  • YouTube Premium family plan is worth it for me. Sure, I can set up a PiHole and block ads. But that's only viable on networks I control; it won't work if I'm out of the house unless I want to set up a separate tunnel through my home network at all times. And I also don't have the time or inclination to set up and maintain a PiHole for each of my family members.

  • "Do you want to be as dead as this dead fuck? Then sign right up!"

  • It's unbelievable how they've politicized and weaponized politics, it's incredible.

    Ah yes, democrats have politicized politics. I swear, I've never seen a clip where Bartiromo doesn't look and sound absolutely sloshed.

  • These nazis are desperate to share Kirk's fate.

  • As they should, honestly. While those bots can be used to track down and identify predators, they have also been used for harassing and doxxing innocent users. There's little to no security oversight with those bots.

  • We tried giving the Nazis trials before. It didn't work, they're still here.

    Charlie Kirk was a christofascist Nazi, and it's just a shame that it was over quickly, because he deserved to feel it.

  • Not snide, reflective question: What makes you think you can't get banned here?

    Not that you can't get banned, but that you won't. Reddit will ban you because they're conservative-owned and operated, and love censoring any form of dissent. Most Lemmy mods don't give a fuck about your opinions as long as you're not directly calling for violence.

  • Yeah, but you can post truly based opinions on Lemmy without being banned. Such as:

    Charlie Kirk deserved it.

    That'd get you banned on Reddit.

  • If you used soap, that could be why. Soap can deteriorate the rubber gaskets and adhesives that keep the ingress protection together.

  • Just FYI, view counts don't always update in realtime. Depending on how many views a video already has and how many views it's had in the last hour, the view count may only refresh server-side in intervals.

  • I agree! I think the Fediverse needs more "normies" to be present around here. Not just for the sake of having more numbers and being a more popular platform, but we need difference of opinion, and it needs to be embraced much better than it currently is.

    When everybody in a community agrees on 99% of things, they tend to become rather tight-knit. But whenever that 1% comes up which goes against the flow, the reactions around here tend to be quick and harsh, and the 99% of other things you previously agreed with that person on get thrown out the window all because they don't share the same opinion about Linux as you, or something.

    It's not a healthy pattern for a growing community.

  • I notice that a lot here on Lemmy, and I think that's because most of us here have at least an above-average understanding of current technologies, and tend to forget that we're a very small minority of people. So when above-average understandings are commonplace in your online bubble, your view of what an "average" understanding is can become skewed.

  • You're not thinking like a lawyer.

    "Your honor, the defendant viciously and recklessly launched a dangerous substance - known to scientists as 'dihydrogen monoxide' - at my client. This chemical compound is commonly used in industrial cleaning operations and as a coolant in nuclear reactors. We seek damages up to $10,000,000,000 for pain and suffering."

  • Chaos reigns.

  • I can't believe OP would use a hard R like that! 😱

  • Well in that case I have no problem "phasing out plastics" on the nightly.

  • General intelligence is substrate dependent, meaning that it's inherently tied to biological wetware and cannot be replicated in silicon.

    We're already growing meat in labs. I honestly don't think lab-grown brains are as far off as people are expecting.

  • So does this mean it's in a state where people can start hosting their own instances and begin federating yet?

  • Keyboards don't stand a fuckin' chance now.
