Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My brother grew up to become a homicidal freak. Are violent men common in the general population or was our childhood ROYALLY fucked?
2·6 months agoIf you think about it as “What’s the percentage chance that 1 of 4 family members is a sociopath? What’s the percentage that 2 family members are sociopaths?”, then I think it has to be less than 4%. Genetics make it more likely than 4% * 4%, I think.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Cops Forced to Explain Why AI Generated Police Report Claimed Officer Transformed Into FrogEnglish
1·6 months agoTl;dr the body cam footage picked up on “the princess & the frog” in the background, which distorted the report.
I write this so you don’t have to click on the story. I agree with other posters; this is lazy police work from Utah.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would you do to help a terminally online person?
0·9 months agoIf you didn’t want help, and someone showed up and started doing stuff, saying, “Hey I’m helping,” I doubt most people would want that help. Tl;dr you can only help those that want help or those that are open to it.
I think the best thing you can do is be supportive, invite them out, and showcase the positive aspects of your life & the life you’d want them to have. It’s not showboating / gloating, but it’s including them & offering them what a wider life might look like. When they want to change, you can be present for them in that moment.
Trying to change people can be such a fool’s errand. I’ve tried to do it with a bunch of friends over the last decade. You can’t move people who don’t want to be moved. You can maybe inspire them for more.

In this era, I feel like I’m in the Good Place: it’s impossible to make “good” ethical choices while engaging with modern world. Every day, some platform or artist is found supporting blood money, genocide, unfair labor, treats other artist/collaborators like shit, exploitation… Then we all have to pivot to some obscure alternative with its own issues, lest we be immoral internet users.
I’m so tired of all this shit… /rant
