Compared to Canada it seems kind of absurd to me how much power mayors in the US seem to have

I get where you’re coming from but it’s more about the moderation of this community I think rather than the personal flavour preferences of shitposts.

Like American-centric shitposting, fine, we’re all used to that unfortunately, but straight up US political news is definitely not relevant here and should be removed. Since that doesn’t happen, the community takes to basically wrecking the place for a bit to remind everyone what our goal here is (shit posts and memes). US politics may be shit but there’s a million other places to post that stuff

I do find it annoying but it’s also a bit of a protest against this community getting overrun by Americans ranting about American politics which is also really annoying

That’s how you end up in a big Rideau Street McDonald’s brawl while holding a raccoon at 2am on a Sunday morning in the Byward Market in Ottawa, Ontario Canada

And I’m sorry you still have to think about our vile nation, because unfortunately it’s not done with you yet.

As a Canadian I can’t help but think of the “chuckles I’m in danger” meme 24/7 and it makes me so mad

Happy July 4th to the people who assume everyone on Lemmy is American. Nobody cares about your failed state

I can always tell a violet post before seeing the username

why would there be fireworks? Canada day was 3 days ago

Was about to comment the same thing, what the fuck?

Taking this too seriously for a shitpost community but the people you meet while getting a degree will get you a job (at least in CS if you graduated pre-2020)

At least half of the jobs I’ve had after graduating were referrals and I’ve given plenty of referrals back to people I know

Things as simple as A* pathfinding algorithms used for video game characters or simple if/else chains used to program tic/tac/toe games have been called AI for decades.

LLMs *are" a form of machine learning and artificial intelligence regardless of how shit they are

Edit: to make this more relevant to this post specifically, the OP post is clearly politically motivated whether or not it’s righteous

I live in a town house but I don’t actually have a grassy backyard, just a small shared deck. I’ve filled it with as many planter boxes as I can but last year I was only able to get two tomatoes to grow and both were stolen by squirrels 🥹

From the original email I received from them, it sounded like they have an AI detection tool that would automatically apply the AI tag. They said they’re starting with tagging songs that are 100% generated but will expand that to any AI songs once they have the tech for it

What’s with the call to Jesus part though

Yeah it’s a wild concept (somehow) but heatwaves in places with buildings made to retain heat somehow do worse than places with buildings made to dispel heat

Do you not see how easily “freedom from hate” can be subverted by, I dunno, Zionists?

I mean, looking at the USA kind of shows that “freedom of speech” isn’t really helping ya there either lol

The other response already clarified why its not free but there’s also a $1 USD min spend per month to have an account on their platform meaning it’s $1 USD/mo at minimum. It’s just free if you’re already spending that with them

In Canada its not freedom of speech but rather freedom of expression when the expression doesn’t infringe on others’ freedom from hate which I’m so much happier with. Why the fuck Americans celebrate their freedom to be a nazi or whatever makes absolutely zero sense to me

God forbid a child sees a nipple while ripping through people with chainsaws and automatic firearms 😡

They say if you sail too far you could accidentally find yourself in the USA 🤢
