True. The instant response that exists now is only because this is a pilot program and they want to prove that it works. Once it’s normalized they will lay off most of the rider support and fuck you if you have to wait on the line.

No, but then the same is true of taxis and Ubers. They all have some kind of recording equipment in them for ensuring safety and cover in case someone claims something.

I lieu of that, I’d say the mods should just go limp. Stop moderating content and let posters run wild. The company needs to realize just how much their business model depends on all that unpaid labor.

I just never gave my TV access to the Internet and use my home theater PC to watch stuff. Never seen a need for more.

Remember when we used to say, “Don’t put your name on the internet?” And now it’s everywhere?

Mine isn’t, go ahead and look it up. You won’t find my name anywhere in the internet.

Here it is encrypted so only you can read it: >!John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!<

I had been wondering why everybody was so angry at them for implementing anti-cheat software. I didn’t realize that they were locking out Linux users. That’s a bunch of bullshit.

I wish I had more upvotes to give this comment cause you are so on the money.

I’ve got another 5 or 6 years with my FX-8150.

It was disabled even in accessibility mode in the last major update on my last phone (Pixel 8) I haven’t tried it on the Pixel 9 but I doubt I’ll have better luck.

The valuation is based on the expectation of the company to make massive profits. And if you think investor money is not profit for the people running Open AI, you’re crazy. We could only hope that they run out of money and go out of business. But that’ll never happen now with the amount of faith these corporations are putting in “AI” research.

It’s in the first bloody paragraph. 😮‍💨

OpenAI is begging the British Parliament to allow it to use copyrighted works because it’s supposedly “impossible” for the company to train its artificial intelligence models — and continue growing its multi-billion-dollar business — without them.

And if you follow the link the title of the article says it all:

#OpenAI is set to see its valuation at $80 billion—making it the third most valuable startup in the world

I don’t know about Apple but Google used to make a little tone that let you know that it was listening to you. It doesn’t do that anymore. Now it just shows a little green light which, if you’re not looking directly at the phone you won’t see.

And it was pretty frequent when Google’s voice Assistant would randomly activate and I’d hear that little tone and I would have to turn it off so it wouldn’t sit there listening to my conversation. But now you don’t have that option, now if you miss that little light everything you say is recorded.

Fuck these services. I have permanently disabled both my phones 's Google Assistant and the Nest speaker I bought. Yes, it’s less convenient. But the fact of the matter is that these companies aren’t interested in making a service that is useful to you they just want to collect data on everything you do so they can sell it. And to be clear, I was fine with them collecting data on stuff that I actively participated in, it’s the price I was willing to pay. But for them to pull this shady ass shit of removing the audible notification is just garbage.

Interestingly Israel has violated all three of these on hundreds of occasions in Gaza.

Wrong

Oh no you have turned the tables on me! 😱

My words are meaningless now!!!

Here’s an idea, why don’t you save your argument for one of the myriad posts that have popped up discussing this very subject of whether or not cats can eat vegan or not and whether or not that is abuse.

But here and now within this post is a discussion over whether or not mods acted recklessly and whether or not there is a need for better guidelines on what is and isn’t allowed. Which were discussed in the post that you apparently didn’t read.

At no point did the author of this post open up the floor to discuss whether or not veganism is good, bad, or ugly for cats.

The comments in here are unbelievable. This post was about the systemic moderation issues that lead to the incident, the team’s response to it, and how to deal with such a problems in the future.

Half the comments: CATS CAN’T EAT VEGAN

The other half: CATS CAN TOO EAT VEGAN

There are people here who need to go back to fucking reddit.

Yeah that’s what we call corporate welfare. What exactly did that 5 billion buy anybody? All it did was make that fucking asshole richer.

Yeah I wonder how many billions of dollars in incentives did Texas Republicans promise that douchebag in order to get him to move to their State. And how many Texans are going to have to foot that bill.

My point is just that Lemmy is no longer made up of just Linux nerds. Over the course of the last couple of years the user base has diversified quite a bit.
