Bleeding hearts rarely do their cause justice (referring to the person you replied to)

The kind of community people like this would create doesn’t need to exist anyway.

Flies, honey, vinegar, asshole.

Pick your terms.

Technically the parent protocol is IP.

In all my years I have never heard someone suggest that TCP is a catch all term.

Responding to you because you’re the most verbal here so far. I recently upgraded from an m1 pro 14" to an m2 max 16". Leagues above anything else on the market, IMO. But people still seem to be sticking to the M1 praise. Is it just market lag, or is there something about the M1 specifically?

Rather than be used for war, they’ll be used for threats of violence and propaganda

Surveillance is the word you’re looking for. Take all those NSA pipelines and run them through an AI and BAM, you’ve got your “terrorists”.

AI will be downfall of our technological society, but not because of killer robots and malevolent systems. It’s going to make everyone completely and utterly incompetent at everything in life.

100+ million years qualifies as right in the middle of “for long” in my book. The fact that an asteroid or comet of biblical proportions wiped them out has nothing to do with evolutionary effectiveness. Most of the animals that did survive either A) lived in water or B) lived underground.

The mice are running the litterbox over there, indeed.

Reddit is a complete and utter shithole.

This. I’ve had a Lemmy account for a while but reddit suspended me yesterday for calling someone stupid - after they made disparaging remarks about someone else. Their account was untouched. I know because I saw posts dated after my suspension.

I don’t know if Lemmy will work out or not, but Reddit has proven they’re not fit to moderate any significant portion of the web’s content and I can’t be bothered to consume and contribute in that environment any longer. I submitted an account deletion request with an extra slice of my mind on the matter.

We’ve had one misdirection yes, but what about second furry China men?

No, I think they mean “friends” sharing accounts.

In the grand scheme of things, do I think this is an issue? No. But it’s their service to decide what amount of sharing is appropriate. As long as there is no ceiling to the storage limit, people will abuse it. That’s all I get out of this - they’re tired of people abusing the generosity.

The truth is that leadership world wide only values privacy when it’s their own. Everything else is a big f’n show. Information is the single most valuable commodity on the planet and knowing your potential “opponents” is priceless. Maintaining power over others necessitates invading the privacy of others in the minds of 99% of people.
