And everyone who dares criticizing them is obviously antisemitic.

filister , to world in Italy's falling birth rate is a crisis that's only getting worse

This is pretty much what is happening in most developed economies, unfortunately. Because real estate became a very profitable investment, and as a result we are now running out of affordable accommodation.

filister , to technology in Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT

While at the same time they forbid AI generated answers on their website, oh the turntables.

No matter how much you hate China, China is an enormous market and the most important one for a lot of European and American companies.

filister , to technology in Gen Z mostly doesn't care if influencers are actual humans, new study shows

I don’t get how people can watch reality shows but apparently they do.

Plus entertainment is a great control tool. Give people enough entertainment and they will never revolt.

filister , to worldnews in ‘They’re sending a message’: harsh police tactics questioned amid US campus protest crackdowns

You know if they were protesting Russia’s war in Ukraine, police wouldn’t be deployed, and no one would have been accused of racism/antisemitism.

filister , (edited ) to technology in „If companies were to do the right thing, they would lose the most valuable customers on earth, preteen kids”

Yes, I am predicting that at some point society will reach a tipping point when certain parts of the society will start to revolt against the status quo. Because younger generations are really screwed.

I don’t think they can even afford paying their rents and buying their own food by simply working. And this is pushing more and more young people to stay with their parents as long as possible, which ultimately is responsible for lowering birthrate in developed economies. And this puts additional pressure on the social system and weakens the economy of the said country as there would be less working age people for a pensioner.

Social media is creating this social stigma, where everyone pretends to be a better selves and you have a lot of comparing and this of course is unlocking mental diseases. It doesn’t help that now we are living in a looming climate crisis, extreme data collection, and exploitation that benefits very few, creating an even bigger social divide.

And call me sceptical but I think a lot of things will change in the future and probably not for the better. We see what is happening in Gaza and this is just like a sneak peek of a bleak dystopia, where the working class will be controlled by the upper echelon with buzzing drones monitoring their every step, and everything monitored for even the slightest signs of descent and violently crushing them in order to preserve the status quo. We already have something similar in China with their social credit system. Authoritarian governments would become more common across the globe and it will be way harder for their population to overthrow them.

Either this or we will experience a big financial crisis when a lot of people will lose huge chunks of their savings and their livelihoods destroyed. And this will be followed by perhaps full restart or the dystopian future, where we won’t own anything and everything will be loaned to us by huge corpos.

filister , to technology in A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well.

Are there any crashes already involving pedestrians? I really wonder how broken those pedestrians are after the hit. I think the chance to survive a hit from a Cybertruck is minimal.

And I am even surprised that it is allowed on your streets.

Free speech anyone? I am absolutely appalled by this.

filister , to news in Majority of Americans over 50 worry they won't have enough money for retirement: Study

I am not working in the states. I am working in a city where the average salary is 3000€, and rent is 25/sq.m. or ~2.3€/sq.f. and mind you in other places rent/salary is even higher like in Lisbon, which is popular expat and tourists destination

filister , to news in Majority of Americans over 50 worry they won't have enough money for retirement: Study

You know, the ruling class doesn’t want us to be able to afford buying our own places and eventually retiring early. They want us working till we die.

filister , to news in Majority of Americans over 50 worry they won't have enough money for retirement: Study

Not only Americans. Pretty much the whole West, especially people who were unlucky not to buy their own places. My rent is 1600, without bills, my projected rent is 2500. And mind you, I am well above the average.

I have zero trust that when it is time for me to retire I will have money to pay my rent, bills and have something left for food. Because my rent will also increase in price and also the inflation will be 40-60% higher. It is really f****d up situation.
