"I don't care if rus or china".. Guys you really don't think. If you lived in Ukraine, would you care about giving russians address where you live? Then why you don't care giving them your data, when you live on the west? Because we are not physically fighting rus/china doesn't mean we are not on the war with them. I said it is great Deepseek is possible to host locally, but no one cares, everyone use their app anyway, and this is the problem, as it is even worse than using ClosedAI.
I want Russia to win (and it will) and I want China to win (and it will). My use of an LLM isn't going to make one lick of difference one way or the other, but if it did, I would help it in any and every conceivable way.![emoji xi-lib-tears xi-lib-tears](https://hexbear.net/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hexbear.net%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F1f79bf1f-391a-4a97-8dc5-5718dd23ef95.png)
You are a fucking nerd for thinking you have more "privacy" to lose to China than to the profiteering, rent-seeking silicon valley bastards who are already and right now exploiting the fuck outta you.
I'd better be a "fucking nerd" that invented all that shit that you use now, than a fucking idiot who doesn't ever use brain and probably lives in a fucking america. But I like how so many kids think communism is good, when they live in a democratic freedom country. Read some books, use this technology for something else instead bullshit, as you don't know the world yet.
Lol, I have been reading theory for almost 2 decades now, kid.
I even taught at a community college for a while.
Listen, this is clearly a case of "every accusation a confession" - that is to say, you are well aware of your own naivete and so you project it onto others as a defense mechanism. Fortunately, there is a cure for that sort of ignorance, and in large part it does indeed involve reading theory and exposing yourself to perspectives that may seem frightening due to your having been awash in a sea of propaganda all your life. Come join our Das Kapital reading group on hexbear (hosted by the awesome @Cowbee@hexbear.net) and maybe learn a little something about the real world you're so painfully unaware of.
Thanks for the shout-out, comrade! For anyone that wants to join, we are a month in so it will take a bit of aggressive reading to catch-up, but we do have archived links for past threads, both for this year and last year's, so you can go through those threads and get up to speed.
