He will probably be back in a few days.

I have paid for it since it started so have to say yes. Never going back to Google.

Other search engines have much worse results.

Yeah. I remember reading about Adam Smith in school, and it made perfect sense then. But after seeing the actual world, it seems it just falls apart.

I dont understand… Its describing what android does. How can that be rage bait?

Nobody will rage over any of this. Its common knowledge already. Its the same thing that has been discussed for years.

Are they? I see monopolies everywhere and they seem super efficient for bringing in billions of dollars to the owners, which in turn becomes incredibly powerful and influencial people. Their decisions affect the entire planet now.

What is the definition of an efficient market?

Just watch Star Trek Enterprise instead… :)

There is no solution i think. The entire economic system is about creating those imbalances. In other words, monopolies are the end goal of capitalism, for the companies.

I mean, unless you want to constrain unlimited capitalism but America is not about that. Europe is doing that.

The rich people in America now are practically running the country and its decisions. I dont think there is a solution when people have become that powerful and rich.

I actually dont think its gonna crash. People here disagree, but im used to that. Still think it wont.

I will just come by your house, asking for 1000 dollars, every morning and evening, until you give it to me then.

Easiest solution is to give me the money, man.

We are in it already. Its an information and psy-ops war. Propaganda, fear, manipulation, controlling tech platforms, making people fight eachother over race, gender, whatever.

This is why everyone feels anxious.

Its not going to be a day when we see on the news that we are in a world war. Its ongoing and quiet.

History books may say that it started around 9/11, but depends on who writes the history…

I honestly dont know much about what they do these days. Maybe they are peaceful now.

For me its 100% of games, but sure, havent tried all games that exist…

Just look at the stuff people say on Lemmy, to someone they will never even meet, ever.

Why do we even leave comments here. Just total strangers. And yet people care very much about what others say.

I hope Nvidia stock drops 10% so I can buy more.

Actually its so high up now, I think losing 10% isnt enough for it to look like a good buy.

Must have missed a “dont” on his keyboard.

Yeah.

I have mixed feelings about it. How would the world look if it was China or Russia that managed to do that? How would Europe look?

I have so much western propaganda in me, that i cant judge how Russia or China would be. But looking at their current actions, its hard to see them being peaceful. America is also not peaceful though.

Making Trump realize his mistakes? Yeah, somehow I dont see that happening…

Because they are too powerful as an enemy. If they were the size of denmark, they wouldnt get away with anything.

The entire economy of the western world is also extreamly connected to the US. Our pension funds invest in their tech stocks, our financial systems use the dollar… And a lot more things that i dont even know.

America is pretty much running the western world. Like it or not. :/

They also spent almost all their money on weapons and high tech support systems. Their “defence” budget is larger than entire Europe.

Just look at these numbers. America, almost 1000 billion dollars. China, 300 billion, Russia 150 billion, everyone else much much less.

Its a crazy country.

Why does it matter how the discussion evolved? I dont think my opinion will change based on that… Or what am i missing.

I think ICE is the scariest thing the US has done in decades. The online world is not even important compared to the evil stuff they are doing.

It just shows a mentality in Trump that is similar to Hitler. Also that he murders people on Venezuelas boats without any trial or legal actions. Just murders them.

So yeah. I will actually move my stuff away from aws even. I dont want any US in my life.
