You might wanna check the usernames. I never asked why you carry coins around. I don’t even carry them. I just take them home and put them in a jar to save until there’s enough to exchange

No, you obviously don’t do it after every transaction. You save the change until you have plenty saved up and then exchange it for bills. This is what like every single person does.

What a strange person

The first one I get, but the rest have issues.

The giving water to voters thing is for political candidates. Gift giving is by far the most effective way to manipulate people into doing what you want. That’s why Jehovah’s witnesses give you a free book when they’re on mission.

Peaceful public assembly is litterally protected by the constitution. That doesn’t stop police from declaring peaceful assembly a riot and shutting it down, but that’s a different matter.

Arguing with cops never gets you anywhere good. Likewise insulting them to their face.

Nazis are objectively wrong and bad, but their right to peacefully assemble in public is just as protected as yours. Attacking them unprovoked is assault even if you have the moral high ground.

I agree with the spirit of everything you said. It’s just that vigilante justice just flat out doesn’t work. You become an example of your party’s supposedly blatant corruption and now they have someone to rally against. In most cases laws need to be changed, not broken.

I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t think that’s what the meme was meaning. I think it meant when you leave empty handed, it looks like you’re shoplifting. That makes you nervous and you start acting weird which makes you look even more suspicious and more nervous. Wash, rinse, and repeat till you get home and cry because social situations are awkward and hard and life would be so much easier if I was alone on a deserted island like Tom Hanks in that one movie.

… I might’ve lost track towards the end, but you get the idea.

I don’t really have the time to look for timestamps, but he does present his arguments from many different angles. I highly recommend watching the whole thing if you can.

Aside from that, the main thing I want to address is the responsibility of these big corporations to curate the massive library of content they gather. It’s entirely in their power to blacklist certain things like PII or sensitive information or hate speech, but they decided not to because it was cheaper. They took a gamble that people either wouldn’t care, didn’t have the resources to fight it, or would actively support their theft if it meant getting a new toy to play with.

Now that there’s a chance they could lose a massive amount of money, this could deter other ai companies from flagrantly breaking the law and set a better standard that protects people’s personal data. Tbh I don’t really think this specific case has much ground to stand on, but it’s the first step in securing more safety for people online. Imagine if the database for this ai was leaked. Imagine all of the personal data, yours and mine included, that would be available to malicious people. Imagine the damage that could cause.

This video can answer just about any question you ask. It’s long, but it’s split up into chapters so you can see what questions he’s answering in that chapter. I do recommend you watch the whole thing if you can. There’s a lot of information that I found very insightful and thought provoking

Good. Technology always makes strides before the law can catch up. The issue with this is that multi million dollar companies use these gaps in the law to get away with legally gray and morally black actions all in the name of profits.

Edit: This video is the best way to educate yourself on why ai art and writing is bad when it steals from people like most ai programs currently do. I know it’s long, but it’s broken up into chapters if you can’t watch the whole thing.

I hope that my comment didn’t read as me complaining. I fully understand that this is different from reddit and I’m grateful to every developer working on lemmy in any capacity.

I just wanted to be sure I tried all of the popular options to find what works best before fully committing to one. Out of the four, liftoff seems to be the best. The main issue it got with it is that both accounts share the same settings. If I change a setting for one account, it changes the settings for the other as well.

Okay, so I’ve been here for a few days and I’m getting increasingly confused. I used reddit exclusively on mobile and was hoping to do the same thing for lemmy. But it seems like every app has major features missing. I’ve already tried 4 different apps and every one is missing a feature I’d consider critical. Keeping two accounts separate, adjusting settings for two different accounts, commenting, replying, posting, subscribing, and searching for specific instances are all pretty important, but every app is missing one or more of these features.

Is there a quickstart guide anywhere to get more familiar with this? Does anyone know of an app that can do all of this? I’ve already tried jerboa, summit, connect, and liftoff
