100% we have 100s of similar studies now

It’s orange power which washed off with water

1, BS. 2, The history of change is full of people who pissed off a lot of other people. Change never happens from asking politely and being meek

Are you seriously really upset at coloured cornflour being spread over some rocks?

kaffiene ,

Get a grip

Orange cornflour

It’s not surivor bias. Unsuccessful protestors weren’t all killed. And no, we’re not fighting all the same issues: gay rights, woman’s rights, workers rights, racial equality have all made huge strides over the years and protests have led those changes. That’s the truth that you need to face. Read up on the civil rights movement for a good example, or emancipation for women.

If they can make a mod to make Astarian fuck off, I’m in!

The Jews have a lot of awful history. But right now it’s Israel who are comitting Genocide. That’s not “living in peace”

kaffiene ,

This is pure genocide apology. Even if it were true that the hostages were held by civilians, the 200+ Palestinians killed were not all holding the hostages. The 600+ injured were not holding the hostages. What a disgusting article. So because a few people “deserved it” we can massacre civilians. Fuck off

kaffiene ,

You don’t. There is no path the peace for Israel through genocide.

kaffiene ,

Let’s say you wiped out all the Palestinians. Do you believe that results in peace? Do you remember what motivated Osama Bin Laden? Do you think the rest of the Arab world would be at peace with Israel?

kaffiene ,

That’s a very one sided view of history. If you can’t see that occupied people have legitimate grievances then there’s just no point in talking.

Plenty of situations that “could never change” actually did. The past is filled with impossible situations consigned to the dustbin of history.

kaffiene ,

The only way out is diplomatic. They will not bomb their way to peace

kaffiene ,

Palestine was Arabic before the British (part of the Ottoman empire)

kaffiene ,

Yeah, sure - I know

kaffiene ,

Fuck people who make generalisations

kaffiene ,

I agree with the first part, not the second. All those black kids who end up in the military because of poverty are not all evil. But you’re right about the system so work to change that rather than damning a whole class of people.

kaffiene ,

Keto diets demonstrably work for some people.

kaffiene ,

Yeah and I think those diets have reasonable limited appeal, but they’re clearly not snake oil. They demonstrably do something

You don’t use much software, huh?

kaffiene ,

That wasn’t criticism, that was a rant

kaffiene ,

And yet thousands of people have used it constructively for years. They must ask be, like, super humans I guess

kaffiene ,

I use Krita a lot and I like it. I also use Gimp. Many people do. That fact that you don’t like it is not an argument against it

kaffiene ,

Yeah the wheels of change turn slowly for the GIMP =) I’m still a fan, thou

kaffiene ,

That’s fair - Krita is a more approachable piece of software in many ways

kaffiene ,

We really are

Alternatively: MSs AI plans and the negative reaction to them has reduced their value cf Apple

kaffiene ,

I’m 100% sure he can’t. Or at least, not from LLMs specifically. I’m not an expert so feel free to ignore my opinion but from what I’ve read, “hallucinations” are a feature of the way LLMs work.

kaffiene ,

LLMs aren’t even hallucinating thou. It’s a euphamistic term to make it’s limitations sound human like

kaffiene ,

No that’s not it at all. People know that they don’t know some things. LLMs do not.

kaffiene ,

People can mean different things. Intelligence can mean a calculator doing a sum, and it can mean the way humans talk to each other. AI can do some intelligent things without people agreeing that it’s intelligent in the latter sense.

kaffiene ,

Of course not

The Dutch have been working on this for ages : lightyear.one

210 Palestinians reportedly killed during Israeli hostage recovery operation (thehill.com)

The bodies of 109 Palestinians including 23 children and 11 women were taken to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, and spokesperson Khalil Degran told the Associated Press that more than 100 wounded also arrived to the hospital. In addition, he said the rest of the 210 Palestinians killed were taken to Al-Awda Hospital after the...

kaffiene ,

Historically the figures released by the Palestinian health system have been acknowledged as pretty accurate. From the Telegraph : “In previous rounds of fighting in the Strip, the total number of deaths reported by the Gazan authorities have been found to be broadly accurate, not differing significantly from estimates produced by the UN or IDF. There have, however, always been disputes over the civilian/combatant split.”

kaffiene ,

Minimising civilian casualties is literally their responsibility under international law

kaffiene ,

I see your point. I tend to believe the Palestinian figures simply because they have a history of being reasonably accurate with casualty numbers and the IDF has a history of lying or at least playing down casualties

kaffiene ,

Whichever noun you use to describe them is fine by me.

kaffiene ,

The post you were responding to was about the death of children. We are talking about casualties, not pastoral care

kaffiene ,

Not really. You’re responding to something I didn’t claim. But enjoy tilting at that strawman

kaffiene ,

Not trying to hate, just not understanding what point you were trying to make.

kaffiene ,

What part did you disagree with?

kaffiene ,

I see. I disagree. Hamas’s actions are utterly deplorable but also entirely expected. This is what oppressed people do. I also think you’re wrong that Hamas have done nothing for Palestinians. They’ve never had as much international support as they do now.

kaffiene ,

Given that Hamas wants a Palestinian state, I think that international support for that cause is crucial to them.

kaffiene ,

It is helping, yes. They are literally what they would be exchanging as part of the proposed current peace deal

kaffiene ,

I’m not answering for someone else’s arguments
