  • We had Trump and the world did not end for you. If you live in the USA that makes you one of the privileged. I know many whose world did end. Good for you that you were not affected. But have empathy for those who where.

    We had Biden and much harm reduction was done. The downward slope was lessened. Imagine if Trump got a 4th Supreme Court justice! Imagine if Biden was not there to undo the explicitly harmful policies that hurt less privileged people. Biden winning increased in a notable and serious way those who are the least privileged.

    It may be true that the American quality of life has gone down. But voting 3rd party only makes it go down faster. If you just don’t care go for it. But the mathematics of FPTP systems mean that voting 3rd party only hurts your interests.

    Biden did not act with empathy when he gave supplies to Israel. But Trump will act with glee and encouragement when he would give supplies to Israel.

    I encourage everyone to vote with empathy and think of the least privileged when voting everywhere.











  • Although I do see that that bot has a very slight right wing bias I like it. It prevents the normalization of the use of literal propaganda outlets as news sources.

    I have a suggestion that might be a good compromise.

    The bot only comments on posts that are from less factual news sources or are from extreme ends of the spectrum.

    On a post from the AP the bot would just not comment.

    On a post from Alex Jones or RT the bot would post a warning.

    That way there is less “spam”, but people are made aware when misinformation or propaganda is being pushed.

    Also with such a system smaller biasses are less relevant and therefore become less important.



  • It’s a waste of everyone’s time for sure. It’s just good business sense to make your customers happy though.

    As for typing speed perhaps ya lol. You could be faster. But I think the best approach here is using high quality locally run LLMs that don’t produce slop. For me I can count on one hand how many times I’ve had to correct things in the past month. It’s a mater of understanding how LLMs work and fine tuning. (Emphasis on the fine tuning)
