MAGA: Trump kindapping Maduro was justified because he was acting like a dictator and was a net negative to the people of Venezuela!

MAGA after another world leader Kindaps Trump for doing the same thing: 😮

Sure. Take it as a privilege that you live in a safe area then. My grandma for example grew up in a monarchy where I find it completely justifiable that she and her family all carried weapons to fend off the government, invaders, etc. If you don’t have a functioning police and democracy in your State, guns are often your best way at protecting your family and the defensless against injustice. Maybe if her husband had a gun, he wouldn’t have been killed by the police. My grandma’s brother still carries a sword that’s hidden in his cane lol.

I live in the US which is safe for 99+% of people so your average Joe owning a gun would almost always do more harm then good here, so I’ve never considered buying a gun. Well, at least assuming ICE doesn’t raid my city. Then I might buy a gun and open carry to defend my fellow Americans against ICE terrorists.

Subscription based? Why would something like this even have internet connectivity in the first place, let alone a subscription?

I remember the “ban calculators” back in the day. “Kids won’t be able to learn math if the calculator does all the calculations for them!”

The solution to almost anything disruptive is regulation, not a ban. Use AI in times when it can be a leaning tool, and re-design school to be resilient to AI when it would not enhance learning. Have more open discussions in class for a start instead of handing kids a sheet of homework that can be done by AI when the kid gets home.

Why not use codeberg.org?

I think guns make sense if you live in the wilderness and need to protect yourself from bears

Lemmy algorithm is based as hell though since purely shows you what is popular since it is not from a profit-driven source. Big tech closed source algorithms are designed from profit incentives because of capitalism. When people are talking about “The algorithm”, they usually mean the latter. There’s nothing wrong with getting your news from Lemmy.

Well, Reddit is useful. I used it before I was 16 for sure. There are useful subreddits like r/SAT.

No IoT is a win for me! I might buy it just for the fact that I can save notes and reminders locally on my phone. Just waiting to see if the app or a compatible one will be on F-droid…

That’s definitely going to be a solved problem very soon with RAG LLMs. I have a friend who works in LLM research and it’s crazy how much progress they make so quickly. Their cutting edge stuff he shows me makes GPT-5 look like a toddler.

They’ve already lost my trust. GrapheneOS or LineageOS are the only safe bets now.
