Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What common thing should not only be banned, but criminalized with mandatory minimum sentences?English
29·7 months agoKeeping properties vacant instead of lowering rent. If you haven’t found a tenant within some set amount of time, 2-5 months or something idk, it should go to a public bidding process. Cities are full of empty commercial lots and half empty “luxury apartments.”

Technology@lemmy.zip•Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the futureEnglish
10·7 months agoThis is assuming that people get advantage from knowledge, expertise, and competency. In reality advantage comes from conforming to social norms, connections/nepotism/networking, race/class/sexuality, being able bodied and neurotypical, and having a personality that lends itself towards being organized, goal oriented, routine oriented, and more easily tolerating drudgery.
People aren’t going to do this because social connections give more power than knowledge and people are weirded out by this shit. What might actually happen is that certain employers may force their employees to wear similar technology for some reason.

Americans are free to talk about how much of a Nazi they are but can’t talk about wanting non-profit grocery stores. Very cool.

7·1 year agoYou realize there is a difference between derragatory and slur right? Boomer is meant to be an insult. That doesnt mean it should be put in the same category as words like the F, N, or T slur.
Boomer is used to point out an outdated mindset or way of thinking in an insulting way. Slurs are usually a way of drawing upon a history of oppression or pain to hurt someone. They arent comparable.
All someone has to do to avoid being called a boomer is to not say some boomer ass shit. By comparison Fa---- and tr---- are slurs that will follow me no matter how successful I am or how insightful and well meaning my words are.

Gaming@lemmy.ml•What games are you nostalgic towards but wouldn't go back and play?English
51·1 year agoWitcher 3. I don’t enjoy “dark” “gritty” stuff the way that I used to. I’m way more effected by some of the more explicit themes than I used to be. When I played it it was my only solace in a rough period of my life. I’d rather protect my fond memories than play it again, as I doubt it will mean as much to me now as then.

13·1 year agoSocialized medicine would benefit every single sector of the economy besides the insurance industry. It would deradicalize millions of Americans in an instant. It would increase the amount of doctors and nurses and healthcare workers tremendously. It would save them tons of money. But the government won’t do it because they aren’t powerful enough to tell roughly 20 of the 1000 most powerful executives in the country to fuck off.

26·1 year agoAI has plenty of good uses. Its just capitalism that finds the shittiest ways for them to be possibly used.
Having 3 part time jobs is a human rights violation







I still want to know what they are doing to scare them so much. Like, what did they say to AOC after her protest in Pelosi’s office? Or Mamdani after the primary? Like, its not just the 180 its how fast and abrupt it is. What are they saying to them, threatening them with?
