I don’t get the hate against the lemmy devs tbh, they have their (perhaps controversial) political views but they leave everyone that’s not on their site alone and it feels like they develop lemmy pretty impartially

sure they might ban you off ml but that’s their site and they get to do whatever they want with it, just like every other instance

i mean network effect is a thing i guess but that’s not as important on lemmy where there are usually similarly large communities about genetic things on most major instances

don’t let them change the meaning of our words then

im just mocking the stats in the title because it implies that women and children are targeted but it’s not like prioritising men or adults makes it any better

it’s not like you can ethically decide whether any one of these age groups/genders are more guilty/innocent/valuable/important

killing through genocide is similarly unjust however you do it, it’s just that sometimes discriminating some groups makes it more beneficial for the genociding party (e.g. deaths of children are more emotionally powerful when used in media)

the stats don’t say that they don’t discriminate though, it’s just saying they don’t discriminate based on their status as a child or an adult, or gender

wow did you know that ~50% of people are female and ~50% of people in Gaza are children? what a shocking statistic that ~70% of people killed are women or children!

you can do two spaces
at the end of a line then newline to keep that newline in the formatting

it keeps like line spacing unlike with double newlines

you all need to learn to distinguish between the people/the government/the country

maybe it’s just because that’s the more memorable/unique parts of their name?

trump/biden is much more distinctive than donald/joe
clinton could refer to both bill or hillary
obama/kamala is more memorable than barack/harris (though maybe for obama that’s just because I’ve heard ‘obama’ so many times)

I’m not saying that’s definitely not true, just that there might be other reasons why

gives off the same ‘solution looking for a problem’ vibes as corporate marketing around ai lmao

I don’t like it because it’s placing an objective statement on a subjective matter. it’s also apparently run by a single person (which is understandable given what it needs to do) but I just don’t like the vibes that gives off.

I think it’d be a lot better if it just stated objective things (e.g. where their funding comes from, the corporate relationships, country they’re based in)

wtf does the article mean by 5G wwan chips being necessary for AI?

texas is unsuccessful then, and as a result the US is an unsuccessful country?

I don’t like many things about the US but I wouldn’t call the country itself unsuccessful

people won’t follow you to the new platform if you seem dumb
