Next thing you know this will be the new expert witness pseudoscience.

davel, to privacy in Apple will require court order to give push notification data to law enforcement
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

Apple will now require a court order or search warrant to give push notification data to law enforcement in a shift from the previous practice of accepting a subpoena to hand over data.

A subpeana is a court order so that’s clear as mud.

If you don’t understand that anti-Zionism is antisemitic, then we’ll throw you in the hasbara gulag until you do, even though:

Libs need to understand that calling out the hypocrisies of Trump supporters does fuck-all. Not only do they do not care, they get off on triggering the libs in this way. They’re not the least bit interested in facts or consistency; they’re interested in getting their guy in office.

@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

“Choosing” is doing some heavy lifting here when gen-z ain’t got no money.

davel, to memes in that's how it works, right?

Apropos of nothing: posting LIB memes to !memes is risky business,
because meow-tankie might choose to engage with the meme in earnest.

I’m sorry but only pre-approved, whitewashed, milquetoast quotes from radicals our government assassinated are allowed.

During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it.

davel, to memes in "Crony Capitalism" is Libertarian cope
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

Progressive liberals like Bernie Sanders aren’t much different and only marginally better, critiquing “crony capitalism” / “neoliberal capitalism” / “uber-capitalism”, without directly challenging capitalism itself.

The first user I blocked was the AutoTL;DR bot. GTFO with machine summaries.

How to Use ChatGPT to Summarize an Article: ChatGPT tends to oversimplify things or even hallucinate sometimes, so fact-checking is essential.

Which means I’m discussing articles with people who read dumbed-down hallucinations of articles.

That is something that doesn’t seem American but is.

davel, (edited ) to news in ‘I can’t sing any more’: The survivors of China’s prison camps in Xinjiang – in pictures
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

Those photos are so harrowing 🙄 Meanwhile, the Guantanamo Bay detention camp and other American black sites are still open, and an actual genocide is happening in Palestine with American material & political support.

The Uyghur genocide has already been debunked several times over, but go on Guardian.

davel, to privacy in Dropbox is sharing users' files with OpenAI, here's how to opt out
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

DropBox has been dead to me since 2014 when they put former US Sec. of State Condoleezza Rice on their board of directors.

davel, to linux in My First Regular Expressions
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

“regex” means “regular expression”, so “regex expression” means “regular expression expression”.

I just set my Display name to “Davel”. We’ll see if this propagates. Then I’ll delete my Display name, and see if “Dave” is retained by other instances. Then I’ll know that this is unrelated to the Markup table.
