They can’t read

Your second “it’s” should be “its”. Only mentioning this because of the stone throwing and the glass houses

Hopping in here to clarify for OP that these aren’t AI. They’re just spam bots. Their scripts are pre-generated and may at most contain a vague reference to specifics of the video. They are not unique to CBS videos in any way. Many YouTube channels curate spam out of their comments but that process is time-consuming and/or leads to accidental censorship of unproblematic comments.

Not giving both sides of an argument your platform to opine on if one of the sides is plainly bigoted and/or anti-scientific

I’m skinny but it’s because of IBS

Yes, although a lot of current pop culture stuff is so vapid, commercialized, and unstimulating that I could not care less about it.

I’d like a good place to keep up with and search for local events, follow local businesses, and discuss hobbies and lesser known series but without being beholden to a corrupt billionaire who owns the social medium and without rewarding bigotry and mis/dis/malinformation with advertising revenue. I’ve found a couple of Discord servers that only partially fill some of these niches. Some of these problems can be resolved by growing Lemmy communities around certain topics, but I don’t think most social media/marketing managers would publicize on media with relatively few eyeballs.

Does anybody have a plug-in or a web function that can, for example, transfer a company’s Facebook page’s post history offsite? Also looking for a good live feed of events in an area? (I tried Eventbrite once but I got scammed with the refund denied)

I’ve been thinking today about how the mainstream means of mass communication and organization have been taken by corporations and grifters who manipulate them to algorithmically reward ignorance and bigotry, and how these social functions need to be seized back for effective and lasting progress to be made. Education is next on the chopping block.

Yeah, rules, empathy, logic, and precedent. That’ll stop them

I wouldn’t do it. Consciousness is like the worst thing I’ve experienced ever.

Also, this prompt might be better suited for [email protected]

Probably would make more financial sense to Disney to just wait until it becomes public domain

This LPT doesn’t violate the community rule against illegal advice because in this purely hypothetical scenario the law means nothing

 

Old symbol:

Somebody on a Lego-based Discord server was trying to include this symbol in their MOC instructions, but Stud.io for some reason doesn’t have that as a feature. Image search results were limited as well, so I acquired the best resolution images of the new and old symbols that I could find and LukeSkydragon on the Discord whipped up these clean transparent png versions. To add these symbols to your MOC instructions on Stud.io, save the images from this post to your computer, open up Instruction Maker Mode, go to Page Design, click the button that says +Insert, click on Image, and select the images.
