No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Don't you all get tired of the constant negativity?

Technology@lemmy.world•‘IRL Fakes:’ Where People Pay for AI-Generated Porn of Normal PeopleEnglish
0·2 years agoI’m not saying there shouldn’t be consequences for someone who is spreading these pictures with the intention to cause harm to someone’s reputation but it’s incredibly naive to think that the justice system is going to stop deepfakes when it can’t even prevent bike theft. 12 year olds are making these with their smartphones. The technology is extremely accessible and easy to use and that is not going to change. I’m sorry but you’re not putting the toothpaste back into the tube. Wait a few years and you can generate photorealistic porn videos of anyone you want.

0·2 years agoI’m not saying it’s not a bad thing but it’s inevitable. The problem will just be getting worse and there’s no stopping it. It’s something we’re just going to need to accept as a new normal. If we can deal with living under the constant threat of nuclear armageddon then I think we can live with fake nudes aswell.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If we can ban trans medical procedures, why haven't we banned circumcision?
1·2 years agoI have been physically punished when I did something bad as a kid. I’m not traumatized by that either but I still think it’s good that it’s illegal nowdays.
It’s okay to talk to women if you’re a male model but stay the fuck away if you aren’t. Got it.

Technology@lemmy.world•MacBooks, Chromebooks lead losers in laptop repairability analysisEnglish
1·3 years agoThanks. There’s plenty of instructions on how to do it but in my case the biggest issue would probably be sourcing a new Finnish keyboard for it

1·3 years agoI’m using external keyboard on my macbook because the letter i is not working and replacing the keyboard means completely gutting the thing and ripping the old one out by force as it’s locked in place with plastic rivets.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?
2·3 years agoJudging by news and media I’d probably feel that way just being in US in general

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?
5·3 years agoWell maybe not 90% but I do feel like smarter* than average but then again half of the population is so that hardly makes me special.
- By “smarter” I don’t mean that I know more things than others. Just that I feel like I posses the ability to think more clearly and objectively that most other people.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some posts all of a sudden have a yellow background to them?
4·3 years agoYou sure? Because when I open a thread I haven’t viewed before there’s just a few random comments that are highlighted and it’s doing that my my own comments aswell.
EDIT: Like this one

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What do we think of greenpeace activists?
161·3 years agoWe? How about you either study the subject and form your own opinion or then don’t have an opinion on it at all.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•on youtube how do I downvote an ad? or how do i tell youtube that "hey this ad is not something I want to see?" I know ad blockers don't work on youtube anymore but how do I tweek what ads i do see?
42·3 years agoThird option is to use the service without ads by either subscribing or using an adblocker.



There’s probably a healthy middle ground somewhere between the two extreme ends. “Sticking your head in the sand” is harder than you’d think. I go out of my way to try and avoid seeing these articles but I bet you couldn’t name a single current event I haven’t heard of.
