Good point. While Search Engines do have their place and uses. My issue isn't with the idea of the search engine itself but with seo deciding what resualts show up or will never show up regardless of the quality of the source. A lot of it goes against the open internet.

One thing Search engines are good for looking for stores like Aldi's, or Best buy and seeing the type of stuff they sell before you shop there. But if you're looking for anything opinionated, or from real people from *all backgrounds seach engines are becoming less and less of that as they use to be back in the 2008's-2013's

Unlike on Google search, if you see a bot on Lemmy, or Mastodon, you can just block the bot and never see them again. Follow accounts/communities you trust to be reliable for finding info on various topics to eliminate the chances of running into the bots (since you more likely will be looking at your following feed.)

I wish seo would make the web more lively again but I just see them as a lost cause, and the Fediverse as the better future.

This shouldn't had been an issue in Windows 10, having 11 look as slick, but force rebooting to update. Why is it still like this? Why is it forced to auto update? Why doesn't Linux or Chromeos force auto updates? Sure you have to reboot Chromebook but it's manual rebooting not forced auto rebooting.

I feel that using it is important so that more people can feel included in what you're writing about. Say you're writing a news story, you would want as many people to agree as possible and support you. Last thing you want is to upset a minority group because then what happens is that people that aren't monorities that do have influences won't even invest in you.

On the other hand, should someone be forced into using inclusive language? I don't think so. Just don't expect as much respect from as many people.

If Microsoft actually pulls this off I can finally stop using 3rd party firewalls to avoid the forced reboots! Revolutionary on Windows part. Meanwhile on Linux. They already know the assignment. (generally)

Very true. It was their intention. I hope Google can atleast give whites some resonable amount of representation because surely whites should get some amount of playtime not just next to nothing on the ai.

What you got to do for this is,

If no Peertube account

click the link and then go to the original peertube server it is actually hosted on. (Should say on their channel page.)

If you have a Peertube account

This is because not all servers will auto check all channels for videos. But if you subscribe to a channel the videos will all show in your subscriptions no matter what server you are on if you have an account.

I disagree with that, because Barack was actually black so he should be depicted as such despite how people feel because that is how his appearence was.

Let me answer your first question by reversing it back at you If Barack Obama was historocally black should a black person be able to play as him. I believe so. This should be the same for all real life historical figures. If you want more diversity create new characters to fill the void. If the new characters are good people will love them.

In film industry I feel that may be different since a made up story generally in alot of these shows and movies. So if they changed something it isn't the biggest deal to me because it wasn't meant to be taken seriosly rather meant for entertainment.

My argument was actually for real life historical figures to be represented more properly because this isn't just about diversity in jobs and entertainment anymore, your changing real life history regarding governments, militaries and presidents and etc. And this wasn't done just to u.s figures by Gemini.

I do agree ai can make mistakes and isn't perfect. Shouldn't be used as real life context all the time but from Google sometimes you just expect better.

That is probally why. As more and more countries stack up more news tax for the tech companies. People seem to forget that news is optional for them, and shouldn't take that for granted.

Google search doesn't need news, Facebook doesn't need it, why would they want to pay for it?
