- Comment on Elon Musk's Social Platform X has filed a lawsuit agains Minnesota, challenging a law banning political deepfakes 3 days ago:
X’s lawsuit claims the law’s “requirements are so vague and unintelligible that social media platforms cannot understand what the statute permits and what it prohibits.”
The with this argument is that social media platforms aren’t required to enforce it? www.sos.mn.gov/media/5626/deep-fake-overview.pdf

He doesn’t even know you, and a ctrl-f of your profile shows you’ve commented on 3 Elon posts in the last 10 comments. He lives in your head rent-free

SCMP has always sided with mainland China on crux issues, but I’ve read them on and off for nearly 10 years now and have found them to be very reliable.
In fact, this is exactly what the Wikipedia page for reliable sources says about it too: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/…/Perennial_sources

That would be a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Private game servers, fan remakes of shows and movies, I would be over the moon.
Too bad it won’t happen
- Comment on Determining the reason no one replied to your Lemmy post. 2 weeks ago:
I think the community matters a lot more than the instance. Hexbear has a bunch of coping bubble communities but they keep posting the same low-quality comments, so that’s probably why the threshold of 20 comments is so high. Another example, I make posts to my own blog community !dginovker_blog@lemmy.ml, but there’s no subscribers so there’s never gonna be any comments.
Basically I’m saying you should do this same analysis across a sample of random communities ^^

I agree that the left is just putting labels on everything but why are you against them emigrating? Are you actually afraid of people who will leave instead of sinking together?

This is the correct answer. If people aren’t answering all your questions, your not formatting your questions properly.

I was a free speech absolutist until I went to Ruqqus, another Reddit alternative. I learned pretty quickly that people don’t care about truth, and will just spread hate unchecked.
So yup.

On average, around 3.5 new videos were uploaded to the platform every hour, many of which were previously unknown to law enforcement.
Absolutely sick and vile. I hope they honey potted the site and that the arrests keep coming.

- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Compared to outside of the US, this is true, but within the US he was pretty leftist. He publicly supported UBI, pushed for renewables, donated to the Obama and Hillary campaign, etc. Now he’s anri-trans, pro-Trump x1000, but there used to be a time he cared.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
The left has undeniably alienated some of their group (my mum was alienated by trans rights, I was alienated by the DNC, Elon was allegedly alienated by Biden’s EV push ignoring Tesla), but I think the bigger problem is the left doesn’t fight for things people care about.
The right are the only ones in the news cycle (look at how many articles we have about Trump, even when he wasn’t president) which, to anyone who doesn’t treat politics like sports teams, makes you obviously see a thing or true that you support Republicans on. This imo is the critical flaw of the left; I now have no reason to be excited about their platform, and I’m completely numb to anything they say negatively about Trump.
- Comment on Should tech companies be required to report AI’s environmental impact, or is voluntary transparency enough? 5 weeks ago:
It’s a loaded question, if the transparency reports are enough they’ll likely cover whatever the law requires.
The real question is basically should companies report environmental impact; I’m on the fence for this. It sounds good on paper, but will it cause investment overseas and is it the most useful place to burden companies?
- Comment on Why A Record 8.9 Million Americans Are Working Multiple Jobs 5 weeks ago:
When you’re applying to jobs, you should be a little more diligent about picking up the phone and checking your email. It’s unusual for the response to go to the spam folder, but I guess now you know? Go apply some more, and watch your spam folder this time.
- Comment on Divided and conquered 5 weeks ago:
I really don’t understand this comment (maybe I need to go to sleep), but I don’t see OP referring to any culture war, and I can’t say Republican’s are the only ones inciting culture wars (they might be inciting the ones I disagree with, but it is a culture war to push for equal rights)
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 5 weeks ago:
Can’t mass protest if you don’t have a way to get people in one location. United States car infra prevents that.
Source: seen mass protests, seen “US protests”. Night and day difference
- Comment on How do the Republicans feel about Project 2025 now? 5 weeks ago:
Honestly we knew that, even if Trump wasn’t involved, the people around him were. Y’all are too gullible. Even today I see posts on Lemmy about “Elon did this, Trump did that”, pure noise draining out the real news that happens once or twice a week.
