I guess here the topic is more of insurrections, like what’s happening in Iran right now or how it went on in HK

I have no clue what you believe this event is actually about and why people go there.

We don’t need to involve racism, an American pseudo-science, to consider Americans barbarians. That’s what an American would do: to reduce everything about race when it has nothing to do with it.

Also, it’s white guilt, we all know American liberals and leftists enjoy this stuff.

We cut ties with American people because they are annoying, puritanical and self-entitled.

Saying shit like this is very American, for example.

Include anche la lingua inglese. Da adesso su Lemmy si parla solo Italiano.

Met two people from Transnistria, one from the Isle of Man and one from Micronesia. I wouldn’t say they are super rare but I’m quite sure most American would consider these fictional countries.

In Italian it’s not really used. There’s an extremely fringe group of people who use singular pronouns “Io” (I) but plural adjectives and participles. “Io sono andati” instead of “Io sono andato” or “Io sono stanchi” instead of “Io sono stanco”.

These are regarded as people who spend too much time on Tumblr and consume American media even within the most militant corners of the transfeminist movement, so it doesn’t have much traction.

Most of the discourse is about gender-neutral language rather than pronouns.

To add to the confusion, Italian has no neutral gender, only male and female, but it retains neutral pronouns: esso/essi. The problem is that by ending in “o”, most people think this is an alternative masculine pronoun and use it interchangeably with the masculine pronouns “egli” or “lui”.

I think the point is more general about profiting from “renting” their music rather than from their labor. The fact that Spotify gives them peanuts make their position even more miserable.

if you have the right kind of potato, it’s very easy and it takes less time than most handmade pasta

Coolness is the enemy of social relationship. Be cringe and be free.

If you want a sandwich, you have to make it.

I don’t think AIliens are the same as AGI. I believe in this frame AIliens exist in the mind of people, rather than in the machine. It’s behavior complex enough to be interpreted as such, rather than a sentient being thinking of itself as sentient, as AGI implies. It’s alive in the same way an organization is alive and thinking, or a mycelium network. AGI is human-like intelligence reproduced in silicon. AIliens are… alien.

who here is terrified of technology?

A lot of these spaces are reading, writing and designing around so-called “anti-capture” protocols exactly to avoid that.

I’m one of the few volunteer contributors to Bonfire, and I would never dream of recommending Mozilla to use it. You have to reach out to people where they are at, not pick the tools based on prime principles. American platforms are blackmailing us by gatekeeping access to audiences, but it’s not like you can pretend most humans are reachable on microscopic federated platforms. Which btw is not the intended use case for bonfire.

yeah, I conveyed a similar feedback to the author of the article. Thanks for the analysis

what’s wrong with the title?

I don’t understand your downvotes. If they are from scabs, or they are from people who only read the title and thought this is some managerial shit.

because I joined a long time ago?
