Not the ultra patriots, they think other people’s kids are dieing to keep us safe from … Communism? Socialism? Something like that?

Bro, Trump doesn’t know shit about anything. Xi and Biden though know very well.

A social app for creatives, Cara grew from 40k to 650k users in a week because artists are fed up with Meta’s AI policies | TechCrunch (techcrunch.com)

Artists have finally had enough with Meta’s predatory AI policies, but Meta’s loss is Cara’s gain. An artist-run, anti-AI social platform, Cara has grown from 40,000 to 650,000 users within the last week, catapulting it to the top of the App Store charts....

Isthisreddit ,

Meta is just going to scrub all the Cara content into their AI system anyway. They have no fear because there are no real consequences

Isthisreddit ,

Man I miss the real Solaris. Fuck Oracle. At least IRIX never turned to shit

Isthisreddit ,

Nothing wrong with how it was done back then, I still do the same today

Isthisreddit ,

What about xmms? It was basically a winamp clone, I used to use that on my Linux boxes 20+ years ago

Isthisreddit ,

I refuse to pay for a subscription where I don’t own the music. CD’s, records, tapes - I still do it. I do need to start ripping mp3’s off YouTube more though - just a matter of time before shit starts disappearing

Isthisreddit ,

I swear you lemmiers are disappointing me. No one posting source for this lady and her boobs that shutdown a trans-atlantic portal?

If this were reddit, someone might have posted source of this daring lady.

I’m will to bet 4chan has all her leaked OF stuff posted already

Isthisreddit ,

My lemmgga! This is her! www.instagram.com/avalouiise?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA=…

Isthisreddit ,

Get off your high horse - I’m covered in women and I still love seeing boobs (in person, digital, analog, in my dreams…)

NSNTT -never say no to tits

Isthisreddit ,

First, link some sources of how China/CCP is using TikTok in anyway different that Facebook to get data on its users, specifically the comparison to malware. I don’t think OP is overreacting and I do think this is a slippery slope (some entity outside US jurisdiction owns a successful app - this is clearly a message to all other companies and startups outside US jurisdiction that they will meet the same fate if their idea becomes too successful). And yes, I’m sure you will “but but CCP” here, and I will say show me proof TikTok is doing something nefarious (that’s any different than what current platforms are doing - all I’ve ever heard is fear mongering that China “could” do something something etc blah blah)

Isthisreddit ,

I’d say you missed the part where a medical emergency/family emergency derailed even his well thought-out and organized plans.

I can’t tell you how many of us would have broken through our financial challenges had it not been shit happening unexpectedly

Isthisreddit ,

Not sure what your point is? Are you defending him for having a gun?

Isthisreddit ,

Yeah I think there is a bit of a disconnect with gun people. Some people are purely about self defense, some people are just genuine enthusiasts, and then there is the group of people who like to pretend they are part of the first two groups but really seem to have a lust for blood - be it fear (someone rings the door bell, or mistakenly drives down the driveway), perceived persecution, political ideology or just downright racist shit.

Antigun people seem to think everyone who likes guns is part of the last crazy group. It’s a bit hard to really tell who is who sometimes, but it’s definitely impossible to keep the guns out of the crazies hands.

Isthisreddit ,

Even at 5 to 7 ( and to teenage years) there are stretching exercises that can be done to loosen the foreskin and completely make the surgery unnecessary (and yes there are rare cases where that doesn’t help and surgery is the last resort). I would still say you didn’t have consent at 5 or 6. Sorry to hear you got mutilated

Isthisreddit ,

Full agreement. My heart is with OP, but it’s a sad fact of life on this planet that peace without violence or threat of massive violence just is not usually possible.

The truth is there are fucked up people out there, and worse there are the real parasites that seem to love licking the boots of horrible people (staring at Trump and his ass lickers).

