I didn’t addressed anything because the whole comment is a load of bullshit.

Fuck off with your Putin propaganda.

Some beggars do indeed see it as a job and make substantial money, that is just a fact. Doesn’t mean that there are not people in real desperate situations and needing any help they can get.

Gen Z are adolescents or young adults now. Gen Alpha are the little kids. We’re getting old.

More infrastructure for cars = even more cars on the road, as simple as that.

You want to fix a gridlocked city with awful traffic? You start taking lanes out and making them exclusive for public transport, and you build big sidewalks and a cycling lane. Now you can get where you want to go in 10 minutes using public transport or bike, or you can sat in traffic for an hour - magically, you’ll see traffic getting better and less cars on the road.

It’s not as if this is some mistery - it has been done in many cities around the world and it works. The alternative is the american way, “just add one more lane”, and you guys live with the results.

In my country, besides right on red being illegal (having never been legal), traffic lights themselves are seen as a thing of the past and most of them were replaced with roundabouts decades ago.

You’re being downvoted, but that’s exactly what many europeans cities have been doing for many years now. When going into the city center by car is the worst option, people choose other ways to go.

Or maybe Israelis are the ones who are not facing reality. You keep a malnourished and abused big dog chained in your backyard, you’re going to get bitten sooner or later.

But why then are we even getting ads “not aimed at us”? Doesn’t a platform like youtube, which has access to basically all data on the google account, know us better than ourselves? Why all the tracking, only for us to be eternally bothered by stuff we’ll never buy? I’ve lost count of how many “atlas VPN” ads I’ve been bombarded with, and still no intention whatsoever of ever getting it.

Peace in which people need to have “protection rooms” in their houses and then end up slaughtered anyway is no peace, at all.

Ask yourself - why did everyone got to see photos of the Chinese spy balloon, but nothing of the other 3 objects that were subsequently shot down by F22’s? The military most surely has photos of those objects also, why haven’t they showed them?

What the whistleblowers have been saying is that the government has indisputable evidence in the form of photos, videos, sattelite images, radar tracks, and even recovered crafts and bodies. If you haven’t seen any of that evidence, it’s because they don’t want you to see it. Multiple congressmen have seen it in classified briefings and talked about it, the evidence you want does exist.

Except that he has delivered classified documents and evidence to authorities with the right clearances? Of course he can’t just publish classified documents, unless he wants to end up like Snowden. He is following the correct procedures for whistleblowers, and that’s why you get to see nothing but people with the right clearences do. Multiple congressmen have had classified briefings on the subject and they don’t think Grusch is lying.

The Tic tac was seen, with their eyes, by four different military pilots. It was also captured in multiple different sensor arrays, data that has been classified. The video is the only thing available because it was leaked, but there is other sensor data that corroborates both the video and the pilot’s testimony. We don’t have access to that data only because the military doesn’t want us to.

I’ve been using GPT4 for a few months now without complaints, it has saved me countless hours of trying to figure stuff out by myself.

Tried Bard, not impressed at all. I did 3 different tests, and got 3 awful results. The website itself looks like a cheap clone of chatGPT.

Never thought I would see Google being left behind by such a long margin.

I think I found a good solution: I created 3 accounts in 3 different instances. In one instance, I only subscribe to serious stuff like worldnews and technology and things like that. In another account, I subscribe only to memes. Both these accounts have NSFW disabled. The third account is the NFSW one.

At least in the Liftoff app, it’s trivial to change between accounts - so I basically have 3 separate feeds, with the added benefit that if any one of the instances is down I can still use Lemmy and see what’s going on in the “All” tab in any of the instances.
