John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 27/08/2026this conversation is from half a year ago. how did you even find this?! 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 10/08/2026hell no, talk to her, talk to those trans friends. I often hear "don't talk to Nazis" and I wonder. are we just giving up on all those people? they talk to people and convince them of their views, why not the other way around? 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 13/07/2026this thread is 4 months old, how did you even find this?! 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026well I thought talking to them is the right thing to do, but no one seems to agree with me. if he was actively provoking and seeking attention, maybe denying that could work. Ignore him, cut him off of his friends... something like that 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026yeah this thing blew up, I guess it was a lot less when I first replied to it. I am genuinely surprised so many people are on the "more punching" side. I think a fair discussion where both sides think they are correct is possible, but probably not with someone like this "shut up colonizer" person. 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026maybe it should be that deep. I'd love to live in a world where there is less punching and more bad things changing for the better. I am genuinely surprised so many people here are fine with more punching and no change 200
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026I don't think I see myself as a victim here. Mostly because after replies like this I stop taking people seriously. It's so weird to me when people are this aggressive towards someone they never interacted with before. I'm definitely willing to be part of a fair discussion. 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026hold on, I can do cringe replies too, look at this classic: No you 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026maybe you should delete bsky too bsky.app/profile/alin... that's not really adding anything of value to any discussion 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 18/02/2026I wish it was a bit, but apparently punching someone because they said something we don't like is perfectly fine for many people And when I say something against that I get told to "shut up colonizer" bsky.app/profile/alin... I left twitter because I thought discussion would be better here... 200
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/02/2026I don't think that's going to stop ICE from murdering. just like punching the "I support ICE" guy is going to stop them 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/02/2026I'm not form the US... I am looking for something concrete I can do in my day to day life. I had similar conversations before and it usually doesn't get much further then "support" black and brown people, or "join the same fight" as you phrase it 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/02/2026ok so serious question, no sarcasm no quippy "your mother" reply: what do you think I can or should do? 200
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/02/2026btw, I have not punched, raped, murdered anyone or colonized anything. I had no influence in being born a white man. so what exactly do you want from me? 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/02/2026and then what? do you think people will change their mind after getting punched? I doubt it. I don't think I would. what about you? would you stop saying "all whites are colonizers" if you got punched by someone that disagrees? 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 15/02/2026I'll happily punch an ICE agent if they are trying to murder me. but some kid, trying to get attention? talk to them, their friends, family. maybe I can find something to get them to the side of good assaulting them doesn't look like a good guy move to me, for this situation 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 15/02/2026great discussion.... this also just makes the divide even bigger, just like punching the ICE guy 200
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 15/02/2026I doubt they will keep their bullshit to them selves. now we have violence on both sides and its just going to get worse 400
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 15/02/2026yes, answer unnecessary ICE violence with more unnecessary violence.... let me know if any ICE supporter changed their mind because of this, I doubt it 600
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 13/02/2026Persona seems to be a test run for some users. storing data is definitely weird if other providers can do the same without it. discord support says "up to" not "at least" seven day btw this is the article I read arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...arstechnica.comDiscord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDsDiscord to block adult content unless users verify ages with selfies or IDs. 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 11/02/2026the AI age verification tech is from a Swiss company called Privately SA. from what I read, it's processed on the user's device and only sends a "pass" or "fail" back to the server 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 06/02/2026just reading the title I expected something similar to Minecraft bingo, but instead of bingo squares the players have to collect as many unique deaths as possible. "...fell from a high place" "...froze to death" the game show was great as well, but I would love to see the death bingo at some point 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 22/12/2025productivity could be summarizing emails, schedule meetings, assign tasks... all kinds of administrative stuff happening in the background 320
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 22/12/2025"......However, as with Larian, Bethesda, and Warhorse, Nowakowski stressed that AI cannot be used to replace creatives, or indeed to make a game, and that it's merely a tool to help speed up the process....." quote from that article. so maybe it's of a summarize eMail, schedule meetings kind of AI 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 19/12/2025can you give an example where "techbros seem to love Tolkien"? 110
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 16/12/2025I think the terms normal AI and GenAI are still a problem and might not be the same for everyone. I assume for you, GenAI is AI that makes "art". stories pictures videos.... but what is "normal" AI? and where is the line between them 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 10/12/2025I've seen this trend before. why are people going all the way back to vinyl instead of CD? 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 25/11/2025the fine could be huge, but I know that is very unlikely. the only good thing of a supposed arse-handing would be a big compensation for the fired person, so at least they don't have to worry too much while looking for a new job 110
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 25/11/2025I know Unions can be quite different in different countries, so maybe this is not that weird in your area. but if something like this can happen, what's even the point of a union? 020
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 14/11/2025unknown worlds, the devs of subnautica said they are not going to use GenAI. Krafton is the publisher. so maybe not all is lost here 210
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 05/11/2025probably not now, but down the road they will be cheaper to operate. it always comes down to money 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 04/11/2025I'm still hopeful someone is going to use AI for something interesting, something that would be pretty much impossible without. Imagine a game like Apex Legends where a stadium announcer is live commenting, calling out player names and things going on in the game. 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 22/10/2025hell yeah, let me just grab 2000 W of green LEDs from work.... no more migraines!! 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 08/10/2025ah ok, that might make it more interesting. can you give me a song with a good fade out solo so I can get a better idea of what you mean? I think I prefer unexpected or surprising things like the sudden stop in Queen's We Will Rock You. or the rhythm changes in Katzenjammer's Land of Confusion cover 110
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 07/10/2025interesting. I expected the opposite, a longer fade is less dramatic and more boring. can you give me a song with a good long dramatic fade out? 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 06/10/2025I never heard a fade out I would describe as "dramatic". can you give an example? 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 11/09/2025isn't that what we do in any strategy game, like civilization? or card games like hearthstone. 020
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 11/09/2025when I read about this topic I often wonder why no one seems to "go after" the people that actually make the laws and take away trans rights, like judges and politicians all that HP money would mean nothing if we remove the people that let themselves be influenced by it from their powerful positions 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 03/09/2025personally I am not afraid of nuclear power or the operation of the power plants. I am worried about safe long term storage of nuclear waste. and the search for a solution on that is quite stagnant 220
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 31/08/2025that's not a source, that's just the same statement with more text 100
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 30/08/2025that's just normal supply and demand. unless the data center does not pay the same increased rate, then its bullshit 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 15/08/2025even if there is online multiplayer, the game should work offline. just say "multiplayer currently not available" and let me play the rest of the game solo 020
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 12/08/2025on that note: NOT 👏 ALL 👏 AI 👏 IS 👏 THE 👏 SAME yes a lot of what's out there right now is AI slob trained on stolen art but the right AI model for the right task can be a useful tool. most people probably just don't want to put in the effort to use it that way 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 02/08/2025this doesn't look too bad as a screenshot. maybe the belts just look full because they are 100% efficient..... but its nuclear, so of course it's no good 😆 000
John B @itsme-johnb.bsky.social · 01/08/2025all of this seems off to me. vastly more bots on twitter? probably. but 75% Vs 2...... unlikely. 000
