If you were to say “black people are bad” then the rebuttal typically becomes “due to established power structures, white men can’t be oppressed, therefore I can say what I want about them”.
I think it’s hard to have a reasoned discussion where you say “all men do X” because for every X, there’s probably a bunch of exceptions. There is a great amount of variance in male behavior.
It’s original sin, just by gender. I think people underestimate the harm in painting all men with the same brush. Once the conversation morphs from “I hate this thing some males do” and changes into “I HATE MEN” you can’t have a productive conversation.
If those other sources make more money and get more viewers, why did it start on YouTube?
$$$ that’s why. YouTube gives the greatest return. If they post to multiple platforms, not only is it more work, but they then also subtract from the number of views they get on YouTube. It’s all about the $$$.
I think it’s because grok ships the most bugs, so they have to ship the most patches.
Matt Walsh is one of the most smarmy fucks around. I swear, some people listen to him because he has a nice haircut and smile.
I only wish he was older, like Trump, so we wouldn’t expect to have him on the earth for another two decades.
Trying to rewind the USA back to when we were all smoking cigarettes and drinking whisky is insane.
I’m not worried about anything.
From a PC manufacturer perspective, the important part about including an NPU is that you can slap an “AI” sticker on your marketing. This is regardless of whether it has any actual use cases or not.
There’s definitely a large slice of “AI” features shipping now just to excite shareholders and serve no actual function to the user.
Or… let them stay on Reddit. I like lemmy much better, and it’s possibly due to the people that are not present and the lack of commercial interest.
Mozilla is no longer about making a great browser. Mozilla is about making sure their Google bucks come in each year without fail. They don’t work for consumers anymore – they work for Google.
Throughout the years, the market share of Firefox has shank and shank and their C-Suite has continued giving themselves raises.
Mozilla Inc. has been very sick for a long time. It’s a shame that one of the last pieces of honest competition for web browsers belongs to them, because I’m not sure how much longer they will be able to shamble on like this.
Don’t worry, we are also the best at blaming anyone else for our problem. This will be quickly forgotten and/or blamed on liberals, Chinese communists or the phase of the moon.
Logic didn’t get us into this situation and it sure as hell isn’t getting us out!
Being ecologically friendly is its own reward.
If your neighbor’s house and lawn is cluttered with garbage and rotting food, do you also let your house gather the same?
Or do you wish they did a better job and kept your house clean all the same?
What if you had 95 neighbors all full of garbage and rotted food? Is there any number that would make you do the same?
I’m 100% sure that’s true for some people, but I do not believe that you can put people into two buckets: Totally against Trump and totally for Trump. I am really disinterested in people that DO fall into either of those categories, as they are beyond reason.
However, I’m interested in anyone that falls outside those categories, as those are the people whose minds can be changed.
Was the past not racist?
This is some BS man. He’s saying you can fly the Nazi flag because it’s “historic”. Well, hell, isn’t the gay pride flag historic? Good luck getting a definition out of these fucks. If he could write the law he really wanted to write it would say “keep off any flags I don’t agree with”.
A big problem here is that not everyone has a common definition for racism and sexism. Some definitions take existing power structures and historical context, and others don’t. A discussion about this topic should be started with what specifically each participant believes these terms mean. Otherwise you have two people talking about “sexism” but they are just talking past each other because they lack a shared understanding of the term as it is used.
