All of a sudden we care about Christians in Nigeria. Oh wait, they have oil.

1960s Conservative White Man Admits He’s “Scared” to Go to Movies Because of Black Representation

“Papa, how did those people vote? They black!”

“1960s Conservative White Man then insinuated that non-slave black characters may not be appropriate in children’s movies.”

It seems that in this case the cosplying as a female is entirely unnecessary.

Since the law allows one to legally change their gender with just a simple declaration, requiring no medical exam, hormone therapy, or “proof” etc., then why would this person choose to wear all of the feminine attire and accessories when doing so is just extra unnecessary effort. They seem to be enjoying it and doing a pretty thorough job from the looks of it.

It’s making me wonder if they’ve been in the closet their entire life and this situation gives them the perfect excuse to dress and behave the way they have always wanted to.

This is a truly cursed sentence and it makes my brain hurt.

Looks like he’s been in and out of prison for much of his life. It says he received an 8 year sentence in 2018. https://tucson.com/news/local/tucsonan-gets-nearly-years-used-stolen-credit-card-numbers-to/article_35fd069b-8869-51ac-b65f-725e27f07ba7.html

It seems they convinced him that NATO and Ukraine are Nazis. Typical stuff from the play book. Dude just went all in on it. Pretty sad, he had his whole life ahead of him.

As I understand it, it is fundamentally possible, but at this point one of the worst bottle necks is the physical processing power required to analyze the video feed. Millisecond paced analysis of multiple aspects of multiple HD video feeds in real time by “AI” still takes some pretty heavy duty computational hardware at this point, which is impractical in a real world vehicle. It is prudent to do the research now though to be ready for the day when the hardware catches up. That said, I reckon that Waymo is in a much better position to do this research than than Tesla. Being under Google/Alphabet, they have access to the nearly 2 decades worth of Google Maps and Google’s machine vision training work, among other things, like not being a meme stock company headed by an emperor whose clothes are beginning to dissapear.

Empathy as a weakness is exactly what I’d expect to hear from a sociopath. If everybody thought this way, we’d have no civilized society.

So basically he’d rather they just die than live with “stuff we don’t trust”. If “everybody has to die”, then why care about what’s in a vaccine in the first place? Extreme cognitive dissonance to support an ideology.

If you were one who lived in USA and didn’t vote for him, what would you do to not “let this happen”?

That is an insane amount of data. I’m trying to fathom what 82TB of text files looks like and I can’t.

2nd half in raw binary because I use Arch btw.

Ok cool. Apparently nobody likes being called out, do they. Welp, I accept your answer, and since you act in such good faith, I won’t be surprised to see a disclaimer from you on any post or comment that contains the name of a for profit company here on Lemmy because it’s likely shilling. They will feel your wrath!

Lol likewise.

I am talking to you in the best of faith I can have with someone that seems like they’re harassing people that in my opinion are just here providing good content. It seems ridiculous. I wanted to make my opinion known. I have no agenda I’m trying to push. I don’t work for kagi or google, or any other company that would benefit from something like this.

If this is going to devolve into a deposition on whether I’m talking to you in good faith or not, then I think we’re done. I’ll be on the lookout for any possible shilling.

I’m not ignoring it. It just seems disingenuous. To me, it comes off as, “hide the source if it comes from an entity that makes money, because someone may be accidentally advertised to. Reduce context in order to avoid supporting a profitable entity. Professianal journalism is bad because the journalists get paid via subscriptions or ads. Fuck them for wanting a career in journalism.”

I hate ads as much as the next guy but realistically, how are they going to support themselves. Should I not post The Guardian articles (hope I’m not shilling here) since they make money to pay their journalists?

Yes, I think we do have to accept that mentioning a company’s name can have the effect of keeping them in the public consciousness, but so long as they exist and provide services that we interact with, we are going to need to refer to them somehow.

I agree that actual shilling is bad, and is something I do not want to see here, but I just don’t understand or agree on your criteria for shilling apparently. At best, it could have possibly been shilling. But then by that same logic, it would apply to such an enormously broad range of conversation. Now we’re just walking talking shilling machines.

And then you want to call it out every single time? With no reasonable proof that they were intentionally shilling? I just think that’s going too far.

So by your logic, if I post information I found on Wikipedia and list it as a source, cool. But if I find information on Yahoo and list that as the source, then I’m shilling for capitalism and must be called out?

Back to my original comment, I just don’t see how it was intended as a promotion. It was supportive to the comment to add context to the information contained thereof. It was literally one word in a long comment. No hyperlink. On top of that, most people don’t even know what Kagi is and there was no discernable effort to introduce or promote it.

What about that makes you so sure that they’re being used by a corporation? Should they have just listed the source as “internet search engine”?

If they “shill” for a not for profit search engine will you call that out as well?

It was a joke, mate.

I briefly looked through user tal’s comment history, and found that they also italicized Google as a source of info in another comment. Does this mean they’re also shilling for Google? Imagine how pissed Kagi would be if they found out…

Ok man. I get it. Anything that costs money is bad. Let’s never speak the name of any for profit company or business as it may give them free advertising. Thank you for keeping us all safe.
