@Rob_T_Firefly To what benefit even is such dumb fake person bot account?

@RickiTarr It will tho. Them. Many fall into depression and have issues with suicide because they can't be what they feel they are. Also people who want to transition with hormon therapy often can't transition well if it's done very late. Many who transitioned at right time using hormones can't even be distinguished as trans on the outside and I'm sure that greatly improves their self image and acceptance from society. So, yeah, just let them be themselves, it mostly affects them and no one else

@nixCraft Ah yes, the uncanny valley truth telling momma of two. What other dumb shit corporations will think off lol? It's like they don't understand the SOCIAL part of SOCIAL NETWORKS they run. No one wants to read posts and watch creepy Ai generated photos from a god damn Ai chat bot. Are they all stupid or something?

@trainguyrom @nixCraft One might say "but you need control over updates so things don't go wrong". I've updated it every time updates were available and it didn't. It's annoying to maintain systems used by others who aren't into computers like my parents who use that system and they have no clue why there is a popup about updates. It's why I want if it just updates the damn thing quietly as per settings. It already doesn't need password from user, why bother with popup? Just automatically do it.

@trainguyrom @nixCraft Primary reason I prefer Ubuntu over basically all other distros is because it quietly and seamlessly updates apps and itself (mostly). Yes, Snaps are sometimes weird and have issues, but they fixed this through years and OS updates don't require me to punch in my password every god damn time like ALL other distros. Like, fuck me, just update the fucking thing and don't bother me. I wish Ubuntu just auto updated without popup about updates, but oh well.

@nixCraft I have my personal rule to stay as close to primary distro as possible. For example, Ubuntu is just 1 fork away from Debian. I'm not gonna touch a fork that's already a fork of Ubuntu.

@ai6yr Totally not creepy with Elon climbing up governments rectum...

@billyjoebowers Lol, I've known that for years. He's a moron. He's good at hiring actual smart people and taking credit for their hard work. That, he is excellent at. His products are still shit and I'd rather walk than ever own a Tesla.

@Chesi @QasimRashid They allow, encourage and demand them to satisfy investors. They are as guilty as anyone else when claims are denied.

@RickiTarr Or worse, Ai was learning on Ai generated stuff and just degenerated itself, like re-saving a modified image thousands of times, it just degrades and gets worse and worse.

It's what I warned about for a long time now. First wave of Ai stuff was all trained on human data. How it will differentiate live image from Ai generated that was done with halucination of an Ai? It can't, it'll just train from it.

@molly0xfff Isn't Wikipedia maintained by people? They can be of any political leaning.

@nixCraft And who will ensure these rich fucks will just pay their fucking taxes?

@adhdeanasl It only happens when you shoot a CEO or some other rich fuck. What other mass shooter who moved dozens of children or other "non important" people had such security parade around him? How many of them were instantly designated as "terrorist" even though they were by every definition? No one. It's this elitist bullshit where they want to send a message not to fuck around with the rich and give him a life sentence based on terrorism excuse because he'd only get like 20 for a murder.

@GossiTheDog A reminder to not buy Tesla shit...

@mackaj @rhelune @Lundemo @Nickiquote @Elleaster Lithium pieces thrown out of battery pack also look like fireworks when it ignites individually.

@sandorspruit @chartgerink It's a generic warning from browser that extension can access those things if you grant it access. It doesn't mean it will however.

@chartgerink I'm assuming it doesn't work if cookie banners are blocked by adblockers or other tools?

@Cerulean_Code_Wyrm @Sheril We can send Tardigrades to moon Europa at least. Assuming there isn't other aquatic life already there. At least they should survive if Earth dies.

@Cheeseness @Sheril Tony Tardigrade's Pro Skating 2

@straphanger That's not "burst into flames" like I was expecting, that was full on explosion!
