I am but a cog in a machine. A lazy one though.
Have to admit that no, haven’t used Ryanair since 2019 sorry :(
I’m not on beehaw but love you too and love beehaw aswell!
I’m from Europe so my experiences are mostly from here:
My experience is that if you check in immidiately when you can and being at the airport early enough will be enough to get on. It’s usually the late bees that get notified of overbooking issue.
Just check in asap when it becomes available and be at the airport early enough to be at the top of the line during boarding. I always check in 24/48 hours before the flight and have only once been notified of overbooking and possibility of not getting onboard. I immidiately went through security and was waiting for boarding close to the gate - got in.
Edit: also have only once selected seats in advance, didn’t do so on Ryanair flight.
And this has a yet another bad side effect: my company has not hired new young workers to train because there is no need - all the retirees keep coming back when they are needed. There is a huge issue with finding a job for young people because there is enough old people working still.
It’s also about the barrier of entry. Discord has a barrier, but it is not high. The fact that this platform is their commercial product ensures that issues are minimal (well…). For non tech-savvy people and those who don’t have time / don’t want to put in time to troubleshoot and figure things out this is the reason they go for these commercial solutions.
Just my observations from trying to switch friends and family over to free open source alternatives. It was a huge hassle to even get people to try out and move to signal, but signal has lowered the barrier quite a bit and now it’s stable (was not always as fast and stable as now).
The level of fear is tied to the version of joker that they post. If it’s the comic version, we’re all screwed.
Seems like it worked for me. Last I checked my deleted account’s comments are still up and display replaced text.
I overwrote my comments with a message that clearly states why I overwrote my comments and deleted my account.

Uh oh! Hmm… well Bing chat does have three settings for “answer accuracy”: creative, balanced and strict. Don’t know if ChatGPT has something similar? I usually leave it on balanced or strict and haven’t noticed anything weird, but I haven’t really tested its limits either. Give it a go!
I usually double check, especially with critical cases. With online searches the most useful part of bing chat has been the references which it adds to the answer which I usually go check out (but the summary is still nice from bing). It’s quite clear when it doesn’t know the answer, but often the references still help pointing me towards resources!
Overall it is not doing my job for me, but it speeds up the process significantly. Definitely made me feel like my job is still secure because the questions need to be very specific and still require double checking.
Edit: I’ve been so curious about ChatGPT. Do you notice a significant difference between Bing and ChatGPT itself? I did notice bing does sometimes atleast admit that it does not know. I heard ChatGPT just boldy gives an answer even if it doesn’t know it.
Of course, no problem! The best example of its usefulness is that I can open a PDF in edge and ask bing to use the PDF to answer my questions. I often get documentation PDF’s that are 2000 - 5000 pages long and searching requires me to still read separate chapters to put the info I need together.
Another example: I work in industrial automation, searching for information by googling is a pain and very rarely gives me good results unless I really put a lot of time going through forum threads and manufacturer’s links that most of the time just ask you to contact support. Bing chat has been a life saver by finding answers from these forums and sometimes manufacturer’s pages which are several layers deep on their webpage and don’t always show up in google search.
Yup. Wanted to add that I’m glad there is modlog on on these platforms and that they are visible to everyone. Love the transparency.
I believe the developers on Kbin and Lemmy have moderation tools in their backlog. I think it will be interesting to see how they implement those and how it will work in the fediverse.
Like many others:
Edit: sorry for the rant on the last point. I know not every job is like that and I’m in the process of switching my field.
I’ve actually used bing a lot (never thought I’d say that) because I didn’t want to give away my phone number with ChatGPT registration (I know I know, bing/microsoft have more than enough of my info and data). Bing has been really useful so far for work.
Yup sadly you need to use the global search if you arw connecting your instance for the first time to a new community.
Each instance needs to first “connect” to a community on another instance for it to show up in their own “all communities” list.
The way you can connect a community to your instance is to be the first to subscribe to the community. To do this:
Get the real url of the community, go to the search icon -> paste the url, set search to “search all” and you should be able to find it and subscribe.
Now your instance should be federating with the community on another instance.
Edit: link to a comment I made awhile ago where I explain everything with a pic: https://lemmy.one/comment/237988
Lmao what is the original one for this??
