@Strife212 You could do the same by manually calculating a close-enough simulation of the human brain. I don't think this argument holds. There being physical connections doesn't make us automatically conscious
@abookofsymbols This! Talk to the people you are interested in, maybe they will like you back, maybe they won't. But never constrain yourself to some arbitrary categories
@UndecidedMarkus@ManicUCW (well and now apparently that video, I have never in my life seen it and when I asked people to prove harassment, no one brought up anything but the long deleted reddit posts)
@UndecidedMarkus@ManicUCW All I could find is this person making one or two reddit posts about her mistreating the animals, which she apparently believed.
@UndecidedMarkus@ManicUCW All of that ignores that Mikayla was, IIRC, bullied by acquaintances in real life. I think, regardless of the behavior of this person, its a bit silly to pin it on them.
Oh and I have to question what the response would be if the suicide didn't happen.
@UndecidedMarkus@ManicUCW The response after the suicide was completely unhinged, but she was already being attacked with her image being shared around before that, so I see it more as a response to being attacked more so than the suicide itself.
Its interesting to me how much hate Windows 11 is getting.
I do have occasional issues with it, but nothing major. It just kinda works?
I will eventually go to Linux, for many reasons, but I don't feel pressured to do so at this point, because, again, it works
@oh_itsapriltoo Yeah like, man, we all suck. We all struggle. Most of us want to evolve, together, not alone.
The earlier one realises that, the better.
@1ClassyBastard@ABetterWay2A Ok, let's assume its a mental illness for a second: What now? Does this "mental illness" automatically make them a danger to themselves and others?
The answer is no, it does not.
