  • The download function is the only pro for Netflix (and that’s only aviable for the limited amount of content Netflix has licensed). If I have buffer issues, I can just switch to another website.

    There’s also the ethical aspect. I don’t want to support Hollywood in its current state. I won’t give money to a company that accidentally and occasionally produces a good show while deliberately fucking up many big projects on a large scale because they don’t care about making good content anymore, only money.


  • But that takes significant effort to set up.

    not really

    1. connect to vpn

    2. go to preferred free streaming website

    encourage good quality content to continue to be created.

    that would be true if Netflix actually made good content. right now you give netflix money for a few good shows and an overwhelming amount of slop (that’s even more the case for disney+). if you want to support certain content you like just buy the bluray or go to the cinema

    >many cases of people fleeing from communist countries to capitalist ones

    >far less cases of people fleeing from capitalist countries to live under communism

    most people don’t want communism, that’s why there are no democratic elections in communist countries and wrongthink is persecuted

    It’s not choosing entirey randomly but it isn’t showing us anything that couldn’t have possibly existed.

    No it’s showing us anything the creators of the AI want us to see. It won’t generate ugly people because the creators used much more attractive people to train the AI. Also, you won’t see what your typical Scot looked like in the 1820s, because the creators made the AI change the prompt to add diversity.

    of course it’s possible, but like the AI said, it didn’t generate a pic of Scots from the 1820s, it made a pic of Scots from the 1820s with added diversity. the user didn’t want this but the AI changed the prompt.

    If I wanted a pic of African people from the 1820s I wouldn’t like forced diversity whites in that pic either.