Honestly one just has to look at nature - everything from the bacteria to the plants to the birds and mammals are in a constant fight to the death over their next meal or territory - us primates have not been able to escape it, and I don’t think we will (staring at water scarcity, food scarcity, upcoming energy crisis, upcoming climate change crisis, etc etc). Sprinkle a little bit of population explosion into the mix, along with wealth disparity - It’s just gonna get fucking worse going forward I fear

Isthisreddit ,

Sure, military industrial complex is probably the phrase you are looking for. I have no solution other than we tried our best in the US with having a civilian leader of the military, just it was impossible to foresee how much money would corrupt the entire political spectrum. All I can tell you is it’s established every society (no matter how big or small) is going to have to have some sort of defense - otherwise they will get pillaged sooner or later.

Problem is people with armies usually want to start conquests eventually… No one has figured out how to stop this through history other than having a bigger and better army

Isthisreddit ,

Last time this made the rounds, it was said she didn’t know the dildo was there, a friend put it there as a prank. It was also said she deleted all her social media and whatnot afterwards too. I don’t have source and admit I can be totally off

Isthisreddit ,

Let’s hope so

Isthisreddit ,

“for more money than I need” - that’s the real trick, employers aren’t exactly looking to give people more money than they need, it’s sort of the exact opposite typically

Isthisreddit ,

I’d say your doing better than many if you have surplus money! But to your point, I do agree slaving away all day to make someone else rich sucks

Isthisreddit ,

CNN was never lefty anyway.

Isthisreddit ,

Are you forgetting their conservative personalities like S.E.Cup, Lou Dobbs, etc?

Isthisreddit ,

Only problem is these lapsus$ kids were Giant, GIANT fucking assholes - taunting people in slack, fucking with employees, deleting shit just for laughs, etc - they were trolls with real maliciousness. The kind of shit 4chan would be really proud of. I’m not saying lock the guy up for life though, but they were all absolutely horrible and the damage they did was really stupid (for example they would ransomware someone’s data, then not decrypt it after the ransom was paid - even other criminal cyber gangs didn’t like them lol). They are probably the worst lulz group in recent memory

Isthisreddit ,

Having been studying what this guy and his group were doing, I doubt he is capable of doing anything for the good of society. This guy was a major asshole

Isthisreddit ,

2 things - security is very hard, and these companies are not the prison keepers. The kid himself must really be pissing everyone off around him and digging his own hole. Plenty of examples of cyber criminals in the prison system, but the biggest asshole seems to somehow have gotten himself locked up indefinitely

Isthisreddit ,

Good thing all the meaty nuclear stuff is airgapped and runs on floppies 🤣

Isthisreddit ,

I call bullshit - Let’s see a few examples of liberals/democrats getting their faces eaten by policies they support.

“Oh noes, this free college is hurting me” “Oh noes, all this free healthcare, my wallet is too fat”

Just to be obvious here, show me what laws liberals have actually been able to pass just how they championed for, and show me the face eating. I’m waiting.

Inb4 something about an immigrantl/minority/female committing a crime (cause liberals are so pro crime)

Isthisreddit ,

It would be bad for everyone. Not just in military casualties - from my shit analysis it would bring the world to a halt with chip manufacturing, all the good in the western world are made in China and Asia. Just thinking about what I know makes my head hurt

Isthisreddit ,

You are not taking into account china can lock down shipping from it’s neighborhood of SE Asia and India, and last I looked into it, Taiwan produced a staggering number of chips compared to every other chip producer combined - last I checked TSMC was still producing over 90% of the worlds chips (and I checked a few weeks ago)

Isthisreddit ,

Yeah, exactly. Plenty of women lining up to fuck these assholes too for some strange reason (well I do know the reason, they figure these laws don’t apply to them, etc. Inb4 law that binds quote)

Isthisreddit ,

Bro, why you lumping apple in with musk?

Seriously, apple does a spectacular job at user privacy and security, probably second to none.

Isthisreddit ,

Why do they have movies on planes? Are we not all pilots on a plane too? Never saw someone with kids in a car 🤣

Isthisreddit ,

Let’s be real here, google and every other company sells you out to their advertisers instantly and even double dip and triple dip on your info wherever they can. Apple doesn’t and they take their security seriously. Feds are always crying about how hard it is to break into iphones, telcos are complaining how apple protects it’s users (because telcos have an interest in monetizing those apple users), and the payouts for finding security vulnerabilities for apple products are very high.

