Of course, its just an open source LLM that you can run on open source software like Ollama or LoLLMS

I was the founder of r/TIHI in a past life and u/spez removed all of us moderators because we weren‘t opening the sub as part of our protest.

I them requested them to take down the subs title picture and logo which I created and they didn‘t even bother.

No, but a lot of them are apologists for tech bros.

They probably don‘t want to loose the incel people in their audience

I think locally only, LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice.

There was a German social network a few years ago that did exactly that (before Facebook was available in German)

They had SchülerVZ for kids/teens, then they had StudiVZ for university students and finally they had MeinVZ for adults. The problem was, that they weren’t interconnected at all apart from the option to move your account to the next platform. So if you were just starting to study but you still had friends that were in school, you could’t keep in touch with them.

Ummm, I have seen the documentary „For all mankind“ on Apple TV and I‘m pretty sure that multiple people died on mars already.

The German government already has their own mastodon instance on social.bund.de

Much better alternative to a EU funded social network, as this would automatically drive critics to the assumption, that politicians are controlling the narrative and deleting critical content. Also supports the development of open source and self hosted alternatives this way.

Hope you grounded your hardware to the wood.

My main server cabinet at my parents house. I have one old Synology for backups, one home built Xpenology for streaming and one small server with old gaming hardware for steam link, but its barely running anymore. Theres one HP server with 2x Xeon E5 and 128GB missing in the photo that I got for 100€ at an auction, which I use for occasional game server hosting.

At home I have this setup, my main synology NAS and a thinkcentre with an i7 and 16GB of ram for Minecraft and FiveM.

Those were the basic entry level configurations needed to run Windows Vista with Aero effects.
