- Comment on Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File Explorer 2 weeks ago:
Yes, but them not calling it out in the article makes me thing this is not the case here. If it would be done locally, it would not be as bad. But I somehow doubt it would be.
- Comment on Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File Explorer 2 weeks ago:
Article doesn’t state this but I assume this is done via Copilot, so anything you use it on goes direct to Microsoft cloud, right?

Since they say they will be giving you a quick lesson… might be allright. It will most likely need some time to get used to it but you might be fine. See how the quick lesson goes? They might show you around the neighborhood for you to then drive around yourself and get used to it a bit.

- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 4 weeks ago:
There seemsnto be a misunderstanding. What I tried to say wasn’t “Hitler is not bad, because Stalin was also bad”. What I tried to say is Hitler was bad and so was Stalin. Each in their own way. Amd neither of them should be glorified.

Gulag is the russian word for prison. It’s just really easy to make foreign words scary to racists.
While I’m not Russian, accusing a Slav of being racist against Slavs sure is hillarious.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 4 weeks ago:
I didn’t quite intend to put gulags and concentration camps on the same level. But there are some similarities, like being used to disappear political or ideological oponents.

It’s important that you visit memorials erected to in the memory of the Victims of Communism, sometimes there are hundreds of names there
We don’t have such monuments over here. But I know for a fact that communist regime in my country inprisoned or persecuted also members of the nazi resistance movement as well as soldiers fighting the nazis abroad. I have no issues with actual nazis getting punished for what they did.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 4 weeks ago:
You will note I never denied nazi crimes in any of my comments. I just don’t deny communist crimes either.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 4 weeks ago:
I can’t disagree and I’m aware these are not on the same level. Not a perfect analogy for sure, but still a place people went to die to.
Nazis camps were also not all the same. Auschwitz was a labor camp for example - which yes, still had gas chambrers and ovens. But then there was the like of Birkenau not far from there and thats where people were actually sent to die. It is clear which of those is more evil, but you can’t say one of them wasn’t evil just because the other was more evil
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 4 weeks ago:
Yes, I’m aware nazis and communists were not the only ones doing terrible stuff. That doesn’t make it right
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 5 weeks ago:
the fact that equivocating the worst excesses that occured under the Soviet Union as being anything remotely near the monstrous crimes against humanity perpetrated by the German Nazi regimn is to commit and engage in Holocaust denialism
Now let’s be clear. I was talking death counts. And I do believe that the Nazis were worse. I saw Auschwitz and Birkenau camps and those are sights that I will never forget. I get chills just remembering it. So please do be cautions who you call holocaust denier.
But we are still comparing two evils here. One is greater, one is lesser. But “lesser” evil doesn’t necessarily mean the evil was small.

Afaik Stalin is resoposible for more deaths than Hitler. Hitler had concentration camps, Stalin had gulags. Neither was much better than the other.
