Learning how to murder people on a systematic scale has become trendy again. /s

It was certainly the last one that I voluntarily used.

I hope no-one dies and people stop killing each other. Life is too precious for such primitive dumb shit.

Contributing is such a wonderful way to give back to the community. And isn’t it heartwarming to know that a contribution you have made, regardless how small, is then being integrated into something that is used by dozens, hundreds, maybe even thousands of people?

That’s a little way to leave a mark on this planet, and possibly improve the life of people.

It’s nice how AI datacenters step by step swallow virtually all available hardware resources to provide digital services to users who won’t be able to use those services due to the lack of available hardware.

if anything the defamation was coming from emopunker, declaring people upvoting the thread […] as ‘the same person’

Fair point.

I am on the fence about the ‘snark comm’ ordeal. I think such communities are – to some degree – meaningful for a critical discourse. Imo, one should be allowed to point out and criticise users, communities, whole instances.

Then again, this should not make someone a target for harassment.

From my pov, it’s a question of balancing interests here: civilised criticism is important and should be allowed. Especially in such public spaces. Denying this due to a hazard of making them a target for people who see this as a ‘call to action’ would suffocate such discussions completely. So I’d address the harassers and sanction them, instead of people who merely point things out they find suspicious, as in this case.

So unless Emopunker directly incited the harassment or did it themselves, I’d lean towards: “yeah, somewhat uncool to throw such accusations in the room without further proof, but that doesn’t make them the culprit”.

Basing this on a temporal chain of events alone is weak. I’ll give you, that there might be a connection: names listed -> harassment started.

That does not mean that Emopunker is responsible though. Could have been another user. Could have been you for all I know. Could also have happened for other reasons. And, there is still the possibility that it might have no connection to this at all.

You’ll need to provide some stronger evidence, otherwise I’ll take this as baseless accusations and, possibly, a defamation attempt.

Feel free to deliver, especially since you seem to be observing this. I’d like to know whether an admin on the instance I am using is harassing people.

I followed your link. It shows a comment you made, yet with another link to a comment by Emopunker@feddit.org. And you claim that they harass people. The comment by Emopunker shows a screenshot where three usernames are listed that share similarities. Emopunker says that they have the suspicion that the shown users are the same person with alt accounts.

In conclusion: I wonder whether you forgot to attach some context, because based on this alone I don’t see anything that support your claims.

Google’s chief legal officer clarified that he is not opposed to digital sovereignty, but recommended making use of the “best technologies in the world.”

At least they recommended not using Google products. My technological life has also significantly improved since I have ditched this ad serving company.

Nope. It just started another arms race.

Thank you for your point of view. Since I have shared the article a lot of tibes myself, it’s nice to take another perspective on it.

I haven’t dived very deep into the research, but from what I have gathered the research did focus on beverages. Whether the alcohol content of a alcohol-free beer also falls into this category and therefore alcohol content in apples must be considered as well, was not conclusive to me. Sure, if fruits reach alcohol levels of average alcoholic beverages I suppose it’s safe to label them as problematic as well. But until then I’d like to avoid reading too much into the research, until it has been clarified whether this really does apply to alcohol levels like in fruits as well.

The WHO did a meta analysis, which is how they came to their conclusion.

The title “No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health” is slightly misleading though, since they focused on typical alcoholic beverages. There is no statement about alcohol in fruits.

Bottom line:
Drinking even a little bit of <alcoholic beverage> safe? Likely no.
Eating <fruit that contain low amounts of alcohol>: unknown

To be fair, capitalism is inherently incompatible with advancements in robotics and AI. Doesn’t mean the technology is destroying the economics and society. The socio-economic system was already broken to begin with.

Lucky for them to be prominent and not coming from south of the mediterranean sea. Otherwise they would have drowned and nobody would care.

And today another finding in the series: “humans are stupid”.
