I'm concerned this is more poignant in 10+ years than now as our lives increasingly depend on the algorithms favor.

Yup, and the only way out of that is Ranked Choice Voting.

Go volunteer for your local RCV group, California's is here: https://www.calrcv.org/

Approval Voting seems to just dilute your vote the more candidates you vote for. Candidates will tell people people to only place one vote. What a silly system.

It's better than D.A.R.E. which is what a lot of us got.

I, for one, welcome our new overlords.

We need this SO badly. So it probably won't pass.

Are the images clearly labeled, or are they trying to pass them off as reality? There's a clear difference.

The cost is around 95% of life on the planet. Don't stress, it's happened 4 times before!

Would you prefer them be weeping? No really I wonder which people like getting bad news from more, happy or sad people.

Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads (www.lowpass.cc)

Roku is exploring ways to show consumers ads on its TVs even when they are not using its streaming platform: The company has been looking into injecting ads into the video feeds of third-party devices connected to its TVs, according to a recent patent filing.  ...

Just because they patented it doesn't mean it will happen. Sony patented this evil idea.

A religion for AI might be humanities future either way. Just finished reading "Everything is Fucked" by Mark Manson - highly recommend and this subject is one of the last things he discusses.

You should have already read his book "The subtle art of not giving a fuck" just for your own sake.

He's a bit dramatic on the title which I don't care for. The first book he wrote is more accurately "deciding what to actually give a fuck about" but I guess that's not as catchy?

I'd argue it was a good place for FAST news. For a lot of major events you can find posts and videos from users before the media releases anything, which is kind of a first for humanity at least in terms of accessibility.

Now, if you're looking for ACCURATE news...

Same bullshit as you most likely: working too much and self medicating.

Lemmy doesn't auto vote for your own comment/post. We aren't that narcistic here. Every comment starts at 0.

I can see on Kbin who upvoted even, and you didn't upvote your comment.

Edit: I've learned it varies by your portal!

From now on when I think of Sisyphus I hear the version from Hades and am reminded of his positive attitude.

Zagreus: "Sisyphus, how can you stand it, being here like this? You always seem in such good spirits, though."

Sisyphus: "You push old Bouldy here sufficient times, and you might get a different outlook on things, too. With the Furies all preoccupied and with my running into you from time to time, I'm positively doing great lately. I like to take what pleasures I can get!"

But if you pop over to Reddit it's a lot of similar memes.

Seraph ,
@Seraph@kbin.social avatar

Ok sure, but where's the advanced anti scratch device?

100 layers just means more data lost to a single scratch.

Avatar was 13 years apart. Tell me other big gaps!

Good but a bit overpriced.

Then again most pasta is seriously overpriced.

@Seraph@kbin.social avatar

Hate to say I popped over to Reddit at one point this morning (because I need plant help) and was only half surprised to see the same memes as I did here.

I know what you mean, I'm more into division games than multipliers.

    Friendly reminder that there are only roughly 750 billionaires in the US. We CAN eat them.

    Because not being is a sub par alternative.

    Worse, if you try to minimize sleep to maximize your day then your body and mind suffer.

    Though there are some natural "short sleepers" that can get a full night in 5 hours. That's definitely not me!

    Nor have you heard their regrets about ever having lived!

    His real name is Rafael Cruz and I think it's time we start using it.

    The word "her" is in different text. Wonder what was there before!

    Couldn't get far enough, just used the thumbnail.

    Or tax them to hell like they did in the 50s I guess. But I prefer the eating thing.
