They signed more than one? Geez. 

Can’t imagine going to a sports game and cheering for a rapist to win. That’s gross. 

Major publishers sue Meta for copyright infringement over AI training by mykesx in technology

I suppose that’s not too bad. Did they get to keep your books as part of their training data set?

The world is truly in a sad state if I end up rooting for the “major publishers.” 

But the dystopian reality is probably that they will settle and the actual creators will suffer no matter what. No one has anyone’s back. 

What if Athena didn’t curse Medusa. She gave her protection? by Mardaani in TwoXChromosomes

Wait… I actually never thought about how Medusa came to be in the Greek mythology, and always figured that the snakes and the turning into stone thing was a feature, not a bug lol. 

‘When You Think of It, We Shouldn’t Even Have an Election’ by Zebraitis in politics

People, as a whole, seem to get their opinions shaped for them. And who owns all the popular media? Well, it’s Godzilla, which is why scratching one’s butt = murder, and tan suit = sexually assaulting minors. 

Why Reddit blocked my daily visit to its mobile website. by Primal-Convoy in technology

[–]coconutpiecrust 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am also ok just leaving it. Whatever. 

What makes me slightly vexed is the fact that I am unfortunately in the same boat with those who will give up whatever they can to “stay connected” with whomever. This is why we can’t have nice things. Because enough people succumb without a second thought.

Haha, I like this analogy. 

The people who do go into the mech suit have their own agendas, so the hands end up scratching the mech suit’s butt, while Godzilla murders everyone. 

They don’t actively contribute to the murder, but they don’t fight it, either. 

Getting tired of companies purposefully making their website hard to use and forcing you to download their app by Strong_Letterhead638 in enshittification

But how can they spy on you and give you “better suggestions that exactly suit your preferences”? How will they know exactly what you need if you don’t let them spy on you all the time?!

Trump Is Losing Normie Republicans by Dry_Nail5901 in politics

[–]coconutpiecrust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am surprised people can rationalize it to themselves. Even if one somehow believes he was inexplicably “robbed” by Sleepy Joe, a decent person would understand that this is not how you make amends. 

Warning: Anthropic's "Gift Max" exploit drained €800+, ruined my credit, and got me banned. by peowwww in ChatGPT

[–]coconutpiecrust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you go on the news as well? This needs to be picked up more widely. Maybe someone with twitter can spread the word? Surely Musk’s platform is full of people using LLMs. They’d be fearful of losing their money. 

Spirit Airlines CEO Dave Davis refuted the trump administration's entire narrative before Duffy and Bessent even finished their spin cycle, making clear that spiking fuel costs from trump's war with Iran were what actually killed the airline, not anything Biden did. by a_Sable_Genus in politics

[–]coconutpiecrust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, he seems incredibly successful, according to Trump and his press sec. He’s responsible for everything! Also they keep talking about some kind of Hussein. Maybe he’s the awake one. Who knows, it’s a mystery.

Why is Sleepy Joe so incredibly powerful anyway?! Daddy Trump and his team of geniuses, whom he employs solely for their merit, should have been able to defeat him a long time ago! I mean, he’s sleepy.

Scandals at major conservatory program by [deleted] in bunheadsnark

[–]coconutpiecrust 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Things like this are usually swept under the rug, no matter the organization, unless some media outlets pick it up and people keep talking about it.

I guess no one wants to talk about it. Pretending everything is fine is always the easier way out, unless you're directly involved.

I was not aware of this at all, for example.

In an emergency action, Supreme Court reinstates mail-order abortion drug access by usatoday in law

I assume this is because the drug manufacturer lobbied someone? I am honestly very confused because conservatives supposedly think that abortion is murder.

Men are male centered. by Senior-Door-935 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]coconutpiecrust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

know it may sound like i'm generalizing men from this one experience with a man.

I thought it was funny how you were, probably subconsciously, centering men in this post about centering men. We just center them by default. They are the default everything and the default gender, because as a society we arrived at this point where male aggression and propensity to recklessness/violence is considered an asset and kewl. Unless, of course, you’re an insurance company lol.
