I used to buy a lot more. The combination of getting laid off and only finding a shit job that pays shit (thanks AI) and inflation are the big factors.

Capitalists can go fuck themselves. If they want people to buy they need to pay us.

What a piece of shit.

That money could have gone to so many better causes. I hope he suffers.

That settlement isn’t big enough and the people responsible for the firing aren’t punished enough.

We really should stop letting companies buy each other. In fact we should split the big ones up.

He’s lying. Or bullshitting. Whatever you call it when people say shit without any regard for the truth. Typical conservative slop.

I don’t understand how so many people played final fantasy 7 and the only lesson they seemed to take from the story is “tifa got big titties”

Don’t blame the tool, blame the user 😁

I compare it to snapshot tests a lot. They’re similarly constrained by “good if used wisely” but most people don’t do that. It’s easier to use them extensively. That’s just how people are. They do the easy thing

Paying more money for better results doesn’t fit into the world view of many business decision makers.

How do you feel about people who refuse to use ride-share like Uber because it’s exploiting labor? I don’t want to give them any money because fuck them, but some of my friends say the drivers need money so refusing to use it is only hurting them.

Well, yeah, AI is mostly garbage. Fuck it. Fuck the people pushing it.

Return to office mandates should be climate crimes and the people responsible should be punished appropriately. I want to see these CEO ghouls and souless VPs on the side of the road picking up trash for the rest of their damned lives.

That was what the AI lovers promised. Use AI to hire fewer people. This is not surprising, except in that maybe it’s unexpected the companies using AI didn’t fail yet.

I use keepassxc. It does the job.

I vote in every election. New York has ranked choice for some things now, which is nice. The way judges are picked is pretty bad, though.

I think there’s something with age and lead poisoning that makes people short sighted, easily manipulated with emotional appeals, and short tempered.

Microsoft should never have been allowed to buy LinkedIn. It should be split off.

Telling people “use more ai” was always a profoundly stupid direction. “Ship more stuff faster, use AI if it helps, get paid the same” would be anti-labor but at least sensible.

If selling widgets the customer probably doesn’t care if you used a screwdriver or a drill. They just want their widget. Mandating drill usage is stupid.

Literally everyone saw it coming.

Many people aren’t paying attention. Many people are like pathologically gullible.

The average person just… if you’re smart and capable, imagine being drunk. Being drunk all the time. That’s the baseline. Myopic, impatient, emotional.

Maybe if we had better education and less capitalist hellscape people could be a little better.

why don’t they look into ways that cars might cause fewer injuries instead of abandoning the injured?

I’m pissed they’re repaving the streets near me but they’re not taking the time to make them any safer. No curb extensions or daylighting. Certainly nothing so extreme as a separate bike lane.

They’re just so… unimaginative. There are so many things other than coal and mining people could invest in.
