I didn't know what the contexts behind all of this was, but after reading a bit it was all because of a stupid mod.
Holy fuck, only some sick fuck does this over a stupid videogame.
But the main lesson here is to never share any personal details to the internet. That's how they were able to SWAT him. You never know who is trying to fuck with you.
People are shit.
I can change china for the US in that sentence and it will still make sense
They can sue DeepSeek as much as we can sue openAI for scraping human generated content... this time though we got the model for ourselves, and not to squeeze profit
I don't have chance to dig all the details right now but here's the stuff
Madison/Suop is a small influencer, who at one point a few years back got hired by LMG. It didn't last long and she stopped appearing in videos, and then wasn't ever mentioned again by LMG.
People eventually suspected she wrote this anonymous Glassdoor review on 2022 and had quit.
Now when the first GN video on LMG came out, people pressured her to tell more about why she quit, and she came out with full details. . TLDR there was lots of bullying, harassment, sexist environment, unreasonable work pressure, etc.
Then LMG promised to investigate this whole thing and provide results. Fast forward a few months they posted these findings.
The keywords here is "unsubstantiated, no evidence, unfounded", etc. It's a very vague response and LMG can't say a clear yes or no because there was no evidence. Many of the abuse was verbal and not recorded anywhere, and because it had happened a few years back it could have been lost or removed...
So we as the audience are left with almost as much ambiguity as when this all started... If you compare both sides you can see why I still side with Madison's story:
Reasons to believe Madison
Reasons to believe LMG
Any shit thrown at LMG is good news to me, they deserve it after how dirty they treated Madison back then. They never properly addressed that either in the eyes of the audience...
I hated him less when he was just a reptilian, and not a tech bro reptilian
Status: Hired
There's a million ways to do anything when self hosting, so I'll just talk about what I have and if you interested just reply.
I only host a few services for now: Invidious, CloudTube, Redlib, FreshRSS. All of them as docker containers, this helps in quickly updating them and isolating their configurations. I have a few TB of disk space on the server itself that I can access through SMB3 shares, so I don't have a proper NAS yet. Probably will do so at some point when I need it.
As for hardware, I'm using an HP mini-pc with
This mini-pc can literally be opened by removing 1 screw, so hardware changes/cleaning can't get easier. I installed Debian on it
As for remote access, I use twingate instead of self-hosted wireguard. Mostly because I'm using my ISPs router and they like to reset it whenever they want. I'm also not confortable opening ports on the router. Twingate covers my use case completely so I never went back to this. I can map a custom domain to the server's IP and this meant I just switch on twingate when I'm out and can access it seamlessly.

I still don't think he's the same guy who shot the CEO, it's clearly for me a different person in the photos...
However, at this point this changes nothing of what's going to happen, anyone caught for this would be facing the same charges. Let's hope the jury feels as we all do and lets him walk
The only thing I wanna see is the ElonJet guy back in a large platform, so that everyone gets easy access to the muskrat's location. That gets him specially angry as we've seen many times
Exactly, I feel the mindset of 'line must go up or you die' is really ingrained in people's minds. Even if everyone leaves for something else lemmy will still be here, slowly getting better with updates and time.
Doesn't matter how many people use it. As long as even 1 person wants to use lemmy it will be here...
