This is a bad bot using bad reasoning and it’s only going to hurt the state of discourse. You’re not countering dishonesty, you’re encouraging it.

tacosplease ,

Can you provide some examples? Is Media Bias problematic or just this bot and how so?

awesome_lowlander , (edited )

I’m just gonna drop this here as an example:

The Jerusalem Report (Owned by Jerusalem Post) and the Jerusalem Post

This biased as shit publication is declared by MBFC as VEEEERY slightly center-right. They make almost no mention of the fact that they cherry pick aspects of the Israel war to highlight, provide only the most favorable context imaginable, yadda yadda. By no stretch of the imagination would these publications be considered unbiased as sources, yet according to MBFC they’re near perfect.

Really? You’re really asking this question?

I’m gonna play your teacher - what reasons can YOU think of why a military would do this?

@ulkesh@lemmy.world avatar

Simple answer: it’s greed and a legal racket.

possiblylinux127 , to linux in linux as business/ company pc?

You probably will be told no. However, it never hurts to ask. I would go for bring your own device as that will allow you to set it up in a way that works for you.

I hate this and have already blocked the bot.

Comments are obscenely long, and I see no reason to trust your source.

@Rooki@lemmy.world avatar

Thats yours, we endoresed every to block it when you dont like it.

linkhidalgogato , to memes in I hate it when people just say that a meme is "a repost" and refuse to elaborate

repost downvoted

65gmexl3 OP ,
@65gmexl3@lemmy.world avatar

This is my weakness because i’m afraid to sound awkward or make mistakes which happens a lot

pelletbucket ,

I stopped caring and if people don’t like me they can deal with it

empireOfLove2 , (edited ) to piracy in Adobe stole my creative suite
@empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

SEND THIS TO LOUIS ROSSMANN. He absolutely will rake them a new one and companies tend to magically “fix” errors in their favor when people make a huge PR stink about it.

It will help bring Adobe down faster too, because unilaterally revoking previously purchased licenses no matter how old is a great way to lose all trust from your corporate customers.

Edit: also cs5 is universally pirated, this is now your legal perogative to pirate it to retain access to the copy you PAID FOR.

bizarroland ,

I will say that this is horribly fucked, nobody should have to burn through their 15 minutes of Fame in order to receive the basic goods and services that they have paid for.

ITGuyLevi ,

It feels even dirtier because OP bought a physical copy, that feels so much more like Adobe broke it at night and stole it.

Cant be a good date if you’re checking your work email in the middle of it

kautau , (edited )

When I’m off the clock I don’t see work emails or messages. My boss still has my cell number though. This card doesn’t at all say someone is checking their email, just says there is a critical production bug and someone was emailed about it

Wait wait don’t tell me

Lifecoach5000 ,

Well fine then! I’ll keep them to myself.

Okay… what’s the difference between a beautiful and highly produced radio program and a podcast?

@Crackhappy@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a good point.

Azzu , to nostupidquestions in I grew up in the era of Photoshop and people would post fake nudes. Why is it now a big deal that AI is doing it? Kinda like the Taylor Swift thing on twitter.

It’s only a big deal because of puritan society like in the US or UK or similar in the first place. There are societies where nudity is not a big deal anyway, so nude photos of someone are also no big deal.

Look at Germany for example. Lots of FKK (nude) areas. No one really bats an eye. Of course there nudity is also not perfectly normalized, especially in some circles. But still, not many are concerned about nude pictures of themselves.

Obviously AI makes more nude pictures faster than someone skilled at Photoshop. So if your society has a problem with nudity, there will be more problems than before.

But really, there shouldn’t be a problem anyway.

Don_alForno ,

Look at Germany for example. Lots of FKK (nude) areas. No one really bats an eye.

We still don’t appreciate our nudes posted online, fake or not.

Azzu ,

Of course there nudity is also not perfectly normalized, especially in some circles.

Also obviously because of privacy reasons people don’t like their pictures posted online, nude or not.

Etterra ,

They’re not even actual nudes - they’re fake. It seems to me to be no different than putting someone’s head on a Big Bird photo.

That said, nobody gets to decide what’s offensive to other people. Just do as they ask and don’t do the fake nudes. It’s not like there’s a shortage of porn done by willing adults.

Azzu , (edited )

I’m not saying people should do it. I’m just talking about a fundamental principle to keep yourself happy: to not be hurt by what other people are doing. In the end, you can’t control what other people will do. But you can control your reaction to what they do.

Of course, everyone is also allowed to disagree with this advice. I’m just sharing what works for me. If someone wants to feel bad/offended about someone making a fake nude of them, I don’t want to stop anyone doing that (and I can’t).
