I'm not using text-to-speech engines, I am bad at writing all by myself

Drunktexting and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
The main point why I wrote it was that I don't find them either bots or artifical influencers. They do probably want to have some reach or fresh blood, but don't want their local culture to be spread too thin like it's reddit 2.0. They are anything but cancer that I've met seeing real botfaming ops.
And, although I don't share many of their thoughts, most of the posts I see in my feed discuss common issues where we aren't that far from each other. Closer, than to maga/zionist/z-crowd. And in that context I find it alright to not draw any lines and just talk.
When things start to get overly political, well, that's a whole another thing, where different bestest solutions are incompatible, historical betrayals are dugged up and the internet infighting ensues. It's exhausting and pointless with just 2mil mostly irrelevant nerds on Fediverse. It's easier to just scroll through some amuzing takes, and instead focus on things where we can cooperate.

You've ignored whatever I said to drop a one-line generalized response, not an organic one, and didn't elaborate why it relates to what I said.
Isn't that a behavior of a useful tool you alert others against? I don't assume you are one. But I get some vibes you don't act in a good faith there.

There are obviously agents from elsewhere, and some of them may be pretty effective, but it's nothing compared to Trump and Co getting money from the likes of Saudis and acting like they own the place. If the main concern is american politics, well, the real worms aren't theoretical or real foreign enemies, but corrupted fuckheads that ignore human, state rights, shutdown government, pack people from the streets to deport. No enemy could've done such damage so-called friends are doing.

I wouldn't call them that. Most if not all of them are genuine people with some having accs for many years before Reddit crossed the line for most of us and them becoming anyhow relevant to interfere. In a recent hexbearean post about fediverse negativity I've read a couple of opinions with a notion that federating with others wasn't that great, and they were pretty happy just by themselves. I assume, it's the same for other two too. That's a game too long and effortful to be a psyop imho. Their positions and where they get their info are things to argue, but let's not get as far as dehumanizing them.
Almost everywhere I soundly proclaim that I am a russian dummy anarchist, that I live in that state for I have no options, and I angrily disagree with their fascination, mystification of what it is, I hold a grudge with anyone who wants that russki mir to be the model the whole world should share.
I, nevertheless, find a lot of points, like personal stuff and grieveancies, theoretical things, sympathy to protesters, to Gazan survivors that I share with them. Unlike transparently racist/fascist troll comms that were there, unlike their campaigns I've noticed, there is a huge population of real people worthy of talking, arguing with.
Call me any names and ban me, but as long as any person or community is supportive of basic pillar causes like body autonomy, you, like, can at least talk to them and find something in common.
What I missed though, is that Diva said the same, but misleadingly doubted the existence of russian bot networks. Them and state suppression ruined the rusophonic space to that degree I dropped it altogether. I don't know how their actions affected other countries, but as a nolifer shitposting addict trying to trust them just a bit, I came through fire, water and copper tubes before dropping them altogether. They are like current Twitter, but worse. And, well, fuck, I wasn't abandoning that to find the next option already corrupted.

That test sounds like a model trainroad but for billionaires.
What I got from it is that it's not guessing the color. It recreates what it saw on a colorful test sample when it had a similar input - a guy that walked around the room, creating interference. It can as well be a moving barrel of similar proportions and surface characteristics. Changing room geometry or adding another moving body at the same time means it should be retrained from the scratch. So the picture is a total aproximation and a crude one. But what can be done blind, without a camera while learning - is get trained on empty room and tell when there is someone there. What is significant though - if you have some way to timestamp wifi input with a sight from outside of a window, you can match these two and then tell where, aproximately, someone stays without having a good look on the scene.
I'd have liked to make an installation of a dozen of them, an altar, like you can see in some games/movies. All of them on top of each other with different angles, but showing you something in sync, before every one of them shows a glitching digital eye looking at you.

I'd counter, but realistically just add to your sentiment by vouching for having non-online alternatives for most of our needs. Banking and government's services in my country are on the edge of going full web/sim-driven, and I don't like it that way. If I happen to get the delivery from my post office, they default to sms confirmation, and I'm not sure if I can get my parcel just by showing my ID card.
Internet access should be a human right, just as avoiding it should.

They were onto something.
I watched that vid back to back and although the intent is good and the person is alright, the vid is terrible, awful even. Some whole sentences were repeated three times, over and over, in this TikTok vertical format with captions and a direct stare into the camera from a close distance. It's exhausting.
Due to the way he narrated things, I'm not sure what was the point he drew there. If it's his 'It's not 1931, it's worse, welp, based, but based on what? Because he loosely referenced how some unions, then proffessional associations caved in, and from that point he repeated over and over the same 'then it took months, but now it took hours'. And even dropped a wrench somewhere of 'no, it's different' but proceded to continue. And by the 9 minute mark it sounds almost like a mantra, like a hypnosis practitioner putting your into an alternative state of mind, or some MK Ultra agent coding thought into your mind eased by several undisclosed substances.
Is it, like, a wake up call or something? What's the meaning of it? Even if it was to inform out-of-the-loop people of what's going on, it's brought down by the baggage of never elaborated-on ideas repeated ad nauseum. Like, if the sole idea is how you can strike one for others to fall in line, was the central, it could bear at least the same repetition as other parts.
IMHO, this exact video has negative value, because it doesn't provide any information, this person just reiterates his opinion and doesn't explain what it's based on, just points onto, I guess, your preexisting notion of historical parallelism, while not providing any substance, tapping into your feelings territory, trying to agitate you towards weakly explained idea. That's more fitting to a populist speaking from the tribune than a welcome guide through the mess american politics became.
At some point one can reduce consumption to 'Previously on the show...' and 'Watch next...' bits before and after an episode.
It's Bibi flexing muscles in the most inappropriate way once again. Almost like a brand account posting a deeply unfunny meme joke but said account is for an international spy/terrorist network.
But young person being afraid of getting mossad'ed for his internet posting for a long period of time and not getting any (medical) attention is the centerpiece of that story, not the eventual snap, and not even a backlash we see in the media now. There are a lot of these neglected and driven insane dudes that fash chaotically nurtured with no understanding of how to manage them, or even care, more likely hoping they'd ride the wave. Well, Shapiro canceled his appearance right after the event, and the whole martyr thing is probably also because they want to retarget such shooters from now on, exaggerating how it's wrong to harm exactly them, not the other side, assuming there is still more to come and being afraid of how indiscriminate these attacks would be. Seizing the opportunity is one thing, but I do find they geniunely weren't prepared for what they wished into existence.

Theoreticisizing LLM's usefulness and resourcefulness doesn't help you there. For now they are rather useless embaracingly inefficient resoucehogs existing purely because of the bubble. It's a gamble at best, or a waste of resources and a degradation of human workforce at worst.
