Little off topic but I just got done cleaning up my friend's dad's estate. He had dementia the last ~5 years of his life. The amount of random fucking subscriptions this senile old dude was paying is mind boggling. We're talk

Reminder that the entire AI industry is loaning itself money to boost revenue. I seriously question any revenue figures that tech companies are reporting right now. Nobody should be believing anything they say at this time. Fraud is rampant

This applies to all areas of life, not just medicine. We trade away our knowledge and skills for convenience. We throw money at doctors so they'll solve the issue. We throw money at plumbers to turn a valve. We throw money at farmers t

Or it'll create an alternative reality where that AI iterates itself into delusion.

I use cloudflare and I block whole countries because the bots and spam are so bad from places like Singapore. Cloudflare makes region blocking very easy.

Heard that before. Keep repeating the script. Short term profit at the expense of long term stability.

Cows mostly. Like 60-75% of all ag land in the US is to grow feed for cows. Mostly in dry environments. This is because the old water rights were distributed on a "use it or lose it" basis which encourages wasteful use.

I think blaming AI isn't quite right. I think the current mentality of "Make every process in life as easy and time-efficient as possible" is the problem. AI is just a tool. What someone does with it is up to them. The curren

No one owning your data isn't any better than everyone owning your data.

Eh, defeatist attitude. It isn't that hard to anonymize and obfuscate your data. The issue is everyone is willing to trade convenience for security. The point of no return is an individual choice.

The only folks using Apple TV in 2026 are like 60+ yrs old. I've literally not seen one in anyone's home for probably 5+ years. And even then nobody used them. Apple TV was one of those products that relatively few people bought b

They absolutely work. I'm a vegan and its insane the number of bots, who the meat industry pays for, that promote really weird anti-vegan ideas on social media. This stuff spreads into real life. I run into folks IRL who repeat the sam

Not only ran a pump n dump, but he had to change laws to do it. Dude literally made it legal to scam folks within days of returning to office. Then he scammed people.

Lol not true at all. Twitter actively promotes hate speech. The other platforms don't do that.

The algorithm will eventually start putting sensationalist shit in your feed. That's the point. It promotes what trends. What trends on twitter is racist far-right misinformation and porn.

Dosage matters. Lots of folks take psilocybin and lsd on a daily basis. Also the weed we smoke today is absolutely nothing like historical cannabis. The potency is hundreds of times higher, depending on what they're breeding for.

I'm not disagreeing but I do want to point out this is the exact thinking that many people think is responsible for the apathy/victim mindset. Perspective is important. Does life happen to you or are you in control of your life? A

This isn't new. People have said this for centuries. You can find people wondering this when the steam engine was invented, when the printing press was invented, etc.

We live in a world where one text can end a friendship because one person can't handle any conflict. No wonder we lack community.

You're missing the point. There is a growing movement that says life is too easy nowadays and we're handicapping our ability to develop coping strategies. Life is incredibly easy nowadays. We have more luxury and access to everyth

Hard disagree. I think we're convinced life is way harder than it is. Life is fucking easy. One push ordering for almost anything. Cushy houses with hvac. We make life hard by buying into the narrative that it's hard and we'r

Not possible when things are 10+ mile apart and a general grocery run takes 3+ hours and you can't carry more than a backpack, so you have to do it multiple times a week.

The even worse part of Flock isn't that they cooperate with the government, it's that there is(or was) basically no security in the service. Cops from one state can/could use flock services from other states. A few cops got c

You could still buy some rad cars into the '10s but you generally had to go looking. The fiesta st is a decent example. An economy car, so very simple, but with a sports package. The only "smart" features, like traction contr

I'm contributing with comedy by making fun of Americans for not realizing the rest of the world caught up and is passing them. A lot of Muricans are blinded by patriotism so it's helpful to make jokes.
