Me for Bill Gates and Mark Cuban, back when everyone loved them. Bill Gates was basically idolized on reddit, partaking on reddit santa and all that.

The thing is that I do not see AI “failing”. Its current state is already goood enough to take many people’s job, let us not kid ourselves. And also, even if the current iteration of AI “fails”, there is always the argument that “we are just around the corner to AGI, wait for the new AI version!”.
I honestly don’t see AI going away, sadly. I fucking hate it. We built such a shitty fucking society. We could all have beautiful, chill lives, but nop. We suck.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Gays, what's your opinion on straight women going to gay bars?
3·2 months agoI don’t care, as long as they don’t bring their BS with them and try to hit on gay men. I am thinking of the typical “instagram women”.
Welcome!
Please, help growing Lemmy/PieFed. Create content and engage!

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Banned from 20 communities, no explaination
3·3 months agoThe authority should be the people. A community is for the people, by the people. All a moderator needs to do is keep the community happy, by removing obvious spam. If a post is having engagement, even if it slightly breaks the rules, you let it be.
Again, a moderator is not a king. He is there to serve the will of the people. A community is made by the people/community, not by the moderator.

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Banned from 20 communities, no explaination
4·3 months agoNo, creating a new community is not the way to solve this sort of thing. Removing and banning the power tripping mod is the solution.
There is also a power tripping mod on !pics!pics@lemmy.world. See this post: https://slrpnk.net/post/34743977?scrollToComments=true

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Oxford English Dictionary for KOReader? Does anyone have it?English
1·3 months agoHey there again! I tried the PT-PT dictionary and in terms of content, it is awesome. The formatting is a bit weird though. There is no formatting, everything is in the same phrase, different definitions in the same phrase gets annoying.
Is there a way to style it? For example, a word “XYZ: 1 bla bla 2 bla2 bla2” would look much better like so:
"XYZ:
- bla bla
- bla2 bla "
Is this something that can be done on my end? I use KOReader.

World News@lemmy.ml•The children murdered by the Epstein coalition in Iran so far
144·4 months agoAmericans are such a passive people. Their state can commit the worst atrocities, no peep from them. If this was any EU country, heads would be flying.
EDIT: After writing this, I thought and I disagree with my own statement. People suck. All people, generally. Some are a bit more passive than others, but generally, humanity sucks, people suck. We value comfort way too much and are not up to give up 0.1% of it, even in the face of atrocities. Principled people are very rare.

1·4 months agoIndeed. Let’s accelerate their demise by suggesting Lemmy (and PieFed). Make sure reddit’s pieces of shit CEO and shareholders will not get to buy their 5th yacht, 10th house, and make them unable to act on their pedophile tendencies.

1·4 months agoI did a test a few months back. Just saying “I really like Luigi” gets you banned. It got me banned. However, if you say “I really like X”, where X is a right-wing, pedophile, whoever it may be, does not. Say “I really like X”, but substitute X for, for example, Putin. It will not get you banned. Reddit staff (and CEO) is right-wing, right-wing adjacent or right-wing acting. Fuck them.

Allegedly, killed a bad person. The “allegedly” refers to the idea that Luigi was the killer, not that the dead guy was a bad person.
The only way for society to improve, is for people to be willing to sacrifice their comfort with the goal of improving society. Luigi was willing to sacrifice his comfort for the better of everyone else. The opposite makes a bad person. The dead guy was willing to sacrifice everyone’s comfort for improving his own life. One minimizes suffering. The other maximizes it.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•I hope none of you wanted to buy RAM anytime soon
2·4 months ago100% agree. What alpha fold did, which had to do with protein folding, was awesome. But ya, then comes capitalism and the idiocy and comfort-seeking of society and ruins everything for everyone.
Welcome to Lemmy, the frontpage of the internet.

40·4 months agoThis is absolutely insane to me. AI is destroying society.
Now is the time to stand by your principles. And if you don’t have principles, maybe raise some. Become anti-consumption and remove yourself from capitalism, as much as possible. Hate those people. You should hate them as much as possible.
I don’t like how he seems to quote (positively) Noam Chosmky so much. By the end of the article, it ceases to be fact-based and becomes more opinionated.
He makes a few points that I disagree with, namely: “the whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent and who think for themselves and who don’t know how to be submissive and so on - because they’re dysfunctional to the institutions” (This is from a Chomsky’s book). I 100% disagree with this. I just don’t see people creating an educational system that filters out good thinkers and smart people. If it does, it is surely failing. (I am in Europe). Ask any teacher what sort of training they received to filter out those people. They will tell you none. Ask any teacher what is the reason that one fails in the educational system. Not one teacher will tell you “oh, that person is too smart, too independent, for our current educational system. He needs to be dumber if he wishes to pass.”. Come on…
I wish he would have kept the document fact based. This is surely an attacking point that may be used to detract the rest of it.
Where are the guides on how to facilitate mass migration? Where are the guides for agriculture in the absence of international supply lines and fertilizer? Where are the checklists of supplies for individuals, small communities, and large communities?
I don’t know? Where are they? Post them. Create them.
If all you have to say of the 57 pages of the document is “the title is wrong”: Thank you for your contribution.




They keep making right wing mistakes though. I think that points to something.
