I’ve not been here long, but I’m curious how users who were present before the reddit drama feel about any potential changes to the content and tone of discussions.
That’d be a lack of sympathetic understanding. Kindly educate someone, peacefully correct them, relate to them and ask “how could they be so wrong?” Be genuine. Too often are people berated for a differing opinion over a matter of fact. It’s just a lack of awareness in nearly every case. People (usually) don’t want to be ignorant on purpose, they just are
“Left wing, right wing. We’re all under the same bird” so let’s fly together. People. Are. People. The only difference is experience over the course of life. Meet in the middle, agree to disagree, try to have an intellectual and thought provoking discussion with anybody. Deciding to blindly hate half of your country’s people is bot a good decision. It’s a blanket treatment. If you were treated a certain way by those you despise just for being who you are, I’m sure it isn’t fair. Dont be a hypocrite and do it back, assuming anything will be better. You’ll just drive the wedge that divides you from them deeper. The world is uncomfortable
I mean, people use dash-cams protect themselves in case of a car crash, so do you think people in the future would also use body-cams protect themselves in case of being involved in a fight?
It’s already the case in neighborhoods and apartment/townhome complexes, Amazon’s Ring. Can’t walk down the street without being recorded on both sides by at least 50% of front doors / driveways. Amazon who was recently caught allowing employees to view hundreds of women’s home camera feeds (even indoor cameras, since the average person doesn’t fully consider how much a single company can spy on you when there’s a camera/microphone reporting directly to their servers).
I think it’s possible for a self-hosted/maintained 360 degree camera to become frequently used. People in busy cities could definitely benefit from having the ability to record whoever walks up to possibly bother them. As long as this made-up product doesn’t connect to the internet, I imagine it would be practical and safe.
What if there happened to be an extremely determined individual who’s dream is to change “the human condition?” Sure it will be a losing battle in the beginning, but a battle fought doesn’t determine a war. Especially if it’s a war that’s been waged over our entire history. The market would also have to shift towards simple to deploy, self-hosted, free (as in freedom) open-source devices. Once everyone understands why a little effort can go a very long way, then I’m sure we can all actually change for better; for our future.
What if, over time, we focused on plug-and-play, free (freedom), open-source solutions? Take framework laptops as an example. There was a problem with laptops being difficult to self-service, so they developed a solution. Sure, not THE solution, but progress in the right direction means a lot. As long as we can recognize the faults in centralized services. (Spread relatable awareness), and care enough to support action which further develops decentralization.
Sooner or later, it’ll be borderline impossible to talk a stroll without being captured on a video somewhere. I wonder how disguises/masks might evolve to counteract. And if any scene occurs, you’d better bet there’ll be at least one phone camera pointed at it.
Cool. No one should care, because the face tissues are useless. Besides, breathing into the same mask all day, combined with oils off your face, as you constantly grab it with your fingers to readjust it, defeats the whole purpose. Then there’s the utterly useless cloth masks that people wear several times over. I mean, there’s zero studies to prove their effectiveness to begin with. But, society conforms itself because it’s “for your/other’s safety”
Correlation, not causation. Is my food poisoning orally contagious? A sick employee may care a lot less about the quality of food they’re preparing, causing more people to get sick from rotten food on average. There are too many variables to even consider in this.
Longtime Lemmy Users: aside from sheer size, do you feel like the site has changed since the influx of reddit refugees, and if so, how?

Do you think that in the future, body-cameras on people will become as common as dash-cameras on cars?
