Uh what? I don’t think “a few Europeans on discord” is any representative way. Although I think we have a bigger west east decide (sometimes even per country), but in Western (or northern or even southern) Europe that’s definitely more accepted than in the US.

And European representative surveys have shown trump would have lost like 80:20 here.

LLMs are one version of AI. It’s just one tiny part of AIs that are used every day, from chess bots to voice transcription, but they also are AI.

Would be interesting though

The Supreme Court is upholding the rule of law. If Musk refuses to take action on the massive propaganda and disinformation campaigns that are rampant on his platform and lead to a fascist (like a literal fascist who praised the military dictatorship and openly said it’s only mistake was not to torture enough) getting elected, banning it shows that the democracy is still defensive and able to protect itself.

We can’t let tech monopolies just ignore any democratic rule and do whatever they want.

The actual answer is pretty simple: Donating the body to “science”. Last Week Tonight recently made an entire episode about this: donating your organs and body and where it can end up (and especially in the case of donating the body, it can end up in all kinds of places).

So it’s ethically as in the people donated it and were aware of giving it away, but at least most of them certainly didn’t know that this is what their skulls could end up being used for.

They already got forced in the EU

This is awesome. But one question as I’m not so familiar with emacs: Why do they punish someone when trying to use emacs but not vi? Why do you see emacs as something works?

As a Rustacean, I’d rather use C than C++ for a small project.

Wait, Facebook did the same nonsense as well?

Yes. It may be a bit silly but I’m pretty happy / proud that I’ve had some contact with him while working on it :D

Ruffle: You may not know it but most old Flash games (and basically every anmiation) can be played again with this, modern and in a Browser sandbox. Website owners can include it in the backend with a few lines of code and all flash games work again automatically, and it’s also available as desktop app :D

IntelliJ at least has a good open source version and it’s free for students

Neither are you on TikTok, unless you actively go looking for it

That’s just genuine nonsense. The whole point of platforms like TikTok are the modern recommender systems that (simplified) lead to algorithmic radicalisation. Because these systems heavily optimise towards user engagement, they naturally spread misinformation and controversial content.
And because this kind of content statistically gets more user engagement as people commend on it and spend more time with it, it spreads quicker. This has also e.g. been confirmed by a leaked internal Facebook memo.

And additionally, these systems are personalised, so when you start to interact with it, you get more and more similar content. This leads to a radicalisation pipeline in which the platforms normalises these positions in echo chambers to you.

I don’t get your point. I’m against tech monopolies and I hate Google. I want Facebook to be split up and think that the current tech companies are way to powerful, see this video by Last Week Tonight. I use duckduckgo and try to avoid google services.

Don’t pretend to be doing any of this for any kind of moral high ground when you can’t even be bothered to look into something before arguing for it.

Lmao. How would you get the thought I wouldn’t have “looked into this”. That sounds like antivax level of arguments.

Everything you said is basically wrong.

And this gives me the feeling I’m much better informed than you tbh.
Because no, what I wrote is factually correct, read for example this, this or this or just so many more articles, outlining detailed how TikTok censors content made by minorities, talking about the Uighur camps or so much more.

I feel like you can’t grasp the thought that someone knows how bad many tech companies are and still can see that content behind TikTok is at least as terrible. And what I’m writing isn’t any more boomer-like than what you write, you even use the same talking points but are just ignoring any of TikTok’s flaws.

Am I a Reddit boomer when I’m 21 and like (some) Tiktok-esque kind of content?

I’ve never used TikTok, but not because I don’t get the idea of using audio as meme template or because I don’t like short videos. But just because that specific platform itself is so vile.
Not just talking about funding the Chinese government, TikTok e.g. reduces reach of neurodivergent people. Even worse, it censors information against China‘s authoritarianism and much more.

Why can’t I be happy that this awful platform loses reach? The content itself will be kept, there are enough copycats.

Also, Lemmy is full of people that stopped using Reddit for ethical reasons. So it’s not surprising many are against TikTok as well tbh.

Idk… you being forced to use your body against your will to reveal secret and private things sounds pretty awful to me

I see; I’ve seen quite some memes about swear words in code, therefore I thought about that. But makes sense, thanks. (I can’t relate to that either though.)

Personally unrelatable. I assume this is different in industry code but in both personal and open source projects I’ve never seen or used anything like that.

(And I’m really not against iNaPpRoPriAtE words; I think they’re not something bad to use and I often find it ridiculous how they’re frowned upon in US culture, e.g. movie ratings. But I still want to keep my code neutral / professional.)

The true horror is her hand
