  It’s not even “okay” for kids past a certain age because it causes deformed teeth development. Or are you asking if people will look at you weird? Thats also a yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pilot project⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But is that really so? i would think that a better work life balance makes the employees inclined to remain at their job instead of hopping elsewhere. Probably even at the expense of a higher salary at another place that would instead demand the grind again.

  Same thing… Looked up who voiced the lisping rockstar in game because it seemed so peculiar to me. And its just… her. Really soured me on Lizzy.

  Assuming that is indeed the case, she still benefits considerably: she gets to stay relevant, develop celebrity, change or affect the public opinion on her. A normal criminal cant even get a job cleaning toilets sometimes.

  The most depressing thing about this entire ordeal is that the woman stole lots of money, got busted because that money belonged to rich people, and is now after having been convicted and literally been to prison as far as i know, able to cash in on that further. Lets make a movie about that wonderful successful scammer.

  1. i somehow did not expect him to make those sounds, holy.

  2. i also did not expected him to just zoom up the tree like that, i had somehow always thought they were slow and chill.

  3. lastly i discovered i don’t know shit about koalas.

  You got like 50% fairly popular opinions in there, and then some hopefully deeply unpopular ones, lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Super unpopular around these parts, i’m sure

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Anon the asshole?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Another example that maybe makes it clearer coming to mind: warhammer is a massive business, for decades. But why do people like to buy unpainted little plastic models and then do a usually mediocre job themselves painting those, taking forever? They could just buy them fully painted by professionals, that would look obviously much better.

  But the enjoyment and emotional attachment comes from doing that yourself. It is your little sci fi army even if their lines are smudged. You look at those figures and remember the hours spent painting them, progressively getting a little better with each. It is the same with the instrument, the husband fixed it up, spent a lot of love and effort on it, learned something in the process. Now thats all gone and instead he has some product.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Anon the asshole?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Cant you see how someone might value an instrument they repaired (and probably taught themselves how to do that) themselves a lot more than a store bought, flawless replacement?

  There is value in doing things yourself, even if you could get always a better result by paying someone professional to do it for you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fuck AIPAC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You are just fucked in the head my guy.

  Mass killing people is never acceptable, especially based on convicions or ideologies.

  If you think whatever it is you desire politically is worth building on a genocide then you should really get a room with yahu and trumpet.

  *i am specifically arguing arguing against genocide. The people in power enabling and perpetrating it need to be severely punished, with execution decidedly on the table. That is a whole different beast than killing kids because of who their parents are though. Cant believe im even arguing about this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fuck AIPAC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, what the fuck. Zionists maybe, but the ww2 winners didnt kill the german population and children either. Why? Because it is fundamentally wrong.

  Cant be a mass murderer in any case and still be a good guy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon notices a problem⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually ☝️🤓, that is a common urban myth. We have mapped virtually everything down there, we were not everywhere with submarines and cameras but as far as i know virtually all of the deep sea has been mapped from the surface and the general consensus is that there is nothing spectacular or extraordinary down there.

  Maybe an unusual or unknown species here and there, but nothing like some unknown frontier for mankind with potentially revolutionary discoveries.

  I will have a look at this, thank you for sharing your work! But also, i hope you listen to the other commenter and reach out if you need any help an online stranger can provide.

  How so? Shareholders are the worst cancer on the economy, but at the same time hard to eliminate without a revolution.

  The proper order should be that people invest in a company they believe will do well, not because they seek to exert control over it. If you do not believe the company is operating in a profitable manner you should not buy, or sell your, shares.

  You state this is wrong. Why? In my opinion, if we must have institutionalized gambling, we should seek to keep it from exerting undue influence, even in the shareholders own long term interest. Of course this would not allow the leadership to just do whatever with the money, reporting and oversight should if anything be improved upon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SpaceX stock drops to a new low and loses $1 trillion in value in a month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You give that money to the Corp to get profits in return. Not a say in how the company is run, at least youre not supposed to for healthy business operations. One of, if not the biggest reason that for example steam continues to win is just they are being not overtly greedy and shortsighted. That is obviously a much healthier business model.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SpaceX stock drops to a new low and loses $1 trillion in value in a month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  … If i had a company and it were successful, and i decided to go public, i would only issue that kind of voteless share or whatever they are called, so that i would be protected from shareholder pressure to some extent. Was that not clear somehow? Or did you just want to go for the snark

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SpaceX stock drops to a new low and loses $1 trillion in value in a month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it? That is, if i were to own a public company, the only way i would ever allow anyone else to own a part of it. It is my company, i don’t want fucking shareholders pressure me for more profits and shortsighted decisions. If the vultures want a share of the profits they get just that, not a voice at the table.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Computers can't do everything⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely good points you are making, but his art has also variously been described as soulless or things to that effect, because he can perfectly play a musical piece or make an almost photorealistic painting, but struggles to go beyond surface concepts (not to mention when he is asked to sculpt music).

  Though ultimately i would agree that data is not the best example, because as you said he sometimes gets a taste of what he is lacking, and also, because he has an actual consciousness.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Computers can't do everything⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a great and succinct summary of the core issue of “ai”. Without consciousness there can never be anything that makes art art.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We can't keep tying healthcare to employment⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In my opinion this is applicable to virtually any political discourse on lemmy though. Overwhelmingly progressive, left leaning, politically informed.

  I myself am often annoyed with the literal echo chamber effect of people dropping facts and entire paragraphs in the comments like there is an audience to be convinced, when in fact everyone already knows and has read and heard the argument dozens of times.

  At the same time i don’t want to engage with right wingers either, so political monoculture it is.
