  • It’s a bit of a chicken and the egg situation, I suppose, both encouraging and empowered by antisocial behavior. It’s hard enough to convince someone there’s a problem to begin with given the culture.

    I do wonder how any transition could be made under an inherently opposed system, but that’s also a key point of Marx with respect to revolution.









  • I love how all the comments have caveats. Maybe that’s just the Lemmy demographic.

    I’ve got a weird relationship with anime. Never really watched it as a kid, except for pokemon.

    Two of my best friends were weebs in high school, so I got into some there, went to some cons with them after graduation. I’d binge with college friends pretty regularly, but it’s never really been something I seek out on my own for some reason. I guess I’m a social watcher.

    My taste is odd for it, too. It’s mostly about gems in the rough and based on vibes. A lot just doesn’t hit, and I can’t always tell why some things do.








  • I’m actually sad that the state of AI deserves the hate it gets. Neural networks are so sick, just going through the example of detecting a diagonal on a 2x2 grid was like magic to me. And they made me second guess simulation theory for quite a while lmao

    Tangentially, blockchain was a similar phenomenon for me. Or at least trust networks. One idea was to just throw away Certificate Authorities. Basically federate all the things, and this was before we knew about the fediverse. It gets all the hate because of crypto, but it’s cool tech. The CA thing would probably lead to a bad place too, though.


  • I want to venture into some of the french speaking parts of lemmy, but I’m scared and it’s been waaaay too long lmao. And I definitely wish I could just “get” it like I get english (for the most part), but idk the hopes of that for a second language. Probably have to move to France lol

    Like even the way native speakers type and talk is nowhere near “proper” most of the time, but it’s the language. And I wish I could do that in french, ya know? Hey, maybe Quebec will do!

    Aaand I upset the native french speaker even more now.
