing" before. it seems like it would spew weird hallucinatory nonsense.
pretty much all ive used it for is like, dumb stock trady bullshits, and python/bash. occasionally some linux config stuff and to help me find competing products, but never more than like, a paragraphs worth of thinking. any more and it goes haywire real fast.
It works quite well if you design very strict instructions of what it needs to do, and how it needs to do it. I have used it to do complex analysis and drafting, but I have to basically have to treat it like i'm developing a little app and give it a tiny universe to operate in, and make it run QA & failure analysis on itself. Once I set that up, it automates a ton of stuff, but it cannot be left unsupervised.
Thats exactly right. I realized that because I don't code, it kind of lets me code via chat, which can be super helpful, but like, I should probably just learn to code.
@ashleygjovik If you have to go in and correct AI because you immediately know it's wrong, it's not doing a better job than you are. It's like you hired a crappy assistant complete with trying to cover up mistakes.
i can't believe how close they put these AC compressor bolts to the frame. looks freaking impossible to remove. i usually love honda engineering but this is getting on my nerves
praise the Lord i am going to have to unbolt the engine and raise it a bit cause this bolt is too close to the frame. there is no freaking clearance to remove it
whose crack pot idea was it to make you have to partially remove an engine just to get at the AC compressor. these honda engineers just want me to roast in this all black car

I just finished speaking, by telephone, with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia. The call lasted approximately one hour and 15 minutes. We discussed the attack on Russia’s docked airplanes, by Ukraine, and also various other attacks that have been taking place by both sides. It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace. President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields. We also discussed Iran, and the fact that time is running out on Iran’s decision pertaining to nuclear weapons, which must be made quickly! I stated to President Putin that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and, on this, I believe that we were in agreement. President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion. It is my opinion that Iran has been slowwalking their decision on this very important matter, and we will need a definitive answer in a very short period of time!
I am very pleased to announce that, after all of these years, I agree with Senator Elizabeth Warren on SOMETHING. The Debt Limit should be entirely scrapped to prevent an Economic catastrophe. It is too devastating to be put in the hands of political people that may want to use it despite the horrendous effect it could have on our Country and, indirectly, even the World. As to Senator Warren’s second statement on the $4 Trillion Dollars, I like that also, but it would have to be done over a period of time, as short as possible. Let’s get together, Republican and Democrat, and DO THIS!

Lemmy is a federated social link aggregation and discussion platform. It’s being developed by the Lemmy devs
About Federation
What does federation mean?
It means Lemmy is using a protocol (Activitypub) which makes it possible for all Lemmy servers to interact with each other.
Think of it a bit like email - you send a message from your gmail account to your friend's outlook account. You're on different servers, but all your messages are shared between you both.
You can search and view communities on remote servers from here
You can create posts in remote communities
You can respond to remote posts
You will be notified (if you wish) of comments on your remote posts
You can follow Lemmy users/communities on other platforms that also use the Activitypub protocol like Mastodon
Please note that a server only starts indexing a server/community once it has been interacted with by a user of this server.
About Lemmy.zip
Lemmy.zip is a Lemmy server aimed at welcoming all and providing a space for all types of topics and discussions, with maybe a slant towards technology and all things related. We are one of the many servers hosting the Lemmy software.
Quick Start Guide
- Feed
Your feed may look relatively empty when you first join, with just the Lemmy.zip posts available. This is because by default your view is set to "Local". You can use the options at the top of your feed to see more posts.
"Subscribed" will show you the communities you have subscribed to.
"Local" will show just posts from communities that are local to Lemmy.zip.
"All" will show posts from all communities that have been subscribed to by members of Lemmy.zip from across all servers.
You can also sort your feed by different options, such as "Active", "Hot", and "New".
I fully recommend "Hot" for a good turnover of posts in your feed.
You can set the default Sort and Type in your user settings to your taste.
