Well… I AM probably a dick, so…

Vietnamese: The absolute bonkers way they combine a turbocapitalistic hustle culture with slow living / enjoying life

Of course it’s the simplest reading: lemmy.ML is a weird instance with rather weird users, filtering THAT out (and some more) will be a benefit for the Fediverse as it prevents new users from being too much weirdet out

Well, whatever… its just another reason why it’s best to self-host your git services…

And?

Sounds reasonable to filter out the weirdest parts of Lemmy…

Oh this would be a bliss…

The money bubble? Will correct itself soon

The Terminator thing? Is bullshit - humans are already very good at terminating each-other

The catastrophic climate effects? - In relation to other factors like meat consumption auiet neglitabile

We don’t make cars giant mechanical humans you sit atop of

But this would be cool indeed…

Real hackers social-engineered their way into high security systems decades before the first blue haired femboy nerd proudly announced “Btw i am usin Arch!”

“Punish one, educate hundreds” (Mao i guess?)

Throw the book against a couple of cases where encrypted messaging is involved and tell the public “We don’t know what they wrote… COULD BE $DISGUSTING_CONTENT…”

Funnily, it’s not THAT new of an idea:

The thing with Copilot is… it’s pretty useless. I mean, i am pro AI, i use Mistral daily for various tasks and toyed with others like ChatGPT and Grok, but Copilot is surely the least capable of the big models.

The thing is: At least in many German circles there is this weird focus on intersectionality, you CAN NOT be left if you are advocating for a stricter immigration / asylum regulation - you will be labeled a Nazi / Fascist or something along the lines.

In 2015 i was very well aboard the “Refugees welcome” train and really thought that the influx of those people would benefit the German society and create a more diverse and open culture. After getting to know some of those asylum seekers, working with some of them and trying to help others to find their way around the German bureaucracy i quickly discovered that, while there are some genuine nice people among them, most hold worldviews that would even an alt-right nationalist nutjob be too conservative. I genuinely witnessed attempts at fraud at an astronomical scale and an absolute disregard for the societal norms. Oh, and there were two attempts to rob me at knifepoint.

Let me just state that i am now in favor of much stricter asylum / immigration laws and i vocally advocate for sending people home who abuse the system and / or going criminal.

Well, 20 years ago i was really, really on the left. I mean, i have read “Das Kapital”, i visited political talks, was a member in “Die Linke” (a very left leaning party in Germany) and often participated in protests.

Over the years while having increased contact to asylum seekers / migrants during the time after 2015 and after getting the opportunity to get to know many of them (i volunteered to help in some projects) i noticed my political views moving step by step more to the right.

I think that is the modern use of the word “Nazi”, best translated with “i don’t like them”

I don’t think you need a targeted campaign for that… give some of the lunatics extremists left leaning lemmy folks only the slightest hint that some service may not pass the purity testing and they will jump on it like a fly on a big pile of shit.

Laaaazy, and boring

Because many (most?) Lemmy users prefer to ignore that - if you look too close - most stuff they use was created by people that they would absolutely hate in person.

In my mind the ideal product maintainer for an Lemmy approved product has to be part of the LBTQ+ community, has to be some people of color, atheist, vegan and must subscribe to the EXACT same flavour of leftism the individual Lemmy user has sold his soul to.
