A lot of people have made it their main income. Whether you or I think that’s good or not is irrelevent, but it does mean hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of Americans will lose their jobs as a result of this.

America does not care about truth. Worse, it actively discourages truth.

Lying is accepted. Making up facts that suit your narrative and shouting down anyone who disagrees gets you rewarded with the highest position of state.

We, the rest of the world, are just watching you guys in horror.

My TikTok feed is full of content that I find interesting and educational, from creators who work hard to make something valuable.

Exactly as I’ve found it too. My feed has a lot of old mine explores, vehicle repair, walking and similar ‘educational’ content. I’ve learned a lot of stuff - and I’m probably older than the demographic is perceived. The algorithm was extremely quick to start showing me the stuff I like - far, far better than any of the other apps.

I’m not American, but much of the content I see is made by Americans, so if this ban happens it will change what I see quite dramatically.

OP asked a question in an extremely toxic and biased way, well done for answering it reasonably.

That’s good to hear, but honestly, I’m amazed he’s still alive.

If they don’t have an online presence and neither do their peers, how would they be cyber bullied?

Fun fact, I was called by my bullies on my parents landline and bullied when I was a kid in the 1980s.

Bullies are gonna bully - the method varies but never the motive.

So I did - thanks for the correction, edited.

I… did not know that. Thanks, TIL!

Absolutely, but when you do need it, it’s brilliant.

Sorry, I should have explained that. it’s command | yes yes|command - Eg, yes|apt-get update (Not a great example since apt-get has -y, but sometimes that fails when prompting for new keys to accept)

Edit: I got it backwards, thanks @lengau@midwest.social for the correction.

yes

The most positive command you’ll ever use.

Run it normally and it just spams ‘y’ from the keyboard. But when one of the commands above is piped to it, then it will respond with ‘y’. Not every command has a true -y to automate acceptance of prompts and that’s what this is for.

And it would require the LLM owners to admit to stealing that content.

Enjoying Factory Town at the mo, a little chill automation game with a surprising level of complexity.

Factorio 2 is also fantastic if this is a genre you enjoy.

I think he had a pretty good run, tbh.

Definitely seeing some people doing mass downvotes. By that, I mean they disagree so much with a person’s post that they then downvote other, unrelated posts by the same person.

I often think the place would be better with no downvotes.

I agree. Hate to mention the R-place, but some of the subs there that only allow upvotes are a generally more positive place.

When your post is downvoted, you’re sometimes left wondering why, and question yourself. That can lead to less engagement. Same can happen for disagreements of course, but at least then it’s clear what the problem is.

You speak like they want to progress.
