Yeah, there's legitimate complains against GAI and most of all the companies trying to lead it. But having a community where the only point of view accepted has to be direct and absolute hatred including towards people trying to look at adequate and ethical usage of the technology is just plainly bad and stupid just like any other social bubble.

And I could rebute to that, that if someone is interested enough to check it with AI then they were likely to try and check it anyway without AI, maybe it would take longer, it would be harder to find... But they'd be the intended audience that now are redirected elsewhere.

To quote myself:

It's a really complex topic that no simple straight answer would solve.

We could rebute again and again and again, and get nowhere because either option is hard to discuss as it is simply impossible to give proper data to prove anything. And worse, when defending the use of AI for it can lead to being told you are allowing it in the first place and that's not even telling how many people still believe that AI needs real sample images to produce those (whether the algorithm is trained or not on CP is irrelevant on this particular point, as it is not needed to be created)

Hmm.. In my mostest most humblest of opinions, no, you didn't get carried away. You explained it in just the right amount. Maybe even stopped too soon, would have loved the version for Mac.

I'm not the kind to hate on nuclear power itself, but let's not assume it's perfect either. There are good reasons against nuclear power, its just not the usual reasons raised by people.

The cost and time effort needed for building one plant is one drawback.

The fact that you can't say "let's turn off the nuclear reactor now that we have enough renewables and later today we start it again when the sunlight is over". It's a terrible energy source to supply for extra demand needed without perfect planning.

Nowadays, nuclear is not so worth it in general, not because of fearmongering about the dangers (an old plant badly upkept is a danger, independent of what energy source you use, but specially for nuclear plants). Ideally a combination of different renewables would be best, with some energy storage to be used as backup, plus proper sharing of the resources between different places. There's always sun somewhere, there's always wind somewhere, ...

So after half a century of being alive you have just decided there's nothing else to learn and nothing you could be mistaken about. No reason to talk things out and hear others' opinions. Because you are the oldest wisest human being ever.

I (not the person you answered to) do believe I am right on the opinions I hold, but I'm not certain of it. So I read, and I discourse, and I consider other points of view, in case my opinions could have been mistaken. That won't mean I will suddenly consider "hey maybe the Nazis were right killing all those people they hated". There will be some aspects where I won't budge in my opinion, but most things are nuanced and harder to draw a line for than the nazi example.

But then again, why would what I say matter, all arguments opposed to you are garbage and wrong.

As a counterpart, the fact that it is so easy and simple to get those AI images, compared to the risk and extra effort of doing it for real, could make the actual child abuse become less common and less profitable for mafias and assholes in general. It's a really complex topic that no simple straight answer would solve.

Normalising it would be horrible and should be avoided, but there will always be some amount of people looking for that content. I rather have them using AI to create it than having to go searching for real content. Persecuting the AI content is not only very inefficient, it might also be harmful as the only other content left would be the real one that is much harder to catch those who make it.

Me too, the problem is how many have to suffer him until that happens. And I dont mean just having to read his every damn comment.

Really? Ah wow, never thought it would be that hard... That's sarcasm by the way, since we are stating the obvious. Also you forgot to mention, one does nothing against FElon and the other ends FElon.

I anyway hate the idea of inciting violence (but sometimes you just need to get it out) and can't really wrap my head at how many people are in comments in Lemmy out for blood (well, I kind of understand, the situation is bleak to say the least, the issue is how many think violence is a good solution for real, there's a discussion for violent revolution, but violence alone is useless, but I digress), I'd rather he rots in a cell somewhere and all his money is taken away to do something useful with, he'd probably hate that much more than anything else. Same with Amazon Dickzos... Well that's lame, couldn't come up with a good name for him yet. Bezos anyway.

But anyway, if the first lady trump is still free and worse, in a position of power in the government, after all he has done (literal treason, rape, ...), I'm not holding my breath for the nazi asshole to get to prison.

Why so many people are cheerfully cheering for burning teslas owned by random people when it seems it would be easier to burn this fucking nazi asshole? Just get rid of the source of the problem...

 

Hi all, in the slow process of degoogling one of the key points for me would be to remove the pucks I have been using for a few years for the WiFi mesh network at home. I know of a few alternatives but not a single one that respects my privacy (not gonna get rid of google just to switch to amazon), that allows me control of the network locally without accessing some backend of some company or anything. I don't quite need access from outside the network if that makes it easier to find some option.

Any ideas? I'm also slowly building the blocks needed at home for self hosting a bunch of stuff, and those would need to have access to the outside network of course. Maybe that needs to be considered too?
