douglasg14b, to technology in Mozilla review of 25 car brands finds they're "a privacy nightmare"

Didn’t Tesla and others already try this (and will probably keep pushing it)?

Things like monthly subscriptions for various car features working like seat warmers.

douglasg14b, to reddit in Reddit faces content quality concerns after its Great Mod Purge

You just have bots that auto post to lemmy from reddit instead, and flood the feed with no intervention.

Which may actually be worse.

To be fair, the content quality on Lemmy has been about the same from what I’ve seen.

Bots all over the place, low-effort quips instead of discussions bubbling up, lots and LOTS of low-quality armchairing, personal attacks and flaming instead of actual discussion…etc

It was good for a month or so during the reddit 3rd party app purge, but quickly went downhill.

Apparently middle class Americans are now “rich twats”?

You mean LLM hallucinations?

Typical ML models are not hallucinating in the same manner.

douglasg14b, to news in Texas drunk drivers will now have to pay child support if they kill a parent, guardian
@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

Or any rich kid:

testified in court that the teen was a product of “affluenza” and was unable to link his actions with consequences because of his parents teaching him that wealth buys privilege

He only killed 4 people while drunk driving 乁⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠o⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠ㄏ

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethan_Couch

He got a slap on the wrist with rehabilitation. He was only actually convicted for 2 years because he habitually broke his probation.

In Texas!


This is just an example, not really here to make outrage out of it, old news, but a typical example that money usually softens any blow.

Looking at other posts by this user at the same time, is this just content spam. In places it’s not meant to be?

Hell no, criminal.

Sure, and then they either disappear you, or you have an “accident”. Or you just so happened to get beaten half to death in the restroom by a “random” act of violence.

Or anything equally as sinister, but to your finances, possessions, loved ones, or life.

douglasg14b, to news in Nebraska governor signs order narrowly defining sex as that assigned at birth
@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

ITT: Everyone conflating sex for gender…

It’s actually quite important. Your sex are what your chromosomes are, your gender is what you identify as.

Your sex doesn’t change, your gender does.

That’s literally the definition of it.

This is important especially for medical purposes, medication, surgery, emergency care…etc all has variations based on your sex, because different sexes are predisposed to different classes of problems and interactions. This also applies to REPORTING, reporting that a medication affects someone born female different than someone born male is an extremely important distinction.

Incorrect reporting literally costs lives.

It should to be standardized, just like everything else that has significant consequences on well being.

Politics are ruining what should be completed apolitical…


And it looks like lemmy is just Reddit again, except at least on Reddit you can find an informed opinion before the bottom of the thread. This thread is completely devoid of critical thinking…

@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

There’s no logic?

Just because you’re ignorant of the difference between sex and gender are doesn’t mean there isn’t logic…

Sex is very important for the single biggest thing that affects all of our lives, healthcare. Standardizing it literally saves lives.
