Tom Cardy's music is some of my absolute favorites.

They are definitely making plans for the day that HitlerPig declares Martial Law, and suspends elections...

Unsubstantiated bullshit dreams like this keep real resistance from forming.

"Someone else will save me!"

No, they won't. There's no "competent cabal" just waiting to make their move and pretending that there is keeps you from forming or joining the resistance yourself.

No one is going to save you or the people you love, and the price of waiting for Superman is suffering and death.

The ever-accelerating demise of the American empire will remove their fingers from every political and economic pie in the world, creating a small chance that something even worse doesn't fill the gap.

Seeing the raw numbers is impactful and I would also like to see these figures as percentages of the whole since they're comparing different times with different populations.

A lot of the old shit was just left in a field to rot. Someone came along and said see all this shit over here anyone want it? No one did.

We're going to need some legitimate citations to back your claim about "a lot of the old shit" being left in fields that people passed by and didn't take for themselves.

People, myself included, aren't fond of lemmy.ml because it pretends to be a privacy-centric instance but it's actually run by people who defend any and every criticism of Russia and China under the guise of critiquing capitalism.

They commonly say that any bad news about China or Russia is western propaganda while everything from their state-run "news" platforms is gospel.

They're unable to say that two things are true at once, like capitalism is a pure shit system AND China and Russia are fucked for a million reasons specific to them.

People get banned from their server for saying that China is anything but a utopian dream.

And then, yes, people unfairly assume that you must be cool with all that because you're using their instance. If you're not married to the idea of staying there, I'd suggest deleting your account and using a different instance.

We use words to describe our thoughts and understanding. LLMs order words by following algorithms that predict what the user wants to hear. It doesn't understand the meaning or implications of the words it's returning.

It can tell you the definition of an apple, or how many people eat apples, or whatever apple data it was trained on, but it has no thoughts of it's own about apples.

That's the point that OOP was making. People confuse ordering words with understanding. It has no understanding about anything. It's a large language model - it's not capable of independent thought.
