Greetings Fellow Pioneers of the Fediverse!

Are you a digital nomad who has recently migrated from another platform? Or perhaps a curious explorer who's caught wind of Lemmy's potential? Have you just begun your journey into the vast and promising landscape of decentralization?

For those still navigating the complexities of our brave new decentralized platform, I highly recommend watching this video. It does a good job encapsulating some of the immense potential and foundational principles of The Fediverse.

Once you're up to speed, it's time to delve deeper w/ FOSAI:

Are you experiencing FOMO around emerging technologies? Maybe you're a hobbyist, researcher, or developer passionate about free and open-source projects?

If any of these resonate with you, congratulations! You've landed in the perfect hub for everything related to free and open-source artificial intelligence - a.k.a. FOSAI - a new, sub-movement of FOSS for AI-particular tech stacks and software implementation strategies/platforms.

At FOSAI, my aim is to keep you informed on the latest, most significant advancements in the rapidly evolving landscape of AI/LLM/Diffusion technologies. This endeavor is fueled by my genuine passion and hope for technology, not by clickbait, sensationalism, or social media rage-bait and disinformation campaigns this technology typically gets a bad rap for.

At the end of the day - I don't care how many (or how little) people are following the movement so long as the information I share is valued, true, and used to support a goal that will better your life (and others).

To know more about me and what drives this community, please check out my welcome message here

Eager to dive into the world of AI today? I recommend visiting my resource-packed FOSAI Nexus Post or getting acquainted with my Lemmy Crash Course to Free Open-Source AI.

Embracing the philosophy of FOSS, we envision a future where empowerment, creativity, and ethics intertwine seamlessly with technology. Where the human experience is enhanced by innovation, not detracted by it. We believe in a future that lets you experiment with AI in any of its stages easily and accessibly - no matter the cost.

Here, we believe in a future where anyone can work with democratized super intelligent software and platforms that are not controlled by a select few, but by a majority of many. Where you own your data, your technology, what you do with it (and everything between). A future where you are not monitored for every action. Where your data is not being sold to the highest bidder.

A future that is free, a future that is open. A future that is as bright as we make it out to be without compromising the truth of our reality and the direction of our species.

My hope with this community is to foster patience, optimism, and trust in one another. I want to collect and share truths, processes, information, and workflows that educate and enhance our lives, fostering personal growth, development, and change. Real change. Tangible change. Not just the change you have been dreaming for, but the change you deserve.

When posting here, all I ask of you is to Know Thyself, be prepared to engage with dialogue that is intellectually empathetic, and to share/document processes and knowledge that is empowering to others, no matter their walk of life, experience or technical prowess.

I ask you to know our community. Know the impact of the words you share in earnest and to trust in one another that the empathy in which you seek to support is already there.

If any of this resonates with you, aligns with your thoughts or values, or is interesting in general - please consider subscribing to /c/FOSAI [email protected]

I just bought a used Gateway Keyboard RT3602 and i have some questions about it. 1. When was it made? 2. Is it mechanical?

At first glance, this looks incredibly similar to something like the desktop of the Apple Lisa or early Mac OS. It’s easy to see why people might think that Apple sort of stole the graphical user interface from it’s rich neighbor Xerox. It’s not true, though.

Inactive Google Account Policy

A Google Account gives you Google-wide access to most Google products, such as Google Ads, Gmail, and YouTube, using the same username and password.

An inactive Google Account is an account that has not been used within a 2-year period. Google reserves the right to delete an inactive Google Account and its activity and data if you are inactive across Google for at least two years.

Google also reserves the right to delete data in a product if you are inactive in that product for at least two years. This is determined based on each product's inactivity policies.

How Google defines activity

A Google Account that is in use is considered active. Activity might include these actions you take when you sign in or while you’re signed in to your Google Account:

  • Reading or sending an email
  • Using Google Drive
  • Watching a YouTube video
  • Sharing a photo
  • Downloading an app
  • Using Google Search
  • Using Sign in with Google to sign in to a third-party app or service

Google Account activity is demonstrated by account and not by device. You can take actions on any surface where you’re signed in to your Google Account, for example, on your phone.

If you have more than one Google Account set up on your device, you’ll want to make sure each account is used within a 2-year period.

What happens when your Google Account is inactive

When your Google Account has not been used within a 2-year period, your Google Account, that is then deemed inactive, and all of its content and data may be deleted. Before this happens, Google will give you an opportunity to take an action in your account by:

  • Sending email notifications to your Google Account
  • Sending notifications to your recovery email, if any exists

Google products reserve the right to delete your data when your account has not been used within that product for a 2-year period.

December 1, 2023 is the earliest a Google Account will be deleted due to this policy.
