  This sort of thing has always happened.

  I do find it particularly infuriating when it’s a topic I’m knowledgeable in/involves my profession. But then I remember most people are stupid and it doesn’t both me too much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When if at all will the social media business model collapse?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think messaging is more likely to see progress made on this front. I don’t see regulations forcing Spotify to allow for their personalization mechanisms to be transferable and that doesn’t really make sense why they should have to, while messaging I can see happen even if only due to popular demand.

  Yes, you’d just need to show that you actively moderate/apply content policies.

  This will vary by jurusduction, but most of the West has laws similar to this I believe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Image uploads are now disabled on lemm.ee due to malicious users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy instances are likely already protected in many countries legally so long as they act in good faith, ie actively moderate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Image uploads are now disabled on lemm.ee due to malicious users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they have oversimplified the situation to the point that it is wrong.

  1. Arguably, Lemmy instance providers are protected in the same way Facebook or other content hosts are. So long as you are acting in good faith you are protected against any illegal content your users upload. This does mean you need to remove illegal content as you become aware of it, you can’t just ignore what your users are doing.

  2. There have been cases where although a user technically ‘possessed’ CSAM, it was shown that they did so unknowingly via thumbnails or it being cached. The police do investigate where it came from. It’s not as simple as just sending it to someone and you can have them convicted.

  Lol first spam I’ve seen so far on lemmy

  Because you’re north looking south.

  Is there any proof of this?

  Listening to, and understanding, everything said within range of the phone should use noticeable processing power.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are slavery reparations fair?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol why is that comment you’re replying to so upvoted, people just like what they want to hear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are slavery reparations fair?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They have a warped view of supply and demand.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are slavery reparations fair?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no idea why you made that idiotic comment about Republicans considering the involvement if Democrats in slavery.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No one really understands our struggle⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeh I support LGBT…

  Landlords GOP Billionaires The Police

  You might want to look up what the definition of ‘drug’ is…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When Y2K happened were there people burning their passports and walking barefoot to Jerusalem or something along those lines?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing happened because a lot of effort was put into changing vulnerable systems.

  I am old enough to remember Y2K. The media definitely stirred some people up about it, in my experience most people seemed to not be too worried about it.

  But we shouldn’t dismiss the hard work that a lot of people did to upgrade or redesign systems that Y2K could have affected.

  As a aside, I remember that when the clock struck midnight at the NYE party I was at someone flipped the circuit breaker for the house as a joke, turning out all the lights. I remember a few people gasping and wondering what the hell was going on for a few moments until the lights came back on and the prankster revealed himself. Was pretty funny at the time 🤣

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bradley Cooper in ‘Jewface’ storm after Leonard Bernstein trailer reveals prosthetic nose⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes I have, I didn’t notice anything strange about his face? He looks different, but not in an uncanny valley way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bradley Cooper in ‘Jewface’ storm after Leonard Bernstein trailer reveals prosthetic nose⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The Oppenheimer film didn’t have a nose prosthetic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bradley Cooper in ‘Jewface’ storm after Leonard Bernstein trailer reveals prosthetic nose⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol did you purposefully choose a photo of young Bernstein to rile people up? Because when I search for him, plenty of images of him as an older man who indeed had a larger nose come up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So much for that dream.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a very naive take.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Elite's War on Remote Work Has Nothing to Do with Productivity⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeh the real estate argument only accounts for part of the issue I think. The majority is, as you say, the psychological gratification of management and executives. They feel more power when they can see their ‘kingdom’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🤡 Not in my backyard⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s either from the fires or the time that dust storm blanketed the east coast. That was crazy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This guy is a real hero. He managed to cut through hate with love and openness.

  My favorite trivia for The Fugitive us how much they sent on a ‘realistic’ dummy for the scene where he falls from the dam… Money very well spent 🤣

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PLEAAASSEE PLEASE COME BACK TO THE OFFICE PLS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I find this really hard to believe. I like going in to work, but I don’t work in a standard office (engineer on industrial site). If I were to be working in an office all day though, no way would I prefer that to home.
