If it helps, I read “sad” where it said “said”. 🤷‍♂️

Once again, my biggest complaint about this platform is the limitation on post length. The limits, in ways similar to Twitter when it rolled out, drive us toward snippy, pithy language usage. Anyone who cares a whit about language usage finds themselves immediately frustrated with the effective cens

For you AI geeks out there (or those casually curious about advancements in AI), China’s new “deepseek” model appears to be pretty incredible. Running it takes a lot of resources, and there are some solvable censorship problems, but its capabilities are incredible.

To follow my previous post (500 characters really isn’t enough):

Now who has a good recipe for pie? Cute cat video? Dad jokes? Pictures of beautiful landscape? I need things that calm me right now, not more hand-wringing. Please, I’m begging you.

This is me right now. I can’t do anything about it, sane people can’t do anything about it; nothing can be done about it. All we can do is watch and hope that a) it’s not as bad as we fear, and b) that there’s a mid-term correction.

Downloaded the iOS app for my iPad. It’s sized for phone-only. So for now the browser-based interface is the best. Prolly gonna install the app on my phone to see how things go.

So, blue sky it says. That intimates limitlessness, or at least no limits other than 500 characters. Hoping this place makes a worthwhile landing place. I note that the limit on Alt Text for images is 2000 characters. That might be interesting.
