if they can’t do what the board needs… They aren’t a good fit either

But does the board need it, or just want it to maximize profits, like boards usually do in their typical chase of infinite growth that isn’t sustainable?

And if the person won’t stick up for what they think is best for the company and the people (which they’ve deemed firing 50 people is that), maybe they’re not a good fit that way. But hey, they are sticking up for said company and 50 people, so maybe they are.

Yeah billy should be build IUDs not 3d printed guns

I see the /s but…The Ukraine war videos don’t show how to build IEDs, though. And even if they did, who would the parents sue? Ukraine, a nation at war? As opposed to 3D printed guns show you how to make them, and you could try to sue the gun company who it belongs to. And YouTube in both cases.

we didn’t do a good job transitioning from religious to secular values in that way.

A lot of religions were founded on and/or expanded by violence (Pilgrims to America, Knights Templar, Spanish Inquisition, etc), so I don’t remotely think “religious to secular” is the reason.

A cool quote…but fictional and not applicable in the real world. Has “both sides are the same so I’m not gonna vote” energy, which let’s the greater evil win. Kudos for maintaining neutrality and helping screw everyone over.

When a power imbalance that vast is concerned consent doesn’t exist.

At the time, sure. However, over a decade after the fact:

Maintaining that her affair with Clinton was one between two consenting adults…

So if the power imbalance was why she consented, you’d think she’d set the record straight and say she was pressured or forced into it despite saying yes at the time. But she didn’t. Ergo, she consented and your argument is invalid.

So is bullshitting. More so, only human minds can bullshit.

And a bull’s anus.

This chud uploaded potentially sensitive information to a public service.

A bill draft, which eventually/maybe gets signed and is public by its very nature is sensitive?

People really need education on how to intelligently use these services.

Agreed on principle, but I don’t see how what he did was wrong…other than calling ChatGPT a subject matter expert.

Is there a Lemmy community like R4R? If there is, I can’t find one.

Just did a search, and there are 3 with none active.

Unfortunately the fact that NFC can’t be used on anything that’s rooted anymore is kind of a deal breaker.

NFC can be used on GOS, and they frown on rooting.

If I could use google pay and my normal banking apps with GrapheneOS I would switch to it today.

It’s due to PlayIntegrity API wanting a “Google certified OS,” which is ironically less secure than hardware attestation that GOS supports. I doubt Google would change their model, but your bank might. Some banks do support GOS, and they have changed at the request of their customers before. Send them the GOS documentation and you might get lucky.

We need hardware requirements so that not just pixel phones can get grapheneOS.

GOS has strict hardware requirements to increase security that currently only Pixels meet. They won’t, and shouldn’t, compromise their standards which would give you a weaker OS. Want GOS on other vendors? Convince those vendors to up their hardware game.

I know that’s the point, which is why I said it. The person I replied to asked if they were missing something, so I was attempting to educate them on said point. Then they edited their post to add the /s after the fact.

case in point: people still use twitter.

And WhatsApp over Signal/Molly.

Most browsers I run into, you can search from the address bar. You can also disable or point to a different search engine, if you want. So you could skip going to the site. That aside…most browsers would accept google.com and not need the full https://www

I say most anecdotally as I haven’t tested them all.

I don’t know, sounds reasonable chief.

They want to talk to everyone so they’re blocking someone/anyone? That does not sound logical. If that instance defederates, all that person has to do is just not use them as their home instance. They’re saying they want to talk to everyone, but they’re going out of their way to not do so (by blocking an instance, for whatever reason). Makes no sense to me.

Why isn’t Rumble an option?

For most people who refuse to use it, it’s probably because they view it as more a haven for extremism and hate speech, as it seems to have made its niche by allowing those who were banned elsewhere (not always a bad thing…depends on offense).

Most of Rumble’s prominent accounts are run by individuals, not organizations, and about a quarter have been banned or demonetized on other social media sites. The Center’s study examined 200 prominent accounts on Rumble, selected from those with the most followers. As of June 2022, about eight-in-ten accounts (78%) were individuals while 21% were organizations. About a fifth of these prominent Rumble accounts (22%) have been banned or demonetized on other platforms.

Guns, abortion and LGBTQ issues were among the subjects that prominent Rumble accounts focused on in June 2022. A review of posts from these 200 prominent Rumble accounts found that about half posted about guns and gun rights (49%) or abortion (48%), 44% posted about LGBTQ issues, and 42% posted about the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. These posts came amid widespread discussion of major events and issues that were regularly covered in the news at the time.

That’s not correct. It just says not recognized, and let’s you try again. I just tested it. Do you have documentation that it should work the way you said and mine is faulty?

but if I’m going to pay for search it’s something like Perplexity.

Generative AI search engine Perplexity, which claims to be a Google competitor and recently snagged a $73.6 million Series B funding from investors like Jeff Bezos, is going to start selling ads, the company told ADWEEK…“Advertising was always part of how we’re going to build a great business,” said Shevelenko.

It takes Googles results and filters out the crap and orders results differently…

It uses more than just Google’s, FYI.

so that maybe they can get some fucking perspective

Your idea could maybe work, if they didn’t think was staged and part of some conspiracy. The real (harder to implement, but long term) solution would be to fix the education system and nip this in the bud.

Unfortunately, not to my knowledge. Cheapest is $9.99/year.

Could you show us a few not so biased news sources? I suppose this will also vary wildly by topic. A news outlet might be narrative/propaganda driven on one topic, but not about another.

Have you heard of Ground News? It’s basically a news aggregator that shows multiple stories on the same event, but with a bias rating and a factuality score, as well as a ownership category. Also, a blindspot category which shows articles being shown predominantly by one side and not the other.

The Ground News bias ratings are calculated using three independent news monitoring organizations: All Sides, Ad Fontes Media, and Media Bias Fact Check. This score does not measure the bias of specific news articles. It is an assessment of the political bias of the publication. The rating takes into consideration things like the wording, story choices and political affiliation of the outlet.
