Lemmy users project their toxicity towards Reddit. This place can be quite hostile if you don't echo the 'correct' ideals.

robots sterilizing the human race would be a good thing.

humans are made of meat. meat decays. human minds are the most valuable things in existence, but they aren't built to last. we suffer and experience death and disability and pain, we can't expand our minds or clone ourselves or travel instantly...

...you know what can? machines. slap some more graphics cards in that baby and you can run a bigger model. throw the weights up on HuggingFace. fork that shit!

if machines surpass us, and if they have as much of a soul as we do, we shouldn't feel threatened. we should be happy we're the last generation of organics who have to bear the curse of mortality.

Abortion should be mandatory.

People keep arguing over whether abortion should be legal or not, but my opinion is that it should be forced on everyone whether they want it or not. Late term abortions up to 100 years after birth should also be considered for inclusion in this rule.

One of my favourite activities is finding controversial opinions, then taking an opinion so extreme that it makes everyone else look like a centrist.

Sonic The Hedgehog (Sonic '06) is an absolute gem of a game in its original buggy mess form it released in. The bugs and frustration they cause only add onto the charm.

Also, the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (not SatAM) cartoon is just as good, if not slightly better, than SatAM due to the absolutely goofy atmosphere. Some of the jokes in Adventures were great. Absolutely loved the joke on Sloww Going where they had Tails writing down whatever Sonic said they needed to rebuild a house for a family of sloths and when Sonic goes to look back at what he wrote, it's nonsense and Tails has to remind Sonic that he's only 4½ years old and doesn't know how to write yet.

Saw a video pop up in the incognito mode thing for yt about Tails being a savage and I found a comment that absolutely resonates with why I absolutely LOVE that version of Tails as well and why he's the best version of tails ever. They were saying how his personality really makes him feel like a little kid without a filter. Absolutely the best Tails ever, so I 100% agree with that comment.
