If AI makes you afraid for your job you should be doubly afraid because if current AI can replace your job then your job isn’t actually a real job it was only ever temporary
There are tons of jobs that won’t be touched by AI for decades. I won’t see AI hurt jobs in my field for at least 40+ years. Rather than fixating on slowing AI we should be encouraging people to develop real skills a very simple robot cannot do. Humans will be building houses for the rest of the lives of everyone currently alive today

The people with this sentiment are largely jaded women who skipped kids and have to cope themselves and the next generation into sharing their spinster misery. It’s a tale as old as time lol. It’s this very weird phenomenon specifically with women to want to spread their misery to other women. It’s a hyper competitive behavior that seems to peak in their 40s/50s

My guy you literally generated your own custom definitions of words to use it as a way to compare teaching your dog to speak and sodomizing your dog

Idk how porn brained you have to be to conflate owning/training a pet with raping animals and whether this a shitpost or you actually think you cooked but approximately 0% of your comment holds any actual logical meaning

I for one think it’s pretty bad ass that humans are able to build sophisticated enough tools to replace “brain” jobs. Not sure how AI is a humanity bad moment unless you are someone with a make-believe job being replaced by AI

Yeah true we still have csam circling around with over 300k IPs in the US engaged in distribution but don’t get to have the uncensored speech and freedom of thought. What a great deal so glad corporate America raided the Internet forums to make profit and totally stop the spread of csam

Idk how often you go on Reddit but it’s extremely common there mostly in the locality subs. Like daily posts in just the few cities/states I’ve lived in so presumably happening across most of these subs so that’s not inventing something to make it sound worse it’s literally just happening in plain sight

It’s truly a shame we can’t have old internet without all the shit that came with it

Male children wearing girls clothes is not “childhood sexual development” and you know it same as the rest of the world knows it. To suggest so is to betray your own inner degeneracy and yes, to us normal people degenerates are gross and disgusting and abhorrent
- Comment on Good for them. Equality 2 weeks ago:
Liberals love to talk about child sexuality just gotta let them be creeps by themselves. You won’t convince a creep/pedo to not have creepy thoughts and wishes for children

See but American politics only thinks in 4yr cycles so it’s $4M to keep topping it off or $6M to be the President who spent an extra $2M on the pool lol

The majority of my currently held opinions on things have been shaped and influenced by over a decade of online forums discussion boards and conversations with strangers who hold different views as mine
I usually explain the phenomenon of the internet similar to that of the printing press. It makes the smart people smarter (easier access to information) and dumb people dumber (they can’t detect misinformation and manipulation thus will trend towards the worst possible outcomes). If you are a smart person without access to higher education YouTube and Wikipedia is the greatest invention of mankind; if you are a retard then YouTube leads you to binge watching Candace Owens

- Comment on 30 seconds after an "Anarchist" brings up Israel: 5 weeks ago:
Idk if you are commenting in bad faith but there’s a long history in the west (I can only speak to America specifically) of falsely using antisemitism as a shield for any criticism of Jewish culture or Israel’ actions
So your analogy of people accepting a black person saying something is racist but not accepting the same statement from a Jew is totally glossing over the actual history of what’s gone on in the west at the hands of ecoterrorist orgs like the ADL using this as an excuse to manipulate control and shape the narrative surrounding modern Israel
The reason people in 2026 don’t really just bend the knee the instant the word “antisemitism” is used is because the word has been so overused that it lost all sense of meaning colloquially (similar to how liberals have used the term “Nazi” so often that people are proudly blasting HH by Ye and find it funny)
Either you don’t know the history of Jews in America or you do know and you are doing exactly what I’m describing which is falsely using antisemitism as a shield to protect Israel or Jews from valid criticism

Yeah like I explained, you can’t comprehend the degree of how much of your personal life is exposed by data points deemed trivial. The data collectors believe in the value of your privacy as a marketable commodity so to me that’s enough reason. If Palantir thinks harvesting data on how and when I cook can provide them with even more valuable private information then that’s probably the case
For all you know, people who use lemmy and preheat their oven to 350 on tuesdays and listen to XYZ music fall into a category of humans that allows them to also know your romance life and how to best target you in vulnerable areas of your life in ways you don’t immediately identify
The reason to value your privacy isn’t “what is the first order effect of giving this information”. Privacy should be valued because you can’t ever get it back and can’t know the future so why bother giving up something that tech companies spend billions gathering from you just to save a 10sec walk to the kitchen. It’s never been about having things to hide or the mundane of what time you turn on your lights
- Comment on tech never works for long 5 weeks ago:
Would you be comfortable if there were cameras set up in your house feeding to an unknown entity somewhere higher up the economic food chain whose mission is to find ways to extort you for money? Privacy used to be something many people wanted purely for the sake of privacy without any ulterior motive
To me, it’s rather surprising that people don’t just have an instinctual desire to maintain a degree of privacy in their lives. I dont really want people watching and tracking how often I use my air fryer what times I go grocery shopping etc as it literally feels like I’m being spied on. It’s not about having something to hide it’s about protecting something that’s core to the American identity and has been for centuries. Plus these companies are notorious for data breaches and running psychological experiments on people based on personal data collected on them. I’d rather not be a lab rat for some reptilian tech billionaire and I’ll just preheat my oven manually
You can’t think about what this information does right now to your eye. You have to remember that this data is someday going to be completely categorized via AI and same as we couldn’t predict life post-internet, there’s no telling how problematic it might be to your life to have a more robust profile of your personal information than a more private person once AI has fully taken over society. Your life patterns likely tell a lot more about you as a person than you realize which means they are getting way more from you than merely the temperature of your thermostat. Humans are way more patterned in their behavior than our grade school teachers telling us we are unique and special might lead us to believe

Building a cheap NAS with shucked drives running Plex on unraid was the best decision ever. I won’t lie it’s not cheaper than just paying for 1-2 subscriptions and I have spent time managing it but having agency over the content available is so nice and if I don’t have disposable income for a time I can just not add new drives
Better quality, don’t need 7 subscriptions to access all content, and don’t have to worry about things getting shelved. It’s funny because Netflix in like 2014 is why I stopped pirating but it was Netflix in 2019 that made me start pirating again. Spotify is getting real close to making me pirate music again too
- Comment on I would watch that ngl 1 month ago:
Neither? I was making an argument against the logic not really a political position as I am neither an anarchist nor a conservative. China is a Marxist state and they don’t allow unregulated immigration as it dilutes any sense of nationalism and shared cultural identity and the result of this is a very unified country given their population.
If it’s not “a crime” to be undocumented then we could simply make this a crime and problem solved. The people who are upset about enforcement of civil crimes as if they are illegal have no more ground to stand on and America can still have rules that help maintain a national identity. Appeal to the rules is a bad logical argument as it presupposes that rules are eternal and made by God and I’m more of a materialist myself
- Comment on I would watch that ngl 1 month ago:
We could always simply change the rules and boom now it is illegal. What’s the argument then lol. Rules are made up so claiming “well it’s not against the rules” is a retarded argument cuz we can simply change the rules. It’s not good to have undocumented people in the country which is why civilized countries don’t allow this

Plenty of racists claim not to be racist. This doesn’t make their racist opinions suddenly not racist. Nice try tho

Yikes that’s sad. Another generation of men hating femcels shooting themselves in the foot because of inherited prejudice. There’s a big difference between calling out bad actors within your group (which I do with fellow guys regularly) and being misandrist. Seems like you got henpecked pretty hard

Congrats on being the first male femcel I’ve seen on the internet
