Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Creating bots that show russian-like speech that are anti-US would be a good use of AIEnglish
2·19 小时前Maybe I’m just dense but this feels a lot like the right wing’s contradiction of the immigrant that is lazy but also taking all the jobs.
If the goal of the Russian bot is to polarize discussion, how is “both sides are the same” also the goal?
Go wander around truth social for a bit and readjust your opinions

Ummm, I have some old news for you…
Whenever population control is mentioned, this inevitably comes up. No, not looking to “remove” anyone, just prevent more births than the natural environment can handle.

Easy, reliable backups are key. I’ve used komodo with automatic updates for over a year and watchtower before that for a couple more. I’ve only had one issue when Nginx Proxy Manager had a release that deleted all of its own data. Didn’t take long to realize that the services were still up and what the problem was. Restored the missing data from Proxmox backups, pinned the Nginx version for a while, then turned auto update on again. I’ll stick to this until checking updates is less work than fixing the occasional problem
Yeah, as if finding FOSS alternatives to mega-corp software wasn’t hard enough, now i have to care about the politics of a sponsor’s co-sponsor’s ceo’s husband’s dog’s groomer before I install? Pass
For the record, i literally said “if the math works out” 😁
I kinda compare it to semi truck weigh stations. I found out some time ago that if the math works out that a truck got from one weigh station to another too fast the driver can get a speeding ticket since its assumed they broke the law getting there. Apply that to money. If a person accumulates too much money, it should just be assumed that person broke laws getting it and they should be severly fined (like, most of it).

7·11 天前You see a small, loud subset of USAmericans on the web so I understand how you could think that we’re all “super hyped on patriotism” but the fact is that most of us just wake up, do normal human things then go to bed. This over-generalization of huge populations of people is making me tired.

131·13 天前I resent that the cost to the car company to install seat warmers is the actual installation of the seat warmers. Running them costs ME money in electricity generated by gasoline I bought. It costs them nothing to run them but i have to pay a subscription to use them on top of paying to power them?
The football grandstand continues to cost the owners in maintenance and space that they own. You pay for the privilege of using something that is not yours. I bought my car, I shouldn’t have to continue to pay for the privilege of using something I already own since the equipment is already there and doesn’t require any interaction with a remote service that would make sense to charge for (navigation, satellite radio, etc…)
