I make dubstep so I feel so this hurts my soul in a one two punch combo.

But imagine listening to dubstep though

Yeah if you think life is simple just because you fit into that category, boy have I got some news for you. Never assume people’s struggles, the world is big and generalizing groups of people is dumb.

Guess it takes a shit post to learn biology

Sponge? Bacteria? Viruses?

That’s unrealistic. In the grant scheme of things Lemmy is small. There’s not enough activity for bigger criminal activity to occur here yet. Generally, there’s a bunch of three letter agencies who could probably get search warrants or permission to go after instance owners, but they’d need to be aware of Lemmy and they’d need a good enough reason to convince a judge. It’ll be a while until then. Maybe on mastodon first, we’ll see but that’s all speculation.

And should we be concerned? Maybe about those 3 letter agencies, but not about platforms like these, and most definitely not about Lemmy instances.

As long as we keep defederating from actually scary ones with csam on there, we’re more than good.

Also if this is a rhetoric question with a strong insinuation to get angry at lemmy.world then get bent, I like my Lemmy instances drama-free, thank you.

“back”

After looking up the Wikipedia definition I kind of disagree; my definition is more narrow but I also think it’s more akin to what we currently understand AI to be.

That said, even with the very loose Wikipedia definition of AI I don’t know how the hell you conclude that the internet / the web is AI. Yes, specific parts of it are AI, but the Internet in my understanding does not fit the definition.

A statistical model built on neural networks solving black box problems.

I don’t hate AI but 99% of applications currently are just vanity, there are big energy problems with it, monopoly consolidation is getting exacerbated by it, identity theft is becoming easier than ever and then stolen training data and information clusters will be the next big issues.

What I’m saying is, a lot of experts (those who survived from the older field of machine learning and its various applications like genetic algorithms and classifiers) are critical of AI, and most people should be. It’s a big opportunity but we could destroy our society with it if we don’t come up with ethical constraints codified in law.

I second syncthing as a solution.

I personally use an smb server and tail scale client + Headscale and then those smb files are locally backed up to a different drive / different PCs that remain in the network, but that doesn’t automatically sync and instead works by connecting to the server directly.

What you’re describing sounds like a solution that automatically resynchronizes on connection, and that means you’re looking for versioning / sync, thus probably syncthing is the easiest.

This is just a slightly more complicated version of “if buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing” or am I missing something?

I mean ofc some people are very insecure but tbh this job market rn is fucked.

First of all, not a shit post.

People only hate the pedos they dislike.

Disagree. You mentioned MJ and Epstein. There is a huge amount of victims, witnesses, monetary transactions and evidence (e.g. pictures) about Epstein being a pedophile. For MJ being a pedophile there’s only a fraction of that.

I personally do not care for MJ. People like his music but I don’t really. It’s easier for me to see Epstein as a pedophile because there is just so much more corroborating evidence, and way harder to see MJ that way. Do I believe he’s not? Not really, I haven’t looked that deep into it and I heard this before a few times. But I’m not say someone is a pedophile without evidence. If they’re wrongly accused, that’s fucked up. And ultimately, he’s dead and there’s no real evidence and no suggestions he was part of a wider circle of other perpetrators.

On the other hand Epstein is dead, but there’s other people who helped him or committed crimes themselves. So we should concentrate on those, so that the victims get justice and the perpetrators which do still live get tried and convicted. And especially make sure ghislaine Maxwell, who is convicted and got an insane deal has to face more consequences and finally gives up names so we can start demanding trials for all of the others involved.

Basically, it’s never a “I hate Epstein but not MJ” thing, it’s just that we can address whatever Epstein did, and that is important and there’s lots to go on, but we kinda can’t do it with MJ unless there’s more evidence, there’s likely more perpetrators or there’s more victims coming forward, and I haven’t heard any of that.

Tbf at this point it’s well earned. The Republicans are still not switching positions about Epstein, the 25th and other things and their voters sure as hell did, so one can only conclude the more cynical position, that is, there is so much corruption it takes more than an elite sex abuse ring for the Republicans to finally do something.

That is true, however this is not about the acting, it’s about hypocrisy in the traditional sense. OC is essentially saying “we have the same goal and I set an easier plan and I’m currently following it, while you are criticizing my plan, making up a way harder one, saying I should follow that one while not following either mine or your plan at all.”

It’s like when you are working in a supermarket, restocking the shelves and your coworker is just sitting on a chair watching you, and after a while he says “this is useless, you should rather do some cashier work, people are waiting” while eating candy.

Yeah sure he might be technically right, but this is extremely out of line.

I love that one can identify you by how unhinged your posts are. Delightful - welcome back.

Pubic execution is a great way to refer to a sex change

I really hope that’s sarcasm considering latest news xd

Definitely over the threshold of slavery light with zero sugar

“shit”? That’s an exclamation, not a swear word to me.
