yeah I was thinking this sounds "straightforward", for want of a better word
@futurebird
I'm annoyed because I know I'm not immune to propaganda despite my best efforts.
LLMs
@lethalbit
Maybe I see it this way because I deeply struggle with executive function, and I myself can't just DO things even if I really want to,
I've seen people argue that these tools are great for helping manage executive dysfunction and have it write a calendar, todo list, break something it steps, or whatever, and it's frustrating to see them sold as an accessibility tool. I'm not sure what to think about people that say it does help them. If a todo list were enough then I'd have solved everything by now.

I honestly do not care for soda pop. But I'm a sucker for Your Idol (best song in the movie IMO) so I'm not immune :p

I think post visibility and it all being "one big square" is a part why my social media of preference is pseudo-anonymous chatrooms under a certain size. Even if you use the same identity in multiple chat rooms, they're still separate places.
Posting on fedi feels too much like shouting into the void, and the post visibility doesn't offer fine grained enough controls. Closet like you mention is having multiple accounts. Maybe google+ style circles could be a thing. But also follower-only posts are broken in my opinion; if someone I follow replies to a post by someone only they follow, I don't think I should automatically be able to see their reply. In my opinion the default visibility replying to followers only should make the post visible to people who follow the top of the thread, but this would require followers to be public or the first server acting as a relay.

Late enough that I still encountered it naturally it in the wild but it initially confused me because I was already used to having a unified search bar.
re: view on christianity
@anarceus
For what it's worth not all versions of Christianity believe in original sin. I don't know enough to confidently say which ones do or don't, and if you asked any random individual believer in enough detail you'll probably get different answers.
But needing to believe in Jesus or some other sort of repentance for your own sins is a common belief still. I bet there's some exception there but I can't think of any.
@danirabbit
It'd be pretty cool if rust and wayland were as "woke" as these people think they are
@grimalkina
Thanks! I felt very silly that I couldn't tell from the context around it and the alt text, but you're right :)
A likely silly question
@grimalkina
I don't know enough to know, is this this journal an example of bad psychology or the start of trying to actually support gay and lesbian people (very flawed support no doubt, but an honest effort)?
@lumi @tauon
Yeah, I'm definitely more conscious of who's writing the software I pick and what kind of community is around it now. "apolitical" doesn't cut it
@anarceus
Yeah, it felt like in arcane it was done to avoid any sort of systemic change.
