henfredemars,

You make me paranoid.

henfredemars,

Do you think someone would do that? Just go on the Internet and tell lies?

henfredemars,

At the upcoming presidential debate on June 27, Donald Trump plans to highlight a handful of horrific murders—allegedly by undocumented migrants—and blame them on President Biden. We know this because Trump told us so right on his Truth Social feed.

henfredemars,

I’d really like to see an improvement through copyright reform. Copyright periods are already ridiculously too long, but after a game runs its financial course, I think everyone should be free to do with it as they please. At a fundamental level, wasn’t this the intent of a functional copyright system? Is it not the intent to allow the creator to benefit while balancing the value against social good?

henfredemars,

Truely. Copyright terms are absolutely ridiculous and massively too long for their intended goal.

henfredemars,

Paywall.

But by the title, very disappointing to hear.

henfredemars,

Oof. Us and over one hundred of our closest friends.

henfredemars,

What do you mean? Divorce is at a 50 year low, and the average couple getting married today has more like a 75 percent chance of staying married. Your odds are especially good if it’s your first marriage.

The famous 50% figure doesn’t take into account that getting a divorce is correlated with getting another one, and the emerging generations are much more selective in who they marry.

Campaigns Can Now See What You Watch on TV. (www.notus.org)

Televisions that can stream platforms like Hulu or Max usually come loaded with technology that collects information on what viewers are watching, and buyers consent to have their viewing tracked when they open their new TV and click through terms of service agreements. Sometimes, data firms can connect those viewing habits to a...

henfredemars,

The year is 2024. I purchase a nice TV to shun nearly all of its features and never connect it to the internet because it’s designed to be actively malicious.

henfredemars,

Why should we be surprised? As a nation, we’ve shown the justices that there are no consequences. It seems they are not beholden to anybody.

henfredemars,

So the implication is that mass spying is the primary goal and protecting the children was the incidental part?

henfredemars,

Automation-prone fields like writing, software, and app development saw a 21% decrease in job listings

Maybe, but hard disagree that software is being automated away.

henfredemars,

It’s the concentration of money and its interests. It corrupts purpose.

henfredemars,

Part of me thinks they should’ve done it in the knight outfit, but he might be harder to recognize.

henfredemars,

Seriously though, what a terrible argument.

henfredemars,

I think you’re missing the last step where you put the hotdogs inside. Then you will not be empty.

Follow me for more tips.

henfredemars,

“Joe Biden’s unlawful effort to weaponize Title IX for his extremist agenda has been stopped in its tracks,” Paxton said. “Threatening to withhold education funding by forcing states to accept ‘transgender’ policies that put women in danger was plainly illegal. Texas has prevailed on behalf of the entire Nation.”

I didn’t know respecting gender identity was considered extremism. I’d call that human rights. If respecting human rights makes me an extremist, then I think judge is the one with the problem.

henfredemars,

I’d like to imagine writing such a phrase is covered with guilt, but I think we are beyond guilt.

I don’t believe humans are meant to manage loss in this way — stretching out an imitation of our loved one. As painful as it is, I personally believe humans need to say goodbye. I feel this gets in the way of feeling and truly accepting the loss so that a person can move forward.

Loss is truly heavy, but I do not believe this is better or healthy.

henfredemars,

I had this conversation with my wife once. I let her know that it is my advance wish that you must allow me to complete the cycle of life. Anything else, any reconstruction of me that technology allows, is to me, an abomination. Keep the pictures, keep the memories, but don’t keep me here when I am gone.

I refrain from judging the decisions of others where possible, but this is my personal wish.

henfredemars, (edited )

Meant, in this context, refers to the conditions that humans have faced over a long period of time and may be more suited to coping with from a survival point of view. I’m an atheist, so I find it strange that you chose to read my comment as highlighting intentional design. Certainly, AI has existed for a much shorter time than the phenomenon on a human encountering the death of a loved one. Indeed, death has been quite a common theme throughout history, and the tools and support available to cope with it and relate to other human experiences far exceed those for coping with the potential issues that come with AI.

