That scope will narrow as time passes.

Now it’s brown poor people. Soon it will be trans people. Maybe next brown rich people, or Muslims, or Socialists. Y’all know the poem.

They’ve already “declared” Antifa a terrorist group and fentanyl as a WMD, that’s all the justification previous republican presidents have needed for starting wars and civil terror campaigns.

I heard a lawyer argue something like this once in court, regarding the the fourth and fifth amendments:

These laws are not meant to protect the innocent, they are meant to protect criminals. The founding fathers who penned it were traitors and seditionists who fought a war against their own country. They wrote these laws so that guilty people would be able to avoid punishment if proper procedures aren’t followed, and certain rights aren’t upheld.

I’m not sure how much I agree with that, but it was definitely an interesting take.

Or a friends butt. Get permission first though

I used to run a grow room in my basement, with about 4kw of equipment, so running my systems all hooked up through a 2kw PSU is actually a step back in cost. lol

Yes. We are all the same person. We are all one.

But it goes even deeper than that.

I got into self hosting a while back

EOL enterprise equipment can be very thrifty. But if you ever need something specialty that isn’t available in the second hand market, good luck.

Well at least you’re dishonest about it

We all know what you think you did

Attacking an independent judiciary is a clear, unequivocal sign of unbridled fascism.

Judges should (and up until now do) have wide discretion over how to run their courts.

Also, this nonsense is going to have a chilling effect on people being willing to legitimately go to court.

Sarcastically claiming to be the only user on Lemmy is a new one to me.

Not sure what tales you are reading. I didn’t even think Lemmy existed decades ago, much less as old as time. TIL

WTF? Are you insisting that this one user is the same person as the other user because they… Responded to a comment in a public forum? That’s almost as bad faith an argument as the rest of your nonsense.

Did you just make the factually wrong claim that non-voters wouldn’t have made a difference in the 2024 outcome if they voted?

Well that was a whole mess of wild and wacky assertions.

All the cool people use VLC

voting for democrats is the same as voting for republicans

Again, these options are only the same to you because you are in a very privileged position.

To people without your privelege, the difference is literally life and death.

You must be in a very privileged position to spout such rhetoric.

To many people, the difference is literally life and death

Some things are just super obvious that even if we can, we should not

I use it for coding advice sometimes, as an amateur hobbyist it’s really useful to point me in the right direction when facing problems I’m unfamiliar with. I often end up reinventing the proverbial wheel, just worse, but LLMs can help point out standards and best practices that I, as an outsider to the industry, am unaware of.

Movie recommendations is my biggest thing, personally.

And lots of other purposes. Just because a ton of people are misusing this tool and treating it like GAI doesn’t mean that it isn’t a useful tool. Even something as simple as proofreading a letter has massive utility for some people.
