Back then they fled to Argentina, today to the US?

Thanks, my old german blog is https://paradies.jeena.net/ but the last post there is from 2012, so I’m not posting in German anymore. I stopped when I moved to Sweden and couldn’t share my blog with anyone, that’s when I started the new blog in English so that both the Germans and Swedes could at least in theory read it. Sadly I don’t have much time for well researched blog posts, so I only seldom post even there, but once in a while I do.

Swedish I never blogged in, even though it would have been good to improve my Swedish writing skills.

While this is true, to be fair to them your family and friends probably stopped posting years ago.

I wrote about the same frustration a while ago: https://jeena.net/my-facebook-feed

In that article I also mention https://www.facebook.com/?filter=friends&sk=h_chr which only shows posts of your friends which I used for some time as my bookmark for Facebook, but so few people post there that it’s just not enough for me to come back regularly.

Why do you write ‘sum’ and ‘Wut’ instead of some and what?

I am one of those who spun up his Lemmy/PieFed instance so this post was to get help finding those “AI bros” somewhere, the federated search is not very helpful yet.

I looked through their local communities but I’m not sure where you’ve seen any AI communities there https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/communities (I see some stable diffusion ones, but those are not related with my question).

Interestingly I was looking for a AI community so I could find a model which would run on my phone: https://piefed.jeena.net/post/373420 and I found one with help of that community.

I’m on a single user instance (as anyone interested can figure out quickly clicking on my username) which means there is no “All” only the things I subscribe to. Most of the new communities I find by subscribing to !newcommunities@lemmy.world

I did a search for AI and harness, agents, etc. on my instance but because it only shows what I’m already subscribed to it shows news articles and stuff, no discussions. I also us ed https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=AI which didn’t show any AI communities

But in the first row showed !asklemmy@lemmy.world and I thought, perhaps I should. But reading their Rule #5:

5. This is not a support community. It is not a place for ‘how do I?’, type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function. And it was a question about Lemmy itself - finding the right community to post my questions about AI - I didn’t want to break the rule and then the post would have been deleted quickly anyway.

This is where I remembered the !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world community and figured it’s in the name, so people will probably be fairly forgiving about the nature of the question, but boy was I wrong :D

Anyway, like I wrote further up https://piefed.jeena.net/post/372887#comment_5967551 I’m still happy I did post the question because there were people pointing me to the right direction and I could ask my burning question there and even gotten really good answers which solved my problem.

For all the negativity and downvotes I got for asking the question, I’m still happy that I did because you pointed me to the right direction, I asked my question there https://piefed.jeena.net/c/localllama@sh.itjust.works/p/373420/good-translation-models-which-fit-on-a-smartphone and I got really good answers, especially someone in https://piefed.jeena.net/post/373420#comment_5964474 pointing to https://github.com/DavidVentura/offline-translator which is a on device translation app and this app exposes an API (see ITranslationService.aidl) that other apps can use to request translations, so I can use it to get really good translation results for my SMS automatically without sending them to any cloud!

I was looking hard where it would fit in best ^^

I have my own single user instance, because I knew I didn’t want to be dependent on someone else to decide for me what I should and shouldn’t be able to interact with on the Threadyverse.

But that also means I have to actively subscribe to communities and don’t get the organic All feed populated by other people.

Perhaps there should be a Wikipedia page which collects information about those incidents similar to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_attempts_on_Adolf_Hitler

First about the bachelor, I did it from a similar situation, started when I was 30, best decision ever. Now I make more money and the job I have is so much more interesting.

About your dad, yeah that is scary and sad, I’m in a similar situation, but my dad is only 71 and it’s much worse than what you describe, I had a very hard time adjusting. As children we see our parents as strong and wise and then some day the decline starts and it’s shocking.

I remember in 1989, when we fled/immigrated from Poland to Germany as Spätaussiedler, we moved to Franconia which is in Bavaria. There were US military bases in every small city even those where there were effectively only 50k Germans lil5jving, they all had a US military base.

One of my middle school class mates was later dating one of the US soldiers and married him moved to the US and got a child only for her husband to be deployed to Irak and be killed there…

Anyway, slowly they were reducing the number of military bases after the Berlin wall fell and we stopped seeing US military constantly driving humvies and tanks through the villages we lived in.

Them reducing even more is a natural progression, after 80 years of occupation it really is time to go.

We have IPFS already, which is a federated file system which doesn’t depend on domains, but has content hashes. And we also have BitTorrent with magnet links, also independent of domains. So something similar could be implemented and I think it would be neat.

God Is Not Great - How Religion Poisons Everything

There are intellectual ways to frame it.

Also I have a very emotional podcast episode with a Jehovas Vittnesses surviver in Sweden: https://jeena.net/pods/18

I mean it makes sense, why would you vote for the copy if you can vote for the original?

Why are you so aggressively defending a false data collection method?

And what do you mean by “this website”?

You’re talking about a specific instance Lemmy.ml which isn’t even the biggest instance, but basically a tankie instance.

You should at least bring together the data of the biggest top 10 instances.

I also wonder how that website decides if I’m male or female.

He is clearly someone who wants power more than money. Money is just a way to get more power.
