With no offense intended, I feel this could be worded a little better. It could also just be my tired brain, though.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Except, as far as I can tell, the system is designed such that citizens can’t make them change it-- what are you going to do, vote for nobody and force the government to fix it’s shit before electing a new president? I mean, you could revolt but I think we all know how quickly the government would act to squash any meaningful attempt to. And if Project 2025 is allowed to play out, then military can be dispatched to handle simple protests instead of the police, so good luck pressuring the government to do anything at that point.

They already put snipers on rooftops at every University for the Palestine protests. Supposedly this was for public safety as there was intel that things would turn violent, but who really knows the truthfulness of such intel or where the order came down from? When the military becomes your police, this act would pale in comparison.

Remember this when you go to the polls, or when you are considering not to.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Hey man that’s your choice, but please just keep in mind that when you vote for the third party, the other two parties gain more ground than they lose-- both lose your vote, but you’re in no way impeding other party from winning. This is why people are saying it’s a game of voting against least favored candidates, because your impedance is much more significant than your support.

It won’t matter to Republicans what platform the constituents are showing them should be adopted once they institute Project 2025 into law.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yes-- campaigns that involve influencing people’s opinions with covert guerrilla campaigns across social media with no accountability. Among the other shady tactics in their playbooks.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

glad they posted it twice so we can all play both sides, upvote one in case it’s sarcasm, downvote the other in case of troll.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

You can do it through the instance API.

Admins at lemmy.ml used vote tracking against me to retaliate by deciding what communities to ban me from after I spoke out against disinformation. They felt that censorship wasn’t enough, they felt the need to be malicious in order to make a point. Sucks to be them though, they forgot the part about keeping your cards close to the chest.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Really? Jack Dorsey says it’s suffering from the same mistakes Twitter made. Is it still better than Mastodon? I thought Mastodon was as close as we got to solving the problem for now, just lacking adoption and with your typical fedi-drawbacks

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

He founded SpaceX, which is arguably more important than anything else he or any of Silicon Valley are typically involved with.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Because he is not your run-of-the-mill tech billionaire.

He’s an asshole, yes, but you don’t see Zuckerberg, Gates, Bezos or anyone else make the kind of big moves he does.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yeah, even if he is advising or contributing, the way he put it sounds very disingenuous like he’s trying to inflate the number for his argument. Which MIGHT mean there likely was not many with immediately recognizable significance in that time (don’t yell at me, I have not taken the time to verify this).

Either way, the way he responded comes across as very “I’m published, you’re not, neener neener!” which is not a good look for anyone with a doctorates.

Also, genuine question, how significant was the contribution of LeNet-5 to the field of deep learning vs Neocognitron?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Yeah they just banned me and censored my post the other day fighting back against disinformation being pushed by a Keffals minion. Then, to show just how much I pissed them off, they also banned me from every community on lemmy.ml I’ve ever voted in.

I’m about to petition my instance to defederate.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

If you don’t recognize the number, answer in a funny accent. That’s how you defeat the voice harvesters.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I’ve never met any Minecraft player that played Story Mode, but a few had primary school siblings that did.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

You have it wrong, which really shows what you stand for:

Cloudflare refused to block KiwiFarms as there was no evidence of criminal activity or violation of their policies, and doing so would tarnish their reputation in regards to free speech. They did stop hosting KiwiFarms, in September of 2022 (you can find their statement here) in response to a libelous pressure campaign ran by Keffals when she/they/it found out users were pulling out receipts of it engaging in lewd conversation with minors and providing them with DIY hormone replacement therapy kits without any medical oversight or parental consent.

And KF did not attack Keffals out of nowhere, it was only after she started engaging with Chris-chan as she was attempting to use him to boost her own reputation at a time when he was already in a perilous mind.

I’m not sure exactly where you got the “threatening trans people” from, that is the first I’ve heard of it. I know of one incident that is much more grave and potentially what you are referring to, but your reference leaves out almost the entire context of that one particular incident and there have been no repeats of it to my knowledge.

I’m not a fan of KiwiFarms, but they did not earn their censorship. It was the result of a successful attempt by a revisionist career troll to cover their tracks when they realized their goose was about to get cooked, nothing more. If you truly stand for free speech, you would realize just how dangerous the precedent set by such an unreliable source as Keffals is.

And yes, I realize that if my comment gains enough traction, it and its army will be at my throat and by no doubt have doxxed me in no time if they so choose. But that’s not going to keep me from preventing people like you from twisting the narrative.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

Are homemade PCBs really that effective? I’d wanted to try my hand at them but never could settle whether it was worth attempting.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I’m lost. The one originally posted in this thread looks like the pool photo but very slightly desaturated with slight adjustment of white balance, whereas the fake is clearly oversaturated.

I don’t really care to pull this up on my desktop to confirm, but I don’t really need an answer because the rest of the photo, unaltered, is enough to marvel at. His hands show he never worked a day in his life. His poor handwriting in such big text, either meant to be seen by reporters or just for his own amusement, is telling. Who still supports this child?

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

The modlog is public and you can check exactly what I said that they didn’t like, then make the decision for yourself whether it’s justified.

And yes, my online persona is that of an asshole. I try to not be too unpleasant of one, but I don’t have the energy to sugarcoat anything and unfortunately go a little overboard with the salt.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer, (edited )

I’m not familiar with the context of that accusation, besides having seen the meme.

[insert more incessant rambling here because idk it’s what I do I guess (see edit)]

At the end of the day, this may be an entire nothing burger, but I am still exercising my right to protest what I have all reason to believe is a deliberate attempt to censor accurate and relevant information in favor of obvious misinformation. Because while I could care less about how or when social media dies, I care deeply about the fruitful efforts of certain bad actors to skew public perception and further a social divide for their own gain.

edit: just paid better attention to the comment you linked, I was mistaken and that is my accusation. I disagree with the notion that I was intentionally misgendering, however-- I intentionally refused to acknowledge any gender identity for one subject in particular, but the other one I believe to be entirely accidental.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I reserve the vile habit of referring to people/personas as “it” only for a certain type of individual who attacks others based on identity whilst using identity politics as their personal shield.

This behavior is irregardless of their purported identity or orientation, beliefs-- it is me signalling staunch refusal to engage in any form of identity nuance when I have only ever seen them use identity in bad faith.

I can recall only two personas I go out of my way to refer to in this manner-- I can’t promise that I wouldn’t refer to anyone else similarly, but I hope everyday that I may never come across more who earn the distinction.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

I agree, and intend to block them on my account, but I am disconcerted with their readiness to censor based on personal bias and feel that their doing so is a critical matter that should not go unignored.

Even wirh defederation as the extreme, I brought it for discussion to make clear how critical I feel it is for the fediverse to acknowledge it’s weakness to influence by bad actors embedding themselves in positions of social trust.

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

casual_turtle_stew_enjoyer,

He was also entered into the Guiness Book of Records for “strangest diet.”

He ate the award plaque they gave him.
