This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.

lol

What the fuck are “unregretted user minutes”? I regret every minute any user spends on that site, so it should be zero.

And twitter. And mastodon. And lemmy ffs, we’re not immune. (I’m doing it right now, in fact.)

Eat shit, 6-year-old

You’re asking this in a community that’s specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.

Oh jesus christ. Powerful men do not need weird nerds jumping in front of their bullets. The guy is a fucking shitshow.

Stopped reading at the uncritical use of the word “transgenderism” and the unanalyzed repetition of the falsehood that Budweiser suffered financially from the Dylan Mulvaney thing (it didn’t).

Not sure what fence the author is trying to sit on, but I’ll take my opinion fluff pieces from people who aren’t actively aiding the conservative culture war.

why not just let lose of this crippling desire to align ourselves with some historical identity

Fair enough. Counterpoint: It doesn’t freaking matter what word we use. No matter what the word is, the right will attempt to poison it and stir hatred of it and assign meanings to it that aren’t real. Look at what happened to “woke”. It will keep happening, because the modern right is Fascism, and poisoning language is a fascist tactic that goes back to the very beginning. You call yourself an Anarchist; where on Earth do you live that nobody has negative associations with “Anarchist”.

Use whatever word you want, just use it consistently. Don’t expect it to stay free of propaganda, because they do that to our words on purpose.

Sometimes the only requirement IS to have words on a page. Think about a disaster recovery plan, for example. Now, you probably don’t want an LLM to write your disaster recovery plan, but it’s a perfect example of something where the main value is that you wrote it down, and now you can be certified that you have one.

This is a legitimate use case for LLM, though.

Not everyone can communicate clearly. Not everyone can summarize well. So the panel on the right is great for the people on the other end, who must read your poorly-communicated thoughts.

At the same time, some things must look like you put careful thought and time into your words. Hence, the panel on the left.

And if people on both sides are using the tool to do this, who’s really hurt by that?

The Baby War of 2020 touched all aspects of our lives.

Movie studios: “This is definitely the most important thing we have to deal with right now”

That’s pretty cool.

I’m truly not being a negative nancy but the last time I checked reddit had 400M user accounts. We should be comparing active user numbers, but either way, this is a drop in the bucket and reddit rightly does not consider Lemmy a threat to its supremacy at this point.

We’re doing great though! Good trajectory.
