Squiglet,

Yeah shouldn’t it have been the other way? AI for robots to take out the trash and cook and clean, and we’d be free for art and writing?

Squiglet,

Well it really isn’t addictive as opiates for example are. You wont become chemically dependant to it. The kind of addiction it causes is the same one that social media, TV, gaming, etc might cause. It becomes an habit and you get used to that. I know this is a simplification but this is how I see it.

Squiglet,

Non Violent Communication (NVC) might be effective in some of those situations. Basically reflecting back the needs behind the chosen words or way they are said.

Squiglet,

Nothing will work when the other side is acting in bad faith. They will just lie, use half truths, manipulate information and all kinds of tricks to get to where they want.

Squiglet,

There must be a desire on both sides to get to the truth. If one of the sides already believes he knows what is truth, then its pointless. It becomes a situation where that person’s objective is not to get to the bottom of things, but to convince you he/she is right. Unconsciously I do this sometimes with some of my beliefs, and its hard not to do it. It requires some level of maturity, not getting attached to beliefs, and rather adhere to an uncertainty principle.

Another situation is acting in bad faith. Someone who gives zero shits about truth and its only desire is to advance his position/power.

The 1st example it might still be possible to bring the other around by hard facts, sometimes. The 2nd its hopeless because there is no desire for truth.

Squiglet,

Was life at any point in our past free?

I don’t think so.

And if you go back to caveman times before money, we still paid with blood.

If anything life is moving into a situation where it might actually be free. But that does not mean freedom.

We were actually more free in caveman times.

Its a paradox. The more comfortable we get, the more safe we get, and the less we have to pay for this, in the end we will pay with less freedom.

Squiglet,

Someone hire this guy! Nobel material.

Squiglet,

Its not that simple. Its ok to apologize sometimes. But not so apologize every fucking time like I do for every minor slide. Also I can see the usefulness to just make the shot call instead of staying 1h writing that message/email. Others are ok too.

Squiglet,

Yeah you’re right. I’m in IT. Some stuff sometimes is better discussed via short call. But in government positions I can see you need to have it all on record sure.

Squiglet,

in general I find this to be true with most fruits, the uglier the better. Those pretty shiny apples are shit.

Squiglet,

Yep. Extra protein too

Squiglet,

I like to not give a shot and take my time. Sometimes it works and I’m relaxed. Other times I feel the pressure and I’m awkward. Some employes like to scan the items so fast that I hardly have time to pack them in the bag then they just stand there looking at me with this face while I clumsily finish packing and pay.

Squiglet,

Wow you’re generalizing way too much! An American that had the will to move out of the US is proof enough they think differently, probably. Give them a chance.

Squiglet,

When they bond with someone dont matter if he evil yo. BUT they will sense evil in others. Or not.

Squiglet,

Thats me btw. Changed role in my company and I got nothing to do now! Guess what Im doing?

Squiglet,

Putting my tinfoil hat: Would Meta be capable of having people in the Fediverse posting positively about Meta joining the Fediverse? Because anyone with 2 braincells and that has arrived here so far and gone through the trouble of understanding ± what this is about, set up an account etc, would understand by now the way the world works and why its such a bad idea to have Meta have a foot in the door here.

Squiglet,

This companies are all about profit and control and monopolies and give zero shits about you, quality content or anything else. Fuck them

Squiglet,

Its a mix: contrarians, Meta shills and NPCs.

@fediverse posting this from mastodon. It's amazing if this works!

Edit: it worked! Showed up in my Lemmy feed.

Squiglet,

How’d you do that?!

Squiglet,

So in mastodon you need to ping the /c/ with @ to post on it? Like @ufos or something?

Squiglet,

To post from Mastodont to lemmy you just need to use “@” followed by community name?

Squiglet,

Interesting that I can reply to you without “@”. Forgive my ignorance, I never used Twitter or Mastodon.

Squiglet,

wefwef.app is not bad. Liftoff is good too but after last realme phone update it crashes the phone.

Squiglet,

Sometimes I want to pee so bad that I dream I got up and went to pee. Then I realise it was just a dream and really have to go.

YSK: wefwef is a web app that look very similar to Apollo and works on both android and ios (lemmy.world)

Why YSK: looks very similar and functions like Apollo, if you’re used to Apollo that’s a great app for you, even if you do not, it’s still one of the best apps for lemmy You can install the web app here: wefwef.app/settings/install or just use it on your browser here wefwef.app

Squiglet,

Shit this is the best app so far! Hope they really release an app not just a page.

Squiglet,

I like it. Just wish this grey was a bit darker.

Squiglet,

I did. But still its not an app… Its a web page disguised as app.
