Did they also accidentally use it to rate women by sexual appeal without their consent?

That and they’re vicious fuckers, they bite people, unlike horse herds they do an every man for themselves type thing and love kicking people and animals.

Angela Collier had a video about this topic a few years ago that was great, I can’t remember which video it was but it might have been her first generation Grad student video.

Unfortunately I have banking apps and the such, but they work with normal browsers as well so I guess I can just do away with most Google things but it is a pain in the ass to deal with.

Surprise surprise

Fuck that lizard man

Is he talking about non citizens or proving that republicans are bigots yet again?

What is the genetic diversity of the bison? Are they are going to be very inbred soon and die out?

In that link it talked about how 70%+ of millenials and 60 some odd % of Gen Z were pirating last year for at least some of their entertainment, with classic downloading, intercepting streaming from the streaming services for access directly (being the most popular for you get people) and some other forms of piracy.

Maybe, maybe not, but piracy is very much on the rise with all people but younger people in particular.

There is the biggest elephant in the room of enshitification and the rise of piracy again. Why pay for Netflix when Plex or even better jellyfin are available for free/a one time fee for hosting Plex? Why deal with ads and lower quality video when buying/building a NAS costs about the price of a years worth of the top tier steaming platforms and you can control what’s on there not be up to the whims of what the streaming service might have available from other production companies that haven’t set up their own streaming service yet? The fact that neither enshitification nor piracy was mentioned is telling.

There may be a very few who left but the richest conservatives in the world always love living in very liberal areas, you know for entertainment, arts, services, all things they inevitably try to make worse through policy manipulation and raging against those same things they privately enjoy (or are all the gay hookup apps just randomly getting more traffic going during RNC conventions by happenstance?)

How kind.

Not so sure that will happen, Republicans want Newsom to be the Democratic party candidate but since he’s been obviously going for the position since before Covid it has allowed for a lot of his shady shit to make it out and I think that will hurt him bad in the primary.

On the one hand most people in America have to drive, so they do to a certain extent, on the other hand people who own property work or purchase things such as food benefit from the road system even if they don’t drive as grocery stores in their communities get deliveries on roads and the such. Not a fan that our society requires cars for almost everything but knowing how tax dollars are collected and spend are only part of the story, it’s like saying that because you personally don’t want social security or single payer healthcare or public schools you wouldn’t benefit from its implementation; social security means that older people don’t become complete burdens on society dying in the street and the such, single payer healthcare would reduce costs for all medication and increase the number of doctors available to treat people because (one would hope) there would be less paperwork a doctor needed to do between patients at the very least, and public schools having an educated population eans cheaper services that require things like reading comprehension, be it entertainment, engineered goods, medical treatments, etc. You might not use any one or all of those yourself doesn’t mean you don’t benefit from them.

I was thinking the exact same thing

Nah but that’s what he wanted, he is the truest form of tech bro, destroy the world, refuse to accept consequences of his actions, weaseled his way out of the situation and managed to, in the wake of unimaginable human suffering, get more power over people and has a god complex tell me this isn’t some or all the characteristics of people like Peter Theil, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Bill Gates, hell even Tim Cook and Steve Jobs before him. Punishment doesn’t stop this sort of behavior but removing the possibility of someone having that level of control over others is the only way but the richest and most powerful have always sought ways of amassing more power not realizing that that leads to worse off situations for everyone including themselves, Horizon did great encapsulating that trait in Faro, but be it him, the people behind Skynet, the Matrix or whatever other tech dystopia that tech bros seem pathologically unable to not try to make happen in the worst way possible is only the beginning, they seem to forget that even with advanced tech that serves their needs and wants, which won’t help their mental health, the people lower down on the rungs of society have brains, wants and needs, and they have more expertise in all sorts of things than the 1% are except for mass exploitation. This inevitably goes wrong one of a few ways, either everyone dies from the tech, or so many that societal collapse is inevitable not great and even if society survives it can’t functionally reconstitute itself; 2 they win and kill off or supress enough of society that the society becomes less productive and instead of fighting the powerful they flee or don’t participate in wealth generating for the rich were they don’t have to, maybe to rise up again later or the economy of the region just ignores them completely and the government protects themselves from their people more than anything else, or 3rd your revolution with terror campaigns against any and all who can be credibly accused of being part of the former tyrants. In all 3 cases the richer people end up poorer overall because wealth flees or dies in autocracy.

Thank you for the friendly community and I will still try to learn more languages regardless.

Jeez that really sucks.
