who’s willing to bet this AI will mysteriously label nonwhite people as suspicious more often?

Israel-based Corsight AI

of course.

oooh sorry 😅

Queue T, pronounced like “cutie”

yes, mastodon absolutely has a white supremacy problem.

and so does lemmy.

the USA (and canada, and australia, and new zealand, and many more) are settler colonial states that were born out of mass genocide dictated by white supremacist rhetoric.

these states are white supremacist to their core

the fascists of the fedi don’t roam free on the wider network, they harass in secret, usually in DMs or “followers only” posts

there’s also a problem with subtle white supremacy, where Black people (and other POC, but mostly Black people) will get piles and piles of harassment that’s totally unrelated to being Black you see, of course, but its not happening to white people for some bizarre reason!! (see also: the many cases involving TheBadSpace where any Black person who was ever so slightly in favor of Ro and their work would get a fuckton of harassment)

(the last one is present on pretty much all social media, be it pre-Musk Twitter, Bluesky or Tumblr, but im told that it’s especially bad on the fedi)

okay, I was gonna say that it’s not that big of a deal because you can just slightly lift it when you want to turn it on (or just slide your finder under it, if they’re small enough) but judging by that photo, it seems like the power button is at the back of the computer? whyyyy??

anyways, im more impressed by the fact that their new shiny mouse who finally uses USB-C still has the charging port at the bottom. im starting to think they think it’s a good design???

the USA is not a “flawed democracy”, its an authoritarian regime that imposes its will on the world through imperialistic means

I don’t care to know if it’s better or worse than the chinese government, both are awful and both will get rid of you if they find you to be enough of a threat. fuck em both. fuck all governments really

opera sure, but at that point, any proprietary software can be used as an attack vector by the government of the country the software is made in, that’s not specific to china

i don’t see why chrome or safari should be considered more trustworthy than opera just because they aren’t made in china

the chinese government isn’t behind every software that’s made in china lol

like yea, opera is spyware, but so are chrome, safari and edge, and none of these are made in china

what does the browser being Chinese have to do with anything?

depends on the OS!

DuckDuckGo uses the default rendering engine of whatever OS you use it on, so webkit (also used by safari) on macOS and iOS and blink (also used by edge and chrome) on windows and android

even if it uses the same rendering engine on some platforms, it’s not based on chromium, so it’s not a chromium browser

that’s true, but platforms like rumble were created to be homes to the far right. we shouldn’t encourage their existence.

fuck off out of here with your nazi platforms

iirc they tried to become a tiktok clone, no idea how it went but considering i never see anyone talk about it i doubt it went very well

i wonder if it’s actually possible to install linux on a machine without a CPU

tiktok is a platform to share information and communicate, yes

which is why the french government banned it in Kanaky (“new caledonia”) during the protests there, as it was a tool of communication used by the protesters

yea, but that gives you less info

this way, you can’t really differentiate from a feature that people want, but not as a priority, VS a feature that people don’t want ever

i don’t like how they used “want least”, it means three very different things:

• i want this but it’s not the thing i want the most
• i don’t care for this
• oh god fuck no
