So by same logic we can then also assume everyone who voted for Kamala also wants U.S. to continue delivering arms to Israel, right?

SD card reader is nice to have if you fuck around with cameras and microphones.

Yeah, props to Apple for bringing back the card reader and HDMI. When I bought my early 2015 MBP I specifically went with the older model because these ports were removed on the newer one which also came with the shitty butterfly keyboard as well which they’ve also since discontinued.

Or does it only count in your book when the people dying “look like us”?

No that totally counts. Why do you need to imply I have some racist agenda here?

I think that if you add spaces around the keyword it then wont trigger if that word is contained within another word.

Another thing to note is that the post filtering also applies to usernames.

What are you basing that on? I lost a ton of followers when they started deleting bot acconts and the steady flow of around 4 new bot followers each day has died down as well. Maybe your experience has been different but if you’re not even on Twitter, I wonder how you would know.

I went thru the profiles of 10 different users whose comments were on top of the most popular subreddits and none of them seemed like bot profiles. I’m quite confident in my original statement.

I don’t think that being incorrect about something is bad in itself as long as one is not intentionally spreading disinformation. If one is confidently incorrect then they’re probably going to get a reply from someone else who is confidently correct. I’m not so much imagining a tool like this to create a social media experience free of mis- and disinformation but rather just make it a nicer place for people to be while at the same time encouragining reasonability and intellectual honesty.

You want people, their family and innocent bystanders to die because they bought a car from a company of which CEO you don’t like?

Let’s all just start vandalizing things we don’t like. I’m sure that’s a world everyone wants to live in.

I get that people don’t like Reddit but to claim it’s “mostly bots” is almost certainly false.

blinking rear light

Blinking lights are my pet-peeve with cyclists. Cars don’t have blinking lights - neither should bikes.

I’ve often thought about how social media might change if we had a fair way to rank users based on the quality of the content they post - perhaps with the help of a benign and truly competent AI for example. This AI could analyze everyone’s post history to assess how they engage with others. People who are intellectually honest and participate in good faith would be ranked higher, while those making broad generalizations, demonizing others, being mean, or just low-effort shitposting would rank lower.

If enough people fed up with online toxicity enabled such a filter, the most toxic users would suddenly find themselves shouting into the void. This would discourage toxic behavior and encourage users to put more thought and effort into their contributions. Unlike the current system, where saying popular things can easily rack up upvotes, this tool would hold people accountable for the actual quality of their engagement.

Ideally, everyone should be faced with information every day that they feel is a little uncomfortable and goes against their prior beliefs but also realise is probably true.

…after finding out they lied about the actual amount of bots there.

It’s laminated glass. Those window breaking tools only work for tempered glass. You might get it to spiderweb but the plastic layer between the glass panels is still going to hold it intact.

Implying that “the right” as a whole supports rape is such a ridiculous thing to say.

There’s probably arguments to be made both for and against this ruling. I don’t assume this is all good just because I don’t like Google.

Trump won by basically uninformed voters and media manipulation.

There’s a huge number of Trump voters who don’t even like him but are fed up with the identity politics and wokeism on the far-left and voting for Trump was just a way to get back at these people.
