  1. Should be widely read!

    I heard it on Cory Doctorow's podcast. "Hell Is Other People"

    "Not everyone feels this way. A subset of humanity is committed to a world where everyone else takes orders from them. We have different names for these people. We call the majority of them “toddlers,” but we call the others “bosses” or “tyrants.” "

    "These latter two groups ... are also among the people most excited about #AI. What’s more, the more powerful these people are, the more credulous and enthusiastic they are about AI."

    "Among #bosses, the most enthusiastic boosters are #tech #overlords. These #billionaires will not shut up about AI, and, tellingly, the thing they’re most excited about is the fact that AI might let them fire #programmers and replace them with #chatbots."

  6. That is a great rule IMHO

    You don't go to a gynocologist to get nose or throat problems fixed. You go to a KNO specialist

    KNO = keel neus oor (NL)

  11. Currently reading freebsd-forums-rules.38922 located in the link.

    I've never encountered a forum with so many rules, don't and instant ban warnings, which made me decide to lurk for more than a month with absolute zero posts.

    You literally need to read for about an hour before posting to a sub-forum which also needs reading it's rule set

    People must have messed up a lot for the moderators to put up so much required reading.

    My time on the forum has thus been very brief, because I refuse to f#ck up and piss of a moderator with a rule breaker.

    Two strikes means two written warnings and a third means all your posts will be filtered by a human before being released.

    Before your posts are allowed on the forum as a greenhorn a human literally needs to read vet and verify them before realeasing them in the wild. There is a minumum ammount of 10 or 20 posts before they are sure you understand the rules.

    Is there anyone here who has gone though this process of the filtered initial posts?
