When are we going to call algorithms what they are, automatic editors. Names need to be attached to algorithms can be blame for radicalisation

Why is it “very very stupid”?

If you allow it for people you don’t like, where the bar for others.

Sounds credible, reminds me of this old Icelandic beer ad where they asked why Ireland has no pretty women and Iceland is full of them. Blame the Vikings

I want to add on that Sid Meier had a philosophy called the one third rule, where on third of a new game would be kept from the previous, one third would be improved systems and one third would be new. I don’t think he is big into the studio at the moment, but i can see him still being a guiding light.

I don’t play many games, but civ patches will get the game polished and it will be a world better at some point. Until then, you can be the part that is booming the system or wait until the product is in a place that the community loves

Don’t give them ideas

Considering that they’re gonna give infantry shotguns to shoot down drones , I like where this universe is going

Thanks! I don’t mind paying for something if it goes to a good place

Thanks!

Any good Android apps?

When you stop to think, they really don’t offer us anything other than a named place we all agreed to meet

Very fair, the persecution of Jack Ma was very interesting. Haven’t heard of what happened in Vietnam though?

You shouldn’t need to be authoritarian to crack down on these systems though. I really liked what I saw Lena Khan doing in the US, what Brazil did to twitter or what Julie Inman Grant did here in Australia

Sorry if you replied to this already, but I wanted to add that what I meant to say is that they hide behind the accountability we give them

I get what you’re trying to say, they can incentivise accuracy and they do at least prompt people to be more accurate lest the community holds them to account. But what i don’t like is that there is no standard that the notes are held to and there is no accountability if either the original post or the community note are wrong.

I also don’t like that the social media publishers are pushing the fact checkers onto the community to be done for free, but at the end of the day they own the community note and can delete it if they don’t like it. We are doing their work for them and taking accountability away from them

Lawsuits. As it stands the US supreme court is that social media companies can not be held liable for the things their users publish. Fact checking companies can be sued, news companies can be sued (see fox news and the voting machines lawsuit), Facebook can’t be held responsible in the same way

I hate community notes, it’s a cost free way of fact checking with no accountability.

I also hate these big international tech companies. Forget too big to fail, these are too big to change. We are all techno peasants and they are our tech lords

and they make fun of Xi and criticise their government just fine <

Did you forget about Hong Kong already? What happened to 50 years of " One Country - Two Systems"

Do they actually? I mean why can’t I sell my days. If I quit the big tech companies and paid for the equivalent services, could I sell that data at a auction? Not having a go at you, just wondering how much our individual data is actually worth.

Definitely a typo, my bad

100%, that’s always been the case since the printing press was invented, but at some point you need to know that hate speech isn’t free speech
