- Comment on YouTube secretly used AI to edit people's videos. The results could bend reality 3 days ago:
Well, youtube is not even intended to host quality content anymore, But besides that, this appears to just be visual tweaks. This title is trying to be vague enough that one could assume it’s tweaking the content itself which would be of real concern. It’s not doing that (for now). Video graphics seems like an awefully minor thing to be screaming about AI over. Especially when AI has actual reprocussions in the knowledge accuracy sector.

It really does!
- Comment on Reddit is using AI to determine users beliefs, values, stances and more based on their activity (posts and comments) summarizing it to Subreddit Mods. 6 days ago:
Nah, I think all of it is literally just public data offered up by users themselves. If you didn’t want those opinions shared, you shouldn’t have posted them on Reddit.

What Iis the game, if I may ask? We might be able to better help if you just tell us. Because none of us want you to feel entrapped by MS.

- Comment on 50 percent off and buy 1 get 1 free are the same deal. 3 weeks ago:
I was merely saying that those ‘specific conditions’ occur half of the time though, so I do not beleive that is entirely crazy to say they are not so different.
- Comment on 50 percent off and buy 1 get 1 free are the same deal. 3 weeks ago:
Y’all, they are not wrong mathematically if you are buying things in pairs, it only doean’t work if you are buyng an odd number of things. So not entirely as wrong as you all seem to be indicating…

You say this as if Granny doesn’t have tea and crumpets with the person who can sell her that tiny house every saturday. If she wants to downsize afordably, she should take it up with her ‘Golden Age Bookclub’ buddies who own all the other houses and set the market…

Most prepaid cards such as prepaid visas can be checked for free on the site, no? That has been my experience anyway…

If you can afford a second home, you can afford to pay a bit more tax on it to benefit the public good.
This part applies. It’s not about directly getting a house for the homeless in this case, it’s the fact that they can CLEARLY afford to pay more tax.
- Comment on Apple Just Proved They're No Different Than Google 1 month ago:
Oh ok, if that’s what it was actually about, I get disliking the format. But I completely agree with you about not downvoting a relevant post.
- Comment on Apple Just Proved They're No Different Than Google 1 month ago:
It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples “holier than thou” mentality more evidently true.

Thx, fixed that now!
- Comment on Breaking: Netflix has made another minor change for their subscribers. 1 month ago:
That’s why I suggested trusted vpn companies. Proton keeps no logs, so they couldn’t hand it over if they wanted to. I also suggested VPN as opposed to TOR because TOR can be fidely, and complicated because of that to a non-techy person (which is what this person had said they were). The speeds of TOR are also not good for streaming.
- Comment on Breaking: Netflix has made another minor change for their subscribers. 1 month ago:
I beleive this is where dbzer0 would come in… So basically, you are going to want a VPN first, which they are pretty easy to get and use and there are plenty of resources online, I would suggest going for a trusted one such as Proton VPN or Nord VPN. Then as for how to actually get movies/shows, you are going to want to install firfox (if you don’t have it) and then add the ‘ublock’ extention to block popups and other nasty things. Then once you have that, you can check out the sites in our megathread, they are safe and trusted: rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv . Let me know if you need more help. :)
