Yep, (social) media is optimized in fueling your emotions, and well the strongest emotions are negative, so it’s mostly optimized towards that.

Avoiding this, doing something more healthy leads to a better mental (and likely physical as it’s connected) health IMO/IME.

Yeah I think I recently have read here on Lemmy that the amygdala is bigger for MAGA, so I think the opposite is true indeed.

Which would also make more sense, because of all the irrational anxieties those scum has…

Yeah obviously, that’s why I said additionally to the other answers.

I mean downloads basically limited by your bandwidth, usually the highest quality (like blu-ray rip 4k, almost no compression) etc.

But if you don’t have issues, well probably don’t bother.

Another thing if you aren’t using a VPN (which you probably should), they’re safer, as well… they’re private.

Additionally to the other answers, take a look at stremio with Torrentio. A few of my friends use it (I’m using a private tracker), it’s basically as convenient as using Netflix AFAICS.

Don’t wanna be that guy, but: You misspelled Microslop.

It’s probably the biggest contribution against climate change from Trump. Just not what he wanted…

US is liked

Brave assumption, there might be some people outside the US who like them, but I guess that’s true for all countries. I for my part started hating the US, it’s such a bad development for humanity, since capitalism/oligarchy takes over. Even China starts to look good in comparison…

Also:

world stability for a huge portion of the globe

Just LOL. Probably the force that causes the biggest global instability. Do I have to mention Iran as most recent event?

There might’ve been a period where that might’ve been true, but it certainly isn’t anymore.

You will always be better at decisions than an n-dimensional matrix of numbers on an overpriced GPU.

I’d be careful about these claims. Maybe with our current iteration of “attention-based” LLMs, yes. But keep in mind that our way of processing information is strongly limited compared to how much data is fed to these LLMs while training, so they in theory have a lot more foundation to be able to reason about new problems.

We’re vastly more capable at the moment at interpreting our limited view on foreign code, being actually creative, find new ways to reason, yes. Capable developers (open source…) often have seen quite a bit more code than the average developer and are highly skilled, still with just a tiny subset of the code that an LLM has seen.

But say these models improve in creativity and “higher-level of thought” through whatever means (e.g. through more reinforcement learning). Well, let’s just say I’m careful with these claims. These LLMs are already quite a help with stupid boilerplaty code (less so with novel stuff, and writing idiomatic non-redundant code, but compared to 2-3 years ago it’s quite a step already, to the point that they’re actually helpful, disregarding all the hype and obvious marketing strategies of these AI-companies)

Ok, I like that attitude, but could you go into more detail? AFAIK hardware wise the samsung will likely be better in every way I think?

You might’ve heard of it, there’s something that is called water, probably the healthiest you can drink. Otherwise you could eat multiple apples but at some point it gets unhealthy again (still contains quite a bit of fructose…)

Still plenty unhealthy, sugar is absorbed way faster than just eating an apple.

But yeah still more healthy than something that contains HFCS as second ingredient (and thus after water the highest contributing ingredient…)
