I usually like these comics. This one made me wonder whether there’s something wrong if men see women like that. As beings that know uniformly how to judge what a good man is. A form of objectification perhaps? A bit like how some people used to think Melania needs to be defended from her husband and can’t herself be that bad. Nothing wrong with the comic but I guess it just made me uncomfortable at another level than that of the main joke.

Zeshade@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Pro-Palestinian journalist found dead on rooftop in Marseille38·7 months agoWhat’s weird is that I can’t find even one article about her death in the more mainstream French newspapers such as Le Monde or Le Figaro or Libération. There’s something in Ouest France. Did anyone find more?
They’re currently not treating her death as suspicious. I know it doesn’t mean that it isn’t but I think it’s worth mentioning.
I understood it more as Musk betraying his previous fanbase. Those that used to think that he was a positive force, investing in cool things. Before he revealed himself as a deranged asshole.
(Or Warcraft) Basically by profession rather than with their first names.
It’s what I used to think of Dota character names (compared to their lol counterparts).
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is an extremely wholesome fact that could help brighten someone's day?5·9 months agoIs this site legit? I just got a popup telling me I had a virus on my phone and I should click on the button to remove it. With a countdown from 3 minutes.
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•The Moment of Truth | The reelection of Donald Trump would mark the end of George Washington’s vision for the presidency—and the United States.1·9 months agoI get your sarcasm. My comment wasn’t meant to be that deep and yes I can see that his success is a symptom of a deeper problem. I just thought that him being almost comically corrupt, detestable and yet successful is a one off.
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•DOJ proposes breakup and other big changes to end Google search monopolyEnglish3·9 months agoYes but the power of it is that you can in effect refine your search using natural language, like talking to a person, as it remembers the last 2-3 exchanges.
And it presents the information the way you asked to see it.
For example (my side of the “conversation”):
- What is hamas?
- Compared to Hezbollah?
- what are the differences between Shia and Sunni?
The citations confirm the information, they are not the end goal. The added value is the fact that the information is pre-digested and presented in a way that matches my learning process. It’s a lot easier for me to assimilate information by getting answers to questions that I’ve asked.

Zeshade@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•DOJ proposes breakup and other big changes to end Google search monopolyEnglish8·9 months agoAs far as I know Google and Bing return AI results just above the usual web page results.
In addition AI LLM tools like Copilot (the mobile app) and Perplexity which cite their sources with links to websites really make it easier to weed out the BS from LLM answers, if you use them carefully. In my case, these tools replace search engines in 80% of the searches that I do.
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•The Moment of Truth | The reelection of Donald Trump would mark the end of George Washington’s vision for the presidency—and the United States.3·9 months agoI always saw him like an anomaly, an unexpected improbable blip in history that may have an effect over decades but the disruptions it brought will go away… eventually.
When he came into power I immediately thought of something in the Foundation series (I try to avoid spoiling it because even if the books have been around for some time people are discovering it through the Apple TV series).
So yeah it’ll get better but perhaps not in our lifetime…
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Is Running a Disinformation Campaign, Not a Political Campaign8·9 months agoHowever you look at it it always boils down to marketing and comms. Everyone looks for the best way to get the votes, testing how far they can go. But the left can’t afford to be unethical because that’s part of their identity and they would lose their core voters. The right however… Found trump.
It sounds lame but the best way for the democrats to win is to get people to vote. I believe that was the single reason behind Obama’s ama on Reddit a few years back.
I never said that art will necessarily come from AI in its current form but it’s true that it’s what I had in mind. You basically expressed something very similar to what I meant in your last paragraph.
And yes I do love pencil drawing :)
But I’m more thinking about conceptual artists with decades of work behind them that I can imagine will create art using these AI tools that will transcend what the average Joe/Jane is producing with these tools right now. To produce something that will shock, move us, make us think.
There are so many different facets to art.
It’s a tool. Artists will learn how to use it to create art.
Exactly.
And India doesn’t have chillies add Italy doesn’t have tomatoes… Where do we stop?
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•French President Emmanuel Macron announces new right-wing government15·9 months agoThe assemblée nationale can block and cause the prime minister to resign can’t they? Can the left wing alliance not join forces again to veto the pm appointment? I guess the problem is that they managed to do it to repel the le pen’s party but not all left leaning parties are similarly united against Barnier’s government.
Zeshade@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Washing your hands with plain soap is probably better than using antibacterial soap in the long runEnglish5·11 months agoThen what do people mean when they say normal soap and antibacterial soap and how does that affect what I should be using after handling raw meat or just going to the toilets etc?
They should’ve said “all other inhabitants” to remove the ambiguity.
The expectation is that they are going to go for US POCs next is that right? I don’t hear people talk about it so I don’t know if I’m the only one who sees it this way.
