I said not normally, meaning yes I do (and just did), but in this case I do not feel bad because Sam Altman plainly sucks ass and deserves to cry for his numerous blights on humanity.
Then enlighten me! Explain to me this great societal benefit we get from leaving them on the 'net. Because it sure seems 90% of what's coming out of Russia is: hacked infrastructure, spreading disinformation, sowing discord and tilting our elections. I understand that it's unfair to the Russian people, but at what point do we stop drinking the poison that is being dished out by their government? We shouldn't all be a victim to their government's motivations.
I never said the Russian people are bad. I said it seems the majority of Russian influence on the greater Internet seems to be motivated by ill intent. I was merely asking at what point do you take action to prevent them from: hacking our infrastructure, spreading disinformation, sowing discord and tilting our elections? Seems like a high price to pay to share memes on Lemmy if it means the Russian government has free rein to do as they please.
I’m all for an open and free Internet, but at what point do we cut off bad actors whose largest “contribution” is to spread and manipulate through disinformation? I can’t imagine there’s a wealth of culture and good will coming out of Russia via the Internet today, but it seems I hear about this week after week.
First, you need to separate power hungry crypto from AI, one provides a real benefit while the other is a useless fiat that can be accomplished without dumping gigawatts down the drain. If you want to trade crypto that’s fine, just don’t use a vulgar amount of society’s power to do it.
Iran ships shitty drones to Yemen and they use them against ships in an international shipping lane. This is a shitty PR piece that somehow tries to twist this ignorant play into some kind of amazing axis of power? How fucking dumb. If they are so powerful why doesn’t Iran just launch the drones? We all know the answer.

What is the point you’re making?
