Yeah this is a pretty dumb take. If all social media is stealing your info, then they are still all stealing your info. This is not “if everyone has superpowers nobody does,” it’s just a dipshit thing to say.
Probably they are all spy networks… Not to pee in your cereal or anything.
Exactly. Adding bad examples makes it seem like you couldn’t get 10 good ones which is obviously not true.
Pretty weak 10. Pick one or two and make a compelling article, I’m already trying to quit. We don’t have to make up stuff like “JFC nuclear power!?”
I’d give you $20 for it ;)
People are looking for “king sized sheets” of “paper towel holder” not gtx4070ti super from gigabyte or esp32 chipset bullshit is how. Most people are getting basic shit, not trying to get around Newegg or a PC parts supplier.
That’s not a real sharp take tbf.
First sentence of each paragraph: correct.
Basically all the rest is bunk besides the fact that you can’t count on always getting reliable information. Right answers (especially for something that is technical but non-verifiable), wrong reasons.
There are “stochastic language models” I suppose (e.g., click the middle suggestion from your phone after typing the first word to create a message), but something like chatgpt or perplexity or deepseek are not that, beyond using tokenization / word2vect-like setups to make human readable text. These are a lot more like “don’t trust everything you read on Wikipedia” than a randomized acid drop response.
Whoa hey!
Twice SO FAR.
Flipping off*. You can flick off boogers, but you flip the bird.
This is me too. I have two of them bought and paid for and people just don’t get it: I went all in on this and you can just sell for 15% of purchase price, I still have mobility needs. More to the point my swasticar still has access to the best charging network on the market and even if I COULD just sell, it’s not cut and dry. It’s easy to shit on Tesla, but it’s still the best offering in the EV market for long range driving. And even if it was not, like fuck me I can’t time travel. Most people who flame have no idea what the actual hell they are talking about.
You can fellate Winnie the Pooh on your own time. It comes with its own whole set of problems.
Edit: Come at me tankies. You’re morons for giving a single dollar to the CCP.
Trans folks coming to save the day!
I played FF7 only and loved it. I did not care for the first remake game, and have not finished it. Hanging at like 70% complete.
Damn. I just looked him up a month ago after rewatching Bat 21. I was happy to see he was still alive. I should have knocked on wood.
Seems to me like kind of a long pivot from
Every single bit of progress was led by people doing more, by people standing up, by people applying pressure between election days.
Why not just DO that?
I don’t disagree that the shift in the Overton window is alarmingly far gone, that Dems are out of touch, or that the country is failing in real time. I disagree with the supercilious presentation of “political (in)action” by the people who ought to be easiest to motivate to go raise some hell.
Instead of punching all the way right, you’re doing a big sad to your adjacent right in a huge lefty echo chamber. By letting perfect be the enemy of less worse we are only left with worse, and you still gotta live in it with us.
Then go do something, man.
Sitting around and doing a “noble” nothing is not standing up or doing more. It’s doing EVEN LESS than voting. There is an absolutely real possibility that if everybody stays home it doesn’t shift D left, it just results in nothing besides Republican control.
In that case though you wouldn’t have to worry about voting for palestinian genocide, because it would be over and done with. You could be not voting for climate denial or not voting for something else, posting on Lemmy about how righteous you are, and bottling your own farts to sniff later.
I’m walking, stumping, and repping local elections and voting as far left as I can everywhere else. There is no far far left activity/activism you’re touting anywhere to be seen. What value do you add?
While you are absolutely right, doing this means (probably) tarnishing your own reputation which many people can’t stomach. You can get another job, but a reputation as an incompetent or subversive employee will follow you around.
That is an extremely apt parallel!
(I’m stealing it)
I need more coffee…
“Ok this time I’ll control the left side, you do the right!”
