“In the same way that everybody needs some degree of math, reading and writing, I think everybody needs a degree of AI literacy,” he said.

Also, Mark Kelly has accepted $554,054 from pro-Israel PACs, so I don’t think he’s a good spokesperson for the anti-war position.

They didn’t need to ‘turn it’ into anything; it was designed from the get go to be a nationwide tool for stalking and mass surveillance.

Agreement with differing ideas isn’t necessary, but willingness to tolerate difference is necessary if the Threadiverse is to grow beyond 40,000 MAU.

Given that we’re already at a disadvantage due to the network effect, as long as new users aren’t racist, homophobic, transphobic, fascist, or otherwise exclusionary, they shouldn’t be pushed out for having differing political beliefs to the group norm. Instances need not enforce rigid orthodoxy to a broad set of beliefs to avoid becoming a Nazi bar.

Beyond politics, many potential users would rather see non-political content in any case, something that is largely lacking compared to the broad availability of content on Reddit. Many users are unfortunately not willing to switch over without a greater proportion of such communities active here from the get-go. Even if such users join for different reasons than existing users, a greater MAU count would help reverse the user count hemorrhaging than has gradually occurred since the initial mass exodus from Reddit in 2023.

Hopefully the guy will be compensated for the wrongful arrest.

That said, the TikTok style of using word-by-word highlighted subtitles makes content seem like it’s produced for toddlers.

That means 200 officers taken off the capital’s streets, where they could have been tackling the crimes that matter most to Londoners.

Don’t waste law enforcement resources dismantling civil rights then.

and likely even the MAC addresses emitted by many of those vaccinated.

I’m against spying on device identifiers, but vaccinated individuals do not ‘emit’ MAC addresses.

The problem with many of the articles that discuss how the system is being ‘misused’ act as if the mass surveillance involved is otherwise entirely acceptable, so long as it’s used for its intended purpose.

Ultimately I think the Threadiverse would be well-served with user growth, even beyond a privacy-focused niche, but there should always be a baseline of quality to acceptable news sources, something that news portals obscure.

People probably use news portals like AOL for the convenience of finding articles from a variety of sources, but doing so also makes it harder for people to determine the source of that information or block content from certain outlets.

Better to link to the original article than AOL.

I’m sure in their minds they think they’re just ‘vessels’ for ‘divine intervention’.

While fast fashion is environmentally wasteful, Italy’s mafia problem stretches far beyond the actions of just the Chinese mafia.

When a reporter suggested Finland’s education success involved more than economic growth alone, ACT leader David Seymour interjected: “You’re making a big assumption there. You shouldn’t let that creep into your reporting.”

No, they’re just not reporting from a libertarian perspective.

Is it an ‘explosive’ filing if it’s obvious that the kind of people signing up to be ICE agents are racists?

Polls have repeatedly demonstrated that around a third of Americans support Trump’s policy positions on nearly everything; here’s a graph with multiple issues listed to demonstrate (source):

A third of the U.S. thinks that anyone to the left of the most conservative Democrat is a communist, while many centrists normalize fascism on a regular basis.

“Having no legitimate religious reason to refuse granting religious exemptions to the taking of abortion-derived vaccines, Catholic schools in Florida should comply with Florida law.”

The dishonesty of conflating stem cell research with vaccine research aside, assholes like this want countless people to die of preventable diseases in the name of not benefitting from a handful of abortions that would still be occurring.

The truth is ‘liberal and left’.
