How will it improve without good training data?

So is the Bay Area’s respect for its vehicles6·4 months agoIn my experience assisted driving helps me avoid fatigue on very long drives. It feels like I can focus where other cars are much more because I’m not spending brain power focusing on staying in my lane and keeping the correct speed.

ExperiencedWinter@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL How Elon Musk Picked Tesla's Strange Charge Port PlacementEnglish2·5 months agoYeah that sounds like a terrible experience, let’s not pretend it only affects Tesla though. Lemon laws exist because all auto manufacturers run into issues like this (at different rates, Tesla may be worse then others)
ExperiencedWinter@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL How Elon Musk Picked Tesla's Strange Charge Port PlacementEnglish41·5 months agoIf you believe people online my car would constantly be falling apart and in and out of the shop. In reality I’ve only had to take it in twice, once for new tires, and once for a new AC compressor after Tesla detected was bad before it failed (covered under warranty).
I would not rebuy my car today because there are many more options on the market now, but 5 years ago no other EV could compete. If I needed a new car and I could buy a Tesla from an identical company with a different CEO I would probably consider it…
I believe media like super hero comics can be used to examine difficult topics like facism. That does not make the entire medium Nazi propaganda. For example Capitan America’s backstory is clearly an allegory for America hiring German scientists after the war.
Guy in a thread where the topic is poptarts: “You just say everything you don’t like is poptarts!”
I am specifically arguing that the character Captian America is not inherently fascist. You keep asserting he is without providing any examples. All while throwing in ridiculous strawman arguments.
If you believe all super hero comics are inherently fascist, I’m not sure this is a productive conversation.
Did you even read your own link?
“Disagreement is treason” – fascism devalues intellectual discourse and critical reasoning as barriers to action, as well as out of fear that such analysis will expose the contradictions embodied in a syncretistic faith
I posted an exact panel from the source material showing you the character standing against one of the principles of fascism, and you still called it Nazi propaganda? Maybe you should start using your brain instead of calling everything you don’t like Nazi propaganda.
Where exactly does a Captain America comic argue for creating more super soldiers? You think the characters backstory overrules everything he says or does? You said I’ve done “zero reading” but you didn’t even respond to the comic panel I posted, you’re not interested in a conversation, you just want to preach at me
What are you talking about man? Of course all Super Hero stories are propaganda, but Nazi propaganda??? Do you even know what that word means?

That sounds like Nazi propaganda to you? I don’t care if you want to shit all over corporate media, I’d probably even agree with you, but this take just isn’t it
Propaganda does not inherently mean something is wrong. Capitan America was created as propaganda to encourage the US to join WWII.
Captain America’s creation as an explicitly anti-Nazi figure was a deliberately political undertaking: Simon and Kirby were stridently opposed to the actions of Nazi Germany and supporters of U.S. intervention in World War II, with Simon conceiving of the character specifically in response to the American non-interventionism movement. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_America
More recently, the character has certainly been used as propaganda for American nationalism in meme culture

ExperiencedWinter@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•US said to demand Israel declare it is not deliberately starving Gazans3·7 months agoDude are you blind? You’re calling genocide “incidental casualties”? When your only argument is “Hamas Bad” maybe you should take a longer look at what Israel is doing to normal people every day. It’s absolutely clear you believe normal people are valid military targets, and any argument you come up with is just justifying that stance.

We can’t even get everyone onboard with incremental changes, how are we going to make massive changes?
