I agree, either floating stuff into neighboring countries is fine or it's not.

'Oh we were sending illegal stuff into your country but it's OK because we're the good guys' is something both sides would say so our media supporting one and deriding the other is silly - and yes they both say they're sending good things and the enemy is sending bad things.

Yes like in America gun violence never happens because everyone has guns.

Hmmm

So a British kid got paid by the Russians to burn down a Ukrainian businessmans warehouse? That's pretty dumb, and kinda scary. Is this going to be the start of freelance darkweb mercenaries paid by belligerent states to sabotage their home country? I hope not because the added security they'd bring in to try and stop it would make life much harder for all of us.

I think people overlook how much of the internet Google helped create too, I kinda feel for them fighting against endless scammers, manipulators, gifters, etc. They've made a lot of peoples lives easier without charging them for it, this disproportionately helps poorer people more especially tools like maps, translate, and search.

It's slang you'd hear 50 years ago in the east end and Essex. You'll only really hear it used by gangsters in movies these days or someone putting on the accent for laughs, possibly from an old geezer, you certainly won't hear it used by respectable establishments or family friendly media. It's not generally considered offensive but is considered uncouth.

I hope you're aware how inaccurate and biased almost all of it is then

Ai is already hugely useful and will continue to get more useful as the tech evolves. I know that change upsets you but the reality is you were not born at the highpoint of humanity or the endpoint of history.

It's going to make the world better for a lot of people just like the internet did despite the endless assertions that it was a gmick, scam, and mistake from people who were likely your age now when the internet was emerging.

The funniest thing to me is seeing this community which holds people like Aaron Swartz up as a hero demand the exact opposite of everything he believed in and fought for. Information wants to be free - you want to lock every piece in perpetual impenetrable copyright just to halt the development of tech.

This really is the lemmy mentality summed up.

Yes you're smarter than Google and the only one who really understands ai... smh

Exactly, they'd know a lot more accurately what happened too, which raises another point as to why no one comes back here - imagine gong somewhere that you know horrible things are happening to children but you can't say anything or save them because of the timeline..

Even if in the unlikely event Hawking didn't know about it talking to him and not saying 'that friend of yours epstine is a bad dude' would be unbearable.

Yes they go there snd do nothing but look at the view, totally believable!

But yes the only option is to ruin it for everyone, honestly that does seem to be the predominant thinking these days

Yeah I've been trying to recreate the same gui tools with every version and it is getting much better but it still struggles. The python specific gpt actually manages to create what I ask for and can make changes once it's got the base established, I have to correct a few little glitches but nothing too terrible.

For functions like save all the info in text boxes to Json and fill that info back in when load is pressed it never fails at. Making little test scripts for functions or layouts it saves me huge amounts of mental effort.

It's like image gen, you have to know what to expect to get the most out of it, ask for something it finds difficult it's easy to confuse it but ask for things it's good at and it'll amaze you.

They set us up the bomb.

Lemmy gets very capitalist right wing when it's about denying other people small pleasures.

To answer your questipn - With the money used to build the ugly wall, money brought in by tourists, maybe have a little event to raise funding... endless possibilities.

The thought process 'other people are stealing pleasure only I deserve' is pure capitalist brainrot. We should all be working together to make life better, when someone in the countryside uses the internet or a modern tractor that can only happen because of people in cities and all the systems that make those jobs possible, we should acknowledge this and the burden modern living puts on our souls - we should want to help our fellow humans enjoy life where they can by making it easy to enjoy the world not section it off and put a big screen to stop people enjoying it

Games like Sam and max, beneath a steelsky, it came from the desert, Dune, Darkseed, there are so many counter examples to your claim

Look at Betrayal At Krondor, amazing story that rivals and beats most fantasy today.

Yeah if only they were more like america and fighting endless wars in distant places

I've recently gone back to using reddit regularly because it's the only place with sensible news, lemmy is such a bubble it's a terrible place to get opinions and ideas from.

Yeah but the waymo ceo doesn't shitpost on Twitter so people here don't get front page hyped up stories every single time things aren't perfect

Except we don't have reliable radar navigation, what are you smoking? Are you just making things up you think should be true?

It's so funny the responses to this, it's basically 'rules shouldn't exist for people who agree with me politically'

They chose civil disobedience as a moral stand, they chose consequences - that's how it works.

You want me to give you a history lesson? Funny that when you wanted people to believe an inversion of the history everyone knows you didn't see any need for sources but now you expect me to meticulously demonstrate every word? and yes we all know it'll never be enough...

It doesn't matter though because you're not serious about what you're saying and literally no one would belive your nonsense.
