Not really, because I normally don’t even look at or register usernames unless I emphatically agree or disagree with a post. I’ve been doing this for years, first on forums, then on reddit and now here. I don’t want to be biased against the content of the message just because I like or dislike a particular poster, so I mostly ignore usernames altogether.
“Ozymandias Clock” would perhaps be a more fitting name…
Yes,and then the trans drag queens will start raping children with those joints and their BLT BBQ agenda! And the sun will go dark, and the milk in cows’ udders will go sour, and then banned books are going to rain from the sky, right Ron?
The anti-AI knee-jerk reactions can be extreme, I agree, but at the same time one of important features of Mastodon is that your feed is nor controlled by an algorithm in any way.
So when a company comes, takes those posts and screws with them to create an algorithm to show them, I understand people getting angry - at least some of them joined to be free of that exact thing…
The wildest part is that he’s surprised that Mastodon peeps would react negatively to their posts being scrapped without consent or even notification and fed into an AI model. Like, are you for real dude? Have you spent more than 4 seconds on Mastodon and noticed their (our?) general attitude towards AI? Come the hell on…
The Bethesda of old is long dead. After the disappointment that was Starfield, it will take multiple rave reviews and watching a few streamers playing on Twitch for me to even consider giving them any money. And I sure as hell will not be paying for goddamned mods, not now and not ever. Eff that and eff the greedy assholes that now run Bethesda.
Yet another childish tantrum? Wow, is it another day ending with “y” already? How time flies…
Do it you pathetic spoiled manchild, stop flapping your gums and actually bloody do it.
Oh they probably will, but after Starfield I’m not going to bother buying it, even if it comes with free creation paid mod credits…
Riiiight. And, pray tell Adobe, why in the everloving fuck woul you ever need to “review” private content that’s not posted anywhere? Stop acting like you’re the goddamned pre-crime agency from Minority Report and keep your dirty paws off stuff people are creating privately.
You are providing tools, and that’s it. I can do horrible, illegal shit with my drill, but it doesn’t give Black&Decker any right to break into my house to do random checks and see if I’m drilling through kneecaps instead of wooden planks…
Eating out of stress or boredom instead of when I’m actually hungry. I am getting better, but still, sometimes work pisses me off so much it’s back to angrily stuffing whatever food I have on hand into my gaping maw…
If teachers could brainwash kids to the point of changing their sexual orientation, wouldn’t all schoolchildren become well-read, polite and clean well before they turn trans or gay?
A safety can opener that doesn’t create any sharp edges, like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_mLxyIXpSY (a LONG video, but quite an interesting one IMHO).
It’s nor even funny how much this thing is better than any other opener I’ve ever used, it’s just so bloody amazing!
How are “active users” defined? Because there’s not a single community on the Active User Growth list that got more than 10 posts PER WEEK - that doesn’t look very active to be honest…
Let’s put it on the pile of all other war crimes over there, and then just ignore it like all the other ones. Maybe mention them in passing once in a while, but without any real consequences…
The feeling of complete powerlessness when I read news like these makes me so sad. I don’t have any hope for that area anymore - I don’t think a realisticsolution even exists anymore :(
These people only have one book (that most of them haven’t even read start to finish) and it’s enough for them - anything else is probably blasphemy, satanism and (worst of all) woke…
It’s just so sad and scary that even tough we now have access to sum total of human knowledge at our fingertips, and yet people like these, who would drag us all back to middle ages, still exist, and if anything become stronger and stronger…
Yet another job CREATOR doing mass layoffs? Soon that’s going to become more common than mass shootings in the US…
How about we try it with wages too, Wendy’s? It’s a busy time and you REALLY need me to finish a project? Well, my pay just surged, so pay up or come back later when I have nothing to do. How’s that for an “enhanced feature” you greedy fucking pricks?
Let me tell you about my revolutionary way to prevent athlete’s foot!
Also, did you know you can prevent testicular cancer with one simple snip step?
I think a big factor (maybe even the biggest one) here is that people seem to overwhelmingly be voting AGAINST something/someone instead of FOR something/someone. In the US it’s made even worse, because people were brainwashed into believing they only have two choices, so if they’re against choice A it automatically means they must vote for choice B, warts and all, because otherwise their vote us “wasted” (which is not even remotely true or accurate, but that’s another story).
I don’t know if there’s a way to even fix it anymore, because the polarization and tribalization of societies went so far it is scary. But hey, Biden supports Israel, so let’s vote for Trump instead. Because he will clearly not support Israel, he will immediately stop selling bombs to them and he’ll bring peace to the region, right? Sigh…
Guess it’s time to display this in every classroom then: https://www.bible-tencommandments.com/10-C-Languages/10-C-Arabic.htm
