People here mostly seem to vote on basis of who they think the commenter is - not what they’re saying.

What in my message indicates to you that I didn’t read it?

It’s easy to say as someone with a healthy brain. A blind, deaf or a paralyzed person might feel different once there truly is a way to get your sight back with this technology.

I wonder what you guys thought animal testing is about, if this is somehow surprising to you. This is just another day at the office for the people running these experiments. The issue is not “Elon doing animal testing” but animal testing in itself.

However - if you think we shouldn’t do it then you should also be aware of the tradeoffs. Without this cruelty there’s no modern medicine either. Also, if you complain about this but eat meat then you’re a hypocrite.

I didn’t know such feature even existed

What is the difference exactly? It’s both animal testing. It’s going to be cruel by its very nature. They’re testing on animals because they’re not allowed to test on humans. If they could they would.

Everyone here acting like this is all black and white. Without animal testing there’s no modern medicine. That is a choise we could have made but didn’t. Thousands of animals had to suffer so that millions of people would not. From an utilitairian point of view it’s a no-brainer but it’s still cruel as fuck and there’s no getting around that. Animal testing or no - both leads to individuals suffering unecessarily.

I, for one aren’t willing to take the moral high ground here, because I eat meat ie. take part in the chicken/pig holocaust.

Considering that I get a few new bot followers every day, and has been for probably over a year now, but my total follower count isn’t increasing much, I’m quessing they’re indeed removing these accounts, but new ones just keep popping up. That would pretty much be on par with why he says he’s going to start charging for it.

I didn’t really have an opinion on the Israel/Palestine conflict or about Netanyahu as a person before he was a quest on Lex Fridman’s podcast. He seemed like an extremely disingenuous person, with obviously very politician answers to the questions presented to him. That made me, for the first time, to look into what this conflict is about and though it’s still quite nuanced, my view however isn’t especially favourable to Israel now.

Tubeless tires solves that issue aswell. You can drive over nails and the sealant inside the tire automatically plugs the hole.

Thanks for keeping me up with the latest on Twitter and Elon Musk. I don’t know how I even managed to live back when I went for months without thinking about either of these two.

It’s quite amazing how well sponsorblock works really. I spend a shit ton of time on youtube and I almost never have to mark those sections of the video myself because someone else did it already.

Huh… Worked for me

Many people have also said if you set your location to for example India when signing up for premium you’ll get it basically for free compared to what it’ll cost in europe and it’ll keep working even if your location is elsewhere from there on.

Which loophole is that again?

I might switch from index funds to stock picking if I’m too able to get my money back for every bad investment I make

I could but it’s quite niche community I hang in which is not present here. I’m not active on twitter either but when I feel like posting something that’s where I go to

If he bans adult content or something then I just move elsewhere. Now I just mute everything unrelated in my feed and mark as “not intereste” for all irrelevant suggestions. So far it seems to work well enough

I only post pictures on twitter. I don’t engage in conversations. Ever. That’s what reddit and now Lemmy is for.

I absolutely have not said that

EDIT: apparently I did say that. Don’t know why but I fixed it now

What are you arguing for exactly? Because if it’s that social media is not important then I 100% agree with you but what does that have to do with leaving Twitter for Mastodon?
