Any proof you can offer on this, except for your hunch?

Now if she'd just leave the personal jet in it's hangar.

Definitely not a fan of elites flying in their private jets to whatever luxury location.

But can you imagine Taylor Swift flying in a public airplane? She'd be harassed endlessly, even in first class.

Some people are just too well known, unfortunately.

Anyone burning down schools to "protect the children" should take a very hard look at themselves. I hope they catch the people responsible quickly.

I do fear that this will cause some more islamophobia here (and we already have plenty). The problem isn't religion per se, it's misinformation. People believe that this program would cause teachers to teach kids how to masturbate, which is obviously ridiculous.

Unfortunately, fake news is more common in certain groups. One of those groups is muslims. It's the same reason why vaccination rates are much lower among them.

It's a problem that runs very deeply and is a consequence of a failed integration approach.

Reddit is among the most popular social media worldwide, with an estimated 55.79 million daily active users and 1.660 billion monthly active users in 2023.

Yeah, a drop in the bucket. Even considering lurkers and bots.

But that's okay. The goal is to have a nice, active enough community outside of reddit. Reddit can keep on existing. I would argue not having everyone move here, or somewhere else, is good to keep the interaction healthy. Let alone the software and servers that couldn't handle it.

Would this not be considered as "providing comfort to insurrectionists", as described in the 14th amendment. Even just promising pardoning them.

So even if they argue he supposedly wasn't involved in it, it would still disqualify him from office.

He said that he would have dreams of drops of blood (a symbol of his village deity, the goddess Namagiri Thayar), followed by complex mathematical equations. Even with the help of his formally-trained friend GH Hardy, he was only able to prove a small fraction of his insights.

Exactly. Some of the best subreddits were so great because they had heavy moderation.

Probably the best example of this is askhistorians. Made a comment that was on topic but had no sources? Removed! With a clear (and public) comment of why it was removed. It was clearly stated in their rules that this was required, so it was absolutely justified.

We have no idea what these comments were and whether they were in violation of the sub's rules.

Let's shit on reddit for the actual things that are going wrong. This seems more like getting outraged over a picture of your ex with another guy/girl/whatever gender their interested in in the background.

Someone called me out on this yesterday. On a thread about rblind, so deservedly so. I had no idea this is how it works though. Thanks!

You just want to absolve yourself of that moral responsibility.

That's exactly what you are doing. You're focusing on this one issue, retreating yourself from the binary decision because neither options stands for what you (or I, or morality) would prefer. Completely ignoring that withdrawing from the choice plays into the hand of the infinitely worse candidate. So by not choosing, you do nothing to stop the situation in Gaza, but might actually make things a lot worse for people all over.

You can virtue signal that you did not compromise on your believes, while actually helping your country make a worse place.

I just googled "trans protection laws by biden" and got quite some hits explaining what he did so far, including revoking some of Trump's anti-trans laws.

Not sure what you're referring to with the 33 states, but it seems to imply an issue where the federal government has no say in.

Could he be doing more for trans rights, and LGBTQ rights in general? For sure. But perfect is the enemy of the good. Especially considering what another Trump presidency would mean.

Most likely, this would make the Republicans vote for whoever their candidate is, rather than a minority Democrat winner.

Not saying I disagree with you per se. I had the same thought when reading this news.

The current system was probably designed to promote compromise, even across party lines. But we all know how well that's working out these days.

Didn't this [homophobic slur] have classified material in his house that he wasn't authorized to have in his possession?

Somehow this quote is referring to Pence, not Trump...

Downvotes weren't a thing in Reddit is Fun? I definitely remember downvoting things using RIF right until the end.

To me, I will downvote things that do not deserve any visibility. Such as things that are factually wrong, things that don't contribute, overplayed jokes, hateful posts,...

It's not 3% of users, it's 3% of traffic. This could be caused by 0.1% of power users leaving.

It's definitely not artificial general intelligence, but it's for sure AI.

None of the criteria you mentioned are needed for it be labeled as AI. Definition from Oxford Libraries:

the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.

It definitely fits in this category. It is being used in ways that previously, customer support or a domain expert was needed to talk to. Yes, it makes mistakes, but so do humans. And even if talking to a human would still be better, it's still a useful AI tool, even if it's not flawless yet.
