⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:
Only Microsoft wants to upgrade. A product without a market in a monopoly is capitalism end game.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is testing full-screen Microsoft 365 ads in Windows 11 for expired subscriptions⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
They have this in Windows 10…to advertise Windows 11.

It’s news and the adults in the room have not just a right but a responsibility to remain informed.

I’m not legally allowed to say yes.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The McDonald's employee who called on Luigi has never received their "reward", folks chasing the 100k for Kirk may not either...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Even if the tip was useful they can just claim to wasn’t and just not pay it out. Not like there’s an oversize process for it. Once they have the guy they can find the trail with whatever data they have and say they did it without the tip.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah he was a straight up psychopath. Preferring sympathy means pitying the fate of others but not feeling their experience. Psychopaths generally see themselves a superior to others and pitying people for not being as awesome as they are, while also being confused about the experience of empathizing is exactly what a psychopath does.

Lemmy needs to stop obsessing over everything Reddit does.

Just Psychopath shit.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Startup Flock Thinks It Can Eliminate All Crime In America⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
No people, no crimes.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Did he actually say that? That literally what genuine psychopaths say.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About Star Trek Starfleet Academy blacklash⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Until Star Trek returns to technological optimism and the pursuit of human improvement, I’m not interested. Take your high school, technologically cromagnon melodramas and shove them up your ass.

“Correctly”…
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Funny how its always so important to ban useful and empowering things for citizens in the name of safety but someone we can’t ban business practices that cause mass extinctions, change the climate, impoverish the working class or kill enough of us to only be seen as a statistic instead of people. If they actually cared about safety, they would be banning the things that cause mass suffering and death, not VPNs. We should be opposed to these kinds of bans on the principle that it further disempowered us so we are less able to deal with the threats of all the mass suffering and death that they refuse to keep us safe from.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Making sure you pay the absolute most possible for everything you buy. Welcome to tyranny capitalism. You will be charged a poor tax in the form of optimised pricing exploitatuon.

We could all stop them. What’s the hold up?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palantir accuses British doctors of choosing ‘ideology over patient interest’ in NHS data row⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
K.

So one group has trained for decades to heal the sick and provide guidance to be more healthy and the other spent it’s time learning how to take as much as possible from their customers.

Which one is more likely to align with the patient’s interest?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Take a deep breath and think about it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You hope for it in the future because it doesn’t exist in the present.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I’m not voluntarily giving up jack shit unless the wealthy who devised and profit off the systems that make carbon footprints matter, are brought to heel. If the wealthy can’t be stopped, we’re all dead anyways. It’s their fucking mess, they can be the ones to sacrifice to fix it.

If the economy doesn’t need 25% of the populace to keep functioning…what happens?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
So somewhere they feel safe to do so. Says something pretty fucked up about our culture that men don’t feel safe to open up anywhere. And no, it’s not their own fault.

Consumer activism kills businesses and products regularly. We call it ‘trends’.

But manufacturing a boycott for long enough to work is almost certainly going to fail. But like you say, it has a role to play, just not by itself. It must be an action used with precision as part of a larger strategy. We have plenty of tools, but nobody puts them together. It’s always an isolated boycott that flairs up and inevitably fades away. The company just waits it out. We also can’t boycott necessities, and that’s where they really get us. Consumer activism doesn’t work all in those cases.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is Not⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Of course we have to have a way to manually check the training data, in detail, as well. Not privacy, just verifying training data.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You're not alone: This email from Google's Gemini team is concerning⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Yet we keep empowering them with every purchase we make and half of the consumer base will never see an issue doing so. Some purchases we have no choice but to make, and that’s where they really have control of our lives. They seized the means of production, distribution and access of things necessary for life and leverage access to those necessities for access to more parts of our private lives. The majority appear to be naive morons who will happily sell all of us down the river for more camera filters and some pretty shoes. Basically, toys.

That sounds more like gluttony, which isn’t exclusive to food
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the seven deadly companies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, probably.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the seven deadly companies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Amazon doesn’t really fit imo. All the others allow the user to pursue the sin, Amazon isn’t letting users pursue greed. RobinHood or betting apps would be better.
