Do you think lemmy sets public policy? The only thing that happens here is people comment on shit. So you’re bothered by comments to the effect of “influencers tell kids to do stupid shit and sometimes kids die because of it, and this is bad.”
Why do you think that freedom of speech means no one is allowed to criticize speech? Criticism is also speech.
Your TikTok addiction may have turned you into a psychopath. “Kids die all the time, what’s the big deal?”
The gun rights crowd has better arguments about why their hobby is more important than kids dying.

First season was a bit procedural, but S2 may be the best season of TV of anything. Other seasons were great too, and it had the best ending of any TV show I’ve seen.
Based on some of the works of Elmore Leonard (author of the books movie like Get Shorty and Jackie Brown are based on) it’s about an old school cowboy kind of guy by the name Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant)… but in modern times. So cowboys vs. gangsters kind of thing.
Here’s the opening scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho2_c_LGZfk
Raylan isn’t the most interesting character, interesting enough though because it is questioned whether he’s creating situations so he can kill people, what the influence his father (a violent abusive criminal) had on him, etc. But it’s kinda like Batman TAS, where the villains are the really interesting part of it. The main villain, Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins), is kinda like the Joker because he knows the hero is going to win and makes all of his schemes around that.
You can skip City Primeval tho, it’s kinda pointless other than the last five minutes.
“Sit down and stop being condescending.” – someone that doesn’t lecture people
Everyone knows what Trump is. Trump is demanding an increase in military spending with the expectation that the money will go to the US. He’s basically demanding tribute.
Saying “sure we’ll spend more on defense” while spending on our own defense industry is calling his bluff while also getting ready for if and when he starts using the US military to bully allies.
Nobody else in the world needs to be lectured about the problems with the US military industrial complex. We know.
Yeah, it seems they also didn’t mention that it’s a European defense company, not a US defense company.
Europe is investing a lot into defense now and it’s actually a good thing that they’re moving away from dependence on the US defense industrial complex.
Spotify sucks tho. But that’s a separate thing.
Clickbait article.
Sorry best we can do is have the marketing department take over XBox and now it’s just a logo they license out.
You don’t need to wonder, you can just Bing™ it!
Last I checked, the “Communist” Party of China has more than 80 billionaires with a combined wealth of over $600 Billion.
This doesn’t fit the Tankie narrative of China being a socialist paradise so just go on pretending China isn’t run by fascist billionaires just because they have a red flag with some yellow symbols on it. Fascists have never called themselves “socialists” to sucker the left into supporting them before, right?
I’ll have to check that out… I really liked Yojimbo.
I think you call it eminent domain in the US. But I think it can still be challenged in court, but wait a couple months.
Yes, the US is becoming China. You put a guy into power that admires Xi Jinping for the same reason China made Xi President for life: wanted a strongman to run the economy and protect you from evil foreigners. And now you’re getting corporate socialism, just like China has.
Amazing how fast you can build stuff when there’s safety standards, no environmental regulations, no labour rights and the government can expropriate property without a time consuming legal process!
Though I think a prefer living in a country where I have rights even if it takes a bit longer to build stuff.
So you’re saying we should stop trading with China?
Seems like it would be jail time if you get caught. Or serious prison time if it causes a fatal accident.
Obviously… but kids aren’t going to stop watching because of some tut tuts and wags of the finger. That just makes them like it more.
I personally think all of these countries suck
All countries in the world suck. I’m from Canada, do you think my country sucks? Maybe not because Canada generally has a good reputation, but I can assure you Canada has done many horrible things in the past. Doing some bad stuff now (pumping out a lot of oil, not good for global warming) but is also doing some good stuff now. Countries are made up of many different people and governments have many departments doing many different things. So Canada sucks and Canada is good. The US sucks and the US is good.
And yes, Israel sucks and Israel is good. Just saw a photo of the hospital in Israel Iran hit with a missile and out in front there was a rainbow flag. It’s the only country in the Middle East where there are gay rights, being gay is illegal everywhere else in the Middle East. Or worse, the Houthis literally crucify gay people.
I’ve just asked this prompt to an unbiased LLM
The thing about LLMs is it’s only aggregating things it finds on the internet. And nation states can (and do!) fill the internet with shit to skew things in their direction. So there’s no such thing as an unbiased LLM. There will be bias within the dataset. If the developers make adjustments to make the answers less biased, that’s just making the LLM match the developer’s bias. Also LLMs don’t really understand things like time and will miss a lot of nuance.
How relevant is a coup in 1953? Maybe to some really old people might remember it, but for most of us it’s just something in a history book. It doesn’t mention the Iran Hostage crisis which is way more relevant. I didn’t mention these (or W’s Axis of Evil bullshit, another instance of a US President being an idiot) because it’s kind of irrelevant once nations make a treaty. The you make a treaty you’re supposed to settle any grudges over the past, otherwise why are you signing the treaty? The Iran hostage crisis might be the one worth mentioning as it’s a big reason why the US won’t be establishing an embassy in Tehran anytime soon. I didn’t mention it because we have phones so it’s probably not that big a deal, but then again the US might be less likely to bomb Iran if they had an embassy there.
Also Israel has tried to make peace with Palestinians in a land for peace deal in the past. It obviously didn’t work out, but the LLM should mention that if it’s going to mention the occupation has been going on a long time. There have been failures in Palestinian leadership, Yasser Arafat was a lying corrupt asshole. Remember what I said about not being supposed to hold grudges when you sign a treaty? That lying bastard signed a treaty with no intention of following it. This is a major reason why Israel doesn’t trust Palestinian leadership.
See if you compile a list of the bad things a country has done, they will always seem evil. But they aren’t sports teams it’s stupid to support them or be against them. I think it’s fair to say to say there are political groups with this countries that suck. And countries will seem to suck when those suck political groups get into power, but it’s really that group within the countries that suck.
Netanyahu sucks, Israelis in general don’t suck. Hamas sucks, Palestinians in general don’t suck. The Ayatollah sucks, Iranians in general don’t suck. Donald Trump sucks, Americans in general don’t suck.
I’m not? Weird question, guess you just ran out of shit to say. Anyway, I think we’re done here. Try to work on not dehumanizing people when you get upset over things. I hope you can become a better person.
I understood that comment. I legit don’t know what you were saying in the previous one.
You shouldn’t think of “AI” as intelligent and ask it to do something tricky. The boring stuff that’s mostly just typing, that’s what you get the LLMs to do. “Make a DTO for this table <paste>” “Interface for this JSON <paste>”
I just have a bunch of conversations going where I can paste stuff into and it will generate basic code. Then it’s just connecting things up, but that’s the fun part anyway.
