  • He's been doing this for a while now. He fired the entire PR department and set it to respond with poop emojis and every article editor that's reached out for a comment has had this as their reply.

    He's a man-child. And one of the most powerful and influential people on earth.

    This is far from ok. ☹️

    But so it goes...

  • Reposting my reply to someone else on this topic for visibility:

    The Russian scammers are using a ton of proxies and VPNs. Unfortunately, this change will not affect them unless the Russian government completely removes access to the global Internet, and even then, the corruption is so deep that many officials will be selling access to the global Internet to their friends or people with with money.

    Russian scammers and social media manipulators are here to stay, likely because they're largely state run initiatives and they'll still have access to the global Internet.

    What this does is keep the normal Russians insulated from the rest of the world and unable to coordinate outside of their own country, where everything they do is even more tightly controlled by the government.

  • “It will not be we who reach Alpha Centauri, and the other nearby stars. It will be a species very like us – but with more of our strengths and fewer of our weaknesses.” — Carl Sagan

    This one has been my go to for years and years.

    It gives me comfort. In that we probably won't every get there, because of our evolutionary failures as a species, but that's ok. Because the next species or evolution of our kind will stand a better chance.

  • Would you step foot in a sub that Musk personally had a hand in building given the shitshow of Twitter and all the idiotic things that are coming to light he's done at other companies.

    Plus, like, just listen to the dude talk. Absolutely no way would i trust my life to anything he's ever remotely been involved in.

  • If you read the article, it called out that this is not protected by law. They are claiming open ai got access to her books and works through sites that had illegally obtained it.

    This is not covered by previous rulings around scraping.

  • We're afraid of all government spying, including our own. I just think most Americans don't really understand that other governments, especially in the EU, have significantly better privacy laws and protections for foreigners than America has for its own citizens.

  • I'll admit you make some fair points.

    This pair are completely incompetent and should absolutely never become parents/grandparents.

    However the fact that police investigated, asked for chat logs from a social media provider, and are intimidating the two of them and we're all talking about it is the entire point.

    Fear. They want us to be at reach others throats on this issue.

    You sound like a reasonable person. I think we can both agree that what the police are doing right now is wrong. Even at 20 weeks, which is very late in the pregnancy game, as you say, the decision for what to do with her body should have been between her and her doctor only.

    We should not have courts getting involved in this crap again like it's pre the 70s all over. Those were not good times for women.

    The two of them could absolutely have been smarter about what they did. But what they did shouldn't be receiving national attention because it should have stayed between the two of them and their doctor.
