drspod@lemmy.mlto Games@lemmy.world•The 'Stop Killing Games' initiative is close to its final deadline, and after that, its leader is understandably done: 'Either the frog hops out of the pot, or it's dead'English42·1 day agoThere aren’t any, thats the point I’m making. Petitions produce sample bias that excludes the opinions of people who don’t want their legal name and home address printed on a document that might get passed around God-knows-where.
drspod@lemmy.mlto Gaming@lemmy.world•The Switch 2's super sluggish LCD screen is 10 times slower than a typical gaming monitor and 100 times slower than an OLED panel according to independent testingEnglish52·2 days agoSo the display can’t actually drive the pixels fast enough to exceed 30fps? Is that what that means?

To sign, you must provide a set of personal data, which is required by the authorities of your country for verification purposes. Specific measures are in place to ensure the protection of your data. See our privacy statement.
Perhaps if signing a petition didn’t require doxxing yourself then more people would sign.
I realize that it’s to prevent fake signatures and allow verification that the signatories are residents of the jurisdiction under petition, but this method inherently creates a sampling bias.
In the same vein as age verification, we need a solution for digital attestation that preserves anonymity and privacy. There are some initiatives in this direction, so perhaps we will get there some day.

Edit: so it was just bullshit then. What a surprise.
Christine Lemmer-Webber made an excellent blog post ~6 months ago titled How Decentralized is Bluesky really?
Give that a read.

Where my nerds at!?
I don’t think this is really a very good allegory. The author has written 835 words and only managed to express that:
- blue food tastes kind of weird
- they’re putting it in everything
- they’re putting up the prices of blue food
- you can’t get normal food even if you want it
It’s not surprising to me that some people didn’t get that it was about AI.
The allegory would work better if:
- production of blue food colouring took so much energy that they were bringing coal power plants back online and exacerbating climate change
- in order to design the blue food colouring, they had to steal every person’s recipe books without permission and regardless of how private that information might be to the owner
- the blue food colouring could spontaneously make a food taste almost like someone’s personal family recipe without their permission
- foods containing the blue food colouring completely lack any expected nutritional content, and when a blue food does contain nutrition it’s just a random accident of the process
- scientific studies of people eating exclusively blue foods show that not only are they malnourished, but their body can no longer process normal foods as efficiently as before.
To make these points, I think the metaphor needs to be something a little bit more complex than “blue food colouring.” Perhaps food made by a food replicator would make for a better example.
