  • (TW) Phishing mail in 2026

  • Trigger warnings should be labelled anyway, like TW [rape]. A blanket trigger warning is useless, how are people supposed to know what topic is triggering?

  • (TW) Phishing mail in 2026

  • LOL.

    Don't make me do it again.

  • Humans are part of the ecosystem.

  • Agreed, if we all cut out meat from our diet, land the size of both of the America's and China are returned to us while still providing the same amount of food. 20% of the entire planets GHG emissions are instantly removed. Humans aren't a virus, people who refuse to change their lifestyles are.

  • How about the digestive system?

  • But this one seems to be updated for some reason? The bottom spit take reaction is not the original.

  • Accidentally range testing an electric motorcycle, and unexpected kindness

  • Na it's belt driven, apparently the belt can lose teeth and require replacement, but it's rare, so I don't consider it a maintenance part like you would a chain

  • Accidentally range testing an electric motorcycle, and unexpected kindness

  • I had a Kawasaki Z 400 for about a year, good fun, absolutely enough to get yourself in trouble. Then I basically swapped it for a SuperSoco TC Max.

    I prefer the electric even though it's a big power downgrade (about a 125cc equivalent).

    It's considerably lighter (it's 102kg with the 22kg battery), so my 48kg Mrs has no trouble keeping it upright (she dropped her Honda Cb250 once or twice).

    It's essentially silent (don't wake the neighbours at 5am), I can charge it at work, no chain/oil/fluids beyond brake fluid, and has a really neat power delivery. I bought it when electric bikes in were rare, nowadays I'd definitely go for something with more grunt like OPs braaap, or a Zero.

  • Why FitGirl won't die: The repacker millions of gamers depend on in an age of surveillance

  • My logic is buy the game, now you have a perpetual license. I bought Abe's Oddysee on the PS1, I can now download any roms, any re-releases, any ports. Buy all new games, and if it gets taken off of steam, free reign to pirate.

  • Nimbus - Oat Milk Powder Review

  • Nice, I've noticed the ads and have been tempted, but your sentiment echoes all I've heard. I think some councils can recycle tetrapaks, I'll have to confirm that mine does... Otherwise I'm currently defiling my recycling bin...

  • You're Not Bad At Job Hunting—30% Of Job Postings Are Fake

  • "These phantom job postings aren't just wasting your time. They're stalling your career while destroying your confidence."

    The most ghastly AI phrase, gave up reading right there.

  • It's Fun For The Whole Family

  • Don't normalise him? He's the president...? I don't think a Lemmy boycott of reaction pics is gonna sway much.

  • What's a service you’ve been using forever that hasn’t enshitified?

  • You can login and it'll stop with the pop ups for a year.

  • Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot

  • I mean, it cited the exact line in the other hospitals EA, that's what deep research mode does. Methinks you don't know how far chatgpt has come, and are just basing it off of the original models?

  • Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot

  • helping along the death of the internet

    Am I? Chastising those on Lemmy for using AI, are they the cause of the dead internet theory? Or is that caused by bot farms manipulating social media algorithms? Just because a hammer builds weapons doesn't mean one should ban the hammer.

    You may not contribute to scraped sites

    I disagree, AI is likely a solution to worsening forums and the like - boring old repeated questions will be answered by AI, anything more unique and interesting will be asked of real people.

    I like gathering information

    Unless you're doing your own physical research on every possible query and question, you're just as complicit as an AI user for gathering secondary information. You reading a blog post on a topic is no better than me reading an AI summary of 1,000 blog posts.

    Bubble bursts

    That's like getting angry at McDonalds for the 80s recession, because a bunch of secondary investors bet on it's perpetual success. Thats not the fault of McDonalds OR LLMs.

    These are lazy, illogical complaints about a new technology from reactionary conservative thinking, the same thing was said about the internet when you were younger, of TV when your parents were younger, and of the radio, and of the phonograph, and of the camera etc etc. Get with the times OLD MAN.

  • Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot

  • I mean, sure, if you use it to write an essay of course it's gonna impede knowledge retention. But that's the equivalent of going "the ctrl-c/ctrl-v command is associated with reduced pre-frontal cortex activation".

    I mean, I don't care if people refuse to get on board with new tech, but it screams a lack of understanding of the tech. People are going "musk bad, Altman bad, tech bro bad" and going "therefore chatgpt bad".

    Na chatgpt good, handy, I fed it my current Employee Enterprise Agreement and the previous 2, and asked via deep research for a comparison of them all, against comparable businesses to see if our pay increases were fair. Ive got a meeting today to argue for increases, after ChatGPT found that we were a little under. What a brilliant tool!

  • Part of the learning process is working and searching for an answer

    That logic can be used to poo-poo literally any study aid. Why is watching a YouTube video on how to tamp a post superior to a chatgpt summary?

    Why take the train when you should "expend an iota of effort" and make the 3 hour walk to work?

    This is unsound logic that I expect on Reddit, not Lemmy. Go continue your crusade against the spinning jenny, small-minded Luddite.

  • Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot

  • Fair enough, so why not use it while it's there?

  • Are We Living in a Golden Age of Stupidity? - Slashdot

  • Chatgpt helped me build my garden beds, build a lamp out of an old telephone, learn Japanese grammar quirks, improve lacklustre recipes, look after my plants and stop my dog from barking. That's this month.

    I could have gone to Reddit or blogs and scrounged around for hours/days to find that info, but chatgpt had already aggregated it and neatly presented it.

    The Luddites who refuse to use AI are simply that. You either don't understand it's weaknesses and learn to work around them, or you're becoming your techphobic grandparents.