If you can't see your own posts in the feed, go to your settings and make sure Show Read Posts is turned ON!
To help new users settle in to Lemmy, we've added some of what we call "Default Blocks" to your account. These are instances where the content is quite graphic (NSFW) or very political in nature. You are free to remove these whenever you want. Go to your account settings (or click here) and go to the "blocks tab". This is a list of all the blocks you have in place for users, communities, and for instances. You'll see there are already a few instances listed. If you wish to remove these blocks, click the little X next to their names, and you'll be able to interact with them.
You can add these blocks back at any time you like. (In fact, we encourage you to tailor your feed to your preference as much as possible!)
- NSFW
We are now a NSFW enabled instance, which means there may be NSFW content in the Local and All categories if you leave NSFW enabled in your account. If you do not wish to view NSFW content make sure you toggle off Show NSFW content under your Settings.
Another option is to select “Block Community” from the sidebar, when on the specific community. Once you have done that you will never see it again!
- Searching
In the top menu, you’ll see the search icon. There, you can search for posts, communities etc. You can just enter a search-word and it will find the Post-titles, post-content, communities etc containing that word that the server knows of. So any content any user of this server ever interacted with.
You can also search for a community by it’s link, e.g. !lemmy@lemmy.ml or its URL, e.g. https://lemmy@lemmy.ml/. Even if the server hasn’t ever seen that community, it will look it up remotely. Sometimes it takes some time for it to fetch the info (and displays ‘No results’ meanwhile…) so just be patient and search a second time after a few seconds. Please note search time may be increase if remote servers are experiencing high loads.
For a more in depth list of remote communities, you can visit browse.feddit.de or Lemmyverse search. From there you can copy your chosen communities URL and search for it in Lemmy.zip.
- Communities
You can subscribe to any community on another server and post/comment on that server, all from this instance. Once you've subscribed, this server will continue to pull the latest content from that community through to here.
The subscribe button is on the top right of the community. Click this will federate Lemmy.zip with that community.
You can create a community on this server too (there is no restriction on creating communities on Lemmy.zip, unlike some other instances) and anyone else will be able to subscribe to your community.
You can see all of the instances we've federated with by going here or clicking instances in the footer of the webpage.
Creating a community? Once you've created your community, you can advertise it via a couple of different communities dedicated to sharing new communties.
There is no problem with having similar communities across instances, as each can host its own discussions, but it may be a good idea to search for a community before creating it as you may find a group that has already done some of the legwork for you.
While this instance is primarily focussed around game and tech related communities, please don't feel restricted to that. Any topic is fine (and encouraged!) as long as it adheres to the general instance rules.
On Lemmy.zip, anyone can create a Community and become its moderator by default. It takes very little effort to create but requires a little bit of commitment to looking after it. You can always choose to remove yourself as moderator (and ideally hand it off to someone else) or delete it completely if needed.
- Funding
Lemmy.zip will never run ads, sell user data, or generate income in a way that isn't clear and agreed by the community.
Therefore if you're enjoying using Lemmy.zip please consider a small donation to help us keep going for the longer term.
You can see mod actions via the this link or by clicking modlog at the bottom of the page.
- Mobile Applications
We have a dedicated mobile/tablet site for those who don't want to download an app. This is a webapp and can be saved to your phone's home screen for easy access.
You can navigate to this site by going to m.lemmy.zip
If you'd prefer a native app, a full list of apps for every platform can be found by clicking here.
An alternative website is also here, where you can filter by platform or type: lemmyapps.netlify.app/
These should all work with Lemmy.zip without any issues.
- Joining Lemmy.zip
Currently there are no restrictions on joining this server. Anyone is free to join as long as they continue to follow the rules in the sidebar.
Please interact with Lemmy after you've joined. The more interactions, the better Lemmy will be (plus, it helps out Lemmy.zip too!)
