  • mainstream “journalism” is about rage baiting engagement. Anytime an article has an inflammatory title about what someone says 95% of the time they are being misquoted. In these hundreds of comments I’ve only seen your comment mentioning that. No one questions anything anymore, if its about something they don’t like then it must be true. Even though the futurism article directly links the article its talking about and the full quote/context of what the ceo was saying. I’m not a fan of waymo (and certainly not google’s evil ways) but facts seem to be a distant ancient theory these days. Pitchforks first then think later.

    idk if the author chose that title maybe its futurism itself but a more accurate description would have been something like “our cars are safe but we are also prepared/preparing for when something bad happens”. That doesn’t get clicks tho.







  • Oracle will operate in partnership with the US government on everything from algorithm retraining to application development and source code review, the White House official said. It wasn’t immediately clear what role the government might have in oversight of the app, its algorithm and user data.

    every article just glosses over the fact a major platform that people use to get/share information (with also a lot of personal data collected) is about to be controlled by the US government and a few of the president’s friends. No one is talking about how bad this will be its just "china bad’.

    I only had an account to watch people livestreams concerts, protests, etc… Imagine the amount of suppression and propaganda if something like the L.A riots/free palestine movement happen again but the government controls what you see.













  • I have all notifications turned off except for calls and texts. I tried the bell thing on for every channel i subscribed to on youtube it was absolutely hell. Thats what made me turn it all off in the first place. Every minute there was something new. And since notifications were on i’d also get those unnecessary shit that apps thought I needed to know right this second. Ever since i turned all notifications off my life has been so calm. Especially getting rid of the bubbles on app was so liberating.
