- Comment on X advertisers stay away as CEO defends Musk’s “go f*** yourself” interview 11 months ago:
“Who or what is harming his free speech” - I never made that claim. You’re talking to your own mind, not mind, and trying to incite a response in me with your dismissive tone. Have a nice day.
- Comment on X advertisers stay away as CEO defends Musk’s “go f*** yourself” interview 11 months ago:
Free speech is certainly under threat. Arguments against free speech have never been as popular as they are now in the U.S., for instance.
- Comment on X advertisers stay away as CEO defends Musk’s “go f*** yourself” interview 11 months ago:
I agree with you. Except, many don’t - look at Europes speech laws.
- Comment on X advertisers stay away as CEO defends Musk’s “go f*** yourself” interview 11 months ago:
Lemmy might hate me for this… Musk is a pure right wing troll at this point, but he’s right on speech. It’s not often that those in power will have the right moral compass to say what ideas can be said and what cannot. Without free speech protections, none of the LGBTQIA+ movement, or other social movements, would have taken hold. It sucks that right extremists will espouse hurtful views, but it’s absolutely critical that the speech of minority voices be protected. What will the world be like if the assholes win and say the only right speech is something that would completely abhor us today. Look at speech in Russia. I believe the country has just designated LGBTQIA+ activists terrorists. What will happen if the wrong people get power in the USA or Europe?

This is really smart. Considering tail light will get you pulled over, this can save you some pain. I never figured out a good way to check on my own. Thanks!

Yeah, I’m always second guessing my math too, lol. I think it should billion not million in this case.
- Comment on There's no money for education and health care but they'll always find some for war. 11 months ago:
Sure, I agree we can get cheaper healthcare, but $14 billion amounts to like $40 bucks per American. Not buying many more healthcare and schools with that. This meme (at least the second part) is stupid and won’t convince anyone who supports Israel aid to change their minds because the math is not convincing. Makes for a weak argument, imho.

$14 billion is like $40 bucks per American. Might be able to buy a toothbrush and some bandaids with that healthcare money.

Hey what percent is $14 billion of the $4.3 trillion Americans spend on healthcare?

I’m sorry you are getting downvoted in a shitpost sub. Some people are just kinky mammajammas with a high propensity for actively expressing angst in an anonymous online forum. Maybe this will cheer you up, mate, maybe these downvotes are really upvotes from down under (or up over!). You never know. The thing about cultures is, it’s difficult to clearly understand a particular social totem, such as a typical behavior for a certain role in any given group, however, the sheer juxtaposital quality of modern life demands we make decisions regarding how we treat the inevitable multicultural conflict that will arise. The best we can to is jerk ourselves off, if no one else will. Cheers mate, let’s jerk ourselves off together, and together do our part to cover the world in sticky, sticky love.

I’m sorry you’re getting downvoted in a shitpost sub. Some people who can’t love themselves try their best to make sure others share in their pain. It’s ok. I found your joke lighthearted and amusing, and my day is better for it. I hope you have a great day, too. Do we ever stop to think about how today is one out of a limited amount we will live? Surely, under such circumstances, I want my brothers and sisters to experience as little pain as possible. It seems only right. Sometimes that amounts to tough lessons, but what use is a chide without a correction? It comes down to indecency - a decent person passes negative judgements in a constructive, not a dismissive way. But, unfortunately, your fellow humans are not always so enlightened. What then? Well, I suppose we must carry their pain for them, along with our own, and we must resist the temptation to pass our pain off on others. Over time, this builds character - and when you can recognize quality character in others, you can form alliances and work together to teach others to likewise build character. It becomes a rather rewarding process, over time. Cheers my friend. Let us join our good will together, and together be a force for kinship, love, empathy, and stoutheartedness in this fragile, broken, but beautiful world. Peace my friend - I love you when even no one else will. Don’t ever forget that! And think of my from time to time, my friend!

This guy looks like he’s gonna try and have an intellectual convo with Dr Jones, even though he’s sold his integrity to the Nazi’s at the chance to unleash the true evil power of streaming services. But Dr Jones won’t have it and this guy will be whipped milk before he’s done. The end
- Comment on Meta sparks privacy fears after unveiling $299 Smart Glasses with hidden cameras: ‘You can now film everyone without them knowing’ 1 year ago:
Yeah, I can see that. I held out from Meta/FB for years for my data’s sake until I started dating a woman in South America and now I have to have What’sAp.
I would love a private version, too, yes, where I had full control over my data. If Meta is taking basic metadata here, such as location, I think I would still use it, but if they are accessing the actual footage, or getting way to granular with the metadata, then yeah I guess that’s a bit more alarming. Still, it’s not far from what we already have today. You have to fight to not have all your behavior tracked.

I’m all for it. If I can walk through the grocery store and AI can track all the prices on everything and help me budget, i would think that’s pretty cool. Or, if I need to check back what a professor said in class and work on the board, boom no problem. I can see people not wanting to get filmed, but aren’t we already being filmed constantly already? Now I get to film for my benefit.
