What? There are quite a few Germans who rebelled against against the Nazis and are recognized for it.

All caps doesn’t make you cool or interesting. Just annoying.

Again - not an option for the majority of people. Not only does that require significant amounts of money, it also assumes the place you’re going is accessible (eg open borders, etc) You’re advocating from a position of privilege and/or ignorance of you think “just leave” is a reasonable suggestion.

So are you advocating for action or “not playing” (ie rolling over)? Make up your mind.

You say that as if it’s an option for everyone in said country.

They wouldn’t control shit without half that 62% sitting at home, implicitly supporting it with their inaction.

The Lemming Cliff

That thing is such a nuisance. Makes the modlog nearly unusable.

He was already shocked Bahamas turned down his “offer” to send them deported people. I think it’s only a matter of time before they send a plane somewhere anyhow and get US flights promptly banned everywhere.

I didn’t say ban.

They were founded after being kicked off reddit, then self isolated from the fediverse for years, creating the echoiest of echo chambers. It’s like those Appalachian families that were so isolated they basically developed their own culture, language and all. They’ve spent too long “struggle sessioning” together and driven out any of the more reasonable users with their purity tests. They think they’re the “true” Lemmy users and only refederated to “spread the word” and antagonize all the “liberals” (read: anyone that’s not 100% with them). The one thing I dislike about my server is that they haven’t defederated from that place.

Appreciated.

Interesting. Thanks!

Providing an actually useful summary instead of more click bait would be preferred.

LLMs can help you figure out more specific search terms and where to look.

Not knowing how to use a search engine properly doesn’t mean these sites are better. It just means you have more to learn.

Use something else.

No.

Yes.Using chatgpt as a search engine showcases a distinct lack of media literacy. It’s not an information resource. It’s a text generator. That’s it. If it lacks information, it will just make it up. That’s not something anyone should use as any kind of tool for learning or researching.

Maybe go to more than 2 places for your information? I agree that this shit is also an issue with news and other media, but it’s not that hard to find more substantial information on things. At least not yet.

And I can’t remember the exact process off hand, but there’s still a way to get search results without that garbage on google. I’ll edit if I can find it.

*Found it. So, at least for Firefox, you can add a custom search engine through the settings. For the url, input https://www.google.com/search?q=%25s&udm=14 and then set it as your default se if you want. As far as I can tell, it’s a simplified version of the main search, just without the “helpful” add-ons. Hope it helps some people.

**For some reason Lemmy is adding a ‘25’ between the % and s. Those numbers shouldn’t be there, just fyi.

I certainly agree with that - if the service can’t be provided, they shouldn’t be taking money for it.

Yeah, to me this reads less like a specifically racist choice and more so a tangent of POC being left/forced to live in impoverished areas, the latter of which will go hand in hand with higher crime rates. I sympathize with the frustration to the decision, but I can’t think of a good argument for forcing Amazon to put it’s employees at risk.