I think one can absolutely speak of needs and adaptation for something as common a human experience as death. If you find something belittling about that opinion, I’m not sure how to address you further. I may simply have to be wrong.

henfredemars,

I remain optimistic. Instances should align with the views of a user, and I believe in the long-term people will sort themselves onto instances to make your blocking easier.

henfredemars,

Leadership based on fear and outrage.

Shame.

henfredemars,

Sir this is America. They would be shooting anyway.

henfredemars,

Posts direct content from news articles on Lemmy to save clicks and deny clickbait traffic.

henfredemars,

Or an acorn. Or sleeping…

henfredemars,

It’s almost like trying to please them or compromise is a fools errand.

henfredemars,

I understand the label is practically not enforced with very nominal fines if you’re found in violation.

henfredemars,

I think they tried that before it was cool. Something about the handling of the newer aircraft that was responsible for a few accidents.

henfredemars,

100%! The arguments I heard against building the station were asinine. The logic just doesn’t follow. For example, the train is dangerous to children? Well how about the actual highway that runs next to the track? Clearly that’s not a threat or dangerous to residents in any way. As we all know, cars are perfectly safe. One little girl gets hit by the train and we ignore all the deaths of the children from auto accidents. The rail is overwhelmingly safer.

I’ve lived in this town for quite a long time and it’s a common occurrence to see cars stopped on the train tracks. While we have plenty of idiots, I can hardly blame the train if a car gets hit. It should always be the fault of the vehicle.

henfredemars,

My stupid town hasn’t even succeeded in preventing the train from passing through. They just don’t want a station here so no one can benefit from the train. What a stupid stupid policy.

henfredemars,

A quick search says while the mayor is wealthy, I couldn’t find any information on business assets. I think this comes more from a culture clash or crisis of identity that makes the train look dangerous.

henfredemars,

I appreciate the thoughtful response. I think I understand that the vehicle is connected deeply with identity, but no one’s threatening to take away their vehicles. I’m surprised that public transportation is taken so personally.

If you don’t like the train, you don’t have to take the train. But, that’s not enough. They don’t want the train to be available to me either. It’s weird. It’s taken one step further into a fuck you I’ve got mine attitude.

henfredemars,

It’s especially weird because I’m not even confident that building a train station would lower your property values.

henfredemars,

Ah, it sounds like you understand my rage at the needless inefficiency. The clear and obvious solution, denied because of feelings.

henfredemars,

I wasn’t aware of any complaints about the trains for years prior to the passenger rail company joining in; it was only when trains carrying people entered the picture that the protesting began claiming that these trains are unsafe and unwanted, but the arguments I’ve seen on signs etc. aren’t related to passenger rail specifically. Perhaps the passenger rail stoked fears that the rail traffic would expand further.

Every railroad crossing is clearly marked, with multiple redundant flashing signals and moving barriers that get directly in the driver LOS. I’ve seen drivers push through the barriers to squeeze just ahead of or behind a moving train a handful of times in the past five years, but that’s about the same number of blatant red light runners I’ve seen in the same.

henfredemars,

We need those denser deployments: we have a growing population, a homeless problem, and a lack of affordable housing. This is even ignoring the traffic issues on the nearby highways. It’s bad, but the message to me is clearly that we don’t want to solve any of these problems.

henfredemars,

I think something to do with plants maybe?

henfredemars,

90% of traffic engineer stop adding lanes right before traffic is solved.

henfredemars,

I hope it’s better than the previous game. I just couldn’t get into it.

henfredemars,

I really enjoyed this game. Had a Stanley Parable vibe.

Spoiler experience with the endingTook quite a while for me to realize that the princess behaves exactly in the manner in which you treat her, although I’m really not sure that I understood the ending with the crow.

henfredemars,

I’ve seen it get turned on all by itself after a feature update. Maybe it can help.

This is her business computer so it needs to be Windows sadly.
