I imagine you could do something with chains of trust. You trust yourself. You trust your friend you know in real life. To a lesser extent you trust people he trusts. But then one of them turns out to suck or be a bot, so now you trust your friend less.

I just use my phone to look stuff up if I’m on my steam deck.

I don’t understand why you’d want an AI browser to begin with. Most web tasks aren’t hard.

Steam and Heroic have been working fine for me for playing games on Linux.

Royal Assassin was like my favorite card back in the day, playing in school when 4th edition was new. I had a couple of them and animate dead. Good times.

I hate the AI thing in confluence. Stop asking me to improve writing or summarize. I know how to read and write.

You and someone else got hung up on the specific example. I’m sure I could have come up with a better example where the raw and nice version conveyed the same amount of information.

Freedom of speech doesn’t mean a guaranteed audience or platform.

You can write whatever you want. No one is required to read it. No one is required to host it. If they do read it, they can say whatever they want about it.

This is the fediverse. You can host your own instance and say whatever you want. No one else is required to federate with you.

If you post something and people say it’s garbage, that’s not your freedom of speech being quashed. You spoke. Now they are using their freedom of speech in response.

If someone parks illegally it should become public property. It’s yours now. Do what you want to it.

I saw a comment the other day that was like “You can be right but you still get the wheelchair”.

Also , if you want to murder someone, hit them with your car. Good odds you won’t even be charged with a crime.

There are many ways to express any given truth, or facets of the truth.

“That dress makes you look fat”

“That dress doesn’t flatter you”

We are being governed by the worst among us

I think sometimes when someone does something a little shitty for only a small payoff, it feels worse than a big shitty for a big payoff. And if it feels like they could’ve just not done the shitty thing, that’s even worse.

EA’s annoyances just feel petty and unnecessary, and aren’t even worth it. At least the horrible bank and oil company are making shit loads of money, and people kind of assume banks and oil companies are scum. But a video game? They could’ve spent just as much effort not being horrible.

If someone else is doing something good and you’re not, it’s easier to lash out at them than accept that you’re not a flawless person. Since veganism often has a moral dimension (eg: cruelty to animals, environmental damage), some people struggle with this. They want to be good people, but eating meat is being cast as bad. Thus, lash out at whatever’s making them feel bad.

Guy is a dangerous idiot. You should always use protection.

You’re not going to find a rational, well reasoned, explanation. It’s just emotions. Fear, pride, shame. Most people are too cowardly to do any difficult introspection, and an older person who’s probably never practiced it is a unlikely to start now.

Something new. Something relatable. Not a one dimensional monster. Something that makes challenges the federation’s ideals.

Like the classic meme, more courtroom battles and less spaceship battles.

I don’t agree a “maybe” is a “MASSIVE” assumption. Maybe they’re telling the truth. But maybe they’re wrong.

I didn’t make assumptions about your relationships. Please read more carefully.
