- Comment on Could NFTs have saved artists from ai data scraping if they were taken seriously? 1 day ago:
It would be the ultimate irony if the ai horseshit is giving nfts a renaissance, which are the previous iteration of tech horseshit.
- Comment on What would it take to make Gemini suitable to be president of the world? 2 days ago:
- The singularity happening
- it (the machine consciousness) by some twist of fate being belevolent towards us
- we, by another twist of fate, are unable or unwilling to destroy it out of ignorance
- the stars align and we allow it to become involved in governance and administration
And then it still needs to be able to dismantle capitalism to allocate resources efficiently and where needed and not hoarded to increase the power of a select few.

Sounds poor and mad 😔
- Comment on Welcome to Lemmy.zip 3 days ago:
I think it is a great compromise between defederation and being more palatable to less extremely minded people. Anyone who wants to can still unblock the instances, and this way their users at least get to show up in outside communities and posts for everyone.

Seriously where on earth is your boyfriend from that he doesn’t know rain? That seems absurd, I’m sure even old school desert bedouins are familiar with the concept.
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 5 days ago:
If the ability to make your own feed without much defederation behind the scenes so to say I’d recommend lemmy.zip as an alterative. When I made my account I specifically looked for an instance that would defederate only illegal and mega fucked up shit like cp and gore. This instance offers that, and is federated with almost everyone.
- Comment on Too bad we can't all act like this 5 days ago:
Dude people on the phone when they shouldn’t is one of my pet peeves, I hate it so much. Especially because it makes me feel racist sometimes, since apparently the threshold of shame is a lot lower to just video call on speaker in public when people assume their surroundings don’t understand the conversation.
So many non white germans not giving a fuck about these things, makes me want to learn all these languages so I can embarrass the people by understanding their private talks. Honestly I think that’s the root cause, I can’t imagine that being customary in their places of origin.
As for the people who use their phone at the cinema, I have to seriously fight the urge to throw my 20 bucks concession stand coke at them.

That’s a lot of extra traffic, wow. Must be scrapers, agreed.
Anyway nice to hear everything is mostly sorted out again 🤞
- Comment on Fortnite returns to iPhone app store in US, ending exile imposed by Apple 2 weeks ago:
I have maybe a handful of people on lemmy tagged, if that. That means, those where the most stupid, ignorant, obnoxious, disingenious people, or otherwise not worth of serious discourse, to the point i felt it necessary to remember that with a tag.
Now this guy i have put down as “that weird guy who really loves corporations”. Make of that what you want for your conversation.

Panzarotti?
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Well good for you, i guess you cooking anecdotally in fine dining invalidates my experience entirely. All of a sudden the bread parts itself on my chef knife like the red sea for moses.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I definitely need a bread knife to properly cut good bread, if only for the teeth. The bread I eat is more dense and has a hard crust compared to say American wonderbread. I also like to dry out some of it and then double toast slices for that extra crunchiness. No way a smooth edge can deal with that.

“Taking obvious shitposts and comments dead serious” should also have a spot in there

Fair enough

You failed the assignment
- Comment on Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia? 3 weeks ago:
Why does he not use those headphones? It is generally accepted practice to make an effort to be quiet when you need noises, not make an effort to endure someone else’s crap.
So I’d say the responsibility is solely on his shoulders to stay fucking quiet. Why not blast all that noose to a headset?
- Comment on Happens 3 weeks ago:
I live in germany as well, und bin auch von hier. I still can’t recall the last time an acquaintance or friend would ask me this without actually wanting to know the answer though. Albeit I do know the sort of meme way of asking “Läuft?” - “Muss muss” as well. But that feels more analogous to the english howdy, a way of asking the question entirely as a greeting.
The way Americans do it seems more like asking your friend "hey, wie geht’s dir denn so in letzter zeit”.
- Comment on Never forget 3 weeks ago:
In light of that article i’ve been thinking about getting it as well (as a dude), good to hear you enjoyed it. Personally I’m partial to the seasonal flu shots, there really isn’t another that stings just right for 2 days.
- Comment on Never forget 3 weeks ago:
I hope you also both love getting HPV shots. A couple days ago there was a study linked around here that decidedly links throat cancer to cunnilingus.

- Comment on Reality vs. male delusion 3 weeks ago:
Women being confronted with a metric fuckton of average middle class men with not much else going for them is… Misogynistic?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Read it again, very slowly if that helps…
I am asking if you are mentally distressed
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Are you well?
Your post and comment history makes you seem a little unhinged.
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 3 weeks ago:
In the context of the Internet, yes that is a valid question in my opinion. They don’t want your literally address, they want to know your nationality. Being from place x generally means you also speak language y and have a cultural background of z.

State at launch might be not the best measurement of quality if they essentially revamped the whole game and added an entirely new area/storyline variations/skill system/tons of fixes and additions such as public transit to it.
If you like the setting and got turned off by the abysmal state at launch, I strongly recommend you give it another try.

Don’t worry, if they don’t you can just use ai to make them.
- Comment on Interview: Tawny Newsome On Finding The Sweet Spot For Her Star Trek Workplace Comedy 4 weeks ago:
Any show that tries to paint the federation as less than aspirational has entirely missed the point of trek, and the product is a stillbirth.
Pointing out flaws, or highlighting the morally grey areas like ds9 did is fine, because it still preserves the federation as a multicultural utopia.
- Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 4 weeks ago:
Tesla now sells the tri-motor Cybertruck for $100,000 and only has a range of 320 miles.
The dual-motor Cybertruck was supposed to cost $50,000 and have over 300 miles of range. In reality, it starts at $80,000 and has 325 miles of range.
So, the cheaper model with two motors (why even) has a larger range than the full price model with three motors™®?
LMAO.
- Comment on Genshin Impact Will Soon Require Age Verification in the United States 4 weeks ago:
There are very few companies outside the united states that care about the different legalities in each of the states. Much safer, cheaper, faster and efficient to just go with the strictest requirement for everything.
That’s like, Bavaria asking international corporations to make special preparations for them; or rather all 16 german Bundesländer. Not worth the effort
- Comment on great shoe idea 4 weeks ago:
You think a skilled tracker has never conceived the idea of fake tracks? Something like this exists in so many crime or detective novels and shows (of varying quality) it is almost a trope.
