Sorry but even after doing that it is still clear we need more tariffs on the penguins whether we assume they are cylinders or not.

Yeah true, I guess I meant more before this recent uptick in memes/criticism. I don’t expect celebrity musicians to be paragons of virtue or fight every political battle for justice but I do expect… something? Like a little bit? Have a spine maybe?
I mean she can do whatever she wants, but that is the point right, she can do whatever she wants unlike the rest of us.

You can be a pirate with principles.
On the topic, what was the reasoning of the Houthis attacks on the red sea shipping lanes?
It was because they are totally crazy deranged terrorist villains from an 80s action movie right?..or like monomaniacal greed right?

Stephen Miller is a nazi, he doesn’t give a shit about health except as a narrative device to create permission for more authoritarian violence.

- Comment on Is it realistic to hope that lemmy grows to the size of the bigger social media platforms? 1 week ago:
No more unrealistic than the massive valuations on the stock market of social media corporations that can supposedly back it up somehow (with AI! or something… VR maybe?) despite the fact that fundamentally these social media places are becoming crowded rooms of bots pretending to be humans all trying to manipulate each other.
My point is, we will figure out how to sustainably scale before corporations do because the metabolism of massive tech companies precludes them from giving a shit about that.
At this point, inefficiency is a virtue for these corporations as it degrades the environment around them making future alternatives unlikely to be able to gain a hold in such a broken context.

This economic crash is going to be so much more painful than a nice quick asteroid impact that vaporizes you in a fraction of a second. Jealous of the dinosaurs right now.

I was replying to both, I understand your point, my point is the beginning of the comment you were responding to defeats itself with stupidity before your logic (which I agree with) has even gotten out of bad and put pants on for the day.

The issue isn’t so much that they’re banning pornographic content
I agree with your point but also what the hell, why is this considered a normal well adjusted thing to say…
I’m all in for banning pornographic content
Why? What is the flimsy, unscientific, puritan christian conservative reason and why is it ok for people to force it on everybody else?

Conservatives HATE GAMING. Not the online chuds and 4channers who hate women, they’re barely even conservatives…
They sure sound like conservatives to me.

TL;DR Google will resort to desperately underpaid and mistreated human workforces in “far away” places to handle these problems because AI can’t and will simply claim it is AI.

Did they actually stop? Yeah it seems like the UK is further along the process of disengaging but our connections to the genocide of palestinians run so deep it is hard to fathom the US government listening to its people and stopping arming Israel.

Agreed, I guess I meant it potentially had a great interface that was progressively enshittified… but if it hadn’t… it would have been nice.
That was a different timeline, if such a one where microsoft doesn’t enshittify xbox exists.

It particularly enrages me since the xbox 360 had a wonderful interface in my opinion.

Idk, I don’t think most scifi pushes the envelope of what we can imagine, rather it provides a convenient escape to galaxies less incomprehensible than the bewilderment of earth where the author can make a point about spacewar and unstoppable mindless empires.
shrugs
Scifi (like any other genre) needs to continually reaffirm its association with creativity, not assume because paper thin character types are fighting spacewars that it counts as pushing the envelope of our imaginations.
