The state of current YT where you can search for literally anything and will get 3 semi-related results followed by an infinite scroll of completely unrelated political rage rabbit hole content. Their algorithm is so chalked.

Actually I take it back, having seen your opinions I think it is in both of our best interests if you continue not voting.

Keep bridge burning instead of building too, let me know how that works out for you.

You’re not like them, voting isn’t what won those rights.

Lol this is such a comical statement it’s clear I’m talking to someone who can’t be reasoned with.

But you know what, keep doing what you do, don’t vote. I’ll be comfortable knowing you have literally no influence on anything because you’re too dumb to use the means provided to you to make a change.

sure man your way is working no problem

Lol my way is to vote for the best of two candidates which does work and has objectively led to progress, if slowly. Just over 100 years ago we had legalized segregation and women couldn’t vote. 200 years ago we had literal slavery.

By comparison your suggestion is to not vote if you don’t get your perfect candidate. Do you want to point to a single example in the 200 year history of the US, or any country for matter, where that worked?

Lol it’s the other way around. The “thousand small cuts” leading to Trump winning is that conservatives will consistently vote for a candidate as long as they support a single issue they care about (such as abortion). And liberals will consistently not vote for a candidate if they don’t support an issue they care about (such as Palestine).

People like you being ok with fracturing the left because of ideological puritanism versus the right being willing to coalesce around a despot who throws them a few bones is why Trump won.

Sorry but if you live in the US, then for 200+ years there have been two candidates each election with a chance of winning. If you wanted to cut off your nose to spite your face by not voting for Biden, which objectively only helped Trump, then congrats, you made everything worse for everyone. And that includes the Israel-Palestine conflict.

But Biden wouldn’t give me everything exactly the way I wanted! Guess I’ll just throw my vote away so Trump can win 🙄

Realistically what is the worst thing China is doing with your private data? Selling it? If you’re not a Chinese National, at least you don’t fall under their jurisdiction.

If you’re a U.S. citizen, with all the tech oligarchs cozying up to the current administration, I’d be a lot more concerned with Facebook/Twitter/Etc collecting your data.

Yeah the article doesn’t mention any actual use cases, which means they could be using it for anything from generating basic scripts to automate simple tasks (fine) to using it to replace voice actors (very bad).

Just saying that X percent of companies use AI in some capacity really does not mean much.

Lukewarm take: mods had valid grievances, but were dumb as fuck to unilaterally make a major decision without even consulting the community beforehand, which is definitely worse imo.

It reminds me of so many subreddits where overactive mods decide they know what’s best for their subreddit and impose rules that would never pass a basic yes/no poll, demonstrating they don’t actually care about the community. Mods are supposed to be janitors (not an insult, just statement of fact), but too often act with the presumed arrogance of “leaders”.

Edit to add: this is what the mods should have done:

1. Make a stickied thread with examples of users being banned or comments being removed unjustly
2. Ask users if the above justifies moving to a new host, and if so ask which one

It’s that simple

“Wei Wu” has an avatar that looks like it was AI generated, not to mention they’re verified on twitter and they talk exactly like a western person doing a Chinese caricature. Seems fake too me.

Yeah these people clearly have (many) other options for housing.

Honestly not sure why this article even exists if this is the most egregious example of price gouging they could find.

I stg every time UFO Reddit gets worked up, it ultimately has the most mundane explanation which everyone forgets as soon as the next thing comes up.

This is Rocket [League!]

Cryptocurrencies: higher transaction fees, slower transaction times, and zero consumer protections compared to just using a credit card.

On the other hand, crypto is also terrible for the environment.

Republicans love to forget that as governor, Reagan was very pro gun control when black people started arming themselves.
