I think the project would do better with a different mascot. Krita is good software, but that mascot just sends the wrong vibes.

Is it actually true that AI is biased? Surely, an AI cannot "be biased", it just looks at the input data and outputs it's own. This is not bias. If anything the regulation "hardcoded" into the models is the only bia

Nowadays the debate always tends to be drawn by dishonest actors towards if something "technically counts" as censorship or not. The idea of free speech is no longer upheld as something of an important idea, but rather something w

This article seems incorrect enough to question the motives behind publishing the piece at all. As other comments in this thread have already pointed out, many authors predate Lester del Rey by many decades. Genres rarely just spring out of

Right, who are those on that board. Do they have ties to the rest of society through ethnic, religious or political means?

If the only problem was socio-economic, it would affect native Swedes as well. The problem is actually not socio-economic with these people.

The immigration was never an economic benefit for Sweden, I recall that someone calculated that the average immigrant was actually a net cost for the nation, given the disproportionate amount of welfare costs that it takes to take in these

The situation in Sweden is dire and everyone living in the west would do well to listen to the lack of sounds our canary is making. Decades, with an emphasis on the last decade, of disastrous immigration policies have lead up to this and wh

Not quite two weeks ago I was discussing the censorship that we face in the west with a few other users here. Some of them seemed to not quite believe their ears when I brought up the phenomena. I think that some good can come of bills like

I am afraid a too candid discussion about what is being censored on these plattforms is a discussion that easily leads to flames. I also certainly don't mean to just talk about censorship performed at the request of governments. (a req

No I mean the west in the traditional usage of that word, countries in Europe just as well. I am sorry, but at the moment I don't feel like writing something comprehensive up about the situation in Europe, or my country Sweden. But it

I think history will be quite harsh on the censors in the west once we regain our footing, but not only the activists who pushed for these ideas through various means, but also to technicians (looking at a lot of people who might be reading

I think your analysis as to why the west is different from china in this regard is correct. And while you say that they are far from reaching the same degree of intensity, I say that I disagree. But to elaborate much further would lead to u

Wow, thank you, I had not read this quote from Orwell before. It's incredibly correct and ahead of it time like many other things he wrote.

I'm talking about the moderation teams of various major social media platforms, like youtube, facebook, twitter, etc, and the NGOs which train and set the tone for these.

Increasingly, the west has been using the very infrastructure of the internet to censor speech actually. So that argument doesn't hold. Where do you think we will be in 10 years? Do you think this trend is just temporary? Will someone

I'm not talking about speech without consequences, I'm talking about how online plattforms systematically cooperate with certain NGOs to police and suppress speech on topics which the west considers problematic .

The current motto of the western censors is that freedom of speech does not mean freedom of reach. Allow people to speak, but keep their words from reaching any other significant part of the population. I would argue this is actually more

The west censors things just as much as china does nowadays. The difference is that in china the connection to the state is much more clearer, whereas in the west the establishment at large creates pseudo-policy regarding what to be censore

There just needs to be a gamemode which makes the game more about base defense and resource usage in defending the base. Currently you can just spam lasers and win no problem. Imagine something like 7 days of constant biter attacks on all f

I agree that facebook is a great example of tech being dangerous for society, but that it's an example of a blatantly politically correct censorship platform, besides the problems regarding mental/social health caused by using it.
