They may have had it past on through a billion people before they posted it here… Is the most likely answer.

Thanks for sourcing it though!

xenoclast ,

Literally about to do same.

Jensen also is obsessed with how much stuff weighs. So maybe he’d sell shovels by the ton.

xenoclast ,

It’s how you get to the IPO … so yeah

xenoclast ,

PIs are kind of screwed from N* on the higher power end and ESP32 (or similar high power micro controllers) the lower end.

It’s become an underpowered middle player no one needs.

It was good while it lasted. PI3’s for $30 we’re amazing.

Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god

So I thought about this in the shower amd it makes sense to me, like praying and stuff never worked for most people I know, so a direkt link to god gotta be unlikely. That made me conclude that religion is probably fake, no matter if there’s a god or not. Also people speaking to the same god being given a different set of...

It is the ultimate giving up of your personal free will… and they make it a fucking SELLING POINT.

Like door to door lobotomy salesmen.

xenoclast ,

Shit, we have examples or socialized markets that run whole economies. We don’t need to go far… Shit enforcing the current rules equally would change the world…

xenoclast ,

Almost as hyped as the live action Avatar movie!

xenoclast ,

Is it a “top” news service if I’ve never heard of it?

I’ve seen false AI gen stories reported by Reuters itself for pity sake.

xenoclast ,

Just more for the guillotines. Still massively outnumber them.

xenoclast ,

It is an ok day. The first GOOD day will be when any of these clowns face real personal and financial consequences.

Musk is still a billionaire and Trump still pays for nothing, which when it comes down to it, is the same.

xenoclast ,

Yeah I often got tripped up when there are caps but the input should forced to all lower but isn’t. (This was a longstanding bug in reCapcha)

Ps: I’m totally not an AI or anything. Definitely a real person

xenoclast ,

You were correct in the first, but the things you’re describing are product research and development.

All super important, but not exactly what I call science as a socially beneficial activity humans do specifically to learn the truths of the universe.

xenoclast ,

The second, implied part, is that writing it down is for OTHER people to learn from.

So, although I hate the eletist gatekeeping language… I think I agree more with the professional scientist than I do the professional clown.

xenoclast ,

It’s not better here. Sorry. There’s just less people so it might seem that way. Outside is best.

Zelensky: 'Our partners fear that Russia will lose this war' (kyivindependent.com)

President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that Ukraine’s partners “are afraid of Russia losing the war” and would like Kyiv “to win in such a way that Russia does not lose,” Zelensky said in a meeting with journalists attended by the Kyiv Independent....

xenoclast ,

That’s a nice way of calling people helping you cowards for doing it half hearted cuz they’re also afraid of your opponent. I think the message was sent.

He MUST know how much influence Russia has in the halls of power and media of his allies as well.

Ukraine fights a war on MANY fronts. Not all of them with bullets.

xenoclast ,

I grew up with it and still hated it. I know I’m in the minority but I agree with the comment OP, I hate asshole like this.

xenoclast ,

And even more collecting of your data.

xenoclast ,

How about this argument. Just a quality ratio.

2 large delivery pizzas, to the door: $50 all in. $25per

2 good quality frozen pizzas: $12. $6 per

So we could say that delivery is four TIMES better… and based on price/quality alone… they’re equal to frozen.

(I think we all know I’m not proposing an actual serious argument. But the cost difference is wild)

xenoclast ,

Companies selling data don’t tend to be picky who they sell to. Governments and police buy data all the time.

The best part is a government can buy data and and can change the rules on what is illegal.

So, if they decide tomorrow that your innocent behavior is a threat, you’re now a criminal.

xenoclast ,

Step one, be in full control of DNS on the network. Not difficult, but not simple.

xenoclast ,

Pedantry: it putter not potter.

Completely agree. I think it’s a consequence of the late stage capitalist world. We’re way too burned out to have the energy to go on adventures or the money to make it easy to do.

xenoclast ,

Wuuuuuuuut! That’s crazy. I’ve been using it wrong my whole life.

Everything is a lie!

xenoclast ,

Thanks for your informative and less snarky answer. I learned something new today!

xenoclast ,

The backlash is generally against all enshitification.

You get a useful free plan. Make it useless over time to convince people to pay for a plan. Make THAT plan useless over time to make people pay for the more expensive plan… repeat until capitalism ends.

That’s why people care. Eg: see all subscription services ever

xenoclast , (edited )

It’s because we were given a name for something that didn’t have a name before but was everywhere.

This is a great thing. With a definition we can understand and discuss the topic.

Language is magic. Some electrical impulses cause a bunch of electrochemical reactions in a complicated pile of meat to make air vibrate, and at a distance another complicated pile of meat turns the waves into a similar series of electrical impulses.

Of all the unlikely stuff to happen to make use… that’s still just wild…

xenoclast ,

They will if we have anything to do with it.

Sincerely (Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Trump Owners et al)

xenoclast ,

Not the same philosophy, but also a very useful one. Would go hand in hand with OP

xenoclast ,

Pretty sure they’d be fine with it if trillions and trillions didn’t disappear into military and black budgets (ie transferring money to their friends)

xenoclast ,

He and the shareholders still made a ton of money. They will do it again so they can make a ton more money.

He doesn’t care and never will.

xenoclast ,

More like paying to prevent someone from assaulting you and taking all your stuff. Literally all of society is built from this foundation. Monkeys will just fuck each other up.

xenoclast ,

The only responsible thing for the working class to do is to form and maintain stronger unions and unite with all workers.

I’d prefer teaching this kind of thing.

xenoclast ,

Even if that were true (it’s mostly just anti union propaganda… and I’m not even sure this isn’t propaganda bot I’m replying to. )

Until you unionize. It the equivalent of saying “I don’t care enough about anyone else but me to bother. Even if it does hurt me in the long run.”

Unions aren’t a service you pay for like insurance. It’s a thing you do with other people. Together. To protect one another because we’re strong together.

Anti union propaganda focuses on the things it can attack, and distracts you from all the benefits.

xenoclast ,

I’m pretty sure wikipedia knows before the person who died

xenoclast ,

I got that reference. I hear the tombstones

xenoclast ,

Let’s get rid of corporate profits for shareholders. If your actually want to fix the problem. Make it illegal for shareholders to profit more than employees

xenoclast ,

Yeah this map would have much smaller areas. If you broke it down into safe counties or something

xenoclast ,

I think it would prob be a population density map. Higher populations like cities tend to be better at accepting people (massively generalizing)

xenoclast ,

Ones that aren’t directly corporate run and owned by their shareholders just go through more steps to funnel money to the rich

xenoclast ,

I hope, but seems unlikely, that it sterilizes them before they can breed.

xenoclast ,

We were looking… but we can’t (or won’t) enforce our power through threat or use of force. So they can take from us without fear.

xenoclast ,

Nothing that hasn’t left another greedy selfish group in power afterwards, unfortunately.

You can get a decent go of it for a while though.

It’s almost like its humans that are the problem.

xenoclast ,

Yeah he didn’t find the right unmaintained project. There are many many many cs undergrads starting projects that will become unmaintained pretty soon.

xenoclast ,

You didn’t have to be a stable genius to predict that…
