The reason I wouldn’t give advice if you didn’t want it because unwanted unsolicited advice tends to be useless and annoying for most people. If you didn’t want the advice I wouldn’t waste my time.

My advice is to focus on being able to organize your thoughts and write them out in a cohesive structured way.

This helps you:

1. Express yourself in a clear, understandable, and perhaps persuasive way.
2. Organize your own personal wants, needs, and desires introspectively.

Both of these are important life skills that are extremely beneficial. Using a LLM to organize and clarify positions is like using a crutch when you should be in physical therapy. On top of this using a LLM completely erases any personality in your writing and replaces it with corpo style speak.

Practicing organizing and expressing your ideas (like physical therapy) can be hard and sometimes painful. But you get better.

Using a LLM is like refusing to go to physical therapy and using crutches for the rest of your life by choice. Easier in the short term but bad for your own quality of life long term.

Places like lemmy are great for writing practice. Rambling nonsense is pretty universally downloaded. Lemmy forces you to organize and classify what you are thinking and why.

If you want to get started I would recommend the basic “5 Paragraph Essay” structure. In the case of a basic lemmy comment take those principles and make it a 5 sentence structure.

I hope this helps.

Would you want a piece of good faith, sincere advice? If not I can drop things.

Do you always have ideas in the middle of the night and want to post them only to have an RSI flare up and no laptop nearby and decide to use ChatGPT to write your posts?

It’s not just this response. All of your posts read the same way.

Like using AI as a writing assistant is fine and all. But the posts you copy paste over are mostly LLM structured arguments.

Why are you using ChapGPT to make comments on lemmy? What’s the point?

Exactly.

No problem. I just thought I had covered that when I said:

That’s some incredible stuff. Now days you can use things like XCP-ng to do the same but VMware was ahead of the pack for a decade.

They started dying when they were squeezed between cloud hyper scalars and the cheaper alternative hypervisors that finally had caught up.

This being said I don’t think even in 2025 proxmox and things like vsphere are comparable. XCP-ng I do think is though. It’s open source and matches features.

You’re not wrong in 2025. But VMware was able do it in 2003.

There is a major difference between running a vm on your desktop and orchestrating a fleet of highly available virtual machines. Just one example might be vmotion. You can move a virtual machine from one physical host to another in real time with 0 interruption to services running on that host.

That’s some incredible stuff. Now days you can use things like XCP-ng to do the same but VMware was ahead of the pack for a decade.

Then the corpse was bought by Broadcom who is currently trying to milk it before the body completely rots.

Can you think of a more just war?

1. Russia promises territorial integrity in exchange for giving up nuclear weapons.

2. Ukraine says yes and gives up nuclear weapons.

3. Russia and Ukraine agree and sign a treaty.

Russia invades Ukraine?!?!

I personally can not think of a more just war.

It’s a defensive war against an imperialist aggressor who signed a treaty promising not to invade in exchange for giving up nuclear weapons.

Open and shut case.

It’s as close to perfectly ethical as weapon sales can be. Ukraine defending itself is an open and shut case for a just war. Particularly so because Ukraine does not target civilian homes etc.

I mean if you use the Marxist/Leninist definition of left then obviously not. But I mean left leaning in terms of the societal understanding.

Alas I have been shown to be wrong! If not for my womanly ways I would have been the wiser!

EDIT: Look at the responses to this comment for the proof.

100%

It’s really bad and lemmy is really in denial.

Sexism here is much worse than it was on Reddit.

It feels like 2008 Reddit here sexism wise, except instead of Ron Paul libertarians tooting their horns everywhere we have heavy tracked vehicle enthusiasts.

I did hope lemmy having a left leaning culture would help but it does not.

Try making any post that focuses on situations uniquely or disproportionally experienced by women and you get mostly “everyone has that why think about women” or “what about men” or “men have it worst” responses.
