Then make those serious filters obligatory
- Comment on Google hit with $314m fine for collecting data from idle Android phones without permission 1 week ago:
So of the billions they made with that they have to pay a small fee.
Oh noes
- Comment on UCLA team finds high levels of dangerous air particles(PM2.5) in air near electric vehicle fast charging stations. 1 week ago:
I get what you’re saying but I’m not seeing this as “electric cars suck” but more as “we found another place where we can improve”
This seems to me an issue that can be fixed with a few air filters which would require very infrequent replacements
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 1 week ago:
Pretty much this for me too, only I already switched in 2002. It really wasn’t that hard leaving windows behind, even back then
- Comment on Mole or cancer? The algorithm that gets one in three melanomas wrong and erases patients with dark skin 1 week ago:
Though I get the point, I would caution against calling “racism!” on AI not being able to detect molea or cancers well on people with darker skin; its harder to see darker areas on darker skins. That is physics, not racism
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 1 week ago:
I’d say that it matters a whole lot as especially Jews ought to know better.
It also matter a lot because again it’s a religion directly feeding or being used as an excuse, for genocide. That is basically the one thing religion is really good for, making people feel okay about horrible actions
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 1 week ago:
Ehh…
The siege of Leningrad was about two major armies murdering the shit out of each other and the civilians
This is about a single country using its army to slaughter civilians. One is not the same as the other
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 1 week ago:
Sorry, but bullshit
Evil people do evil shit, but most people aren’t evil. If you want good people to commit evil deeds, you need religion
Take a look at just about all major evil events, religion was either the cause or was closely related to it or used as an excuse for the horrors
How many Israelis would be okay with mass child muder types genocides when you take away the “we are the chosen people from God” part?
- Comment on Racist AI-generated videos are garnering millions of views on TikTok 1 week ago:
I don’t know, don’t care either. If racists cat get AI videos to rank, it can’t be that hard to rank non hateful videos, or maybe even videos that hate on racists
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 1 week ago:
And what do you think will happen to pretty much all of them in one or two years time?
Come to think of it, i guess the US made a perfect system to quell protests; Just make it impossible for people to take time off work, nobody will be able to protest even your most sadistic fascist laws
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 1 week ago:
How about you stage a huge protest, and this time you don’t leave until Fuckwad McClowncar is out of the Whitehouse?
- Comment on Racist AI-generated videos are garnering millions of views on TikTok 1 week ago:
How hard is it to just make anti racist AI videos and then just flood TikTok with that?
I mean it’ll thin out the amount of racist trash, makes the chances smaller that people get confronted with that shit and then fall for it’s bullshit message
- Comment on Tech firms suggested placing trackers under offenders’ skin at meeting with UK justice secretary 1 week ago:
The 80’s tried to warn us but somehow these fuckers took it all as a manual

Lol at the dot for 1701, looks like there are loads of star trek fans
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 1 week ago:
The difference is that the IDF is comprised of Jewish military personnel and for “some” reason, these days you aren’t allowed to criticize any actions from anyone with said heritage.
It’s stupid, really.
If you’re an asshole, I will call you an asshole. Being Jewish has nothing to do with that equation
Right now, the Israeli government and the IDF are engaged in a genocide. Period. Them being Jewish, I don’t care. Right now these fuckers are literally no different from the Nazi army and, you know, Nazis. The worst thing of all, i guess, is that the irony of Jews acting like Nazis is completely lost on these fuckers. If at least they’d realize what they have become, maybe it could baseball bat smack some sense into their heads, but no.
Criticizing a Jewish military officer for committing genocide is the same as committing genocide on Jews. Or something. I don’t know, don’t ask me, it just doesn’t make any sense.
I guess this can be best summed up with “fuck all religions” because at the core this is just religion being used yet again to fuck over some group of people." Without religion, most people suddenly aren’t so happy to blow up little children, but with?
Our God said its okay!" is all the excuse the Nazis needed and its the same excuse that the extremist Israelis use to support their child murderers.

Same here.
Did you find a good way to export the Spotify playlist and get that torrented somehow?
- Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be? 1 week ago:
Those US nation wide protests that happened a few weeks ago did nothing. People already forgot about them. You’d neeto do that all day every day until trump is gone, hut that ain’t going to happen.

Good.
Let it disappear, that abomination isn’t supposed to exist in the first place
- Comment on Trump’s tax bill seeks to prevent AI regulations. Experts fear a heavy toll on the planet 2 weeks ago:
Interesting article but also useless in that nobody will do this, because nobody cares. This article suggests that everybody needs to cooperate in delaying AI and building good safety nets. Really? World wide cooperation? If the world has shown one thing it is that it deserves to be overtaken by AI. The world is 95% mostly okayish people who are, however, not willing to take on the psychopathic 5% that continuously think that THEY are worthy of being king, and so cause all the wars and misery we live in today

I hate this timeline
- Comment on The End of Publishing as We Know It 2 weeks ago:
If you want quality data, then don’t kill them
That is like telling cancer that if it wants to live it shouldn’t kill the host.
You’re asking a lot from people without the ability to think about anything else than themselves
- Comment on RFK Jr. Wants Every American to Be Sporting a Wearable Within Four Years 2 weeks ago:
I love how these extremist Christian Republicans always go on about the mark of the beast and how everyone will be forced to wear it but that the righteous man won’t wear it…
All of them will do this, mark my words. These fuckers are worshipping Satan as far as they know and they’re fine with it.

Dammit don’t make me switch to apple phones, I hate apple. I hate Google too but FFS all you need to do is stay out of my way and the one thing you continuously do is stand in my way…
GTFO of my way! Piss off with that AI crap that nobody asked for
