Thankfully I saw this before the deletion, so I can still call you out for having the reading comprehension of… well, an average Lemmy user tbh
Ooh, yeah, lookit you, you got me. Why do you think I deleted it?

The crypto thing is a half-baked idea that should’ve been abandoned a long time ago.

Never had an issue with Firefox on Android. Maybe you’re going to some sketchy websites; I don’t know.

Most people don’t even know who Brendan Eich is, much less that he owns Brave Software.

I’d like to hear more about #3 and #4. They seem to be a software company. Of course, that doesn’t mean that they can’t also be an advertising company (see Google).

Well, a hand gesture is pretty quiet.

It’s a rather silly comment. Experts get to decide how these things are defined. It would be like me saying “Personally, I consider a tree to be a type of rock, but I realize that isn’t a common opinion.”

[This is what a personality disorder is.] (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_disorder) It includes stuff like paranoia, schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder.

Yes, I dated somebody who had cluster B (antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic) which made her abusive. It was not hot and it was not cute, and it ruined our relationship (which was sad).

There’s a documentary about flat earthers called Behind the Curve where they do try to prove the earth is flat.

Maybe you should get your eyes checked, because mine tell me that the earth is curved.

LLMs don’t have emotional states, so they can’t be sassy.

I’m seriously questioning what you consider good, then. That’s the reason people call it “slop”. It’s not good.

Pamela Colman Smith, a British artist. Who, I have just learned, was actually not a woman of color. Despite her spending a lot of time in Jamaica, writing books on Jamaican folklore, and even adopting the dress and mannerisms of a Jamaican…she was actually European. Kids these days would call that “problematic”.
However, she never married, and she lived with a female best friend, so I think the odds are very good that she was either a lesbian or asexual.

Waite-Smith deck. I don’t know why we’re giving credit to the publisher of the deck and erasing the queer woman of color who did the artwork. Oh, wait…

Do you honestly think that they don’t boost right-wing stuff? They can and they do. I’ll give you an example. After Trump got elected and Zuckerberg was genuflecting at him, I suddenly started seeing Trump shit in my Facebook feed. This is even with an adblocker and FBP, which normally lets me block sponsored shit. Another example: At X, Musk has ideas like “white genocide” baked into the platform’s AI chatbot. You can’t reform a system like that. You have to abandon it.
The left cannot win anything going forward unless they beat the fuck out of the reich on these platforms. There is no protest that can succeed if we don’t have a good presence on the platforms that people get their opinions from.
Reality is we all should be there now, building groups and putting their ideas against the ropes.
Right. The left is only going to win by…arguing with CHUDs on X? What an obvious waste of time. Yes, organize, but you don’t need to organize at the Nazi bar. In fact, organizing at the Nazi bar is pretty clearly a bad idea. They control the platform. They have your personal and private data. What do you think that they’re going to do if you start winning? Come on.
Also, if “we should all be there now”, why are you here? Why aren’t you arguing with Nazis on X? Sounds like you’ve got a lot of work to do!

The right owns those platforms and most of the leftists are still there regardless.

I remember how shocked I was to find out that Behind Blue Eyes wasn’t originally by Limp Bizkit
Are you fucking kidding me
What is going on here
You listened to that and went “Yup, Fred Durst wrote that”?

Yeah, it’s pretty terrible. There’s a political podcast I was starting to listen to, and the guy on it was talking about how the Venezuelans Trump sent to CECOT were sexually assaulted: he said "They were graped!"
I was like "Did this motherfucker actually say graped?" Yes, yes he did. Obviously, I couldn’t keep listening after that. What the fuck is wrong with people?

Which user interface? I have several. It depends upon which app you’re using.
