That’s one of the nicer participation trophies I’ve seen
- Comment on Florida sues some of the biggest porn platforms, accusing them of not complying with the state's age verification law 1 week ago:
Good luck trying to find any rational in these legislations, there is none. I can still search for “sexy naked sex” and get thousands of explict image results from google in FL. The laws are not protecting kids, but they are embarrassing legal aged adults and putting sites that tried to cooperate out of business.
- Comment on Florida sues some of the biggest porn platforms, accusing them of not complying with the state's age verification law 1 week ago:
State prosecution argues if there’s access in Florida, the site must follow their laws. These sites need to georestrict access and should have done it the day law went into effect.
- Comment on Why isn't Mbin more popular? 1 week ago:
I started with kbin, but as that project declined the lemmy apps were starting to mature, after I found voyager I was all in on lemmy. I still haven’t found a great mobile app for mbin.

Work hard, learn to code, master the fundamentals, excel beyond your peers and you might have a real chance at… being laid off by embracer, microsoft or ubisoft. Sigh.
- Comment on so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down. 4 weeks ago:
Tesseract is open source so perhaps not all is entirely lost, but yes situation is quite unfortunate. I’m not sure I can even say surprising though, considering ptz was raising flags nearly a year ago regarding admin tooling and general community behavior.

Maybe it’s a choose your own adventure situation. Tesla is whatever company you want it to be!
- Comment on Elon Musk Floats a New Source of Funding for xAI: Tesla 4 weeks ago:
I thought Tesla was an AI company first, why would they invest in a competitor? Or are they not, and they need to get their AI from xAI in which case what’s the point of Tesla, again?

A remote positional moon-sized sun shade? That’s crazy enough to work I think you’ve solved the heatwave here
- Comment on holee shiet 4 weeks ago:
Idk anything about stars or solar systems, but when my house gets too hot I just close the curtains and it helps everything cool down. Maybe we can close earth’s curtains and will fix it?
- Comment on YSK about StopICE.net to send and receive alerts about ICE raids in your area 4 weeks ago:
Not really, at least as long as the constitution is worth the paper it’s written on. But uh considering recent rulings, need to evaluate your own risk tolerance because who knows in future.
- Comment on Barbers HATE this one simple trick 5 weeks ago:
Steve Jobs would wear the exact same outfit, Every. Single. Day. That’s the kind of dedication needed, most people aren’t cut out for it.

I wonder how it feels when VTEC kicks in on a literal rocket
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 1 month ago:
Trump team is already walking it back after they started taking preorders and a journalist found the model. They’re now claiming they meant to say it could eventually be made in America. It’s a $170 Chinese phone they’re marking up to $500
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 1 month ago:
I believe the Made in USA Labeling Act passed 2021 would prevent following the Moto X approach of just final assembly, but I suppose it’s up to trump’s FTC to make the final call regardless, easy enough for them to issue an exception.
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 1 month ago:
“a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States.”
Alright, so clearly this is a bald-face lie? How the hell can they claim this? What kind of made in america SOC are they using?

- Comment on The Daily Wire is now trying to pass off AI slop as actual footage from Palestine. 2 months ago:
I zoomed in on one frame - it’s a kind mess of abstract lines and smears, but it also could be AI enhancement with a modern phone, imo. I’d like additional supporting evidence as well.

What can we do, society is beyond cooked. Your friends, neighbors, colleagues, teachers, lawyers, many many people cannot identify a random still AI image right now, nevermind a fictional cohesive motion picture. They are unaware how far the tech has progressed and extent it’s become weaponized. What actually can be done?
