@Pendragon I rebuilt a 2GB-of-RAM VPS last night, for a public service I own. WordPress is like 4x bigger on disk now. :^(

@Pendragon 'member when you could have 20 open browser tabs with 1GB of RAM?

@feld lol! They can argue one side or another about whether we should build out LLMs and use them for all thought until we can't write a birthday card without help.

But that has nothing to do with the fact that the BUGS EXIST, and there are many possible ways to find exploits and we don't know who has secretly developed what methods and what exploits. The existence of exploits is not an LLM problem.

@i @siina the software should give the end-user more control over their account. And by that I mean scripting like Thunderbird. Locally executed with the results pushed to server storage if needed.

Let the user script how they want content to be filtered and tagged, and then admins won't be tempted to go nuclear and ban servers from a list with no known reason.

@i @siina I just feel sad for anyone using a server whose sysadmin subscribes to those lists that have no reasoning or audit trail. If they want to live in misery, it's on them though.

@toiletpaper so @raintrees are we changing the Christian Bible too? Or just the religions you don't like?

@siina I remember in the early days of the fediverse I was annoyed that you could reply to someone who blocked you, and your server would never tell you it's impossible for them to read it. I thought at the time "couldn't you at least keep a local list of failures and tell me next time?"
