I mean, sure, but that’s really easier said than done. Good luck getting good mental healthcare for cheap in the vast majority of places

Why does legality matter? Laws are set by the government, why do you expect a fascist one to be beholden to them?

Task inertia?

The interesting thing though, is that technological life continuing leads to more entropy faster, not slower.

Is your argument that we should use generative AI to mislead people? To make fake videos and images and such to use as “proof”?

You’re definitively forgetting about other important insects for agriculture such as worms

This is just that zizek quote

And you need to keep in mind that targeted harassment campaigns are perfectly content twisting and manipulating the truth. I have plenty of experience with shit like that from my personal life. So I do not put a lot of stock in info sourced from places like those

In addition, I highly doubt the founder would have been this deeply affected by the harassment if she actually was a person that didn’t care much for the animals or others and their opinions

Yeah sorry if I don’t believe this when the source is fucking kiwifarms

I love heat pumps I love heat pumps I love heat pumps

(I agree! I do love tech connections. Although I’d argue that knowing how heat pumps work can be quite beneficial ^^ at least in my case)

Why would anyone want to watch AI generated content? What’s the point? I get using AI generation as a tool but if there’s no human intention behind it, just a pure algorithm, why even bother?

Maybe it makes achieving personal things in a dark society harder, but it strongly helps to improve society itself. And it’s much more pleasant to live in the opposite of a dark society. A better society is not a zero sum game

Healing is hard and uncomfortable in the short to medium term, but in the long term it’s always preferred

Me a haiku.

Vel, om bare en av oss kan fortsette som nordmann og den andre bli dømt til å være svensk…

But yeah, I get you, it is a bit funky ^^

people in Nordic countries (and places like the Netherlands) do tend to be vastly overrepresented in the English internet, however

Karl Johan jumpscare

(It’s always interesting when you randomly see a place you live in get posted, it feels so strange)

I just print at a local library

There probably is a lot more abuse and bad parents going around than you might think

“if the US falls, you will be next”

Yeah, and that’s effectively you (as a group) threatening me, isn’t it? For stuff that’s going on in your country? That I had no influence on? Why do you expect me to do anything but prepare to defend myself?

I won’t be saving your country from your own mess, no. And as a non-local I would be less than useless even if I did cross the border. What I will be doing, however, is preparing to the best of my ability myself and my home community against a fascist US.

Besides, that wasn’t the point of my comment. The point of my comment is that the fascists in charge won’t hesitate to use violence against you. If you choose to not defend yourself from it, then you’re sitting ducks, and they get free reign. It has nothing to do with “bloodlust”. It’s about defending yourself from an abuser. Why did you assume I tried to shame you? I’m not the original commenter.

It’s not about bloodlust, it’s about not being sitting ducks

It’s your country that’s falling apart, it’s going to affect primarily you (at first, and then the rest of the world)

Seriously! I don’t understand why this is such a hard concept to grasp

Just because it’s a passive or hidden violence, or done from a complete disregard of people, doesn’t make it less violent towards the affected

It’s like the whole thing of how “murder is bad but war is acceptable”. Like, why is one perceived so different just because it’s state sanctioned? It’s considered abhorrent to talk about violently removing a war criminal from their position of harm. It’s complete nonsense
