This link details a saga where a lone blogger discussed their concerns and issues with Kaginonly for the post to blow up and ends with Kagi’s CEO harassing the blogger like a fucking “debate me” chud.
Read the whole thing, read the email thread between lori and Vlad and come to your own conclusions. But just to me Vlad comes off as abrasive, harassivez and wanting to shove his opinions down other people’s throats as if they were gospel.

- Comment on AI Experts No Longer Saving for Retirement Because They Assume AI Will Kill Us All by Then 5 days ago:
Seriously. Even if an AI gets “nuclear codes” how the fuck are they going to jump into an air gapped system with about a 60th of the CPU cycles and RAM they need to operate? This doomerism is fucking unhinged and literally requires pretending that AI can somehow just jump into any old computer and that ee totally don’t have massive server farms just to have them function at all with high-level computers supporting them with high speed CPUs and massive amounts of RAM and storage. They don’t have a fucking body, for one thing, and for two no current iterations do anything at all like thinking, they all have to he prompted. They don’t start conversations on their own.
It’s so fucking stupid, it’s the fantasies of childish fucking nerfs.

Well I mean, it does say “Kirkland signature” not “made in Kirkland.”
They’re just putting their signature on it.
- Comment on If copyright on a work expired immediately after death, would be that a bad or good idea? 1 week ago:
rufuspollock.com/…/optimal_copyright_term.pdf
Research by mathematician Rufus Pollock in 2009 pegged optimal copyright length at 15 years, regardless of time of authorial death. So if I copyrighted something at 30, I would lose the copyright automatically at 45, even if I lived to 90.

- Comment on Americans’ junk-filled garages are hurting EV adoption, study says 1 week ago:
Some of it is worth money but it’s not being sold or anything.
My mother refuses to admit she’s a hoarder, and none of her things are really valuable. She’s clean, it’s not like she lives in filth, but she lives in 4000 square feet (main floor + basement) and has three full wall closets plus a room in the basement all filled with every item of clothing she has ever owned. I can barely fill a small closet with all my clothing. Her closets aren’t small, either. They are about 15 feet wide, each. So three 15 feet wide closets absolutely crammed with shit, and each one of them has storage space broken into three sections, about three feet tall each above each closet. Everything is crammed full. None of it is ever pulled out to be used for anything. She has all these things from her family she has kept for “memories” but 1. they mean nothing to me because I hate my extended family and 2. I won’t be able to afford to store them and won’t have reason to when she’s gone.
I don’t fucking get it, it’s a massive house, and it’s just stuffed to the fucking brim with crap crap crap!

These are what the separator lines for groups of comments look like on the web version of Lemmy. It’s implying there’s a lot of responses, at least 10, by the number of lines, and perhaps even more arguing under various responses.

You can’t stop him, you can’t reason with him, you can’t kill the boogeyman.
And you obviously couldn’t afford a decent Donald Pleasance soundalike yeesh.
Also this game company has an abysmal history of post-release support.

I mean, from the little bit of gameplay I saw, it seems like all his moveset from the original Bubsy is back and they’re leveraging it well for 3d platforming.

Didn’t the same movie have Hawkgirl pulling a Pinochet on the bad guy though? Weren’t they happy enough with that?
- Comment on Dying Light 2 Removes Stamina from Parkour System 1 week ago:
Totally agreed. Kyle Crane is pretty forgettable, I had do look his name up, in fact I had to look both the protagonists names up.
The funny thing about the Kyle Crane stuff is that for anyone with even a passing interest in media other than video games… you’ve heard Roger Craig Smith’s voice everywhere for over a decade now! He’s one of the most prolific and easily forgettable voice actors there is! Not only was he the voice for Sonic the Hedgehog in a litany of cartoon and video game iterations, but he’s just in nearly anything you can think of that requires voice acting. He literally was in 122 episodes of Cartoon Network’s regular show playing about 170 different characters, including Thomas, a character whose entire arc is based on a joke about how shows add new characters and then focusing on them and constantly avoiding focus on Thomas and making him ridiculously boring! In fact, episodes where he played Thomas were airing during the time that Dying Light released.
I don’t know how they ever thought Roger Craig Smith was going to be remembered as the action hero everyone loved. I mean, I love me some Roger Craig Smith, but way more for being a fucking goofball than being a gritty action hero.
