So you're saying there are no Machine gun fire, snipers, grenades, mortars and shell shock anymore?

This was me directly translating from German I think :D

Just for my understanding, wasn't OpenAI not also a nonprofit and is now a forprofit and the CEO is at least as bad as Zuckerberg?
I understand it will make it a little bit harder, but nothing prevents Mastodon to go the OpenAI way or is the situation different in some way? - Comment on I've been banned with the reason: "Spammer" 5 days ago:
Ok, good to know, thanks for your understanding.
But that also sounds to me that my change of the title, which I did about 30 seconds after I posted the post, never made it from my PieFed instance to your Lemmy instance. This seems be a bug somewhere in one of the software, I will create a bug fot PieFed so it can be investigated.

Sorry the instance of peertube was just offline because I've been doing some cleaning on the server, now it's online again.

I checked on the Wired website and when I start marking the title all of that gets automatically marked and copied to copy and paste. I guess it's some javascript doing that at least in Firefox.
Ok that explains finally the reason, thanks for pointing that out.

Aah, yeah when I copy and pasted the title this was there and I didn't realize only after I posted it. But then I changed the title and removed the bold part, did it not propagate to the other instances?

- Comment on Germany’s four-day work week proves to be a massive hit 6 days ago:
I feel so many times that instead of having a meeting I could just write a email with a link to the documentation I wrote for the purpose of everyone in the project following it. People could read it when they have time and ask questions via email and I would answer them asynchronously and everyone would be up to speed.
In reality when I do that the email gets ignored by 95℅ of the people who should know about it and that leads to many problems because we can't align on how to run the project. And I get it I also get so many email and it's not always clear if they are important for me or not and I have so many things to do so I'm happy to ignore the not so important things.
A meeting, as bad as it is, forces you to take one hour out of your schedule and spent it in this specific topic. On top of it when we go through the documentation together it's easy to understand what parts of it are more important and which less, etc.
And because there are many people in my situation in the project each of them needs to create a meeting just to be able to cut through the loud voices in the email and deliver their message so that I end up with more than 50℅ of my day in meetings.

- Comment on Are Asian Americans in the US more likely or less likely to get harassed by law enforcement compared to other racial groups? 1 week ago:

I Germany we even have a word for guys like that: "Langhaariger Bombenleger".

I'm white and the only time I had interaction with police was when I had long hair. They would pull me out at the airport to search my bag, on every border by car or by boat, even when they let the rest of my family go. Even just driving my car they would stop me.
Once I cut off my hair it immediately stopped, and I haven't been stopped since ever. This was about 15 years ago.
- Comment on It's Never Been Easier (Or Cheaper) To Digitize Your VHS Tapes 1 week ago:
I did that about 10 years ago, me and my brother spent Christmas by changing tapes cutting videos and naming the files. In the 90ies my dad bought a camera and we filmed a lot for a couple of years and it's awesome to have the videos. There are so many people there who are dead now, pictures are great but on a video you see how they moved in a particular way, how they spoke and how they interacted with each other, it's amazing! I recommend everyone to record their parent and grandparents just doing boring every day stuff like cooking or just drinking tea or cleaning the yard.

He doesn't want to be left behind, everyone else is doing it, the King will be mad at you if you're the outlier.

- Comment on AI discusses document that just says “Poopoo Peepee” 1 month ago:
It's not bad, at least not worse than many of the podcasts where people ran out of steam after some time but refuse to stop making new episodes.
One good thing is, no advertisement break.

I wonder how many independent bluesky servers there are.
- Comment on How are Americans supposed to survive the next 30 years? 1 month ago:
To be fair the USA seems to have the brightest future compared to basically any other country because you guys don't have this imminent demographic collapse like most other developed countries like Japan, Korea, China, Germany, Italy, etc. And because of your geography and size you are would only be mildly affected by a WW3.
Perhaps it helps to look at other parts of the world and see how comperativelly well you guys have it.
I guess the biggest challenge is to minimize the huge divide between the rich and the poor. Sadly you missed the opportunity to choose Berny Sanders as your leader a couple of times, that would have helped a lot.
