Its censorship if its being moderated away or threads are being locked, or if people are being banned for being “trolls”. There are many forms of censorship.

Thank you, appreciate the reply. :)

Have to make an example to keep the npcs in line.

The entire point of this is promoting self censorship in us, the ordinary people. We should be afraid to say what we think if its not politically correct.

It works too. Even Lemmy has plenty of people supporting censorship of opinions.

Yeah I think sales people are so trained into being sales people that they dont actually know how to talk like a human being anymore.

Seriously, there is something about those guys. They just cant talk normally. Not everyone. I have met some of them that just talk normally. and are aware of their products pros and cons in relation to what you need. Those are useful.

On the other hands, nerds can have their own little annoying habits too. Sometimes they have no social skills at all and act like machines.

Im not buying anything with ads. If I have to buy a new flat screen tv, im making sure it can be used without the internet, and any ads can be removed through network ad blocking or other tricks.

Its never enough ads until every surface has an ad on it. Fuck the entire ad business. Making the world ugly.

Swedish… Is such an ugly language.

Better than French though…!

Speaking about this, is Lemmy still being worked on full time? I dont think you guys got the money you requested for a decent salary. So how are you handling it?

This is actually because of Trump. If the man would have some kind of common sense and not ruin decades of cooperation…

Didnt know that. Maybe thats the secret to long life… :)

Maybe they import unhealthy food into your country because its popular there. Usually the food chains knows whats selling and are keeping those products.

Yeah thats true also. Also they have higher average iq than the rest of the world.

Must be the healthy food. They work all the time and drink alcohol aswell.

I saw some documentary about students and they have actual healthy food every day. Its not like in America.

I can easily get nothing done without having adhd. Its a blessing.

I think you have to be a man to understand how the body feels like. Its just designed to lift and pull things. So you feel strong in those areas without doing anything.

Some people get shot because guns were invented.

Yeah those things.

I will stop using it of course. There is a price to pay for not being affected by this. Its not going to be free.

Its not anti science to not blindly trust science. Its actual science to try and verify observations. Sure, most people dont have those skills to properly know what they are observing, but I think its good if people try to learn.

I learned tons of stuff about the common pitfalls about measuring the curvature of the earth by looking at flat earth arguments and seeing what science says about them.

Today you can throw those arguments into chat gpt and get a decent summary of how anything actual works.

Using lasers to track earth curvature across a big lake for example, absolutely fascinating to see why it doesnt work as you may expect.

Ah you meant like that…

Yeah, the power these companies have over our lives is very disturbing. They have positioned themselves as something most academic people really need, at least linkedin has.

Then I will just update my profile to a link my own cv page.
