Woah did you just make that up

I mean, fuck the profitability. What about its massive toll on our already crumbling climate? What about its hallucinations that were told by the massively powerful companies (currently, anyway) to just not worry about? What about the promise of it “revolutionizing” industries (corporate speak for fucking workers in new and exciting ways), what about the paradigm solidifying nature of this tech that they keep lying to us about being a democratizing super tool?

Everything about this shit is trouble because of the world it was built into. This type of tech (even though most of its capabilities and uses are lies) in the hands of the people it’s in will only serve the rich and gobble up resources when we need to be scaling back our consumption. Instead, that endless investment is fueling our climate collapse.

Fuck this LLM bullshit. It’s not for us. It will only hurt us in this timeline.

It’s a great story, and one of my favorites—I’m still replaying it. But I think the best story ever told through a video game is RDR2. But those are my two favorite games, so you really can’t go wrong either way.

I don’t think that’s actually true. Have the metrics for what we consider poverty changed and adapted with inflation and the perfecting of corporate wealth hoarding? “Poverty” is an ambiguous term, and relative poverty is real. That doesn’t show in a standard-line “poverty” metric. What was considered “extreme poverty” is the lowest, but that’s people living on under $1.90/day. I couldn’t even find information on that metric being updated to reflect the current high inflation and profit-explosion landscape.

Also: if you technically pull people out of poverty by outsourcing to the lowest paying, least labor regulated parts of the world, is the fact that extreme poverty went away in those areas even a good thing?

Why does this headline distance itself from the actual issue? “Increasingly in jeopardy?” How about “IDF ramps up terror spree after opening fire on UN Peacekeepers, Echoing Rwandan Genocide”

An unused-since-the-pandemic office building sold in midtown for $8M. If this fucking incompetent govt had any sense whatsoever, they would buy one of those unused office spaces and convert it into a mid/high rise shelter. They would save a lot of money but even more people. But they don’t want to think this is permanent. But this is is only getting started, when the global south really starts ramping up its uninhabitability, we will need to get way more creative.

lol kinda off topic but holy shit they could not have more pointedly made an unflattering comparison in those side by side photos if they tried the rest of their lives. Hilarious.

Wasn’t she like 17 at the time

Let the death of Saburo Arasaka be a lesson to us all: even 150+ year old bastards can get choked the fuck out

Hey now, two things can’t be true at once. It’s 2024. Israel can’t be committing genocide WHILE Hamas is a brutal fundamentalist regime. What are you expecting, some kind of nuance? Pfft.

These surgeons were moving fast, I can see it

Everybody was limb-fu cutting (hiya!)

Those cats were fast as lightning (hiya!)

[McDonalds] said it cares “deeply” about all employees and promised that - working with franchisees - it would “play our part alongside government, NGOs [Non-governmental organisations] and wider society to help combat the evils of modern slavery”.

What fucking empty fucking tripe. They couldn’t give half a fuck. Burn all corps to the fuckin ground.

Is that still true? Like, as in, updated in the past year-to-the-last-few-months? War (even though they’re not calling it war) is rising in many places.

What’s the need for private launch capabilities? Private = capitalist. I don’t see much good in capitalist ventures.

Didn’t people’s lackluster interest in the first one and the pitiful sales numbers convey that we don’t really give a shit?

Dude, the casting in Dark absolutely blew my fuckin mind, choom. I don’t want to spoil the plot in the seasons after the first by telling people who haven’t seen it what I mean, but if you’ve seen it you know exactly what I mean.
