Sadly, the lock-in is pretty extreme... as is user inertia. Office 365 has made the problem worse as well, even if you have something like OnlyOffice that does a good job of compatibility with Office, it can't sync with OneDrive.

If you collaborate with non-technical people, they will expect you to work in Office formats, and won't even entertain discussion of any alternative.

Yeah, this is one of the many things that annoys me about AI discourse.

"We can use it to solve climate change!"

We already technically know how to solve climate change, but politics makes doing that impossible.

And, no, AI can't "fix" politics. We're going to have to figure that out by ourselves.

Why would you have zero expectations that he'll win? Were you not around in 2016?

We're not in a movie. Climate change isn't going be solved by one brilliant scientist. It's not even a scientific/technology problem at this point, it's a political one.

How long before it's illegal to hack LLMs?

Depends where you live. Plenty of countries with high % of renewables

I wouldn't call it "surreal" at all, I'd call it "completely expected" given who runs that platform

Obsessing over brain size and the hip width of women is a big eugenics / white supremacist thing... the kind of thing the nazis were really into... what a surprise to see Musk spouting this kind of bullshit

Reading the comments in that thread made me realise how little I miss Reddit. The sub is RedditAlternatives and there's a whole lot of people in there whinging that people are talking about alternatives to Reddit. Lemmy has it's problems, but Reddit is toxic AF.

It's highly country specific... America's puritanical roots seem to still hold sway. Go to Western Europe and nudity is commonplace

We already had that evidence by the 1960s!
