    Do you feel AI is going to be as bad as the movies say?

  • Not a buzzkill. You're engaged and that is the point. It is not my dog and not my picture. I'm just fishing the internet for fresh stuff for all of us to enjoy and engage with socially my friend. Don't be embarrassed or ashamed of being a good person that cares. You did not make it judgemental about me personally, and that is all that really matters to me. I posted it because I care about you stranger. The fact that you care too is a beautiful thing. Thanks for being a good digital neighbor, friend.

  • I think it is strange how well I can solve immediate problems, but how easy it is for me to let my curiosity take me too deep into a rabbit hole of a mess over much larger periods of time and routines.

  • I'm deleting this attempt to generate reasonable discussion and conversation if you guys can't be fucking positive and adults. Downvoting and passive aggressive behaviors are like a bunch of fuckwit children. I don't give a shit about this. I'm just trying to add a little depth to a place without much at all.

  • It generated lots of discussion on 4 Chan.

    I do not follow the political clown show's dichotomy. I know Sabine Hossenfelder has shown emails from people at Fermi lab indicating otherwise after they complained about her outing junk science.

    I basically only watch people with advanced degrees making edutainment type content. So I don't know the wider scope.

    Edit: I changed it to "US" in the title. I am probably going to delete the whole thing though. I despise downvoting children. They deserve their idiotic echo chambers.

  • I have experienced this. It is not a hypothetical. I was physically disabled while riding a bicycle to work. I had my business tanked by these shits. I had my commercial driver's licence ruined. I've been all but killed by this issue. There is far more nuance here. Don't be an ass.

    It is not even my fault. She was a cheater.

  • Social stigma causes the damage. None of that is valid or real from a high level abstractive perspective, but gaining such a perspective is a product of middle age. Most social stigma is born from ignorance, backwardness, and dogma. These are also protection mechanisms inherent to youth.

    A bit of unsolicited advice, child services is no one's friend. The agents are paid on commission. The system is not balanced or fair. If you have custody, you can push to settle and set amounts lower. If you do not stay involved or become indifferent towards the child's father, child services will likely destroy his life. The suicide rate is not well tracked but is generally known to be much higher. The entire system is built around a bygone era when anyone could simply show up and get a well paid factory job with a sufficient income to own a home and live a life as a primary breadwinner with a stay at home partner. No one alive today without inherited wealth can earn an income to survive with a 30%-40% margin removed. At a young age, such an extreme expense prevents a person from ever getting established on a solid career path. It cuts off many potential career paths that lack stability. Becoming unemployed will ruin a person dealing with child services. Most of the best paying jobs are unstable. Child Services is incentivised to exploit this in a way that ruins lives. You may have the power to change this if you care and can see the big picture.

  • Inflation, but also scale of manufacturing and tooling.

    I was a Buyer for a chain of bike shops. You will not buy the same stuff forever. Continuous manufacturing is also generally much more expensive. Most cheap modern goods are made through contract manufacturing. That creates the cycle of seasonal products. Even something like cars involves a tooling cycle where the same stuff cannot be made indefinitely; the tools wear out with time. The market saturates with any given design. All people do not want to drive a Toyota Corolla from 1992 in beige.

  • It takes a critical mass of like minded people.

    That is not really the point here. The actual question is more about stopping the evolution of hardware and software deprecation, like creating a minimum system that is never updated.

  • The people that want to make money are not de facto legitimate. Some people want analog slavery too. Some people want fascism. Some people are serial killers. Some people are Google. I see no value in those people. They do not create content I find interesting. The things they fund are opposed to my principals and democracy. Those people buy and sell a part of me to exploit and manipulate me. Those people are criminals. Those people are bad neighbors and have no place in our communities and neighborhoods. We have a right to open public commons free from piracy, pillaging, and slavery. That is the fundamental flaw. The internet is public commons, not a slave market.

  • AITA for using the fact that I have a degenerative eye condition that will make me randomly go blind as a reason to ask my SO with body dysmprohic disorder to let me see them naked more often?

  • Anyone else got a weirdly low pain threshold?

    Jump

  • Things change when you've experienced REALLY really bad pain. One kinda cool part about my experience is that I know the pain threshold of my conscious mind and how that relates to what is happening elsewhere in my body. I'm indifferent to the pain now. I'm bothered by physical limitations involving the failure of muscles. The pain is just like an annoying alarm going off too loud.

    Like I just watched Invictus' edutainment upload on Roman contact with India in 20 CE. The story included an Indian man that self immolated silently. I could easily do that. I have not always been like this, but after 11 years of constant major pain, it is trivial. I've broken bones since and actually felt better as a result or they didn't really phase me. The super deep stuff is what changed my perspective about all the rest. I feel parts of my spine no one should feel. Like every morning I wake up, press my tongue at the back of my throat, and push my head back lightly on the pillow to pop my vertebrae at the base of my skull and upper neck. The location of C1 actually feels like it is within the conscious mind, a very odd feeling popping that one, doubly so when it feels gritty... Don't break that one. Not recommended.

  • how many communities have you been banned from?

    Jump

  • My main account got banned from something like 8 because one admin person went nuts. I went through my log and was like, WTF, I never even commented there.

    I got two temporary bans from people that had no credible logic skills or objective thinking. One of those was a Lemmy dev. And that is why I'm on piefed now.

    There are some crazies, but I think we all need to normalize just being nice digital neighbors. Life is too short and negative. If you don't like something, just ignore it. Don't engage or escalate or down vote. None of us are that important, and being negative makes things worse for all, including, if not especially yourself.

  • Still depends on the relationship, person, and intent. I can't speak for others. I may react initially negatively, but I am open to coercion.

    Crime is really about intent more than any other factor. Manipulation and coercion can be done with positive and negative intent. If a person manipulates me at a clever level with the best of intentions, I have no problem with it, but again, I only speak for myself.
