When runaway capitalism is the norm and all the shareholders care about is that bottomline, then they will lean into the dystopia and be blatant about it when nobody is stopping them laughing all the way to the bank.

I had forgotten about that.

And it was good that way.

If I don’t have that song out of my head by tomorrow, I’ll stalk your account, find out your irl id, and send you muffins with raisins.

God, that last one was brilliant. It gave me a flashback.

csolisr ,

Oh and don’t forget the cheeky suckers that explicitly named their nutritional supplement company Soylent Nutrition, Inc.

commie ,

i do like soylent tho. i’m gonna go shake one up rn

utopianrevolt ,

is it better than Huel? Huel tasted awful

commie ,

i drank a lot of huel. none of the flavors were great (for me).

i switched to soylent this month. the “original” flavor is just completely inoffensive. it reminds me of milk. i just hit 1080 kcal on soylent today.

i did get some of the strawberry flavor that mixes into it. that was very good, but i don’t need it every day. i’m happy just to drink the original.

Zetta ,

Soylent is way better than Huel. I’ve been consuming at least a serving of Soylent a day for the past four or five years, I’ve tried a few different brands including huel and they were all significantly worse than Soylent ready to drink or Soylent powder.

Letto ,

In my experience none of them taste great, but if you make them part of your daily flow you get over it pretty quickly. I’ve heard good things about the newer pre-mixed and flavored ones, but I got to a good place with my nutrition a few years ago and stopped using pretty much all meal replacements.

utopianrevolt ,

so I’m curious, do you just not eat any actual food anymore other than Soylent?

commie ,

personally i want to get at least 1000 kcal a day in soylent, so that i’m sure i get SOME of my rdas. otherwise i eat a lot of bean and cheese burritos. they are maybe 1/3 of what i eat besides soylent. the rest is like… whatever my wife makes or fast food.

Letto ,

Exact opposite! I know the language was flowery there but I basically never eat Huel/Soylent anymore

adrian783 ,

its an option, but most ppl do eat food still. simply because they enjoy the taste more.

creditCrazy ,
@creditCrazy@lemmy.world avatar

Honestly I never really got meal replacements like it’s basically a drink so you are still eating your just not chewing so what’s the point is the point to not cook is it that you just don’t want to move your jaw is this just something I can’t comprehend because I’m autistic what

It’s like whoever is offering up these names and convincing them to use them is trying to tell consumers and workers something in the countries they work and operate. That a rental service is literally named Hertz is pretty on the nose even without all the movie culture references.

Ultimate Marvel’s Gregory Stark was supposed to be a caricature. He’s spot on though.

archchan ,

Pretty much. Welcome to the fucking future I guess. There’s no flying cars and green cities and happiness or bloody universal healthcare, instead we have corpos trying to turn us into their consumer slaves and governments turning authoritarian. Just do what you’re told and buy more. Don’t ask questions don’t think just browse TikTok, improve your social credit score, and imprint more ads into your psyche until WW3.

We’re walking into hell with our eyes wide open fuck me it hurts.

There are flying quadcopter taxis testing in Dubai

The only thing really keeping them from flying rich people in from their gated community and landing in the street in front of a restaurant is regulation.

With better battery life they’d be more flexible, but they’re already technically capable, and compact enough.

aidan ,

It’s definitely not all the utopia some thought it would be, but it’s also definitely a lot better than the dystopia some predicted. Also, I personally prefer the internet to flying cars.

efrique ,

or bloody universal healthcare

I guess it depends on where you live. It’s not true of the whole world.

UndefinedIsNotAFunction ,

Murica. Yeehaw.

reksas ,

Also when you try to speak against all this shit people ridicule you and ignore you. If they cant do that easily then its always just apathy and “it is what it is” whining.

Amazon comes from the Greek meaning ‘breastless’. Trans agenda confirmed 💯💯💯

CocaineShark ,

If you think about it, all sorts of fucked up things that are happening now have been portrayed as a bad thing in past media: Virtual words, virtual-fuckin’ land (not 100% sure this one is real, still really hoping its not), misuse of AI, smart houses, where everything is controlled by a remote (which relies on electricity / wi-fi), even stuff like alexa, which is listening to every word you say, at your home…

olutukko ,

Haha yeah the virtual land was true thing. it was a crypto scam if I recall correctly. Everything nowadays is just crypto scam

echodot ,

You can just call it crypto. The scam bit is implied.

what’s the point of selling “virtual land” if it’s practically unlimited anyway? (artificial scarcity?)

Yes absolutely. Virtual land = Yet another NFT

I find it amusing how nobody noticed when Valve changed their name to Valve Corporation ages ago, and people keep referring to it as Valve Software.
