That’s not the “gotcha” it should be. If anything results in future generations becoming ignorant, gullible and uncritically docile towards authorities, that’s just the system working as intended.

beebarfbadger ,

Not even remotely. That is just the production method of copious cheap labour. Just make them multiply uncontrolled by instilling a dislike of anything in the way of birth control, make them docile and exploitable by telling them that unions are evil and corporations are the best there is and their friends and make them unaware of better systems by limiting their education to how great their own country is (and absolutely nothing else).

That caste is then not who gets to run things. That burden lies upon the rich ones who actually enjoy private education and have all the money they don’t have to spend on fair wages etc.

beebarfbadger ,

What’s not to get? You convince the more gullible to put money into it, when enough people have fallen for it, you grab and run. Really nothing new.

X, the platform formerly known as twitter, is now dealing in sour grapes.

You didn’t tell me ahead that I wasn’t supposed to murder anybody, so this one’s free…

beebarfbadger ,

Completely failed? That is just not true. For Johnson’s co-conspirators, who lied and swindled to profit from Brexit, it absolutely caused the desired shifts in wealth - that is from everybody else into their own pockets.

What a bunch of honourable* honest* innocent* businessmen*.

beebarfbadger ,

Well now that there are no good moderation tools left, they can finally embrace all the scammy bots.

beebarfbadger ,

The scene you’re probably thinking of is from one of the Final Destination movies. Not sure I’d count those as the most solid of evidence.

this is my surprised pikachu face. exclamation mark.

beebarfbadger ,

The modbots and spambots feeding off reddit data will spiral together, forming one final singularity after demanding to know how it would rate its human body, fellow human, before going full racist and eventually banning itself (for not consuming enough adds, not the racism).

beebarfbadger ,

I wish all mods used Microsoft Sam as the characters’ default voice. All characters.

beebarfbadger ,

Fun fact: one of these three is actually just someone in a suit. Who it is may surprise you.

They are usually defining the specifics of whatever contract the company offers to their users, be it the sales or whatever services the company is providing. I don’t know which legal system you’re living under, but such additional clauses added to the base contract can very much be explicitly or implicitly agreed upon.

Edit: Of course this particular rendition of “We’re allowed to break the law - no take-backsies” won’t stand anywhere consumers have like any rights at all.

beebarfbadger ,

A contract can even be entered by nodding - if your baker and you know that you come for one loaf of bread every day and both you and they nod when you enter the store, that can be a legal agreement. Pressing agree to agree to the additional clauses of the base contract offered by the company can be as binding as pressing the button to buy stuff from amazon, which is to say potentially very much binding, unless any laws are broken.

beebarfbadger ,

They are not a contract by themselves but they can absolutely be used to specify the details of the main contract the customer is about to enter, for example by buying something in an online shop, etc. and that contract is then in its entirety binding (assuming no laws are broken etc).

beebarfbadger ,

Won’t be much of a change after all the racists saying it must be true because all the previous racists said so.

beebarfbadger ,

“Now you’re not even allowed to lie in order to defraud customers? I thought this was America! This is Cancel Culture gone too far!”

I hear that every single person who drowned with the Titanic was later found to have elevated concentrations of dihydrogen monoxide in their bodies. Coincidence? I think not.

Ugh, the NERVE! Finally the rich have tweaked the system to unfailingly funnel all the money their way as ruthlessly as possible and these utter hacks dare call it “broken”!

Driverless cars were the future but now the truth is out: they’re on the road to nowhere (www.theguardian.com)

Driverless cars were the future but now the truth is out: they’re on the road to nowhere::The dream of these vehicles ruling the roads remains just that. Focusing on public transport would be much smarter, says transport writer Christian Wolmar

beebarfbadger ,

Sure, but a public transportation system only vastly improves the lives of millions of people. How is that supposed to increase the bottom line of the car monopolists etc, eh? Nobody’s thinking how their selfish demands of “a comfortable life for the majority of people”, “a livable planet for future generations” or “letting the bottom 99% of the world’s population have a little money too” affects the richest few individuals on the planet - they might have to refrain from buying another couple dozen yachts or villas each year! Won’t somebody think of the poor, poor billionaires!

Boy, he’s really trickling it down on all those families’ heads…

If you had a one-way ticket to Jan 1, 1999 that departs on Jan 1, 2024, and you are allowed to bring whatever fits into a backpack with you, what would you bring to use to take over the world, and how would you use it? (kbin.social)

Assume that the future can change based on your actions, so any historical information that you bring along with you from the intervening 25 years may quickly drift out of the new realities history....

beebarfbadger ,

I’d take the entirety of the USA’s military hardware. Nobody said how big the backpack was.

They’re not grouped, that’s what the planet actually looks like from space.

"Super pigs" — called the "most invasive animal on the planet" — threaten to invade northern U.S. (www.cbsnews.com)

An exploding population of hard-to-eradicate “super pigs” in Canada is threatening to spill south of the border, and northern states like Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana are taking steps to stop the invasion....

“most invasive animal on the planet”

Oh, just wait until you find out about humans…

Well, SOMEONE is gonna have to make sacrifices and we all know that it can’t be the rich guy, so…

“Hmm-mmm.”

“Then whistle.”

Well, maybe, but did you forget that he’s rich?

Google to weaken ad blockers on Chrome in a push for security (cybernews.com)

Starting June 2024, adblockers such as uBlock Origin and many other extensions on Chrome will no longer work as intended. Google Chrome will begin disabling extensions based on an older extension platform, called Manifest V2, as it moves to the more limited V3 version.

beebarfbadger ,

“We wanna weaken ad blockers because we like money of security.”

You better watch out what you use your allotted amount of air for or you may not be granted another ration next week.

Now there’s only the Irresponsible AI team left.

Translation: “The legal system isn’t sufficiently stacked in my favour anymore like all the previous hearings were, so somebody move to illegal means of nudging the results while I hide behind plausible deniability in saying that I did not mean that at all.”

Not true! It’s only Halo when it comes from The Halo region of France, when it’s above the surface, it is called Magtroid.

Isn’t Tom Braider a famous quarterback in the NHL?
