Yep, it’s classic. They might as well be a bot, their behavior is very predicitible. It’s not even worth ever replying to them, they use canned responses and never change their behavior for the better.

Oh, and they always make sure to downvote anyone calling them out, naturally. Luckily I can’t see them as my instance disables downvotes, but I’m sure my comment has at least one downvote (and it’ll be from them).

Into the trash, then.

Might as well be.

Oh look, it’s like the 13th cm0002 spam account that I’m blocking, no exaggeration. I thought I got them all, especially because cm0002 claimed elsewhere that they would only use “a few” to repost and has told several users just that. They make it impossible to block their accounts on purpose. They don’t ban evade, they block evade, and when confronted give some line about “promoting smaller instances”, even though they never post to their account’s home instance.

And before they reply with their bs about only reposting .ML content, they repost shit from all instances. If they truly cared only about reposting .ML content, they wouldn’t need almost two dozen accounts to do so.

This is the sixth time this has been posted somewhere on the fediverse, and yet, cm0002 posted it again.

Maybe, but I think it’s important to note that LLMs can hallucinate web results just the same. You can give them a specific web page and they’ll sometimes spit out things that don’t exist on the page, especially if you’re doing it to correct a mistake the model made.

Honestly, a lot of it is what I used to watch on YouTube. Pretty much anything from Sam @ Wendover Productions (including Half as Interesting, Jet Lag, and some of his Nebula exclusive series such as Extremities), Practical Engineering, Pinely, Chubbyemu, Bright Sun Films/Travels, stuff like that. Day Pass is an exclusive that comes to mind.

Sometimes Nebula uploads have extras even if they upload to both YT and Nebula. I like Nebula because it allows me to get away from Google while still supporting the creators I like from there. It’s pretty cheap, all things considered.

I do the same with William Osman’s Sauce+ (based on floatplane but for engineer creators).

Charlie Kirk sure has been quiet about this law named after him. I wonder why?

Nebula is great.
