I think that the health insurance industry is profoundly immoral.

When it comes to strategy, however, morality doesn’t even factor in.

This smells like the second amendment argument about defending against a tyrannical government. Please, take inventory of materiel and finances before you go down that road.

I would argue there’s another deep hypocrisy lying with people who insist such figureheads should be killed, but the only action they take is blathering about it on public forums.

Be the change you seek, go set an example if you think you know what’s right.

But pitting us against the ruling class in this way isn’t going to be a winning proposition. The best you’ll get is a massive and severe security clampdown.

Agpl bitches!

And that answers OPs question.

I think most of who you’re hearing are Americans. I might hate Putin with all my heart, but he leads a different country. There isn’t “chain of command” between me and him.

Edit/more blathering:

I try to avoid the virulent speech (not always successfully I admit) about Americans’ choice in leadership. And to a large degree, at home, even that is outside my “sphere of influence”, but I at least have an opportunity to be heard by other parts of the electorate here.

And by the way, I think supporting Trump is supporting Putin. I hope I’m wrong, but I do believe that.

We can piss and moan about Putin (and we do, I’m not sure what you’re missing TBH), but investing time and emotional energy, it makes sense to start at home, where we at least should have some influence on self-determination.

Every minute is a death and a rebirth.

You play the hand you have.

Depending on your personal attachment to that car, your personal interest in a different car, your financial capacity, the ability to extend your lease is just another card you can play.

What is a “good deal” anyway? What are you seeking? Something pragmatic like equivalent reliability to your current car but for equal or less cost of ownership?

Absolutely. I worked somewhere where we routinely had alarms go off due to botnets swarming us with weird (and obnoxious) massive download tactics (of publicly available user generated content, that is).

If it can be gotten by anyone, it will be gotten by LLM trainers.

It’s open to the public. So, many other orgs are certainly doing it anyway.

May as well it’s not like they’ll be paying for many impressions.

I think I’ve heard about enough of experts predicting the future lately.

I signed up, out of curiosity but I don’t have any friends there that I know about. Kinda like Lemmy, but Lemmy but works great for not having friends.

Now that’s just a signal for training reinforcement

Guilty <-

I think it’s because people want patterns to exist even where they don’t. But this one is extra sensitive. The declaration becomes even less interesting in non-base-ten systems. I’m not even sure why 225 would be intuitive to anybody. I guess that’s what makes it a shit post.

And I suppose he’s a doctor now.

What is, standing or sitting?

Now I lay me down to pee…

We don’t normally talk about this!

We should though! We should just not be shit bags about it. Sharing & seeking info rather than having a weird chauvinistic view on how pee exits bodies.
