Social media isn’t itself bad, it’s the algorithms designed with help of psychologists to maximize addiction that are bad.

Technology@lemmy.world•YT-DLP is Being Treated as a Piracy Tool By The IFPIEnglish
6·6 days agoThink of the poor billionaires!
Piracy is morally right, we don’t owe them anything.
We see that copyright only matters to them if it is convenient, the latest example is training AI on copyrighted works without licenses. But there are many others.
It is also ironic that copyright was originally created to protect small authors from having a big corporation steal their creation and profit from it. Which is still happening. This is also the reason why originally copyright supposed to last 14 years. Because it was thought that 14 years was long enough time to have monopoly on idea
Only after corporations started bribing politicians they extended it to such ridiculous times and completely changed what copyright really was.

Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit is killing RSS feeds and ending public API access because of AI botsEnglish
31·7 days agoI think what there users who mostly post and users that mostly comment (I belong to the later). Lemmy could try to bootstrap some of those communities (note: to not make it to specific) by just reposting the same posts that are posted in Reddit and see if that could increase activity.

Technology@lemmy.world•Federal bill would force VPN providers, ISPs, and DNS services to block foreign piracy sitesEnglish
1·10 days agoExactly, this is to implement mechanism to block political sites that the state doesn’t approve. Please contact your representatives.

Technology@lemmy.world•Federal bill would force VPN providers, ISPs, and DNS services to block foreign piracy sitesEnglish
1·10 days agoThis is the same party that are all for unregulated AI use and no consequences for breaking copyright to train it.
This bill’s goal is to provide a standardized mechanism to filter sites then start blocking sites that state doesn’t approve.
It’s same as the other “think of the children” bills of the party that is protecting pedophiles.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Counter-Strike Co-Creator Says Gabe Newell Got So Obsessed With Mongolian Throat Singing at Valve HQ That Staff Started Closing Their Office Doors to Escape the NoiseEnglish
3·11 days agoI am pretty sure it was sarcasm, but it is crazy to realize how even things like this would be different if we had government that actually followed its laws.
Trump invested a lot in AI companies and removed all obstacles and made sure that regulators look the other way, creating this craze.
Now, once this collapses they will use our tax money to bail them out. It is fucking lose-lose situation for us no matter what happens.

memes@lemmy.world•Never let it connect, btw... no matter how nicely it asks.
1·11 days agoOh, wow. Though I wonder if it is regional or maybe it only works when you connect from hotel’s IP I just tried it and YouTube didn’t ask me for anything (I was not logged in either). I also use uBlock, which I suppose could potentially block that, depending how the block is implemented.
BTW: the videos I found on YouTube didn’t work with my TV, I truck duck duck go (also did not need to prove who I am) and first page had a working combo.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google Has Removed Manifest V2 Extensions From the Chrome Web Store, Including uBlock OriginEnglish
1·11 days agoInteresting. Maybe it is some bug with network interruption during specific stage of loading the page?
I’m also starting to question myself if I experience it and just do it automatically and not realizing it. Need to pay more attention.
Thanks.
Also thanks on deciphering what I meant. Stupid swipe keyboard. Saves a lot of time, but also makes a lot of mistakes.
LOL, that’s a really bad place to put a reset button.
Keep in mind that even Epstein himself said in the emails that he met some bad people, but trump outranked then all.
How do they

Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•ICE agents fired just before probation ends and forced to repay signing bonus.English
24·14 days agoThis is exactly to motivate those thugs so they do everything that trump stays in power after 2029.
Not only they might need to pay 50,000 that they probably already spent, but might be also told that they will go to jail for doing what they were told to keep that 50k.
I wouldn’t be surprised that those fired ICE were fired, because they had issues with what they were told to do.

11·14 days agoIn this admin poor performance could also mean not being harsh enough.
There never was ask for competency, trump fires like for not being loyal enough.
I essentially wrote that I agree with both of you guys.
This is different than actual apathy.
My worry is that the hype was created by generative AI, so when they talk about AI I’m afraid they mean LLM.
Wouldn’t controlling traffic be a NP problem and we could have a hesitation algorithm to do it (ironically those algorithms we used to call AI).
I also would be surprised they already don’t have mechanisms to validate choices made by traffic controller. That probably be a polynomial difficulty problem.
I think the main reason why they want to introduce AI there is so they can fire traffic controllers as they are major headache for Republicans when they keep government hostage.
I think there’s distinction between: “I am completely ignoring politics, because I’m privileged so it doesn’t affect me or it does, but I’m dumb to realize it" vs “I am paying attention to politics, but I believe taking to you is a waste of my time".
This is why it is important to vote and vote in every election including special, local and primaries


Exactly, ban the addictive algorithms and the problem will fix itself and will be better because after completing 18 years you don’t magically become immune to it.
