  • Forget the obvious bullshit that is being unable to sell it. What's this about autopilot/FSD not being transferable?

    Who the hell would buy this monstrosity of a truck. Be sure not to buy FSD since it will be a lost cost and never recouped for a capability that really doesn't work yet. $12,000 down the drain.

  • Why should a company get to use my work and data for free to train their AI, for which they'll make a ton of money, without compensating me. At a minimum they should be informing me so I can make that choice with full knowledge.

    This isn't a university or educational research either, this is one of the largest companies in the world with Billions of dollars in annual revenue. And to top it off, I already have to pay them for their operating system and annually for their office suite. So not only am I paying them for their product, they'll then steal my data to train an AI to try and sell that to us too?

    That's not even taking into account any concerns with "AI might replace me at my job" that a number of folks have.

  • Yeah, that's not the job of the government. While I agree that the divorce rate in the country is surprisingly high and I personally think that's a bad thing, one partner should not be trapped in a relationship they want out of because "they're not allowed out". If either side of a relationship wants to end it, that's their right.

    A judge should not have to determine if a reason is "good enough". And despite religious beliefs, from the government's perspective, marriage is a 2 sided contract that can be ended at will.

    If your church or personal beliefs say otherwise, that's up to them. Keep it out of my government.

  • Yet the lady doesn't define what ultra-processed is. I have little doubts that eating McDonald's every day is bad for you, but in their study did they include stuff like kraft Mac and cheese, dehydrated mashed potatoes, cereal, etc as "ultra-processed?".

    Whole thing reads like click bait with no actual science behind it, would love to see the results of an actual study on the topic too.

  • How do you think those people got power and how do you think those rich people keep their money? It's not just the illuminati in the background. They use free speech to convince people that their problems are caused by someone different, not the guy on the microphone robbing them blind.

    I don't think it's a controversial statement to say fuck Nazis, we literally fought an entire war to make that statement. They don't get to have a podium anymore, because their ideas are evil and harmful to others

  • Have to be intolerant of intolerance or you lose freedom and free speech. We as a society have to decide that intolerant speech that tries to remove rights from certain demographics is in fact harmful and evil and intolerable.

    We're not talking about academic debates here or hypothetical arguments. Folks are actively working to reduce the rights of others, and in some places they're winning. Advocating to reduce rights of others is not okay.

    Normally I would agree censorship is not the answer. However without limits, we will see hate gain ground. Part of being a society is setting limits of acceptable behavior, we can't shit in the aisle at the grocery store, we can't propagate hate speech, both of these rules (should) exist to protect ourselves as a group. Pretty simple stuff.

  • The US Military also uses IRC, is that the future too? I'm sick of the ridiculous Signal hate with basically no good reason. Basically everything is run in AWS, or Azure, or Google cloud. All the governments have contracts with those cloud providers, because almost every organization large enough has things in the cloud.

    Obfuscation is not meant to be foolproof. Without something like the Tor network (oh wait, the NSA and other organizations have already taken over that) WHO you talk to is not hard to determine. If someone is monitoring ALL network traffic in the world, they'll know who is talking to who everywhere. But with good end to end encryption and no server side logging recording who you talk to, that's definitely a good enough combo for me.

    XMPP is certainly not a bad protocol, but I'm not seeing a reason to justify the Signal hate.
