And there needs to be a WFH policy that states reasonable responsiveness. If on a break, set you chat status as such.

Of course there are workarounds, like just carrying you phone with chat app.

Then it really does boil down to people management.

Your definitions, not mine.

Extremes are untenable. There has to be a compromise at some point.

I think your leftist definition is more moderate than mine.

I think many moderates agree on the general premise of what you want, but how to get there will take more work.

I’m far from enlightened, and I’m clearly ignorant for pissing up hill with a reactionary such as yourself.

Good luck. Enjoy your life of suffering and toil.

Great response, thank you.

When you are making fun of the “other side”, whether left or right, it won’t open their eyes and ears to a counterpoint. It gets instantly dismissed. It’s wasted effort IMHO. I want people to listen to all this research and insight.

That’s the crux of my issue with this approach.

I think we need to get rid of the voting system altogether. There’s a much better system based on interactions and comment sentiment measurement that in trials on reddit provide better results of floating values posts to the top.

It’s a fire hose of free speech. Block and filter what you don’t want to see. For now.

Censorship is something you can control on a personal level. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean that the world should not be exposed to it.

I personally hide 99% of political stuff on Xtwitter. Makes for a cool open discussion on tech and my other hobbies.

I love the detail and information. I hate the presentation. It may carry more weight if it felt more serious. A thoughtful presentation of the facts is here but you have to wade through comedic delivery. We don’t need another Jon Stewart. We need more discussion from both sides. Ignoring extremists, there are some very wise people in the true liberal and conservative camps. Time to bring them together. Point out the leftists and alt right for being the unreasonable people that they are.

Hahaha. Copper top.

I think that what AI may do, for a long time, is enhance our hobbies.

Those who can, do. Those who can’t, AI.

Just like early cryptocurrency, there will be value in work done. Seeing an artist create will be just as valuable as the resulting artwork.

Thanks for doing the work.

Consideration for readers. Remember not everyone lives where you do and has the same access and infrastructure that you do.

Some US states are pushing for EV but do not have the power production needed to support it at scale. Maybe another 10 or 20 years when everyone has a nuclear reactor in their backyard.

I’m all for EV for those that it makes sense. For many, especially the impoverished, it’s just another barrier to overcome.

The report is very light on comparative data. It does look cherry picked. I’d be much more interested in a real piece of research. I do see the point of CCDHs claims. But it’s pretty weak. Free speech has some uncomfortable aspects that the general populace doesn’t want to see. Blocking and filters can help tune the fire hose to your individual preferences. For example on X, I filter all the political out of my feed. It’s not that hard, people are just lazy.

[–] b1ab@lem.monster 5 points 1 year ago

Exactly.

Not everyone is on twitter for the political bullshit. Using banned words it’s easy to filter any political garbage. Twitter is quite useful. But I’m not there to convince or push my ideology on a bunch of polarized people. What a waste of energy.

[–] b1ab@lem.monster 5 points 1 year ago

Fuck off already.

God bless the hackers, crackers, reverse engineers, and disrupters. Pray they help keep you free of too much pain.

2e. We like the role playing more than rolling dice to simulate a pen and paper MMO.