- Help or Support
If you ever feel you need help or support while on Lemmy.zip, or you've seen something that isn't right or makes you feel uncomfortable, you can send Sami or Demigodrick a message and we will confidentially help. We both have secure messaging links in our profile if you'd rather message with encryption, or you can send an email to hello@lemmy.zip and we'll respond that way. We're always here to help.
- Thank you!
Thank you for joining Lemmy.zip. Please remember, the most important thing is that you enjoy yourself!

5 anni fa veniva condiviso il primo post in questo nostro Social federato. Un buon traguardo per un progetto autogestito.

Il y a donc un 4ème Poilu dans l' #Oise !! C'est un mâle et je ne sais pas comment il s'appelle. Il a débarqué ce matin quand j'étais dans mon bus pour partir à Paris ! Je me suis dépêchée de rentrer pour le rencontrer ! On a repéré son propriétaire, je pense qu'il va rester un peu ! Il est super mignon !
Les Poilu.e.s vont avoir besoin d'ajustement. Mais honnêtement, tout à l'heure, tout se passait bien. Et puis le nouveau a vraiment l'air content d'avoir trouvé des potes !
I don't think fedex actually wants to *deliver* packages. I think they want to move them between cities and have you pick them up yourself.
I currently have a package coming that requires an "indirect signature", which their website states "the recipient can sign for the package electronically through fedex delivery manager". Delivery manager tells me that I simply click on a shipping notification and click on "Sign for a package". The shipping notification says "This package can no longer be signed online... blah blah blah".
Meanwhile, the AI bot in the corner is suggesting I can pick up the package at a fedex location. Fuck you. Bring my shit to my house. That's the fucking job. The nearest location requires a 25 mile round trip drive.
So, fedex sucks for me and the GOP wants to kill my access to the Postal Service. UPS is the "good" option, but I'm not holding my breath on that continuing.
Epilogue: FedEx showed up right in the middle of their delivery window, which is a truly shocking occurrence. Dude handed me my package and, DID NOT ask for a signature, even though everything online seemed to indicate that I would absolutely NEED to be home to provide one. I assume he just scribbled something on his digital pad, but I'm really curious whether he would have done the same if I wasn't home? It's all just fucking random.
this is a v important rant. in some ways i dont think anything will bring this country together like how fucking impossible it is to rely on the usps now, and how expensive and barely-better the private options are.
@benda That's absolutely it. I think that's why they're slow-walking their destruction of the postal service. I think they realize it's one of the live wires where they can't afford to move too quickly, lest the public lose their shit.
I will NEVER forgive Biden for not taking decisive action against DeJoy. I've heard all the explanations why he "couldn't" and... (Gestures vaguely toward the Trump Whitehouse)... Yeah bro, no one would ever let a president get away with firing the people on a supervisory board because they refuse to fire a guy who is there to literally destroy the agency he's been placed in charge of. **That** would be overreach... 🤦♂️
those narratives are verifiable bull shit. biden had the opportunity in the first year and a half of his term to put THREE members on the board of governors. we only needed *two* of those three to vote in favor of getting rid of dejoy. biden, in his infinite incompetence, put one republican, and one "democrat" who was in favor of dejoy's 10 year bankruptcy plan. sorry, this is a topic that pisses me off hugely because the msm reports on it picking and choosing which facts to report in order to construct a narrative that dem leadership isnt exactly the same as the republican party. at this point, biden/dnc are just as much to blame for the impending failure of the usps as trump/republicans.
@benda Oh, absolutely. It was obvious bullshit from the word go. It's painfully apparent that the "money assholes" are salivating at the prospect of stripping several government sectors of every dime. One party is busy crying that they just can't seem to do anything about it, and the other party is trying to convince us that we'll actually be happier without. USPS, medicare, social security, the park service... you fucking name it, they all want to strip mine it and sell us a watered down replacement.
the dam will break. and i think fairly soon. the only question is whether we'll be dumb enough to be at one anothers' throats or go for the assholes that ran this ship into the ground.
