It's this program where it seems like you move thru a room.

I don't consider it a game, rather a program. I have made neat wallpapers out of images with it.

This might belong in some circlejerk sub, but I think it's somewhat clever. Basically, if AI datacenters get shut down, the power that would've been used to generate AI slop could be used for magnificent things. I mean, it's purely clean energy because instead of using gas or oil, you take energy that COULD be used for something useless and put it to better use. Think of all the applications.

• We could power countless electric cars, trains, and bikes.
• We could power countless medical devices like pacemakers and defibrillators.
• We could power countless lights in people's homes.

All this could be accomplished by not building massive datacenters. What's more is that there could be countless gallons of clean drinking water used for surgical cleaning and chemistry that would otherwise serve to cool the amount of datacenter power. Think of all the possibilities!

If only Sam Altman could understand this...!

It stands for "The (U)nited (S)oviet (S)ocialist (R)epublic (W)ill (R)ise (A)gain"

One is for Cascadian History, the other is anti-AI, which is dated now that AI is revealed to be a scam. I may need some more experience on Lemmy.

I haven't read these yet, but I will soon. This is in response to the United States using drones to enact ethnic cleansing. This was a breakneck search, but if anyone has a good in-depth article for countering drone warfare, please let me know.

A good idea would be for drone hobbyists to outfit theirs with weapons. It's incredibly important, too, to target factories, and develop chemicals, EMPs, and other technologies that can disrupt drone functioning (drones are quite fragile). Hopefully China, or otherwise industralized states, developing drones en masse can send some to resistance groups.

I'm trying to post any comments, but it endlessly loads. I'll check my internet connection

I was just thinking about it after looking it up. What has it, in world affairs, actually done? What changes did it make to society that were worth making?

EDIT: I wanted to ask this because I had some thoughts on Critical Theory that I wasn't sure of. I thought it was just empty talk that would be repeated and repeated but never acted upon. Like, what would our world look like without Critical Theory being developed? How come such a "great ideology" couldn't actually stop the War of Terror, or the election of Donald Trump, or wealthy corporate executives becoming obscenely rich, or the Housing Crisis and Great Recession, or the Rwandan Genocide, or Russia's invasion of Ukraine, or anything? What does it do to actually help people?

I wanted to show all these indie sites so that you guys could explore. These have really good ideas and aren't hindered by concision.

This is a really good read. If you have any crits let me know.

Sometimes, I'd scroll Reddit because something would link there, but in the case of making a new account, I can't post anything, even comments because there's a minimum karma limit on almost every sub.

The deal is that Lemmy doesn't have the number of users that Reddit has. I suppose I'll make new communities. That'll help.

What should we do after Harris/Walz is elected? I was wondering if you had some ideas. Here are mine:

• Mass strikes in the workplace, demands being taxes for the rich and higher wages
• Mass strikes in the military, demands being to end support for Israel, take away excessive military bases, shut down Gitmo, drastically reduce the budget, &c
• Get as many people off the internet as possible
• Get people arms and arms training so they can defend themselves without police, and heavily reduce police funding
• Refuse to pay any landlords, lead attacks on real estate offices

Maybe some stuff would be extreme, but I ask you please to separate the wheat from the chaff, along with adding your own material. I may not be that smart, but at least I'm preparing.

(If you want to remember to vote, set yourself a timer like everyone else with memory issues. It should go ding on the day you get your ballot!)

I also feel kinda hazy
