5·23 days agoYou are right, I am wrong. I am deleting my comment. Even if I was right this should still be patched ASAP regardless of what the exploit was.

I didn’t realize I was also replying to you over and over. I also understand that you are purposely missing the point. So I’ll leave it at that.
Sure, you get to pick with you wallet and go with the causes that are meaningful to you.
Personally I do not buy products that are made by Nestle or Proctor & Gamble. Because of this sometimes the other option for shampoo is then going to be a Unilever product. Great - don’t really like them either but don’t like them less than I don’t like Proctor & Gamble and I still need shampoo.
Sometimes to support a small business that doesn’t use AI posters I might not just have to pay more than I would at Walmart or Target. They might have gotten the supplies for their homemade soap on Amazon and and the only way I can pay is thru their Shopify point of sale system and then they emailed me a special offer via Mailchimp and then followed up with on email set up in Microsoft 365. And then at the start of every year, they used Turbo Tax to file taxes. Did I pick the lesser evil?
You get to pick the hill that you die on, but what I am saying is even if they don’t use AI - they still use bookkeeping software, they still file taxes, they still order supplies, they have an email, website and someplace they store documents.
So AI can be your hill that is fine, but you are still picking the lesser evil in other ways. As you said, “I guess if you don’t see your money directly go to OpenAI, it helps you sleep at night better. Out of sight, out of mind, as they say.”
Black and white opinions are fine on the internet but they don’t work very well in real life. You have to have nuance and make educated choices.
If the the small business doesn’t use AI, they sure as hell still are using Intuit for bookkeeping or Sysco for supplies or Microsoft for email. You can’t get any from indirectly supporting the mega corps. But you can minimize your impact by making smart choices, like picking the lesser evil sometimes.
Either you support small business directly and large corporations indirectly or you just support large corporations directly or you walk out in to the middle of the woods, withdraw from society, and homestead. There is not way to participate in today’s society without indirectly supporting corporations.
Sure, feel free to go in to every small shop and argue with them why they should not use AI. But supporting a multiple small shops that use AI for posters is better than giving all your money to Walmart.
This statement is the correct option.
Supporting a small business with an AI Poster is much better than supporting a big corporation.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Explodes on Reporter: 'You Haven't Asked Me One F-cking Positive Question'
28·1 month agoLet me guess - it was a woman.
I can’t tell because of the paywall, I will look for another source and edit this comment if I am wrong.
EDIT: I stand corrected
“You haven’t asked me one f—ing positive question,” the president told Time senior political correspondent Eric Cortellessa and editor-in-chief Sam Jacobs toward the end of the 75-minute interview conducted on Monday, Sept. 28. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”
here is the non paywalled article I read: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/trump-drops-f-bomb-while-211548648.html
I do not think AI can feel pain at all, these are mimicking suffering, not experiencing it. But I do think that the act of cruelty toward things knowing that it will make them convincingly replicate suffering says more about the person doing it than the machine.

politics @lemmy.world•Brendan Carr was a member of a rogue Alcoholics Anonymous group some labeled a ‘cult’
4·2 months agoIts not a controversial take, lots of us in the sober community don’t mesh with AA. I would never bash another persons path to sobriety, but the way they look at people who get sober working the steps vs people who chose other paths doesn’t sit great with me. I also don’t like the direction AA steers people to feel helplessness around addiction and giving your recovery to a “higher power”. But like I said - what works for some may not work for others, and I would never stop anyone from finding and walking the right path to recovery from them, as I have for myself.
If you see this and you are looking to experience sobriety and you are not feeling like AA is for you, there is lots of options out there like, Allen Carr’s Easyway, SMART recovery and Recovery Dharma just to name a few. But also please if you are struggling, feel free to DM me. I am always happy to talk.

52·2 months agoMen can be called a witch, sure, but it is not a gender neutral term. That is like saying “bro” is gender neutral. Sure anyone can be called bro, but that doesn’t make it a term that is not inherently tied to being masculine and male.
