          I think they’re suggesting AI for when regex doesn’t work because “elon” doesn’t appear anywhere in the post despite being the image subject matter

      How do I go about blocking posts with particular words in the title? There’s some topics I’m sick of seeing.

        idk how it works in the browser or in other launchers but i use Boost and it’s settings -> blocks and filters -> muted words

        my personal block list is there for my mental health and sanity and includes: musk, elon, trump, donald, genocide, isreal, palestine.

        i still see posts that simply ommit any of the keywords in the title, but there’s significantly less of them, which is honestly perfect

            it truly is. nature never imagined us having access to all the world’s atrocities within the reach of our hand 24/7. empathy is supposed to make us bond within our little tribes, not get bombarded with words of death and misery across the globe

      I think the clear worst example is when joe rogan said “this guy saved us” about musk. Not even “this guy will save us” - straight up imagining that musk has already done something heroic.

    Actually lethal dose of cringe here. I cannot fathom putting something like this out into the world unapologetically.

    It’s funny watching people do the same thing they did with Trump where they put him into imagery where he’s ripped and god-like. The reality is that Elon looks closer to fucking Baron Harkonnen.

      Set up post filters,
      block all posts with the words Elon and Trump in em.

      Here’s a guide for Eternity which I’ve written:
      https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/6091026

      Won’t get rid of all the Elon/Musk spam,
      but I’d say about 90% which is already a huge improvement.

      Also blocking the news communities does wonders for mental health.
      They benefit financially from feeding negative content, since research pointed out that those articles generate more ad clicks, while they don’t give a damn about what it does to your mental health.

    I agree with what you said, but, you’re literally using his social media site and most likely paying for that blue checkmark. No offense.

      Paying Elon a subscription for a dumb icon and being a priority reply guy is loser shit. Full offense.

        Elon could do that too, though. Some dude invents it and just change the inventors name to “Elon” and bobs-your-uncle. It worked for PayPal, SpaceX, xitter, Tesla, and etc.

    J. D.: [as Robin in a daydream] Holy inferiority complex, Batman! How low is my self esteem that I’m the sidekick in my own fantasy?

    Turk: [as Batman] It could be worse, Robin. You could be Alfred the butler.

    Cringe on mains for a dude who would feed you to a woodchipper if it winked at him.

    Tell you what, nobody’s ever been this impressed with Elon. Everyone knows he’d grab a monkey by the tit. You only flatter him like this if you want something, and I hope the knowledge haunts him.

      You can’t leave me hanging here, man. While I don’t doubt for a second that Elon “would grab a monkey by the tit”, I need to know what that phrase means to you…
