Good to read, and funny enough timeless.

I think it would have helped for the person who posted that to include context, but I would guess they were linking because it also talks about how Kagi isn’t privacy focused.

The linked post goes into detail about why the author views Kagi as not privacy oriented, and that in the author’s opinion Kagi is overly focused on AI. (And was originally started as an AI company)

My thought was that the video loading probably isn’t going to be nearly as fast as TikTok because of the money behind their servers and optimization.

You’re being rude for no reason

I think it’s a strange position to take that giving birth is like handling radioactive material.

What do you think about “altruistic surrogacy”, mentioned in the article? Presumably if someone is volunteering that avoids the exploitation angle?

Approaching from another angle, do you think sex work should be legal? It’s another area where exploitation and abuse are a concern. But if we expect someone can earn money using their body in one area (sex work, or even just physical labor) then why should it be illegal to earn money by carrying a baby to term? Exploitation should be made illegal, not the act itself.

Lastly, my understanding is that surrogacy is more often used when a woman is unable to carry the baby, than when a man is unable to impregnate.

I hear you that rich people are selfish and causing any number of problems. That said, I think your approach misses the suffering of many normal people who want to raise a child and would be unable to otherwise.

Even if this was an activity that someone thinks should be restricted, should it be punishable with jail time? I don’t think so. The law in Italy seems clearly designed to target LGBT people.

I think the cartoon is on point but the added title for this post is not.

Yes, the Democrats suck in any number of ways, including supporting genocide in Israel. But anyone who’s on lemmy is probably aware of that, and any argument they make about the Democrats is different (“we have to strategically vote to prevent an even worse party gaining control”, or something more insane about how the existence of Hamas justifies apartheid and genocide, etc)

I don’t know whether Gulen was good or bad, but I do remember thinking it was funny when Erdogan was denouncing him after the coup attempt and wouldn’t say his name, instead the release said something like “the Turkish people don’t take orders from Allentown” like it was a foreign capital.

I just switched to Reaper. This was a couple years ago so maybe it’s better now, I don’t know.

Lol spending hours and days is correct but for me it was spent on trying to get the signal from your interface to actually reach the program and then figure out why there’s so much latency.

Yeah that’s pretty dystopian. Something worse hasn’t been done with it probably just because many bad actors haven’t been aware its an option.

Very satisfying

Sovereign wealth fund baby, time to get Nordic

Brings a whole new meaning to “time not important, only life important”

I remember seeing some of this stuff when it came out and thinking “why are they doing this?” A bunch of it I never heard of, and a handful I wish had seen success (Firefox OS). Not sure how this counts as a hit piece, it didn’t seem mean spirited and definitely didn’t seem to be misrepresenting anything.

How do you look at mod logs? How am I supposed to know “they have a reputation?” I have no clue what you’re talking about, so for me it’s up for discussion, because my reaction is “what?” If you don’t care to explain that’s fine, but don’t expect every person who comes along to be read into the same stuff you are.

Look, maybe you’re right, but I’m supposed to just take your word for it? From a cursory look at their profile I’m not seeing examples of what you’re talking about.

Based on what?
