Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I’m gonna be pretty upset.
A typical bike-riding leftist urbanite who also happens to be a hockey-crazy Western Canadian.

I think this is a good enough reason to actually put in some effort to phase out ipv4 and dhcp. There shouldn’t be a way for some random node on the network to tell my node what device to route traffic over. Stateless ipv6 for the win.
I kinda feel bad for the kid. I would absolutely hate if someone tried to use me as an excuse to get out of a huge mess of their own making. Sure, it sucks to not have your family there, but it’s not by the judge being “evil”. Trump engaged in criminal behaviour and that’s fully on him.
This might even be a good thing, now Barron can do one thing in his life without having his unscrupulous father show up and cause a disturbance.
Sucks that we live in the one timeline where AI is guaranteed to become an agent of coercion and exploitation, and do a better job than any human at optimizing the system of inequality.
Trump’s writing style is inching dangerously close to Time Cube territory…
Call me traditional, but I find regular AUR to be chaotic enough.
Glad Apple and Google are getting the boot, but you can be certain the best interests of the consumer were not part of the consideration.
For the record, I’m not super worried about AI taking over because there’s very little an AI can do to affect the real world.
Giving them guns and telling them to shoot whoever they want changes things a bit.
I don’t think an algorithm is responsible for the fact that most sane people are generally against genocide. People being pro-Palestine in this specific situation is a humanitarian response and should not be causing any amount of concern because it is the morally correct position here.
HOWEVER, the fact that we just witnessed the fucking letter to america go viral on tiktok, wherein a soul crushing amount of people publicly stated they agree with a fucking jihadist manifesto, is cause for a massive amount of concern. Tiktok definitely needs to face consequences for letting that happen. We also can’t excuse the audience for that type of behaviour. Whether it came from a deliberate propaganda campaign, or a sketchy algorithm, or just mass stupidity, audience members need to be better. If you read the letter to america and you think bin laden was right, you’re a moron, and you’re contributing to the problem.
You don’t have to vote, don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.
Why does it sound like he’s got a mountain of fake ballots sitting in a warehouse that he’s gonna drop from a blimp or some shit.
What this story reveals is the stunning level of ignorance amongst Americans at large. This is a bona fide fascist manifesto, published by the handlers of the current leading presidential candidate, over a year ago. Nothing rattles me to my core quite like being confronted by the harsh reality that a lot of people out there are just going about their lives like everything is fine.
These are the people we need to organize with in order to ― at this point ― basically survive, so I’m very glad something was able to spur them into some level of action before election day.
That said, and please excuse the momentary lapse into doomerism, but if we have to rely on Hollywood and celebrity culture to bring something of this magnitude into public awareness, we might be more thoroughly cooked than it was previously thought to be possible.
