  • When DinoCon is doing more than the US Gov

    Jump

  • Pardon, I know I worded it poorly, but what I meant with the Russia example is that the damage done to society is relatively minor by visiting the country or island of a criminal (though not null), while the gain for science could be huge. Somewhat similar to how journalists travel to war zones or occupied territories and comply with local authority such as the Taliban to report on important issues or abuse. They engage with a regime, but for an important reason.

    I don't mind being wrong, I would like to understand the reasoning seemingly most people share in this case.

  • I think I am. Isn't the advancement of science more important than the shunning of criminals?

  • Quick question: Why am I a deplorable cunt if I want to look for fossils on a rapist's piece of land? Am I a war criminal if I want to dig for fossils in Russa?

  • I think this is still a majority opinion, but a lot of people don't exactly apply it uniformly. Lemmy (and Piefed, for that matter) is a bubble with a certain percentage of people who only consider this to hold true for people they consider "good".

    I've seen some, imo, very VERY deranged takes on here about who "deserves" or rather "lost" their human right privileges, be it police officers, politicians, or people who inherited or otherwise obtained a lot of money.

  • But you see, America is bad so the Allies were secretely propping up the Nazis and forcing them to commit unspeakable atrocities in order to make America (all of America, no one cares about just the US) look good some 80 years in the future so that a nation that was founded largely because of these unspeakable atrocities could commit more atrocities later and continue receiving support.

    It's all linked together, don't you see? (big, BIG /s obviously)

  • You are strong

  • You see, in the Time before the Great Cucumber, Man could not shit, for Prometheus may have given him a Phallus for making love to other men (and, sometimes, procreation as these animals do). Prometheus may have given him buttocks to properly bounce back after every thrust. He may have given man the bipedal walk so that you may walk up to your lover in essentially every setting so that he may receive you in standing, lying, or kneeling. But Prometheus had not considered that from all this, the bowel had become convoluted and tight (which felt nice), too tight to properly shit.

    You see, in ancient times man stored his shit in a discus which was the ideal shape to dry and throw it at people you dislike and to appease the gods who found that really funny. But before doing so, one would have to shit it out first which proved to be nay impossible. So the Great Cucumber saw this and said "A discus is not a shit shape. A penis, that's a proper shit shape for you.". And he took the shit and formed it as such, that man could launch it from the deepest of bowels with the force of an angry demigod, or he could take it into his hand and toss it at whoever dishonored the gods. All because the shit was shaped like man's phallus and could properly fit between his cheeks, for it was shaped to this purpose.

    And the gods saw that and saw that man would throw his digested as javelin upon each other and they were furious, for a javelin was not a discus. And for shitting after eating two bowls of Mediterranean food produced such a girth that man would scream and yell for days in joy when casting his next javelin, and the pleasure was such that he became sated and preferred to lay with (weak, not covered in discusses) women. And the great Zeus was angry, for now man was competing with him and fewer women willingly came to him. And so Olympus said "You who have done this great misdeed, forever be formed in the wretched way you have brought upon this world, and have your shit cause you pain, not pleasure!" .

  • I think people in this comm mostly want to be angry against anything that involves LLM and the like. Which I can understand, I, too, hate those chatbots on every store begging you to use them. We cannot really tell from the post what happened. It could just as well have been one of those 24/7 service programs giving you directions which IMO are not terribly useful but for some people better than nothing. Maybe the small business failed to make a proper disclaimer.

    So I will agree with you. OOP is the victim of AI, not a perpetrator.

  • Well, since no one else considered them to be geographially European it is of little importance. But culture wise? Definitely not if you ask me. I see better chances for Turkey after some minor (read: major) shifts in politics.
