The Internet is quite segregated sometimes. I have a friend who is an “influencer” and sometimes brags to me about another influencer they’ve met up with. I’m like,
“sorry I’ve never heard of them”
“but they’ve had X number of followers and were really big on YouTube!”
“…” 🤷♂️
Same, it counts my steps and it measures my runs/swims. It’s a Garmin. I don’t really have it configured for notifications or anything else.
US Senator apparently went there and was refused entry and everything.
Republican fanboys are calling it a political stunt.
It wouldn’t be anything if they didn’t fuck up to begin with.
I remember being in uni when George W got elected the first time. I recall my uni friends were saying there’s no point taxing the rich because they’ll always find another loop hole. I guess we should realize they’d never stop. They’re never like, “hmm that’s enough”.
You only say that because you don’t see what they’re doing behind the scenes.
For example, they’re putting lots of money into think tanks to dissuade the public from even talking about taxing the rich: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rQg24dralYY
Obama called out Fox News before, I remember something like all the other news organizations backed Fox News. They claimed an attack on any one of them was an attack of all of them or something.
Yeah but imagine if a black woman had done it. We’d need to question her abilities as a black woman and call it woke and stuff. /s
For coding, I treat it as an overly enthusiastic junior-mid.
It’s also great because I’m learning terraform and I just don’t want to look up the syntax. I just tell it to add something and it’ll do the lookup for me.
It gets it wrong sometimes which is where I need to do the lookup but it definitely has its uses.
No, those penguins have been taking advantage of US trade for too long!
There was article written by their former marketing director or something stating that the CPU, GPU and stuff are still sourced from China, and other places as well. They hide it from you. So like it’s an eye-watering price for old specs and doesn’t really deliver what it says it does.

I still don’t like saying how they’re both the same because I fundamentally don’t believe that to my core (ie if they had all three branches we wouldn’t be talking about all this current mayhem).
However, I think I understand your point and I agree with it.
So thanks again!
I loved the video. It’s very obviously taking the piss but I think this has been a sore spot to many Lemmy users that the humour isn’t gonna hit.
It’s got a little something for everyone
It wasn’t in this article but in another one here:
https://www.theregister.com/2025/04/09/court_scolds_ai_entrepreneur_avatar_testify/
The founder of an AI startup who attempted to use an artificially generated avatar to argue his case in court has been scolded by a judge for the stunt.
Dewald, who operates a startup called Pro Se Pro that aims to help unrepresented litigants navigate the US legal system without hiring lawyers, had planned to use an AI service called Tavus to create a realistic video avatar of himself to read his argument to the court.
I remember some saying that he’s using this as a stunt for AI company …
However,
Dewald downplayed the judge’s admonition not to use the court as a venue to promote his biz. “There was nothing there that was promoting any business that I have,” he said.
It could be that he just really believes in AI. As someone that uses AI for coding every day I’m amazed at his level of confidence in it.
Thanks for replying, I just recalled this:
Now we can say he failed but I can’t say that specific act is evil. Palestine on the other hand … ☠️
Like, I get your viewpoints and you guys think I’m trying to bury any negative viewpoints of the democratic party or that I’m brainwashed. Which is funny to me because I hate the establishment Dems. I just think posts saying both suck and attacking the Dems aren’t helpful because they currently have no power. The other party is causing a lot of damage and there seems to be no stopping them so kicking the feckless Dems when they’re down seems weird to me.
I also think the democratic party needs to be ousted by progressive candidates that have a good vision for the future. I’m not gonna lie though I don’t see it happening. The establishment Dems aren’t gonna bow down. Also, I see so many protests happening and although AOC and Bernie have made the news I don’t think I see the Dem leadership taking advantage of this and putting up a solid front either, like wtf is going on? I’m not sure it’s the coverage but it really seems like they’re lost.
That is the real crime here …
Embarassing rich people or losing profits. Their lives are what really matter, wouldn’t want them to be inconvenienced in any way.
You’re free to be wrong.
As are you.
Have a pleasant day! (no sarcasm)
I agree I think it’s fucking horrible and I think Chuck Schumer and everyone on any side of the political aisle that upheld this should be in a jail cell too.
Wow. it’s a real article: https://newrepublic.com/post/193725/donald-trump-israel-hostages-nazis-jewish-prisoners-love
