I think it depends on how it’s said, and opinion. It would be nice if both of you addressed the actual point I’m trying to make instead of trying to gotcha me.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't, huh? :)

Routinely? I doubt that. Of course I don't agree with everything he does, but I agree with his vision.

One word causing post visibility restriction is not enough for your post to make sense. Other slurs also cause this to happen, which you would probably agree with. The post is still available for reading, and will still appear under the post it's a reply to, just at the bottom behind a button.

If you never noticed the thought police, you were of the kind of people that Twitter wanted there to exclusively be. That's okay, but not a realistic view of the world. However, people with differing ideologies were pushed away. Yes, that includes literal nazis. But that also includes people who don't agree with the status-quo and want to see something different. The old twitter gave the impression of a world where 99% of the people agree with the current state of things, which is just not reality.

X is the only platform where you can see the real state of the world, raw, unedited. That's INCREDIBLY valuable and I'm absolutely baffled by how everyone here seems to celebrate censorship. We fought wars over this.

> I'm not going to return to a website that doesn't ban people unable to have a civilized conversation

That's your choice! Perfectly fine. For me, I don't want to close my eyes for what the world is actually thinking, even when they're in rage-mode. I think that makes your own thinking very narrow.

Also, it's a conscious choice they made - they're the only platform I know of that allows you saying anything with no penalty except for maybe a algorithmic one. That doesn't mean it sucks, or is a bad platform, or the transition failed.

Yes, he's pretty clear about his ideologies, none of which include hating Jews. In fact, he's a outspoken proponent of Israel. I really don't understand how people's brains make that into a Nazi.

Of course it surges when you re-instate complete free speech. But now you could interact with them, discuss with them, maybe sway them another way. Or you just ignore them and scroll away, or even block them, so the algorithm knows you don't want that content.

They're already being pulled down by the alg. It's just allowed now, and why shouldn't it be? I think it's better for humanity overall if these people are not pushed into a small echo-chamber but instead can speak freely and openly.

We should go back to sticks & stones. Let hate flow off you and instead look for love, which is also still there.

But you state they get it back, sooo..?

It's still running fine for me with actual interesting content. I don't get this take, feels like only people who don't use it at all (anymore) say it's been a bad transition or "X sucks now" but they're not using it.

It's still just Twitter, but you're not being banned anymore. So ACTUAL discussions can take place without having the thought police running around with a banhammer.

So I’m of the same opinion minus the wet wipes due to the obvious hazards. But if your diet is fine, there’s literally only what they call “ghost poop”.

It’s baffling to me, really. Also, it’s your anus, 99.9999% clean is also ok.

Profit in terms of knowledge or just actual money (guessing)

What would that solve? A scraper could just have a wallet with 10$?

Could you elaborate? I’m still happy with the performance of my 12 pro, even with LLMs and SD for instance.

“These kinds”…? Unnecessary flaming.

Much deeper and works better than anything like it, at least from what I’ve seen around the web. And that’s only from my phone. Very well done

I even got quake to run, haven’t tried connecting a keyboard yet.

Bitcoin at its highest point in history right now but whatever

> Musk steps away and the company issues a full statement distancing themselves from Musk and his politics.

I'll tell you right now: the stock will plummet. That's my prediction.

Not worldwide I guess... But I see so, SO many Teslas driving around, it's bizarre how far they got in such little time.

Even if it’s you pulling the strings, it feels the way it is: a robot talking. It feels fake. Because it is. You’re not unique, so you’ll never stand out either. Just learn grammar on your own, and you’ll retain/add character to the text.

Now you’re just prompting. Just post the prompt, that’d be way more fun to read.

Even factorio started out on tried-and-tested libraries before moving away from them primarily because of optimization concerns (right?)

If that's your only argument, it's a bad one.

Grok is almost completely uncensored. That's incredibly useful.

Eye roll

We also can't have >500EUR in our homes

I'm going through the same thing. Grew up dreaming of having a pocket computer. Nowadays you can basically live your entire life on the internet, as others are doing the same; people (think they) get their social needs met, buy food, do their work, find partners, anything. And it seems like a big part of the younger crowd wants (?) this trend to continue.

I don't want to speak for you, but I think there's a big crowd that's unique here: we have one foot in the "old world" and got to experience that, and now we see the "new world".

If you grow up with basically a phone in your hand, and you see how big a part of your life it is, I think you're way more inclined to appreciate these changes. After all, their phone is an extension of who they are, it's part of the whole picture, the outfit.

> willing to break from convention

By following this new shiny convention!

I have my cursor set to "pretty damn big" because my resolution is also big. Makes it more visible. Sure, now the contrast is really nice, but it's still a tiny circle I have to find instead of a humongus arrow I'm used to.

Guess we'll get another browser extension soon... I'd call it "My Emotions!"

It's effectively designing to maximize attention retention, or however you want to call it. Keep the eyes at your product for as many seconds as possible, to increase profit.

I mean... to make a dElIghtFul eXpEriEncE.

It sneaks in though. I only knew I had a problem when I started getting seizures.

Didn’t start at 6 cups a day. That happened over years and years of easy and accepted access to the drug everywhere I went.

Having caffeine jitters is a joke in society. But it’s literally just overdosing on drugs. Just plain ordinary drugs.
