  • They weren't their "normal lives". People were affected by the rule of the nazi party since it very quickly installed a new social order in the country. We shouldn't think that the move of the country towards violent totalitarianism happened without people noticing.

    But just like now, the future wasn't obvious. If you could have convinced people in 1932 that the nazi party world start WW2, they wouldn't have voted for it. If you could have convinced them in 1935 that not only will they be anther world war, but their nation would try and almost succeed in exterminating various peoples from their own country, people world have violently rebelled and deposed the nazis, but that wasn't obvious. It wasn't obvious even in 1938 - "peace for our time", eh? So people did grudgingly accepted what was happening while completely misunderstanding the seriousness of the situation.

    There is no way around this. It will happen again and again and there is no way to prevent it because this shift from a strong democracy to authoritarianism is so impossible to believe that people will rather go by their preconceptions rather than the evidence in front of them and simply refuse to think something like this can actually happen.

    This is why it isn't reasonable to expect the people to simply take to the streets. We need leadership

  • that would likely turn on him in a heart beat.

    Again, what happens to him personally or to Facebook as a company is irrelevant when it comes to how our lives are affected. The regulation of social platforms is good for society regardless of the efect regulation has on the owners or the companies owning the platforms.

    Your argument is built around the wrong desirable outcome.

  • my experience with iCloud is pretty bad. I worked in a startup at some point which was giving Macs to employees and sort of expected them to figure it out. We had a few people quit and that's when we figured out that the macs became shiny useless things since we didn't have access to wipe the associated account and Apple didn't help in any way. So, from my experience, this is a horrible "feature".

    Now i find out that it's even worse and it gives 3rd parties means to harass you... I really think that avoiding theft comes at a far to high a price

  • ISIS? Hamas? any number of such organizations would happily use some mass murdering weapons if given access to them. Putin has shown that he doesn't care about what happens to russian citizens if he can win something out of their suffering so empowering terrorist organizations to harm people, even russians, is not a big price to pay to make his point

  • Is it though? The author of this article knows what they're doing, but a regular person would probably not be as relaxed with some of the threats. I didn't see this in the article, how does the thief have the ability to contact the victim?

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    I keep having to login to Lemmy on any iPhone browser every time I navigate to a new page. Is there a way to keep me logged in?

  • Google AI suggested you put glue on your pizza because a troll said it on Reddit once…

    Genuine question: do you know that's what happened? This type of implementation can suggest things like this without it having to be in the training data in that format.
