  Yeah, it was replaced: “Do the right thing (for the shareholders)”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China to offer childcare subsidies in bid to boost birth rate⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not really the issue. They’re going to face a demographic collapse like is happening in SK, JP, and to soon be followed by the west.

  I’m all for some degrowth, but it’s going to be disastrous if not managed properly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Isn't there somebody you forgot to ask?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I would be greatly entertained if valve went into payment processing and out-competed these absolute shitshows of companies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel like it was on purpose⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Suddenly

  As if this hasn’t been going on for decades.

  My solution is to do the very minimum I can to get by and otherwise enjoy my minimalist life. Fuck consumerism with a 10ft pole. Let it rot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please tell me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Details shmetails. A teat is a teat. Would you prefer “mammary milk” to be technically correct?

  Fun trivia: Did you know, the only other animals to have 2 thoracic and no other teats, besides anthropoids, are elephants and anteaters?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please tell me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Stealing breast milk from another species is pretty damn weird, so probably that.

  Me visiting cool places in vr:

  “Hey cool, we made a smaller cave inside the cave!”

  I personally prefer the humped-back interpretation from the mid-90s:

  smithsonianmag.com/…/was-spinosaurus-a-bison-back…

  I can’t quite tell if it was fully omitted, or if it was intended as part of one of the listed theories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jell-OH MY GOD!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Would.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is eating up Pennsylvania's power, governor threatens to pull state from the grid — new plants aren't being built fast enough to keep up with demand⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  AI has been a well established field of computer science for over 50 years. While LLMs are certainly a part of that field, it’s technically incorrect to conflate the two.

  Just using “LLM” is also a bit over-specific, however, as it’d exclude text-to-image models, and others. “GenAI” is probably the most correct term to use to refer to the transformer-based deep neural networks that have become popular in the last several years.

  That said, language prescriptivism is rarely effective. So while I agree it’s incorrect to call LLMs “AI”, good luck getting laypeople to use the correct technical language from a field they mostly have very limited knowledge of.

  May you all rot in hell.

  They’ve strayed so far from the teachings of their own god, I’m fairly certain that’s the biblically prescribed punishment.

  Grats Saba! Now on to 2M!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beercicle⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think every time I switch freezers, I have to learn the lesson again. Maybe the vision of the particular freezer I’m using splattered in gooey cola tar is enough reminder, but with a different freezer, the trauma is no longer with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spring Anime Season Wrap-Up, Summer Kickoff, and Discussion Thread [2025, Week 27]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d keep going with GQuuux. This is my intro to the Gundam franchise as well, and there’s a lot of back story I’m missing, but if you can tough it out and just focus on Machu and Nyan’s story, it’ll still be pretty worthwhile. (Disclaimer, I’m only up to ep 11)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beercicle⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One can of pop exploding in there was enough to traumatize me into never forgetting again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well, are you?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy is filled with thigh-sock wearing, Arch-using catbois isn’t it?

  Mreww :3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is Lemmy attempting to radicalise people to enforce class wars?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, what a defeatist attitude. “If I can’t fix everything, why even bother to make small changes for the better.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Men tell women to stop complaining, also men every time june rolls around⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like this Men fellow has multiple personality disorder or something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MrBeast scraps AI YouTube thumbnail generator days after announcing it: 'If creators don't want the tools, no worries'⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Even his face is a scam. I’ve never seen anyone whose entire facial expression looks like a constant veneer, barely hiding how he only sees others as an opportunity for exploitation. It’s uncanny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I know you degenerates want it⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. I recall going into the adult area of a manga store, and there was just a full on lolicon poster on the wall. Pretty sure putting that up where I live would get you a jail sentence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Carney Justified Attacks While Iranian Canadians Feared The Worst⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Let me save you from giving the Nazi run platform an extra click. Here’s Carney’s justification which he wrote there:

  Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

  While U.S. military action taken last night was designed to alleviate that threat, the situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile. Stability in the region is a priority.

  Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.

  It doesn’t if you don’t connect it to the internet.

  I’m here to write nonsense and gargle balls, and I’m all out of balls to gargle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything you need is already inside of you.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But of course! Lichess is great! From a spectator perspective though, chess com is kinda unavoidable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Name an older anime you'd love to see make a full comeback?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Space Brothers had the first 20 something volumes turned into a 99 episode anime, but in 2014, they caught up to the source material so stopped. It totally deserves a continuation, as there’s another ~20 manga volumes out now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lik lik lik⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  *Notices you pause grooming* OwO what’s this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything you need is already inside of you.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, same. I’m glad they finally got everything more or less resolved. Incidentally, I lost a lot of respect for Danny Rensch and chess com for how they handled everything.

  Hans definitely plays into being the Heel, so I get why some people don’t like him, but he’s also a genuinely very talented player. I look forward to seeing him succeed in the future.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything you need is already inside of you.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hikaru is the chess personality I hate most.

  Well deserved. Hikaru is the biggest drama frog in the chess community, and never misses a chance to fan the flames for entertainment’s sake. He’s a bully.

  I’d be lying if I said I never guilty enjoyed watching any of it, though.