Google and apple are absolutely on different ends of the spectrum of user privacy and security

Isthisreddit ,

True - show me proof Apple monetizes it’s users, then we can continue this discussion

Isthisreddit ,

I will totally agree with you it all does come down to money, but I feel Apple/Tim Cook is still principled in this regard - he has made a stand that the customer is not the product, and the investors/share holders appear to respect this boundary so far. All that is needed is a shithead CEO to come in and squeeze every cent, which at that point might very well be to monetize users like Google. Anything can change tomorrow.

Btw I’m a hobbyist security researcher, and the more I study Apple/iOS/MacOS, the more impressed I am. I don’t actually have any apple devices, but I’m really starting to consider it

Anker is a cheap knockoff brand?

Isthisreddit ,

It’s worth pointing out the cracks in a service everyone uses - some of those cracks have been there for a long time and Amazon has been doing a poor job combating it - if they even are. Amazon seems to make knockoffs themselves of best selling items, but that’s another topic.

To your point though, depends what you buy - when I was looking for really good headphones a few years ago, there were warnings on review sites about ordering Sony brand headphones and getting fakes. Apparently there were also sites dedicated to help identify fake headphones bought from Amazon (Sony MDR-7506). One would be correct to say counterfeits were around since before Amazon, but you wouldn’t expect to get a counterfeit if you pay full price from a brand name store - which is the new problem.

Also buying SD cards, specialized batteries, etc has been a big problem on Amazon for years, and Amazon doesn’t seem able to really address it (inb4 someone says they have made it worse)

Isthisreddit ,

It’s people like you that make everything suck. Fucking “Race to the bottom” cheerleaders

Isthisreddit ,

If your buying swords off Amazon, you dun already goofed

Isthisreddit ,

Let me guess, your someone who makes well north of $19/hr telling the plebs to be happy they have cake?

Isthisreddit ,

The problem in all this for me, is that examples like Jobs are pointed to as examples of why this should be done (your entire post basically), and then we have examples like Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos who basically couldn’t deliver the technology and kept the “lie” going.

How does one know they can eventually deliver? In your post, you basically assume the problem is solvable with capital. With some promised tech (like Theranos), at what point does “there is a necessary need to gauge the publics interest in a product to evaluate if capital needs to be invested in this space” turn into fraud if the product turns out to be unattainable? (Think cancer cures, limb regeneration, etc)

Isthisreddit ,

Russia still has a lot of meat for the grinder, it’s like Russian white walkers

Isthisreddit ,

Even today I was catching shit from rightwingers about vaccines and general public safety (ie masks and staying home if you feel sick).

It’s so fucking frustrating, them and their pseudo science and “health hacks the libs don’t want you to know - like drink a cup of water with a lemon to cure a viral infection” crap.

I don’t wish illiness and ruin on anyone, but I sure as fuck won’t forget when the GoFundMe’s start showing up again

Isthisreddit ,

Tell me you don’t know shit about professional video production without telling me you don’t know shit about professional video production.

He clearly cared about his data, don’t equate this man to the people who don’t really think about it and don’t actually back their stuff up (and come crying to everyone when their 10 year old disk dies)

People like to say to use the 3-2-1 backup strategy, which is really good advice, but it does NOT scale, trust me. I guarantee you I have more disposable income than this journalist (I assume that because journalists make shit money), and when I looked into a 3-2-1 solution with my meager 60TB of data, the cost starts to become astronomical (and frankly unaffordable) for individuals.

A Spanish agency became so sick of models and influencers that they created their own with AI — and she’s raking in up to $11,000 a month (fortune.com)

Isthisreddit ,

I hope your sitting… It’s too late and it’s about to get much much worse

Isthisreddit ,

Michael Burry (guy from the big short) has been doing the same. We all know climate change is going to fuck us, we all know we are headed towards serious water shortages, etc - these guys also know and have money to position themselves - for what final gameplan I don’t know, but at least with Gates his recent history has shown a care for the greater good for humanity at least. Can’t say the same for other billionaires.

I know Bills history pretty well, I just see a difference between him now and how he was a ruthless businessman in his prior life. Maybe he has me fooled, but I don’t really see it other than people’s conspiracy theory stuff. Guys like Elon are another story though
