Nguyen Hoa Binh translates roughly to "Nguyen Flower Troops", lol. It should be Nguyễn Hòa Bình. It's kinda like mixing up "Steve" and "steed" in English.

Exactly what I mean. There is zero organizing going on for PSL in this area, so it doesn't feel nearly as important to push for a socialist vote compared to other issues, like ranked choice voting and cannabis legalization.

Yeah, she's been on my radar and I've heard some pretty good ideas and beliefs espoused by her and her running mate. Building leftist movements in a deep-red state is very much a "step lightly" action though, so I have worries that any overt socialist growth here will mean more attempted attacks on pride festivals by neo-nazis, and such. Hell, even mention of "antifa" brings out the crazies to roam the streets with rifles.

This is the #1 reason I have a hard time considering voting for Kamala in a non-swing state. We've got ranked choice voting in the ballot, so I'll definitely be voting, but idk if I'll cast a presidential vote or not.

I don't endorse her, so why should I vote like it?

"But I NEEEEEEEEED to play my games on 164x AA, ultra textures, unlimited render distance, no optimization, 900 fps (on a 60 fps 720p monitor) MOOOOOMMMM!!!"

That's how I hear every excuse for a recent Nvidia purchase.

Softcore gilf porn created by an AI to sell state lottery tickets wasn't on my cards for 2024, but here we are.

According to People Magazine it might be worth 5 or 6 figures, or just $45.

I'm not sure why, but you seem to have posted this yesterday but it didn't show up until an hour ago. Your instance may be having some issues.

I do get where you're coming from with all that, but the act of going to therapy itself is an achievement a patient can benefit from, and should be considered from the start. If that truly isn't possible for someone, voice calls from a real therapist are a reasonable next step.

Also, the original question was, "Can AI replace therapists?". I can see some meaningful benefits coming from an AI assisting a therapist, but that's not what I was getting at. AI alone really just feels like a bandaid on a bullet wound, when applying pressure or a tourniquet is also available.

I think there's a good chance people will leave once Lemmy integrates with Threads. So if you time things wisely, you can probably get a good base of users to swap their coms to Sublinks.

What's your planned policy for karma? I know users hated it, but as a reddit mod I found it super useful to determine between a misinformed user and a troll. If your plan for mod tools is as good as you're saying, I wouldn't mind going back to modding.

CSAM is still unfortunately an issue on Lemmy. Just yesterday I had to contact an admin of the 2nd largest instance directly to get a post removed that had been up for several hours. Worst of all, it had more upvotes than downvotes. I do applaud the admin for taking action the minute I notified them, but it should never have been able to get that far.

Also, some of the issues involving Lemmy developers really remind me of major Minecraft servers back in the day lol. There's just an inability for the "helpers" to do much problem solving because of the lack of tools, and absolute reliance on the person at the top to take action. Even then, the person at the top doesn't always have the skill set necessary to solve the issues that arise.

I look forward to seeing how Sublinks goes, but without a good reason for users to migrate it could be dead on arrival.

“Traditional therapy requires me to physically go to a place, to drive, eat, get dressed, deal with people,”

YES! Those are the things therapy for anxiety and depression is supposed to help you with! If the AI "Therapist" won't help with those problems, it's not there to actually help you.

Eating, getting dressed, and talking with real people are all good things for your mental health. Typing on a keyboard doesn't help, otherwise we'd be the least depressed generation ever.

That's pure speculation on your part.

Like another person said, the "young girl" on the toilet looks to be a woman well into her 20s.
