Part of why I’m here instead of reddit these days. Even if I 100% disagree with the other person, at least they’re a person.

Lemmy is one of the social media platforms of all time.

You’re on lemmy and you seriously don’t know about funhole? you’re missing out.

Anyway, kitto coupons were a viral meme over there for a while (was pretty annoying, but I get it). I wanted to provide an example in this comment, but lemmy’s search function sucks major ass (actually worse than reddit, and reddit’s search has always been shit).

Anyway, don’t blame memes being too niche for you on ai.

I don’t pretend I’m not an asshole. Most of the time I use my powers for good. This context is purely a guilty pleasure of mine, no excuses, I just like it.

If you think you’re not in danger because your rights aren’t currently on the chopping block, enjoy your privilege while it lasts. You’re not safe, you’re just in line.

came from the vegan community here on lemmy

this but unironically.

I just like annoying vegans. They call me the most metal slurs like “carnist” and “bloodmouth”.

There’s been numerous referandums on the subject in which people have had the opportunity to vote on dealing with this shit.

Option A) leave it as is.

Option B) permanent DST

Option C) permanent whatever the other option is called.

Since getting rid of changing the clocks 2 times per year gets split between 2 different solutions, not fixing it wins the vote.

I think there should be one clock for the entire planet and fuck timezones. Most people don’t actually care about what specific number hour the sun rises. Zenith at 4? Fuckit. Communication between people is more important than the movement of celestial bodies.

Hug.

imagine having a freezer that’s susceptible to a cyber attack. Why the fuck is it connected to the internet? All it needs is a thermostat. The closest thing to a “smart feature” that might benefit is the ability to send a notification if power fails or temperature falls below a set value, neither of which should be hackable by an outside party.

You’re delusional. Take your kitto coupon to the funhole, they love hating ai in all its forms there. I’m not interested in a cult echochamber.

Vote like your life depends on it.

Because it does.

I voted like a week ago. I pity the fool who waits for the day of.

That’s not the subject at hand, but on that side tangent I agree with you.

is that worth all the damage it’s causing? for a bit of middling entertainment?

No, it’s not. But the damage is already done, and will be done regardless of anything I do. For the sake of argument, let’s say I do stop using ai altogether. There will always be something that I’m not doing good enough to some people, one of my favorite examples is eating meat. It’s delicious, and the vegans can kiss my ass. I still shop from amazon, other options are not practical. I work for a company that supports republican politicians, I have to pay rent somehow. I could continue.

think about the company you keep bro. altman? musk? amodei? trump?

I’m not keeping that kind of company. I have repeatedly and loudly insisted that those people deserve prison at best. The ai platform I currently use is not associated with any of the big ai companies, and I intend to switch to self hosting in the near future.

Something you should understand is that shit sucks. And sometimes, you can benefit from shit sucking. Taking advantage of shit sucking does not invalidate demands to make it not suck. I haven’t said much about my disdain for the environmental impacts because on the subject of the environmental impact I agree with the neverslop side, but at the same time what the fuck am I supposed to do about it?

Here’s an example for you. Recently, a friend of mine was involved in a car crash. Based on how the cars ended up, it looked like my friend was at fault. However, a flock camera caught the other party speeding into the intersection where the collision happened. Flock is a product of evil and needs to not exist, but between now and then we can sometimes take advantage of it.

I upvoted it, add me to the list

I disagree with urban dictionary on a technicality: you don’t require a penis to goon.

we americans do fuck up just about everything, dont we?
