AI discussion, vaccines
As a server mod, there are real, obvious reasons you'd want to ban AI-generated content. And yet a lot of the no-AI rules I've seen in Discord, Mastodon, and Reddit feel like they have an anti-technological undercurrent to them, built more on fear of the unknown than actual understanding.
It reminds me of how people distrust processed foods, not for the sugar and salt content, but because they can't pronounce the names of the ingredients. There's a lot of overlap between that mindset and the whole vaccines-causing-autism crowd.
I'm afraid that reflexive, unthinking reactions to AI could cause anti-technology attitudes that hurt accessibility for people who depend on technology in their day-to-day lives.
If you like football, and you're not Canadian, you can just go to cfl.ca and watch the Grey Cup right now. You just need to give them an email address - I don't think it even has to be a real one

I once saw a post from someone I followed saying "since you are on Mastodon, you agree that..." - and I immediately unfollowed that person. I'm not on Mastodon and even if I were, I resent the assumption that the software I use (not even the server, the software!!) defines my cultural values.
YouTube Premium tip: the Premium subscription is tied to your Google account, not your YouTube brand account - so if your brand account is tied to more than one Google account, make sure your YouTube apps are logged into the one with the subscription, and not the one without.
Anyone know how to keep Discord from automatically adding me to the servers of people I back on Patreon? Just because I want to support their work doesn't mean I want to engage with their other followers in such an intimate setting
You know, if I asked someone who was a native speaker of, say, Chinese who was learning the Latin alphabet for the first time, I bet they would say that the Loco-Motion is easier

I just accidentally searched ddg for "alignment char" and got information on how to align C char arrays
I didn't realize that Pixelfed put "This post may contain sensitive content" whenever someone's reply had a CW. I thought they were just saying that as a meme
