You and me both Boomer Doomer.

More vibe coded bullshit. Of course.

The fucking delicious irony.

And it’s kinda sorta pretend revenue from VCs and circular funding deals.

It’s a start.

Like all anti-corporate settlements, it is ridiculously favorable to the abuser.

If you’re an artist and you posted your art online it trained the algorithm.

These no talent ass clowns stole our shit. The only way this is ethical is if you took an open source model, trained it only on your own artwork, and are using that to produce new things. (But that requires SOME talent and not being a lazy piece of shit.)

Bummer. Looks like a cool idea art-wise judging by the gameplay trailer.

Too bad these fuckers are too lazy and untalented to do the work themselves.

Asking for proof? Should be a very easy thing to provide given how confident you are that, apparently, this is an epidemic among men.

Far be it from all of us to pretend we’re guilty just because you presume we are.

I’m sorry, but you’re being very unreasonable. I hope one day the men in your orbit stop quietly accepting that you say things like this.

Data.

Stats.

Compilation of actual, verified reports.

But, your response does answer my question, and you should know it’s not 2014 anymore. No matter how fashionable your algorithm has made you think that it is to smear men as a whole, the rest of the world has seen how ridiculous it is.

If you think you get to lump me or your male friends in with these people without being asked to prove it, you should maybe have enough respect for the men in your life that you esteem to actually hunt down some evidence before posting things like this.

Have a great day.

Yeah. :(

I remember fall of 2001 at the Mizzou/Texas game, sitting out the anthem in protest and being threatened by people around me. Every damn one of them was a-okay with this for two decades.

It is nice to see public sentiment finally turning against mass surveillance, though. We’ll see if it lasts more than one election cycle.

10000000%

Is there any actual data to support the claim you’re making, or are you taking a few viral videos and using them as a means to support your own implicit bias?

That’s what really sucks about this.

There’s no institutional backlash. (At least not yet. That could change.)

We’re depending on parents who park these little shits in front of screens and expect to be left alone while their kids are radicalized.

We’ve known this since 2014, when an actual whistleblower told the public that FB was experimenting on its users without their knowledge or consent, and the result of those experiments is why Meta is currently being sued.

legal privacy protections have been a joke since 9/11

Facts. One of the areas where Dems/Reps always agree is that your civil liberties are theirs to trample on at will.

Of course they didn’t indict him.

I was having ribs with this dude. Couldn’t have been him.

He’s not wrong. They pulled him aside without a warrant and gave him a choice with zero options: Surrender your phone data and give up your privacy, and in the current political climate they always find something that is hurtful to Donald’s tender feelings, or refuse and be detained.

I made a video on Samuel’s story a few weeks ago, if anyone out there hasn’t heard of it.

Whether or not you regularly clear your browser data.

Eh, not me.

I’d rather get a voice note than 15 texts.

That tracks.

The more I learn about American history the more frustrated I become with our species in general. Our country could be so much more livable now, but for a handful of vulgarly wealthy people who only ever cared about number going up at any cost.

And to make it worse I’m reading a biography of John D. Rockefeller, so I’m about to hate our species just a tiny bit more.
