Easier said than done:

1. Admit there’s a problem
2. Find a sustainable solution
3. Fight for the solution
4. Enjoy a better society

I think many people don’t realize they focus too much on short-term issues, which are actually symptoms of deeper systemic problems. For instance, the two-party system in the US stems from election campaigns not being publicly funded and also the “winner-takes-all” electoral system instead of proportional representation. I would bet you already know about these issues but still I don’t see them being discussed in media and that’s where every big change must begin. And that’s also what I think should answer your question. Instead of spreading awareness of the current problems at hand, you should focus on the deep issues and instead spread awareness of them. That’s my opinion at least.

Yeah and I’d say these people left are exactly those Elon wants, he doesn’t want white guys in their 50s, he wants obedient young guys.

Not trying to defend him, but I thought the reasoning behind doing that was to get the least obedient people to leave the company so that there won’t be a delayed push back from the employees.

Oh God the horrors. The only part of these errors I ever remembered was “basic_string” everything else was the syntactic gibberish you wonderfully demonstrated.

Human brains aren’t 1 bit models. Far from it actually, I am not an expert though but I know that neurons in the brain encode different signal strengths in their firing frequency.

Makes sense, thank you

Google Cloud counts about 60% of the world’s 1,000 biggest companies and 90% of generative AI unicorns as its customers

What exactly are generative AI unicorns?

I bet what they all have in common is that they all used advertising in order to get to their position.

What kagi can’t fix is that most forums nowadays don’t exist anymore and moved over to discord which is also a big reason for worse search results.

For example I had a technical problem with a device of mine, searched for maybe half an hour on Google until I joined a related Discord. Searching there in the support channel and I found the fix for my problem. Would Discord not exist and all the content be queryable by Google I would have found my answer within seconds.

Lmao blocking someone for criticism? Kinda cringe if you ask me.

That’s illegal in Germany though, right? AFAIK all ads must be disclosed as such.

Most if not all Minecraft servers aren’t related to Microsoft. There are lots of smaller servers with 5-20 regular players and of course there are few with hundreds or thousands of players, of which some might be affiliated with M$ but I don’t know.

Some services only accept whitelisted domains for accounts sadly.

The ECHR is separate to the EU.

Just me or does it look like the guy on the left is holding a hand puppet

Yeah I know but what about Lemmy instances?

Hm but don’t you automatically own the stuff you create yourself, as long as you don’t consent to giving it away? I don’t know the terms and conditions of my Lemmy instance though.

Never put the blame on the people. Imagine you are a being forcefully recruited to fight in war. You have family at home. You have hope. And therefore you stay passive. There are 8 billion people on earth, including you, who could try and take action. After all, why try if you can at least try to survive?

My words are a bit scattered, sorry for that, but I cannot stay calm when I see someone blame the people instead of the system. A revolution does not rise just because it seems fit. A revolution rises because oppression wasn’t fully successful somewhere. That’s my opinion at least. And if you look at history you will probably see the same patterns.

Also being sent to the western front isn’t automatically a death sentence. You could be wounded and be taken to hospital, you could be captured and be put in prison, you could also simply try and survive.

What’s the actual argument behind banning TikTok though? IMO it’s just so that US firms remain the monopoly in the social media market.
