Haha, the chat system? That will be a shitshow. Oh my, thank you dessalines@lemmy.ml for creating an alternative. :)

Lol, first I hear about paid subreddits (I am not much on reddit since they ended 3rd party apps). This might actually be the end of reddit, if they are really that dumb.

Nah, that is not really true. There has been a significant bump due to covid, but before covid IQ test results have shown constant improvements.

That said, I don't think IQ and political idiocy are that strongly correlated. I've met a lot of highly trained people, who would doubtlessly get great IQ test results, who are politically extremely gullible.

That also said, IQ tests are a quite flawed way to assess intelligence.

My personal believe is: This is not about people getting dumber, but about propagandists getting better. I also think that unsteadiness is a way better catalysator for fascism than low intelligence.

Nope: "very bad".

That was pretty much what I meant.

It was.

Lots of the money comes from the US and US companies. But as you said, it is open source.

Linux was awesome 15 years ago. They probably just had driver problems. Those used to be much worse.

I get most of my work done on friday afternoons. It is also the only time of the week when I actually enjoy work. Finally I can relax, knowing the phone won't ring. (And I start feuds with anyone who calls me on my workphone on friday afternoons!).

P (And E) are for stochastic functions.

I was sitting next to my wife for a few hours talking to her (we brought food and so on, so no need for me to go anywhere).

I mean, I would have had time to play games, but I doubt I'd still be married. Tbf, I never even thought about that possibility before seeing this post.

I could maybe understand it, if it was a problematic pregnancy. Like, the wife of a friend of mine had to lie in a hospital bed for several weeks before giving birth to reduce the risk of premature birth. You'll want to spend as much time there as possible, but after sitting in a room together for weeks, this might start to sound like a good idea,

I have a kindle, but I never buy my books at Amazon. I just but them elsewhere, de-DRM them on calibre and copy them to the kindle. Not as comfortable, but okay for me.

First, what laws are violated? Doubt international law touches this, US law maybe?

edit: Why the F do you downvote me? This is an honest question. I really dislike Trump, but I don't see what laws this violates, except maybe US laws regarding the separation of powers-

My father was always going on about how stupid it is to buy a car designed by computer scientists and electrical engineers. He himself is an electrical engineer who has a PhD in computer science. He might have been on to something.

They really do take 80s and 90s dystopian movies as inspiration. Almost funny how ridiculous unimaginatively evil that are.

Who is she?

Edit: never mind: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paula_White

Edit 2: she is a prosperity theologian? Tbf, I am no christian, but i really doubt this is what Jesus wanted.

I feel personally attacked, I agree with the article, but painfully so.

Aren't the algorithm in use pretty much scientifically published?

When I heard there is a chinese one I was mostly surprised that other people were surprised.

Would be more efficient if she'd also smoke 30 cigarettes a day.
