  • How can we protect kids from the harms of social media without sacrificing everyone's privacy?

  • You could also regulate smartphone sales. Only dumb phones until you hit 18 or so. It wouldn't keep them off message boards but it could help with social media. Maybe restrict social apps from working on tablets to close a loophole.

  • A jellyfish the size of a school bus: The new scientific discovery in the Argentine Sea

    Jump

  • Bruh. Did you read the article? It used a reference size once (school bus), imperial units twice (distances), and metric twice (depth and length of tentacles). Technically if we're talking about the organism it used majority metric, and even had them in there twice (including literally under the title in the summary).

    IT'S EVEN IN METRIC IN THE ARTICLE DESCRIPTION POSTED ON THIS PLATFORM.

    That's some serious bias to skip all that and pick out the one odd visual aid.

  • As what happened?

  • Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face

  • I'll swap to a shared calendar and any other voice chat software. Sure I can't post on those but that's why we also have a group chat for the different gaming groups I'm in.

  • Well, looks like I'm leaving discord.

  • Kid Rock’s MAGA-friendly country music festival canceled in South Carolina after artists drop out

    Jump

  • Are the artists still playing in the other cities or is the whole show over?

  • Computers were in use for at least a decade before the first home computer was a thing and then they became accessible to the public. That's just history. First cell phones were also prohibitively expensive and it took a while before we got to the point that everyone got one.

    Social media would have been a better example to go with since that has ruined a good number of lives and allowed for genocides due to the speed at which it was deployed to people before they (or the companies) knew how to use it properly. Also, many problems were created by the companies rolling social media out (algorithms pushing towards engagement that leads to huge body issues and increases in heath problems, genocide in Myanmar allowed to be organized on the platform and assisted due to algorithms pushing conflict posts for engagement again) so that's not a user issue, that's very much a professional using a tool for malicious purposes due to profit.

    To your point that it comes down to the individual and not the tool, well how does anyone know who is a responsible user on the internet in early interactions? That might be why a lot of people are defaulting to all users are irresponsible due to lack of proof.

  • Maybe if computers and steam engines were being forced into everyday life and into use by people who do not understand how to use them appropriately or the context of any of the answers given out, the critics would also have been riled up.

    As it is, computers and steam engines were prohibitively expensive and so only got used by actual experts long enough for basic use protocols to work their way into society and a slow entry into public use. Not really the same thing at all.

    AI and LLMs are being forced on everyday users without much recourse and so you get a lot more problematic use both by malicious users and by people who don't understand, which is entirely the fault of the tool and the companies making the tool.

  • As someone who's seen plenty of people not employ those other tools or practices, I tend to side with the "it's not a great tool for research" at least by laymen.

  • Seems like a lot of people think research might not be on the "right way" list.

  • Super amazing if all the links are real. Google did just have to remove some query responses from their ai because it was lying about blood tests and giving out unsafe info iirc, so there is that.

  • US launches 'powerful strikes' against Islamic State in Nigeria, says Trump

    Jump

  • I might be imagining things from an alternate reality, but didn't the approved use of military force that was being used to justify drone strikes against IS get repealed? What authority are they doing these new strikes under?

  • All means ALL

  • I'm not a fan of lumping either, but it is literally in their job that they should be holding their peers accountable the same as every other person. They don't, so even if they're the individual cop doing it for the right reasons, they still have a burden of duty that they are shirking. Thus, in the lump they go.

  • All means ALL

    Jump

  • I'm on the "it's all until it's regular practice for cops to arrest their peers and leaders for breaking laws" side. Like, yeah, there are probably some who want to "change the system" or are "just keeping their head down and providing for their community" which are both noble aspirations.. but they need full scale follow through or it's just copwashing.

    Why do minority characters need a justification for existing, but white male characters can exist without needing justification?

    Jump

  • Me too, but I think we get more stories from the captains instead of the crew unfortunately

    Jump

  • It might be because there are a lot more (visible) records of random white dudes being places they had no business being in the pursuit of colonialism.

    Wipe out a colonized planet, import confused cavemen for each "team", get into the nitty gritty of civ building from an ageless eye.
