Very cool, thank you for the detailed breakdown that was helpful!

Good note, I didn't notice that in the original post. I edited the title

Huh

https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/motel

Blend of motor +‎ hotel, from the original Motel Inn of San Luis Obispo in California, USA, established in 1925 by Arthur Heineman (1878–1974).

While looking for a term to describe the original post, and came across this. I'm going to make a separate post about it

Oh this would be amazing, I was using a third party site.

Would it be possible to get a similar one for the dearrowed version? That was a complaint I got once but didn't have an easy a solution for: https://lemmy.ca/post/31890393

Found an article with a few more

I was remembering a different video, but this one was also funny:

Jump to 2:55 for the bit that the title is referring to

There was the attack on the Internet archive recently, are there any good options out there to help mirror some of the data or otherwise provide redundancy?

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 73 points 1 week ago (6 children)

One option that I've heard of in the past

https://archivebox.io/

ArchiveBox is a powerful, self-hosted internet archiving solution to collect, save, and view websites offline.

Honestly that might be more helpful.

I sometimes see the overwritten reddit comments when searching for a topic, and I wish that the comment would link to the person's new account (wherever they may be) in addition to the usual blurb on whg they aren't active on reddit anymore

Often when I'm using it, it will spit out some random blurb about privacy in addition to the response. This time I asked something along the lines of

What did this message mean

{Quote}

It answered, and then it added this

However, the message also includes a detailed explanation about the privacy measures in place when using a specific AI language model through DuckDuckGo.

The explanation states that all user chats are completely anonymous, and DuckDuckGo does not record any user chats. Any metadata that could potentially identify the user's device is removed before sending prompts to the model provider. This means that even if the model provider stores chats, they cannot be traced back to the user.

The explanation also specifies that personal information typed directly into the chat cannot be tied back to the user, and that chats will not be used to train or improve models. Furthermore, chats are not sent to any third-party, and are only sent anonymously to the model provider.

The message ends with a reminder about the appropriate use of code blocks in markdown, emphasizing that they should only be included in programming-related contexts.

I assume they wanted their version to offer information about itself on top of the models regular output, downside being the extra hallucinations
