trafficnab, to asklemmy in Does AI-generated art posted on lemmy bother you?

I feel like people holding up human made art as some bastion of high quality being encroached upon by the AI scourge have not spent much time delving deep into places like deviantart

Strong public housing would put most of the ratfuck kinds of landlords out of business by itself, if an affordable non-profit apartment is basically available to anyone who wants one, the private companies jacking up prices for pure profit now have to compete with that, and we solve the inelastic demand issue

It’s less of an imperial system, and more of an imperial suggestion

Millimeters especially, no way am I saying like “1/24th of an inch”

trafficnab, to memes in I think we've been had

I’m the same actually, I’m probably more likely to say 1cm than half an inch

I’m fluent in metric but I can’t think in anything but imperial, I’m merely converting in my head on the fly

When you ask a British person how much they weigh and they start talking about rocks

Just bailouts

The best we can realistically do in our current time and place, then

trafficnab, (edited ) to memes in Government money

Hard to effectively punish entities that feel no pain and are otherwise basically immortal

Best we can really do is mow the grass periodically (which the US gov has been failing to do for a LONG time now, although we’re starting to see anti-trust rumblings in the tech industry now thankfully)

I don’t want them to be nationalized though, I want them to be able to operate without needing government intervention, basically the exact opposite

How do you determine when a company is in this “too big to fail” category, to get access to this program?

If a company is about to go bankrupt and congress decides it’s too important to let that happen, exactly how it happens currently

How do you draw the lines in that company to fractionate it? Geographically? Randomly?

That’s for business people, lawyers, and politicians to figure out, it’s happened multiple times before, look into the breakup of Standard Oil or Bell

If a company is “too big to fail” the punishment should be that the government bails them out, then breaks it up into smaller parts that are free to fail or succeed naturally without government intervention

Wouldn’t this mean that the millions of Israelis born in Israel over the last 80 years probably have the strongest claim to the land (at least the internationally recognized 1967 borders anyway)? 1916 is not particularly recent

When I accidentally download a file on my phone, I actually have no idea where it went, it just kind of vanishes into the aether after the notification disappears
