I did some analysis of the modlog and found this:
Ok, bigger instances ban more often. Not surprising, because they have more communities and more users and more trouble. But hang on, dbzer0 isn’t a very big instance. What happens if we do a ratio of bans vs number of users?
Ok, so lemmy.ml, dbzer0 and pawb are issue an outsized amount of bans for the number of users they have… But surely the number of communities the instance hosts is going to mean they have to ban more? Bans are used to moderate communities, not just to shield their user-base from the outside. Let’s look at the number of bans per community hosted:
Seems like dbzer0 really loves to ban. Even more than the marxists and the furries! What is it about dbzer0 that makes them such prolific banners?
Raw-ish numbers and calculations are in this spreadsheet if anyone wants to make their own charts.
Oh please, I would love to see you try and provide your source for that. But, of course, you don’t have one, because you never bothered to do any actual reading on the subject. You’ve just read a few pop-sci headlines on Reddit and assumed that you’re such a smart boy you don’t need to do the reading
Yeah? Like the proof and evidence you provided for you position that there’s something inherently special about biological systems that makes them uniquely able to create consciousness that can never be replicated by computers. Like, this is literally just vitalism, which has been debunked for two hundred years
Provide evidence for your position. You made the claim, I said it’s fucking stupid because there’s no evidence and it’s fucking stupid. Provide evidence. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without consideration. Provide evidence for your stupid fucking position.
You first. Provide your evidence that only biological systems are physically capable of generating consciousness.
I didn’t make that claim. And my evidence would be that literally only humans are capable of contemplating consciousness. Provide evidence of your claim or we can ask collectively dismiss it as the obvious bullshit it is.
Lol. Why lie about something anyone can go and check to see that you’re lying about
Your reading comprehension is on par with the rest of your comprehension.
Provide evidence of your claim or shut the ever loving fuck up. Provide literally any empirical evidence.
You first. Provide your evidence that only biological systems are physically capable of generating consciousness.
