That's a good point. Rich keep getting richer, poor keep getting poorer.

That's what I'm talking about! This needs to be everywhere. Funny though, my local utilities already has it marked on their agenda to "discuss" these types of solar setups. They say they "may not be safe to use."

Actually the reality is that utility companies stand to lose money from tech like this. So hopefully my community and others can stand up for this tech.

Good points. I'll also admit I have a fear of electricity so I'd totally be scared. But my local utilities are not saying this because they are worried about our well being, they are worried about making less money.

I want this, but I have too many single board things. Guess I better invent a new use for it! :)

I host my own AI, mostly for testing and because I wanted something that was mine and mine alone. I use Ollama and run models like Llama, Mistral, and Qwen. I honestly don’t use it much, but I wanted to have my own setup just in case online services go down or become less available. It’s part of my whole “own everything I use” mantra that I’ve been on lately.

I’ll keep downvoting as long as you keep posting, thanks friend. Edit: Who’s stopping? Not me

Oh, good to see that you are doubling down and you won't "wobble" on your serial downvoting. It's funny tho, you know some people get so obsessed with others that they "wobble" and think of new ways to follow their stalker.

So I guess we should be glad that you won't be a strange mr. "wobble" lolololol

I love that you are this annoyed. My own stalker! Yes!! This is great! Hey so when you "wobble" into bed at night, do you go to sleep as angry as you are when you are stalking people on Lemmy? 🤣

I'm really hoping this goes as schedule! We need to get back to being number one with our space stuff.

If you don’t care, then why make such a fuss, and why keep following me around? Your voting history is public: https://lemvotes.org/user/[email protected]

I’m genuinely curious. When you get this focused on someone, do you recognize that it’s unhealthy, or do you convince yourself it’s normal? It’s weird, but I guess I should be flattered.

How often do you think about me? It must be a lot, since you keep showing up and accusing random people of being my “alts.” Every time someone posts something you don’t like, do you wonder if it’s secretly me?

And if I really were all these different accounts like you claim, what exactly do you think you’re stopping? By your own theory, I could just move to another instance and use a new name whenever I wanted. I'm wondering, how many people do you think I am? Don't be coy, go ahead and give a number. I wanna know! This is fascinating to me!

So even inside your own bizarre theory, you’re fighting a losing battle. Does that ever occur to you while you’re following me around?

You mean like how you will keep following me around and downvoting everything I post regardless of content? Serial downovoting is why I had to ban you in the first place. Your voting history is public: https://lemvotes.org/user/[email protected]

Seems kinda like you’re targeting people who you disagree with, regardless of the content they post.

Let's let everyone see that you've admitted your serial downvoting campaign against me today:

This would be such an awesome find to come across. I should have went to school for archaeology! lol Thanks for this OP!

I’ll keep downvoting as long as you keep posting, thanks friend.

Oh ok, so you are admitting you are serial downvoting and it's not based on content. Ok, cool. I knew you were doing that already, so glad to see you admit it for every one to see.

Oh, so you are just trying to target me, is what you are saying? So you are just being personal, and not downvoting based on content.

You seem to be targeting me because I banned you for serial downvoting, which was against the rules of the community I mod. And now you are doing it this community. That's the hill you wanna go down on?! lol

Now that the pattern has been pointed out, people can see what has been going on. So the choice is yours. You can keep serial downvoting and keep showing that pattern, or you can move on.

Serial downvoting is against the spirit of most community guidelines, and in this case, it was against the rules of the community.

And yes, let's keep that link up so everyone can see: https://lemvotes.org/user/[email protected]

EDIT: He magically stopped once I called him out on it. Wow, imagine that! LMAO

EDIT 2: Nope, he couldn't resist and started up again. LMAO

That's a great model and it's the one I use too.

I hope he sees your downvoting campaign. Because your voting history is public: https://lemvotes.org/user/[email protected]

Hmmm, seems kinda like you're targeting certain people who you disagree with, regardless of the content they post. That's not very cool.

Oh, and hey, we may as well let everyone see that you are admitting your serial downvoting campaign:

Hi, @[email protected]. I know you're against helping the Ukraine, so get ready to start your serial downvoting campaign and vote every single one of my posts here, so every can see what you're doing.

Ohhhh.ok, ok. Thank you!

Where is this from?

I saw the article and thought, maybe I'll be able to build one. Um, no. Awesome article anyway. Great find, OP

The link you posted was about someone you think is me, allegedly creating a bot army to downvote someone else you also think is my alt. Did you even read your own link?

You keep saying I’m trying to “control a narrative,” but what narrative? Posting random news articles in a general news community is not astroturfing.

You also said I “suck at astroturfing.” If that’s true, then what exactly is the problem? If my supposed alts are terrible at it and even downvote each other, what would be the point?

I checked the community I mod, and I don’t see any shared upvotes between the accounts you named as my alts. So again, where is the astroturfing?

At this point, your claim seems to be that I’m using alts to post random news in a general news community. Even if that were true, why would that be such a serious issue?

What narrative do you think is being pushed here? This really sounds like a personal vendetta you have because I banned you for serial downvoting, which by the way, is not allowed in my community. You need to move on. lol

This is not on-topic or helpful for this thread or this community.

Ok, you can ring that bell as long as you want. I realize you're obsessed with me, but you're not making sense.

You’re accusing me of being several different people who argue with each other, hold different views, and even downvote each other. The link you gave me says someone was downvoting the same accounts you claim are my alts.

So what exactly is the theory here?

Astroturfing means fake accounts working together to push the same message. But the accounts you listed oppose each other many times. Why would one person create multiple accounts just to argue with themselves and downvote themselves?

That would be the opposite of astroturfing.
