Lemmy.

Traditional media is heavily regulated in the UAE, but these days everyone — not just journalists — has been put on notice.

After the war erupted, authorities announced that people who shared misinformation or even something that “results in inciting panic among people” could be prosecuted. Only officially verified information is safe to post.

This tough, arbitrary edict effectively means the country’s government gets to decide what is and is not true.

It’s easy to over-provision permissions. Just look at all the wide open S3 buckets people report on every few months.

I can see people not realizing the LLM autocomplete was an LLM. But not the prompting.

And even then, that’s some fancy ass autocomplete if it’s not LLM powered…

So many things are ruined when friction is completely removed.

• Woke: precision
• Conservative: fat finger

Thank you! It’s divination in my opinion.

Speed test is whatever. I’m always suspicious that they have deals with certain ISPs to make the numbers look better than they are. It would be easy to do, and then just roll out the true cliche about “not every website or server will or can max out your connection.” Etc.

It’s frustrating that they act like we have privacy right now. The whole situation is typical absurd human behavior.

Why can’t SKG do those things? They all seem… oh. ROSS IS AN AMERICAN. I see.

What political affiliations would be used against them if they were just part of SKG?

Of course that’s criminal.

Make it Post it notes, free standing signs, whatever. I mentioned signs too, for a reason.

So I should be able to go down to my local GameStop and write the same sorts of things on game boxes and put up signs saying the same things?

That’s speech too.

Just because this is digital, it does not give a pass IMO. These are private spaces still. They are not administered by the public.

Pray for the homeland, I guess.

Aww you’re no fun. Stop with the nuance.

Often times people are incorrect about specifics, but correct or valid in the point they were attempting to make.

It’s obnoxious to deal with analytical or biased people who can never look past the surface level.

I noticed a little over a decade ago that there was an uptick in discourse over conspiracy theories and a muddying of the waters around them. And it became clear to me that there was an upside for those participating in secret dealings to foment more and more conspiracy talk etc. The more noise, the better.

I feel like the Epstein files release confirms the vibe I got. The right really does want everyone stupid and confused. 4chan, Reddit, and later Joe Rogan and X are all tools in this effort.

MMO games + Kickstarters don’t seem like a good idea. They never work out.

I wouldn’t be surprised that it was just the few things I use that didn’t care. YouTube-dl was one of them. I wouldn’t be surprised if I was living a lie, and zsh enforced what should have been normal across the board.

I’m not that aware or savvy about the structure of the terminal and what a shell even is. 😅
