However, the upside is that there are no bots, dark patterns, or manipulated feeds.
There’s a huge amount of incoming spam, much of it, I suspect posted by bots. I’ve also seen account posting ‘news’ from sites that are clearly AI generated
To be honest, it feels much more likely to see posts on the Fediverse with many upvotes, few or no comments
Yeh. I’m pretty comfortable with this broad mix.
Absolutely. Unless they’re actually evil. Which I’m sure they aren’t. But they could be.
You should definitely spend time trawling through Oxfam shops for books, if this annoys you.
Thanks for the smile this morning 🙂
Running your own VPN in that situation is a good use-case agreed - assuming you trust yourself :)
You’re hiding your traffic route from your mobile operator and giving it instead to your vpn company who swear they are honest
That sounds as if the register for .ar should be out of a job
Yes, that is mildly infuriating. Someone deliberately going to additional trouble to increase the a kind of microplastics in the environment and make it harder for the poor folks in the recycling plants.
Get over yourself
The casing is the ‘more’
If you read back through this thread, you’ll see that in no way shape of form have I defended the atrocities carried out by Israel. That doesn’t mean that Hamas’ actions on Oct 7 weren’t also an atrocity. “Yeh, but that was 5 months ago” doesn’t feel like suitable rebuttle. No you don’t use genocide as a response to attrocity, but that doesn’t mean the original massacre wasn’t a atrocity.
I think you should should avoid using “lol” in these kinds of discussions.
Fair point to the extent that Palestine isn’t a state, Hamas can never commit a war-crime. So that’s OK then.
You’re projecting here, I think. I’ve been pretty clear on my position. You haven’t said why you think the Oct 7 attack doesn’t constrain war crime by Hamas.
Yes. My claim wasn’t that Israel isn’t committing war crimes. It clearly is. Possibly genocide too. However, I’m of the opinion that the Hamas attack was a war crime too - hence parties
I hope that’s helpful
I await to see how you justify the apparently indiscriminate massacres of 1,139 people - 695 Israeli civilians (including 36 children), and 71 foreign nationals. Let’s set aside the possibility of rapes and sexual assault as they can’t be absolutely verified.
In what way do you believe they were proportional?
Parties. Pretty sure the Hamas October action constituted a war crime too
it uses AI to bypass it, way faster than any human can do it
Welp, that’s a fatal flaw
Just a quick reminder that Twitter was banning 10s of thousands of accounts of extremists that breached its terms of service, including a certain ex president of the US. It was imperfect, but ‘running rampant’ is a stretch
I wonder how many manufacturers can currently manage that.
