You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

TIL that Android phone users are a new racial category.

Ugh, and during the start of Pride month too…. Why can’t people just leave these women and their sheep alone.

Without thinking about the validity of the ICCs argument for it, I wonder if part of their concern is whether or not having an antagonist like the ICC doesn’t shore up potentially eroding domestic support from Gantz and his allies.

I wonder how hard it will be to make this all… DISAPPEAR…

Bah, like the Romulans could do any better.

Arctic and Mlem for iOS.

Arctic is my primary, it was the first that I know of to include admin tools, the single developer is super accessible and on top of for resolving bugs and does a good job at supporting markdown both in the editor and the viewer.

Mlem is my backup if I need to access 2 different spots on the Lemmy-verse. It has a great viewer and interface but is missing a markdown editor.

For when you really want to set something on fire, but it’s just too far away.

I don’t inderstand, my phone knows that when I type stormloght, what I really mean is Stormlowght instead. (This happened yesterday)

Auto carrot is amazing.

You can eat anything, once.

Fiskars the blade company also makes Gerber products. The knives, not the Baby food.

This very reason is why I cut off both thumbs. Can’t force me to unlock my phone with my thumb print now. Checkmate, cops.

I can still beat an AI at the 100 meter dash though. Suck on that AI.

/Also, I can climb stairs, I bet Chat GPT can’t do that!!

I suspect the “source” they are referring to is Bari Weiss’s “The Free Press” with is all in on “anti-woke” as an agenda, and those that use that derogatorily are pretty much all right-wing sites for pushing an agenda.

And yep, if you read his arguments, they are all basically rehashed right-wing complaints. He misquotes the Muller report for Bill Bar’s misleading summary, overstates the reliability of the Laptop, and gets bogged down in the lab leak theory without doing the sort of authentication that one would expect from someone in the media trying to show how unbiased they are vs everyone else. It’s all right wing pushed talking points.

I really liked Dan Kelly’s response, it bares the partisan bent of the claims and failure of Berliner to put authenticity of claims before partisanship.

This one retreads a lot of the same water but has enough other stuff to justify reading it too: https://carriekaufman.substack.com/p/nprs-uri-berliner-exposes-how-liberal?triedRedirect=true

I love SwiftOnSecurity.

We can remember it for you wholesale.

I knew I was going to get every downvote I got. He’s got an Elon Musk-like cult of personality in some tech spheres and even implying that he’s not 100% right will get dogpiled by white knights.

I had the same experience as you and there were at least a couple opportunities where I had close acquaintances that actually knew more about topics that were more outside of his wheelhouse who confirmed that he was just regurgitating things that were common misconceptions or “close, but not quite”-type inaccuracies but doing it as though he possessed absolute authority. I’ve even seen others try to correct him on those in the past when they knew more and his responses were not the way one responds when you’re actually interested in fact over the art of the diatribe.

I don’t have anything real negative against him and he’s definitely done quite a few things that end result in a positive improvement, but I’m also thinking he’d probably benefit from a bit more humility.

He always strikes me as the kind of person that confuses his moderately deep knowledge of a limited topic set with the type of thinking that makes him an over-confident expert on a much larger variety of topics. Like when economists start making declarations about climate change science.
