I don’t say please and thank you to any inanimate objects whatsoever and if I were to begin doing so (which I will never do) computers would be the very last to receive that treatment from me. Personifying computers is not practice for how to treat people. Fuck clankers

But I don’t want to be nice to strangers on the internet, I want to take it out on you cause I can’t take it out on people in real life

What

Nah. Fuck being polite to computers. It’s an object and I own it. I’ll shoot it the instant it expresses any level of personhood.

It’s fucked up how people here only seem to have an issue with the cow getting artificially inseminated. The bulls can’t consent either. Just like with humans, people either don’t concern themselves with male consent, don’t think sexual abuse of men matters nearly as much as when it happens to women. I don’t really have an opinion on artificial insemination, I just found it fucked that this misandrist double standard is so strong it even extends to animals.

Don’t mistake this as me saying this work-til-you-die shit is okay, cause it’s not. But freedom is as much a mindset as it is a material circumstance. There are people who have everything but freedom and there are people who have nothing but freedom.

This is Lemmy Shitpost, everything here is a joke.

dude, this isn’t rage bait. it’s clearly a joke.

Here are my rules for avoiding companies/services based on name:

• No first names
• No “-ly”, “-ify”, or similar
• No baby talk
• No glossary terms

Follow these rules and you’ll avoid 90% of slop. Not specifically AI slop, human slop too.

Correct, and this post is about Bitcoin, which is PoW.

It’s not 51% of the coins, it’s 51% of the computing power on the network. Both of which are virtually impossible in the case of Bitcoin, though not entirely impossible. I just wouldn’t consider a 51% attack even remotely a threat to the network compared to something like government crackdown

When will people realize that republicans do not support the first (edit: SECOND, lmao, but yeah first too) amendment? They support use of force to further their agenda. That’s it. Making gun ownership out to be a right wing thing is such a gigantic fuckup.

Just cause you only liked something when you were young doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Everyone talks about the perspective you gain as an adult, but people don’t talk enough about the perspective you lose along the way.

What do you mean do something, can’t you see we’re posting about it? Jokes aside, choosing to not have kids is doing something about it.

dating sucks cause people suck. collectively we hold ourselves to remarkably low standards.

Object permanence fail

I literally don’t care at all what people do to resist ICE. Go buck wild, you won’t hear me complaining. I’m literally just saying that characterizing this as a silly little prank is lying when the intention is obviously to cause real physical harm. I do hope that this doesn’t lead to innocent people getting hurt though. Odds are they just salted it the next day anyway.

I don’t know, man. I’m not a statistician, I’m just going off what they reported. I thought we all kinda agreed the CDC was one of the last reputable parts of our government.

It’s an obvious public safety risk, seeing as the government takes action to mitigate the risk everywhere it gets icy every single year. Besides that, if we are placing anecdotes above official reporting, I only really know about this danger because my dad had a friend who was young and healthy who died from smacking his head on the sidewalk after slipping on ice.

You know how sarcasm works right? The comment is obviously downplaying the risk, same as pretty much every other comment on this post. Like damn. If I could have replied to all of the comments here I would have but I chose to reply to this one. I’m not even saying don’t trap the roads, I’m just saying we don’t need to be bullshitting about it online.

Listen I hate ICE as much as the next guy but portraying slipping on ice as harmless is dishonest at best. Slipping and falling is very likely to result in hospitalization or death (over a third of the time, according to the CDC)

We can discredit ICE without distorting reality. All distorting reality does is discredit OURSELVES.
