I've met people like that here in the UK too. Trump has this incomprehensible charisma for arseholes the world over.

I hope so. A good step would be for the UK to rejoin the EU but that seems unlikely to happen in the next decade. But we need to build solidarity and resilience, and like you say, increase our independence as much as feasible

Yeah, that's fair, I thought it would probably be something like that. TBF it's work, they're paying me, I'll use whatever they choose. I won't have it on my own computer though just because of Microsoft's hard sell

I'm curious, what good do you see trump doing for the country? It seems to me that he's doing a lot of harm but we probably have differing views

I certainly wouldn't be crying myself to sleep that night.

I kinda feel like the 'never genocide' people were always secretly embarrassed trumpsuckers.

But I don't have a problem with mods giving them the same protections as the rest of us. I think those people are a bunch of wankers but I don't want Lemmy turning into more of an echo chamber than it already is.

Almost like it was intentional.

Yeah. Funny thing, that.

I'm not American but wouldn't that mean Vance becomes president? It's tempting to think he couldn't be any worse, but trump likes the fucker so who knows?

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I dunno if you are aware but there's also a steam deck sub here and they'd probably be happy if this was posted there too.

Yeah, but we know what happens with bubbles.

I can see it being used to make images of people who don't know and haven't consented though and that's pretty shit

You mean deep fakes? Yeah it's really a not great development

Yeah, but I'm sure it'll improve in time. I can't really see what's the point of AI porn though, unless it's to make images of someone who doesn't consent, which is shit. For everything else, regular porn has it covered and looks better too.

They'll do that anyway.

I would. I imagine the battery could be sold for a decent sum, and scrap prices for stainless steel usually aren't bad.

They're ugly and apparently the build quality is shite. Even without the inescapable nazi association I can't imagine they would have sold lots.

Yeah, exactly. Musk has totally burned his market. Maybe he doesn't care now he's got power. I do feel sorry for the people who bought a Tesla a few years ago because they wanted to reduce their environmental impact and who are now stuck with a car that has a powerful nazi association. I wonder if there's a spike in people trying to sell them.

My work insists on using it too. Fuck knows why, maybe it's a security thing? And my personal laptop is constantly nagging me to use edge - it could be the best browser ever and I would still avoid it just because of the pushiness.

You're entitled to your opinion, just like I'm entitled to think it's bollocks.

Yeah. There's been something of a drought recently though. Most of the headlines I read these days make me cringe like a salted slug.

Also I don't know how old Chelsea is now but she looks great in that photo
