“Sure, he killed a strike last year, but he’s learning”

He’s a neolib that considers the PR of killing this strike more hurtful to his reelection than the last one.

kmkz_ninja,

Can you show me where getting 7 sick days per year was what the unions were looking for?

America’s Worst Judge Declares War on Drag (slate.com)

U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk is a proud Christian nationalist who flatly refuses to apply binding Supreme Court precedent when it conflicts with his extremist far-right beliefs. It is therefore no surprise that Kacsmaryk, a Donald Trump appointee, handed down a decision on Thursday refusing to protect Texas college...

How is this any different than strip clubs? Are states allowed to ban strip clubs on the whole?

kmkz_ninja,

Google search is less than useful nowadays. Google assistant seems to be Google’s inbred idiot cousin. DDG doesn’t seem to be any better. Most of my searches give the same clickbait results that google does.

Honestly, outside of Google Maps, is there any legitimate value to any google product? Is there a single search engine that is brave enough to give 0 results and also literally parses what you’re asking instead of valuating against what the advertisers want you to see?

I dream daily of Google imploding, and every single investor at that useless company going immediately bankrupt and destitute for the disgusting, addled, brain-malware they push.

SpaceX Might Have Lost 200+ Starlink Satellites In Just 2 Months Shows Data (wccftech.com)

SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet constellation has lost more than two hundred satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) since July, according to data from a satellite tracking website. This is the first time that Starlink has lost a significant number of satellites in a short time period, and these losses are typically influenced...

Was that the show with the green wireframe CGI animals that they would show duking it out and eating wireframe people?

A Cuban teenager was offered a job doing 'construction work' in Russia. Instead he was sent to fight on the front lines in Ukraine. (www.businessinsider.com)

A Cuban teenager unwittingly found himself on the front lines of the war in Ukraine after accepting a job offer he received on WhatsApp to do “construction work” for the Russian military, according to Time magazine....

kmkz_ninja,

Russia is actively conscripting people. The U.S. has had an entirely ‘volunteer’ force for 50 years.

Another good thing Trump ruined. Relations were repairing under Obama.

Another country has called Xi a 'dictator' and China is not happy with that description (edition.cnn.com)

China has lashed out at Germany after its foreign minister called Xi Jinping a “dictator” and summoned Berlin’s ambassador for a dressing down, in the latest flaring of tensions with a western democratic power over how the Chinese leader is described overseas.

kmkz_ninja,

When “Don’t let people post pictures of my son’s dick” becomes “China will disappear you if you call Winnie the Pooh a dictator as a citizen of China”.

We know about it. You’re like a Libertarian acting like they have secret knowledge when they tell you you still have to pay taxes for Universal healthcare.

kmkz_ninja,

No, we voted for the older guy this time.

kmkz_ninja,

You’re only saying that because he’s white a la Beck’s 1994 hit ‘Loser’ and since Beck is white that makes you racist?

kmkz_ninja,

I have one comment in this thread dummy.

kmkz_ninja,

Oh, I don’t pay attention to usernames. Otherwise, you start to disregard arguments at a name.

kmkz_ninja,

Which domains are least likely to ban you for equivalating using statistics to cull animals to eugenics and trepanning?

I think .world is slowly transitioning towards reddit.shitty. in how heavy handed the moderation is. Interesting that comments advocatin for the literal murder of cops is allowed but saying “13 % of dogs commit 90% of crime” is a bannable offense.

Which domains have the least arbitrary moderation tools?

Also: Cops are generally pigs.

Or: To put things on topic. .World has made relatively unilateral decisions regarding the health of the domain. Which domains have a more democratic regard for what is and isn’t appropriate? If lemmy is going to be a more poorly paid Reddit, I’d rather go to the place with more than 1 new commented-on post per hour.

kmkz_ninja,

They use carbrains as an insult. They expect people to add an hour to any commute.

kmkz_ninja,

They aren’t. If I think you’re a bootlicking chud, I have the right to say so in America. We don’t let the offended party decide what is insulting.

kmkz_ninja,

Your logic is right, but what he’s meaning is that capitalism exacerbates poverty. When homes, food, healthcare become commodities the people that can’t afford the new norm HAVE to do what they can to survive.

Yes, some-to-most shoplifters may be shoplifting for less than survival reasons, but in the same way many would argue that capital punishment risks the many at the expense of a few, villifying and prosecuting shoplifters risks the legitimate survival of a lot of people.

kmkz_ninja,

laws aren’t changed by Nazis

Unless you lived in Germany in the 1930s.

“How could the Holocaust have happened??” While legitimate neo-nazis gain significant footholds in Western nations yet more than a few are willing to say ‘Well they haven’t told you who to hate, yet’ (unironically). ‘Well, we don’t have any concentration camps,’ ignoring that we detain and deprive significant rights from immigrants. ‘Well, we’re hardly a fasciest nation!’, disregarding the fact that our prior and still popular president attempted at every point of legality to overthrow a democratic election.

That isn’t even taking into consideration that an alarming number of people are willing to show up to protests and parades with NAZI FLAGS AND ARMBANDS. Anyone who pretends like there isn’t alarming positive Nazi sentiment in America is dumb or complicit.

kmkz_ninja,

To what degree do you consider AI involvement to be the deal-breaker. My phone uses something arbitrarily akin to generative AI to sharpen photos. If I take a photo with my phone of something novel, should I be able to copywrite that photo?

If I use an AI generated image and spend 24 hours manually tweaking and modifying it, do I have a right to copywrite?

If I use an LLM to synthesize an idea that I then use to organically create art, is it lesser art?

It all seems so arbitrary at this point. It’s like a typist in 2005 arguing that digital word processors shouldn’t be used to create copywritable art, as it takes significantly less work.

kmkz_ninja,

you’re the one doing each and every brushstroke, deciding each and every detail as you draw.

Does Photoshop or any digital art not count? I don’t have to have the skill to draw a perfect circle?

good photography takes skill.

So we should artificially handicap the art at the expense of the lesser abled?

Whereas for AI art, all you’re doing is providing instruction to the AI, that then goes on to make all these decisions

Same as clicking a button on a camera at something that just happens to be beautiful. Does it matter if someone next to me is using the same ISO or exposure?

I don’t have to realize the complexity of lighting, shaders, or materials to render a scene in Unreal. I get to utilize the processes that pioneers before me discovered.

I understand the frustrations, but this seems stifling in the same way that cotton-gin-phobes, typewriter-phobes, and computer-phobes wpuld have stifled the ability of the average joe to accomplish something.
