Kill your lawn! Be a vegan. The devil is a landlord!

Linux is great actually, and Lemmy is cool.

The person working the drive through at McDonald's should be paid a livable wage.

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca -5 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

Because in the real world we all know no one is paying 20$ for a happy meal.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 hours ago

Some people absolutely will, or for even more than that. Fast food addiction is a serious problem for some. I've seen people spend over a hundred dollars on fast food when they could've gotten a week's worth of better food for that price instead.

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 hours ago

Good thing it doesn't need to be $20, the corporate middleman leeches just need cut out of the equation.

linux desktop and russian propaganda

[–] prex@aussie.zone 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That Lemmy is a worthwhile use of our time?

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 1 points 6 hours ago

That’s the best one right there

AI is untrustworthy and shouldn't be used

I have management talking about copilot usage rates and I hear people casually refer to "what ChatGPT told them" in conversation

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

i actively zone out when anyone higher up than me talks about copilot or chat gpt. i also dressed down a colleague for using chat gpt for a stupid simple task.

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 1 points 6 hours ago

Depends on the subject

[–] Konstant@lemmy.world 58 points 1 day ago (4 children)

The other day on Reddit someone was saying they just fact checked something with ChatGPT.

I’ve met a lot of people who don’t agree with “billionaires shouldn’t exist”

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 57 points 2 days ago (7 children)

The propaganda is so strong with this one. If you talk to someone who owns just about anything, they somehow imagine you're coming after them and their stuff if you even mention anything like taxing the rich, much less getting rid of people who own more than some entire counties.

  • Linux

  • Communism

  • independent social media

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

going on about gaza and palestine. irl nobody cares or knows what that is.

[–] normalexit@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

People care. The world cares. Sounds like you and your social circle doesn't care.

Hmm, it's well enough known in my circles, and I'm the only Lemmy user of the bunch.

"You should totally install Linux, Bro/Sis"

And if you install it often enough you might change from bro to sis /s

Being "Federated" is more than simple connectivity to other sites.

[–] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 31 points 2 days ago (2 children)

"Eat the rich." Appearently people don't think they are tasty outside of Lemmy.
