- Comment on There's now more people that complain about AI then there is AI content on Lemmy 1 week ago:
AI seems to have dissolved your brain. You are not making any sense, even though you seem to think you are.
- Comment on Trump wanted a US-made iPhone. Apple gave him a gold statue. 1 week ago:
Because they know that that is really what he is. Everyone has him figured out now. That is why NATO and EU brownnoses him in front of journalists, or why Qatar “gifts” him an airplane.
- Comment on "ok, imagine a gun." 1 week ago:
There was once a theory that the reason for the difference in which side a vehicle is driving on the road today, stems from whether a country had many stretches of untamed wilderness with lots of bandits. So if there was a high likelihood that whoever you met on the road was a danger, the horsecart driver preferred passing them on the side of their sword arm (right hand as default), while if you did not have to take that into account, you would pass them on the left hand side.
The theory has now largely been abandonded as spurious, but it does remain a fact that there were dangerous stretches of roads in older times in Europe as well.
- Comment on Florida ounces 1 week ago:
No, none of that is true. You think it is easier to work with because it is what you are most used to. People who are only familiar with metric have absolutely no problem working with metric, and your “A foot is 12 inches, which has whole number factors of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. A yard is three feet” is basically goobledigook in that context.

It isn’t AI, it is just one of those facebook ragebait spam pictures which has flourished on the internet for decade now.

The point is that this never happened.

What about pfas?
- Comment on If a sandwich is defined as any food item between two pieces of bread, then a layer cake is a type of sandwich. 1 month ago:
Sandwiches predates him as well.
- Comment on Why is coal and fossil fuels still used? 3 months ago:
Correction, because a group of rich and powerful vested interests exploit that ignorance for shortsighted profit.
- Comment on Must secure the castle 3 months ago:
Definitely
- Comment on So true 3 months ago:
Is there a specific reason that type of food is only available after swimming?
- Comment on Trump tells Canadians to Elect the guy who'll make them the 51st State of US [Canadian elections today] 3 months ago:
He doesn’t need distractions anymore. He can do as he please, and he knows it. This is just him enjoying himself.
- Comment on Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads 3 months ago:
The message is aimed at his customers (ie. his advertisers), not for the potential users of the browser.
- Comment on China invites European countries to form united front against Trump tariffs 3 months ago:
Neuromancer as well (the book that is).
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Kind of. The traditional estates didn’t provide an even remotely fair representation to the third estate, so the talking broke down before it even started, since the third estate just said “screw this, we are making our own convention” before the estates had actually convened.
- Comment on In heat 3 months ago:
As per form for these “AIs”.
- Comment on This is real 3 months ago:
Truth doesn’t matter to them, only power.
- Comment on This is real 3 months ago:
One can hope, but most US veterans would gladly volunteer to be members of his death squads as soon as they get that far in their takeover.
- Comment on Trump administration orders halt to in-progress wind farm construction 3 months ago:
Noone is a foreigner on the world wide web. It is mainly Americans who expect everyone else on the internet to be Americans.
- Comment on I get that america is failing if it's duty to suppress the rise of fascist but did the rest of the world just put all its eggs in the america basket? 3 months ago:
Not going to happen. Europe is barely holding together as it is, and Russia/China are using just as much energy and resources in undermining it as they do in the US.
At best Europe can stick somewhat together enough to form a working defence and foreign policy for its own territory and near neighbours, but it is never going to be a global force.
- Comment on Cucumbers taste like the white part of watermelons 3 months ago:
It should be mentioned that Americans and Europeans seldom talk about the exact same thing when talking about cucumbers. The most common cucumber type in the US is a spiky bitter thing with a thick rind, while the most common in Europe is softer with a smooth rind, more watery and often much sweeter in taste (the type which Americans for some reason call the English cucumber).
- Comment on I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement 4 months ago:
Donald Trump has already called asbestos “100% safe”. His cultist followers will eagerly become pro-asbestos if he tells them to. And he will tell them to if someone pays him enough to tell them so.
- Comment on Smartphones and computers are now exempt from Trump’s latest tariffs. 4 months ago:
At least he made all his billionaire backers a lot of extra money from all of this.
- Comment on ooo.ooo 4 months ago:
There is no person which he trusts. So this is what everybody gets.
- Comment on What is anti-propaganda? 4 months ago:
The thing is that there have to be an incentive to receive and accept that logic. Something beyond logic.
You can’t use logic for someone who is completely emotionally invested in a cause. They need to somehow be open to contradiction, which most cultists certainly aren’t.
So in that respect it could be said that you didn’t logic yourself out of it, because you had already accepted contradiction to your beliefs before you started using logic.
- Comment on LinkedIn’s cofounder Reid Hoffman says seeking work-life balance is a red flag that you’re ‘not committed to winning’ 4 months ago:
The worst people on Earth are the ones who are constantly obsessing about “winning” every situation, so that makes perfect sense to me.
- Comment on If restaurants just microwave their food can I just get the frozen version and cut out the middle man? 4 months ago:
Shitty restaurants just microwave their food. Real restaurants actually cook the food. You could cut out the middle man by making your own food from raw ingredients.
- Comment on We are so cooked 4 months ago:
No “probably” about it.
- Comment on Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution. 4 months ago:
That’s not it. The right will lie about anything. If we change our beliefs to prevent the right from lying about us we would never have to stop changing our beliefs.
This is more about right wing militias hunting lqtb+ people under the guise of pedophilia.
- Comment on Assassin’s Creed Shadows devs roast Elon Musk amid feud with Hasan 4 months ago:
because surely he has nothing else to do right?
We should probably be thankful that that narcissistic manchild is so addicted to his social media. Imagine how much more destructive shit he could have accomplished if he actually put his mind to it.
