  • Laziness is the way of nature. However, we are rebels, diligently working against our nature.

    Arise! Allow no master to control your fate and grasp the means of production!

  • If we place a tracker on any random person, their route will probably draw them in bed, munching on snacks or splayed on the floor, tired and unwilling to move.

  • I'm not bashing people running away from brutal and corrupt leadership, I'm bashing people who ran away to implement brutal and corrupt leadership on others.

  • "I flee my country for a better life, while keeping the values that made my life a living hell."

  • I agree that even if the continent turns into a nuclear wasteland, there will still be people shouting this kind of thing pointlessly into the void.

  • Right now, he's using games as trash compactor. An emotional void where he throws himself as a form of escape. It will work less and less over time.

    It's healthier to find a more constructive hobby and spend the money he uses on games there. But he has to want it and find the will to go through it.

    If he reached the point of feeling an obligation towards those games, then it's time to start distancing himself from them. Because they're the easier choice and complacency.

    Instead of a subscription, loot boxes or daily checkpoints, take the money and use it for a course teaching a trade he feels attracted to. It will help him way much more in the long run.

    Alternatively, start playing games with him and beat his ass.

  • *I-SS. And no, it's not the space one.

  • It can be. Having someone intentionally stand out and "fight the good fight" so that the regular non-descript people won't join any meaningful protests. Stage a feel-good show to distract and divert. Stuff like that, I'd guess..

  • There's a thing that was happening in the past. Not sure it's still happening, due to lack of news about it. It was something called "glamour modeling" I think or an extension of it.

    Basically, official/legal photography studios took pictures of child models in swimsuits and revealing clothing, at times in suggestive positions and sold them to interested parties.

    Nothing untoward directly happened to the children. They weren't physically abused. They were treated as regular fashion models. And yet, it's still csam. Why? Because of the intention behind making those pictures.

    The intention to exploit.

  • I don't know personally. The admins of the fediverse likely do, considering it's something they've had to deal with from the start. So, they can likely answer much better than I might be able to.

  • In media we call it the Main Character/ Protagonist Syndrome.

  • Schools generally means it involves underage individuals, which makes any content using them csam. So in effect, the "AI" companies are generating a ton of csam and nobody is doing anything about it.

  • China still has the "lots of restless young men" problem, so they may be trying to placate the issue by way of diversionary tactics.

    Still it's something they created on their own, at the expense of women and now shockingly (not) blame women as well.

    Truly idiotic leadership everywhere.

  • The Y2K was a different kind of virus, a virus of the mind.

  • You're right. It's an opinion and only as important as the one having the opinion decides it to be.

  • That's kinda the problem. We're already careless with the things we do ourselves. It can't be helped, nobody's perfect. But once we start delegating tasks, we lose the direct experience. Priorities shift, attention moves to something else and the chance of carelessness rises because it's no longer a problem we have to concern ourselves with.

    Meanwhile, the LLM "learns". What it "learns", nobody knows because it does so mechanically. There's zero understanding.It keeps "learning" every time it's fed something, so you don't have a static program that does what it's told. Instead it's a "living" program that applies what it "learns". And that makes it unpredictable in the long run.

    This turns the user into a glorified middle manager who has to hover over their employee and make sure they did their job as they should have. And how many middle managers do you know with that kind of dedication, that isn't spiteful at its core?

    The push against this is that the people depending on it to do the work become less dependable themselves. And unless you're an independent developer without a profit driven publisher breathing down your neck, this will be used in all the wrong ways as a standard instead of it being the exception.

  • Oh, so that's why Epic's Easy anticheat keeps having trouble. Microsoft might be using it as a trial run.

  • Could very well be. Won't say i know better. Might even be a lot of both...

  • Love and hate are subjective opinions, so of course they're unfair.

    And so are upvotes/downvotes.
