Got sniped by a Reddit bot and had my almost 100k karma account banned, new home here for now until I go back. I'm a man of MANY interests NSFW and SFW alike. Scrolling down my profile you might be thinking "Wow.....Interesting profile" in either a sarcastic tone or serious, but hey god forbid a man has hobbies.

  • Honestly this is more complicated as I'm looking for something that just works, maybe I'll set it up later and yeah I've got an AMD GPU so upscaling is much much slower.

  • I mean tech innovation has been stale for a long time, even with hardware remember how the CPU market was before Ryzen? Completely dead, Intel was sitting on it's morals doing nothing because they were owning the market 10 to 1, but even now that I've got my i7-10700 I don't see any point in upgrading.

    Software side? It's a mess companies will always be greedy, just today I wanted to upscale something with the cloud because my PC is great for 90% of the things I want to do, Upscaling is not one of those but guess what Topaz asks for credits in order to use their servers, yes CREDITS, so I said bye bye. I've also said bye bye to Adobe and moved on with Davinci Resolve.

  • That's the ironic part isn't it, It's like a Nazi reports you for "inciting violence" and then Reddit says well technically you incited violence somehow, oh by the way this guy that reported you with malicious intent walks away free, which is probably what happened.

    Unless a bot spotted a word or something, because I was literally banned by a bot.

  • How much Moderation should a forum based social media have?

    Jump

  • I do agree and you are right that it depends on the community for example r/politics which is a really large subreddit that attracts all different kinds of users has to be way more strict than let's say a niche small community, but what I also didn't mention that receiving a permanent ban out of nowhere is harsh especially because a bot said so, to me a permanent ban should be enforced for the absolute worst of the worst situations, like harassment, doxxing and illegal porn.

    But yeah my point is that if you are going to be that strict at least be fair and have actual admins checking your appeals and if they still say no, then all good.

  • Why do you hate AI?

    Jump

  • Depends on what you classify as AI anymore

    I work with Video Editing software and you could argue that a lot of features on softwares like Davinci, Capcut, Premiere all use different helpful tools that could or could not be AI, Artificial Intelligence existed long before companies slapped the term into every product. Nowadays even TVs have "AI" processors which is just a fancy way of saying just a CPU.

    I do believe it still should be an Open source tool that we can use for good, for example helping fighting against cancer but knowing we live in such a planet it will be used for worse rather than good and it depends on who trains it and for what purpose because we train AI.

    I do care about Art like Movies, Books and the Movie industry so far seems to be the only one who fights against AI being used as lazy work, there are possibly Video Games that use AI text to speech for NPCs or something but there are a lot of directors who speak passionatelly against it which is good to see.

    At the end of the day it's a tool and it will depend on how we use it. We can use it to do good things, but also drive more people out of jobs and helping with endless wars, I have a feeling the latter will be true but we'll see.

    Gotcha, so same time next year? What do you mean innovate? I played BO6's campaign because it was free and I said fuck it why not, and it was clear to me that the devs would rather do anything else than a CoD campaign.

    You can't really innovate, CoD is creatively bankrupt it has been for years, are you going to go back to WW2 again?

  • We can combat Toxic Masculinity with Healthy Masculinity

    Jump

  • Well, my whole point about affordability is that a lot of people don't have the time or energy to mostly care about anything else, I mean a lot of good intentioned people do care about social issues but unless you improve their material position then they will not care, Trump promised that he would improve their living conditions and yeah I knew it was bs, but they didn't, do they deserve it yeah probably however my point is a lot of us have the luxury to talk about social issues, most people do not, most people suffer upon really bad conditions.

    TIL: Young Men Ages 18–29 are Turning Right-Wing and Women of the Same Age Turning Left-Wing

    Jump

  • I think toxic podcasts have a big influence on young men, especially those who grew up without strong father figures. My own dad wasn’t perfect (I joke a bit about it on my profile), and many of us went through that risky “2015 phase” of consuming unhealthy online content.

    What many politicians and advocates on the left often overlook is that toxic masculinity isn’t solved by telling men to be “less masculine.” You can actually counter unhealthy masculinity with healthy masculinity. Instead of shaming men, we should be teaching a better version of manhood one that includes therapy, emotional intelligence, and being able to talk honestly about what’s going on inside.

    As corny as it sounds there's a reason when there's a bad take by a misinformed feminist calling all men evil on twitter ganders a response like "This is why men turn right" and sure while that stuff doesn't work on me anymore, It's not 2015-2016 there's still some vulnerable people that unfortunately fall for it, does that mean though that the feminist is wrong in her views? Not really, but I'm not talking about myself I'm talking about a lot of men that do fall for it.

    Most working-class men who grind through 9–5 jobs, going from shift to shift, are worried about affordability and stability. If someone comes along and says “I’m going to make your life easier,” that’s who they’ll vote for even if it’s Trump. You can call them naïve or say the leopards ate their face or whatever , but the reality is that many of these men are desperate for change. And they’ll keep voting for whoever promises that change. When society pushes these men aside or dismisses them, some end up looking for someone to blame. That’s when you get people saying, “Women are the reason my life is hard,” or “Jews control everything.”

    Of course, some people are genuinely racist or sexist, and there will always be trolls who just want attention. But why do those trolls exist in the first place? Often it’s because they feel insignificant, and attaching themselves to extreme movements gives them a sense of identity and purpose they don’t have otherwise.
