  • Were you "popular" in school?

  • Treatment comes in many forms and can differ very widely from person to person.

    Even if you don't find the help you want right away, you know about it at least.

    Enjoy your somewhat guilt free life. 👋

  • I am sure there was a sense of relief to the part of you that always blamed you for the perceived inadequacies.

  • Any FLOSS alternative's to Ground News?

    Jump

  • You should make one. It could be fun to make.

    Since how you define something as being one political leaning over another is subjective (mostly), You could allow community to label the outlets and let it reflect current views and use feddy protocol, so you can have multiple aggregators that have different labels.

  • Can't understand this, you'll have to simplify.

    If you mean to say socialism is communism lite. Sure, that's exactly what it is. That's a good transitory model.

    Direct transition is susceptible to hijacking by fascists.

  • I am trekkie then. I want a post scarcity future where EVERYONE is equal and all we care about is exploring space.

  • It's more socialism than communism. But ofcourse depends on which side of lemmy you are on.

  • I could see an alternative where the community curates and assigns the political learnings.

    But yeah, otherwise it is just a service.

  • Do you feel sad for people born today?

  • We need more optimism, for sure. But I can't get my head around the idea that the new generation will be better than us.

    The 70 years of relative stability has been exchanged by a few dickheads to make as much money over the expense of everyone as possible. Those people mean to keep it that way.

    Even if I am being pessimistic, social media has made everything so depressing. We used to believe in continuous progress, we used to be excited about the future.

    No, we have to funnel money to that lizard bot so he and his buddies can build their private bunkers because they know what they're doing is fucked up, but the money is too enticing.

  • Is the amount of Lemmy activity declining?

    Jump

  • I doubt people on lemmy are below the age of 20, give or take.

  • Former GM Executive: BYD cars are good in terms of design, features, price, quality. If we let BYD into the U.S. market, it could end up destroying american manufacturers

    Jump

  • Dunno, seems like a global problem. European car companies are scared too. And they don't make those big cars.

    The only issue I see is that china is very hostile with how it deals with other countries, otherwise this is just the trend of how things work out. In the 80s, it was the japanese car industry.

  • Even if they changed how would they win?

    They're just too expensive to manufacture as compared to chinese ones.

  • I think the difference is that - chatgpt is very personified. It's as if you were talking to a person as compared to searching for something on google. That's why a headline like this feels off.

  • How indeed

    Jump

  • Scrumptious?

  • What's a really popular game franchise you just can't get into?

    Jump

  • Interesting.

    Let me rephrase: I always believed it had good writing, but lacked interesting enough scifi concepts for me. In my opinion good writing trumps all, but having a interesting hook always makes writing more accessible.

    I had already seen the same save the world and interspecies stuff by the time I was concious enough to play mass effect. (I am not that young, but I think mass effect came out in 2007.)

  • What's a really popular game franchise you just can't get into?

    Jump

  • Curious to know why.

    Mass effect for me feels like it's generic scifi, so I can't get into it and appreciate the writing but KOTR has a star wars flair at least.

  • The heart thing is not unique to India?

    It's a very common thing to take the heart out by villians everywhere.
