Oh, not just arrest. I don’t know if it was Ai or not, but the 1y/o who was recently mudered by police was in the car with people falsely accused of shoplifting. The family was told by the courts that it was a “reasonable use of force”.
Wild that largely untrained cops can dole out the death penalty to a bystander for a crime that has little-to-no inherent urgency and would never carry a sentence even a fraction as severe.
I know plenty of people who do have hobbies and all that, and they are plenty losers. Being a loser isn’t about having an empty CV, it’s more of a vibe thing. If you can keep yourself generally clean, have a few neat things you do(you seem to), and can generally keep things together when other people are relying on you then you’re doing great.
The defining traits for losers are people who blame others for all problems(sometimes it really is there fault, but you know what I mean), are generally nasty, and who make people uncomfortable. If someone doesn’t do those things they may or may not be boring, but they won’t be a loser.
What’s a residential school(and associated mass grave) or ten between friends?
I got fired from my last job because I didn’t tell the seniors they were special boys. I very politely told an engineer he had to update his building code and when I eventually had to tell him that I couldn’t work on his project if he wasn’t going to follow the current legal standards it was me who got spoken to about “insubordination”.
The only reason you “can’t” say no is because everyone together believes they can’t and actively, or even simply passively, discourages others from doing it. The only true power that these people have is what is given to them, they aren’t wizards.
I said the bar was very low. When it comes to Ai use I am very clear with everyone where I stand. I’m not out here throwing molotov cocktails at data centres but I’m also not expecting it of anyone else, either. Saying “no” to forced Ai use is not “charging the bastille” and if you’re equating it to that then you can maybe see what I’m talking about.
It really is, though. Ai is not just “a piece of software”, and it’s not even helpful. People can’t stand up against fucking anything these days.
Just don’t use it, and say that you’re doing your job just fine without it. Get your coworkers involved. We have weekends because people fought and died for them and now we can’t even say “no” to vague commands to use Ai? C’mon, there’s gotta be a spine in there somewhere, right?
That’s not his responsibility, and no one would blame him for that. Make Kraft pay for it, or at least make sure everyone knows why the tour had to be cancelled. “Creating jobs” is a bogus used to hold the working class hostage.
There isn’t really any nuance, here. Ed Sheeran is absolutely zero danger, here, it’s not like he’s deep in poverty and has to weigh the morality of being a Walmart security guard against feeding his family. Bro just has to go “you are mad about someone speaking out against obvious genocide and I will not be attaching my name to yours.”
He literally just has to go “ok, fuck you then” and go home. Everyone else did, he’s just a huge loser.
You do have to use them correctly. I know a lot of people who use them irresponsibly, who don’t have the emotional intelligence to understand how the experience is going to be different(and therefore manage their emotional expectations*), and who match with way too many people for basically nothing while denying others over trivial things.
*You should be very into people and they should be into you, but how crushes develop from online dates is simply fundamentally different. You will likely not get the same “oh my god who is that?!” moment from someone you’ve already spoken to and who you know already wanted to go on a date with you.
People keep saying that, but 1) having a degree is not a sign of someone’s general intelligence, not even close, and 2) it absolutely has a greater effect the dumber you are.
Intelligence is curiosity and being able to have a greater degree of nuance in your thinking. It’s being self-aware, and about being able to understand transferable properties. A LOT of people, regardless of education, struggle deeply with those concepts.
“It would be better if you couldn’t tell that you were being lied to, and I’m annoyed that we got caught.”
“We aren’t creative enough to tell this story ourselves.”
That dude’s dumb as rocks, glad they’re facing a consequence.
I stopped paying when they started to openly support Israel. I’m fine with paying a service to maintain itself and Youtube is storing a LOT of high quality video, but giving away millions worth of support to a genocidal state is not something a streaming service’s operating costs should include sooooo fuck ‘em. Ads suck, but I can live with them.
I don’t feel that bad for those women. Like you might have felt bad for Erika Kirk having to be attached to Chuck and the you realized that she was there by choice and is also shitty. Men who vote for Trump need to be lonely.
Hey, so you’re obviously not here for a serious conversation so I’m gunna leave you in your mud puddle by yourself, champ. You probably already feel this way, but you aren’t worth it.
Lemme do some thinking for you: If you have a bunch of aggressive people who say they’re going to harrass men in the women’s restroom, and who do not accept that trans women are women, then you need to be worried about the safety of trans women.
If someone believed that all puppies were the spawn of the devil and said they were going to kill them all on sight you wouldn’t go “well I don’t believe they are the spawn of the devil so obviously there is no danger.”
Except that the damage it’s causing, just so someone can avoid reading a little, goes waaaay beyond a matter of opinion.
I do genuinely think AI is soulless and that alone is enough, but entirely separate of that its implementation is nothing but environment destroying, health fucking, brain sucking, garbage being used to spy on people. It’s all the bad shit that ever Cyberpunk and adjacent media ever has been warning against with none of the cool stuff.
Also it is definitely different than hating photoshop but if that’s where you’re at I’m going to save myself the anyeurism trying to explain it.
Despite them being a little out of wack and a terrible communicator, they do have a point. AI’s main selling point is centered around how it can make everyone more productive as if we actually need even more productivity. We’re all more than productive enough, AI is giving us nothing but unemployment(as those left are told to work harder), more climate destabilization, and reduced quality of life for every single living thing nearby a data centre.
Their first comment was also just plain bad, not gunna defend that at all. They seem kinda loopy.
I live in Québec. I’m anglophone but can speak French and do some things in French, so I also get Youtube ads in French and English. I saw an ad that show the same people speaking French and English, in places where it makes little sense for them to know French, and their accents are just…correct but it doesn’t line up?
