Starving people out is the best reason to start fighting. I hope people start fighting back. This makes me so angry holy man.

This is my personal opinion, but I believe peaceful protest does mean something. It’s shown me (and hopefully others) that largely people are good and strive to be good people. Society is incredibly patient. Probably too patient.

However, it also shows that at some point peacefully protesting might get met with violence by the state, which in turn shifts public opinion towards acceptable levels of counter violence to protect their communities and loved ones. ICE abducting people is just the beginning, but public opinion is slowly shifting. Eventually, if the government continues to overstep, people will be much more likely to do something.

The fact that the snap benefits are not being accommodated during this shutdown is awful, but i think it’s also the best worst situation as hungry people will get even more angry towards a corrupt government.

It’s ironic that crunchyroll is here.

They should understand more than anyone that they need to offer a good service, and piracy would be less of an issue.

Amazon just laid off 14,000 workers, and they’re claiming they can do their jobs with AI.

They’re already making AI commercials for TV and AI images for advertising, and there was a post here about AI music that hit the top 100 played on Spotify or something. Now, how cost-effective and efficient these all are? I have no idea.

I think there’s both overhype and reality. I think it’s a bit of both. Companies want people to believe AI is the way forward. But I also think part of this is smoke and mirrors. I actually don’t know how much of it is truth and until we start hearing more first-hand accounts, I feel like it’s very up in the air.

I really hope that ice members are tracked down and held accountable for their crimes. Similar to nazi hunters today.

The one thing I’ve personally found, is that buying devices with less points of failure has been helpful when possible.

I’m surprised it took them that long. It’s going to be ironic if the military finally has enough of their BS though

Yup exactly. They stop crimes of opportunity

I love this guy. His videos have shown me to never trust locks

My personal guess was to get people “used” to AI video. If you slap a smear over everything, it makes it look similar

Alternatively, it could have been an attempt to clean up video to make it look better. However, the implementation and where I’ve seen it seems to make little sense. It generally makes everything look worse, so I have no clue.

How many does this make now? There was that judge who also had her home catch fire right after going against trump. They claim it wasn’t arson, but I wouldn’t put it past em.

I feel like the internet should probably be hosted in as many different servers and physical locations as possible. It seems alarming that these things happen as often as they do

Lol that could be the newest horror movie for Halloween. “Education on Elm Street”.

I think that’s the scariest part. The idea that people will stop learning.

This should be illegal. Two world wars fought over this kind of harmful ideology.

I find it reassuring that Wikipedia is doing it’s best to try and maintain truth and accountability. I agree they should be hosted in a different place.

Side thought/my own ramblings here: Has there ever been hosting where the information is scattered across the world rather than one localized spot? That seems like it might be helpful, but I honestly don’t know enough about site hosting

This kind of tech is going to mislead people into wars. It’s going to ruin digital information

I would put money on that. Seems to be how things play out as the years go on

It seems like he’s been on a warpath in recent months, attempting to tackle Trump in as many positions as possible. I’ve at least noticed him a lot more on social media than other politicians. I think the way he’s positioning himself is smart.

I don’t think he’s good though. He says a lot that seems to be alright, but i agree with you. He gives me politician vibes like the majority of american and canadian politicians. In it for the money and power. Tbh I feel like the whole system needs to be replaced.

This issue hasn’t affected me yet. But I worry that it could affect us if these payment processors keep escalating. Like sure, right now, it’s NSFW. But then it’ll be anything they want. LGBT+ content? Too much violence? Critical of religion? They’ll just keep going
