I created a space for people to make connections and learn from each other. I call it Grok.Town and plan to start up a Lemmy instance at that domain, but for now it’s a space on Matrix with a few rooms to chat and get to know one another. Check it out @ matrix.to/#/#groktown:matrix.org

This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. View on remote instance

You mean "arbitrary", not "random" right?

I don't see how a randomly chose picture from reddit would be something the user would likely be interested in.

That makes more sense than my initial interpretation, but why the random aspect at all?

[Request] I would like to take over an abandoned community

!obscuremedia doesn't have much traction but I'm trying to change that and there are a good amount of subscribers. Unfortunately the only mod seems to have created the community, made one post, and not returned in the ten months since. I've messaged them but I'm not hopeful they'll ever come back to Lemmy to see it....

I recommend making an account on the instance of the community you're moderating as owner due to wierd federation effects on moderation actions.

No one has problems with not backing up their data until they find themselves in a position where backing up their data could have saved a lot of grief.

Incentives matter in any system. The incentives are perverse right now.

Academic fraud is in no way a thing that is limited or even disproportionately prevalent in China. Perhaps the flavors of it are biased to one form or another in different cultures, but don't mistake that for more or less fraud in that culture. Perhaps you notice more from China simply because there are simply more Chinese people in the world than any other nation behind Indian people in India.
