Fascism is all the rage everywhere at the moment. Shit sucks. And the people in power are basically like, "we need minorities to murder"

Probably moral guidelines that are left leaning. I've found that chatGPT 4 has very flexible morals whereas Claude+ does not. And Claude+ seems more likely to be a consumer facing AI compared to Bing which hardlines even the smallest nuance. While I disagree with OP I do think Bing is overly proactive in shutting down conversations and doesn't understand nuance or context.

To be fair, people are having their right to exist being questioned, and some people just became second class citizens by law recently. It's kind of a big deal.

People's driving senses are so fucking bad, I can't imagine them flying. It'll be in the news often I guess "car crashes into building while trying to back up." "car flies into power lines thousands without power" well I guess that's fairly typical already.

I mean, yeah. That's because they were tasked with something they had never done before. Given a product that's absolutely awful from even a marketing perspective. Gollum? Really?

I think it's funny that you can't really prep for this. It's going to be a slow collapse, slowly churning and making it impossible for anyone to survive. As critical infrastructure fails, food, water sources dry up, and the only solution anyone is capable of giving: "Try biking to work". Realistically it should be "get ready for an apocalypse." No amount of prep will leave you untouched.

Only things that entertain us are things we care about. As the world's sorrows and tragedies grow by the day, everything from climate change to mass shootings of toddlers, we're numb. The one thing that helped is that it was rich people, we all (except republicans apparently) want to eat the rich, and these guys said sure we'll just go drown, they're pretty much allies. Gotta celebrate that.

No.

I do wish kbin showed the magazine instance on the very top instead of bottom of the comments. Or on a side bar.

To be fair, I do see some signs of it here as it's grown. It wasn't like this even five days ago, where you would see downvotes on comments that weren't inherently just toxic or just being assholes. But lately, I see more downvotes for people stating a differing opinion to the majority, or even asking questions. To me that's usually the start of the toxicity.

I mean, I tend to bet on the average person's stupidity. So I'd answer yes?

Yeah I'm in agreement with this. I've found the community here pretty engaged, and the content keeps coming. I think the hard part is recognizing that bigger isn't always better, especially when you lack the tools to customize it. Between this and artifact, I'm pretty content with my discussion/news outlets.
