Very true. Also, a new federal policy is now in place and requires any research funded even in part by federal money be open access. As a result we should see much more high quality research becoming open access (already has begun). Only downside is research labs like mine have to use more money to publish to these journals because open access costs more for the authors. Hopefully this system gets reformed during my lifetime.
But yes, please just email the authors! Works most of the time and I think it’s fun.

Good clarification. I appreciate you sharing that, it has definitely changed my perspective. It’s nice to have an objective study like that. I hope we can break free from this control in my lifetime.

I singlehandedly doorknocked thousands of houses, explicitly convinced dozens of people to find better news sources and support progressive candidates in primaries and general elections, and helped elect an attorney general who I genuinely trust (most relevant to this discussion; he is a close ally of Bernie Sanders). A lot more productive than complaining anonymously online like so many do on Lemmy and Reddit and other social media.

I would argue that campaigning for local/state/federal is much more impactful than direct action against a company. I doorknocked more than anyone in my state Senate district and my state senator won in a red area, allowing Minnesota to have a 1-vote majority in the Senate. Now Minnesota has done more than any blue state across the board in two years than others have done in decades.

Wow that is quite egregious… Thanks for enlightening me. I think the solution to this sort of thing is regulations and that’s why I volunteer every election.

So condescending to ask for a better technology option with multiple sensors. /s

It… sounded?? How does my question not appear genuine? I literally just asked a question. I want to buy an EV with excellent software in the next few years. That’s it. No sarcasm. Would prefer not a Tesla.

Why the fuck did I get down voted for looking for an ev Tesla alternative… This place makes no sense. Are you all Tesla fan boys or what?

Why should I oppose the government using a basic AI to search publicly available posts to identify potential mass shooters or terrorists? If you don’t like that why the fuck are you in social media?

Damn I’m sorry! Soy milk/yogurt/ice cream is my favorite because I can’t do lactose. Do you like oat or almond stuff instead?
