Because AI in this case is the opposite of help, in case Illecors wasn’t clear enough.

It’s almost like it needs a dedicated person to hold its hand as it does your job. I wonder who would be well suited for that task.

Or just a little fun.

It likely doesn’t help that the kids use “AI” as slang for “bullshit”.

Someone heard that we choose our presidents out of the blue section and had a misunderstanding.

You’ll excuse me for being skeptical.

Why would I pour river water into my socks?

Yes, this is true, and I have preached this in the past, but…

They’re not treating it as a cache. Most of these apps don’t function with less ram.

It’s just inefficiencies stacked on inefficiencies. And yeah, they didn’t matter a ton at first, because our hardware was advancing fast enough to handle it. But at some point we should really go back and visit a lot of this stuff.

A 2014 computer should have gotten better at all the basic tasks that existed then, not worse.

The Windows 11 start menu being built on React is a good example. Insanity.

the US continuing to … instigate conflicts between Russia and Ukraine.

You’re kidding, right? Your bias is showing. Right here.

You’re also blind if you just say “America bad” at every opportunity. No, many of the things he’s doing are absolutely not in the interest of the billionaire class. How do you think bringing back measles benefits them?

Some of the dumb ones might think the pressure on the Fed to lower interest rates is good for their bottom line, but they’re idiots.

All of them will suck up to him regardless, for survival. It doesn’t mean they think everything he’s doing is right by them.

And yes, he’s serving some of them, particularly Peter Thiel. But he’s mostly serving Putin and himself.

We have a wealth disparity/capitalism problem. We have a Trump problem. There’s some overlap, yes, but they’re not the same.

And even Hillary isn’t the devil incarnate you think she is. She’d be more content with the status quo than I’d like, and I voted for Bernie over her, but she’s not part of some grand conspiracy to keep the American people down.

hostile to his brand of politics for one reason or another.

Because his brand of “politics” is dumb, destabilizing shit that’s bad for America and Americans. That is what they’re there for, to serve the American people and the Constitution of the United States of America.

Trump only serves himself, Putin, and indirectly, Xi.

Also, did you just link me Trump admin propaganda justifying their firing of anyone not loyal to the furher?

That’s not what Trump has ever meant by the “deep state”.

I mean, the Marshall Plan was benevolent. USAID and similar may make us net beneficial to Africa.

Let’s not talk about South America.

Accurate

Yeah, but dot ml.

… I think they usually do have a coffee shop.

My theory is that they realized it was going to happen whether they liked it or not, and going along with it seemed more profitable than trying to fight it in court.

she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

I haven’t really decided how I feel about this. Is it legit? I could see either opinion. It certainly drives her to make whatever comics that appeal to the masses. They function as an advertisement, and I know how I feel about advertisements.

If I’m curating something that I’d publish, there’s no way in hell I’d include her stuff. Banning it from a platform is a number of steps farther than that, though.

Artists need to make money, and there are certainly projects I appreciate where I’d encourage the artist’s method of making money. Where to find the line between the art as advertising for money and the money as funding for the art is an interesting discussion. You can absolutely tell in her case, but she shows that the line is blurry.

Lying on that form is a crime. The purpose is to actually have a crime committed if they later find you’re affiliated with Al Qaeda.

I watched this episode purely because of this post. One of the better Black Mirror episodes.
