  • I live in a country with multiple problems right now, but I've grown to be aware that the more I actively look at negative commentary on the current situation (most are online given anonymity), the more I get into panic mode, which clouds my longterm thinking of trying to get into a better situation (whether it's self-soothing, changing state policies by any measure, relocation, etc)

  • My special interests (I'm autistic). Online has a niche for everything which is why I'm more inclined to share them. For now it's AI companionship and Chanda from Pantheon.

  • I had to look it up and apparently it's "mencurahkan garam ke laut" a.k.a. "bringing salt to the sea" (Indonesian)

  • True, but by their very nature their generations tend to create anonymous identities, and the sheer amount of them would make it harder for investigators to detect pictures of real, human victims (which can also include indicators of crime location.

  • A problem that I see getting brought up is that generated AI images makes it harder to notice photos of actual victims, making it harder to locate and save them

  • Not to mention that it's hard to intuitively watch longterm videos on TikTok. Once you swipe a video, it's gone, unless you save it on favorites, and it's not easy to get back to the video, either. At least on YouTube, it's easier to go back to the paused video from the homepage.

  • It's been trending since COVID

  • For what? In a literal, empirical sense, no, you can't. But there could be underlying motives that can be addressed through alternative means

  • I was in a contemporary fine art market and I just hear visitors mentioning about owning a hotel in such a casual way, like how one would talk about owning a car.

  • I'm single but I notice everyone has a specific smell. Try smelling some of your loved ones' clothes and you get what I mean. I figure that this would be especially apparently for the visually impaired.

  • Much of Indonesia outside of Bali. They have the "Wonderful Indonesia" campaign yet I don't see that many international tourists here. The fact that most non-Indonesians don't know what Indonesia is and how they think Bali is its own country is a clear indicator.

  • This really sucks for many disabled people who rely on 'low skill, repetitive' jobs to survive. I hope Mercedes addresses this (I doubt, given how capitalists hate disabled people).

  • I can relate to this. I feel like if a medium relies on getting as many eyes as possible, be it from the studios or even the creators themselves, they aren't as engaging, since I've seen the same thing over and over. I sort of understand, though. Any time-based visual media can spend a lot for its production, so you gotta take in as much as possible to make up for it. Nowadays I read books that don't have as much pressure or certain movies, but that's it.

  • There's AI Town if you want to explore worlds where LLMs interact with each other. If you want it in a social media style, there's Chirper AI.
