- Comment on human geography 1 week ago:
how to pronounce “Appalachia” is a contentious subject. Harpers Ferry and south we say “App-uh-latch-(ee)-uh” (the ee is in parentheses because it’s such a small sound most wouldn’t hear it). north of harpers ferry they say “app-uh-lay-tcha”. then there’s one small town of mostly people descended from eastern Europeans who say it “app-uh-lack-(ee)-uh”. fun fact, tekking on YouTube, the manga reviewer, is one of those weirdos who are somehow both simultaneously the most wrong and less wrong than most northern Appalachians.
i mean come on, the name comes from the appalachee tribe, and the “lach” there is pronounced mere like “latch” than “laych.” at least with “lack” i can reason through that my Ukrainian friend can absolutely not say her "ch"s the way western Europeans do so if you have an insular community of people that pronunciation will stick.

i had someone here on lemmy try to say the scientists recruited to the US via operation paperclip weren’t involved in crimes against humanity. a lot of people have missed in the shuffle of the past 80 years exactly what happened during the holocaust.

- Comment on YOU HAVE NO POWER HERE 1 week ago:
good for them. that’s what you’re actually supposed to do. that is, however, not the norm with conservative chuds. most will drop kilobuck or more money on an AR platform, and then shoot for shit with it because they don’t have a good enough scope to utilize their high precision barrel.

- Comment on Perplexity AI is complaining their plagiarism bot machine cannot bypass Cloudflare's firewall 1 week ago:
see, but they’re not competent. further, they don’t care. most of these ai companies are snake oil. they’re selling you a solution that doesn’t meaningfully solve a problem. their main way of surviving is saying “this is what it can do now, just imagine what it can do if you invest money in my company.”
they’re scammers, the lot of them, running ponzi schemes with our money. if the planet dies for it, that’s no concern of theirs. ponzi schemes require the schemer to have no long term plan, just a line of credit that they can keep drawing from until they skip town before the tax collector comes

A n*gger is a race neutral term nowadays
no. no it’s not. people know its origins and who it’s referring to. to deny this is a form of sealioning. fqck off with that
It essentially means someone that takes far more than they will ever contribute, and in that respect, he’s absolutely correct
attaching this meaning to it is a form of dog whistle to get people to associate these traits with plack people. you are doing the propaganda work of white supremacy right now.

okay. his background in CS remains a couple of classes before dropping out. i graduated from college around when he would have and this was every fucking CS major their freshman year. he talks about programming the same way every revolutionary code messiah who had coded some mildly impressive utilities does before they spend time studying the theory behind computation and learn what the real limitations of these things are. but VCs love the code messiahs. hence SVB going bankrupt. none of these dudes are as smart as they’ve convinced the rest of the world they are

they’re solid starting point for shopping now that wirecutter, slant, and others are enshittified. i hate it and it makes me feel dirty to use, and you can’t just do whatever the llm says. but asking it for a list of options to then explore is currently the best way i’ve found to jump into things like outdoor basketball shoe options
