Definitely. Society is fucked right now because people are brought up to believe that peaceful protest is some sort of societal panacea.

Voting costs you nothing and you should do it, even if it feels like a waste of time. However, going to BLM in 2020 made me realize how pointless being “politically active” is. Nothing will change for the better in the US unless people arm themselves and strike fear into the state itself.
Voting seems to be doing fuck-all if I’m being perfectly honest. We need to stop coasting to a stop and slam on the brakes.
That takes an amount of cunning and resources that few people have. I think most people with the ability to do that benefit from the current status quo.
We need guns because we’ll never disarm the state’s goons.
The illusion of democracy has entirely worn off. When are we taking to the streets with guns?
Yeah, I wouldn’t have gotten dinner as a kid if I was that picky.
That’s exactly what it is.
You can only cut out so many people in so many industries before the economy collapses. I’d like to see what it would look like if like 30% of people lost their careers to AI. Maybe there would finally be a push for UBI and/or stronger tax laws for large corporations.
When I worked there, they wouldn’t assign me tasks and then blamed me when nothing got done.
The bill, passed by the state’s Senate last month and set for a vote from its general assembly in August, requires AI groups in California to guarantee to a newly created state body that they will not develop models with “a hazardous capability,” such as creating biological or nuclear weapons or aiding cyber security attacks.
I’ll get right back to my AI-powered nuclear weapons program after I finish adding glue to my AI-developed pizza sauce.
Anti-AI people tend to be grifters just as much as the people who think AI (in it’s current form) will solve all our problems.
World is run like Reddit was 5 years ago. LML is actually a shithole run by tankies. Two different levels of shitty.
LW needs to defederate from LML so that they aren’t being spoonfed users from the biggest instance.
It’s just passing the buck for their service. They should be solely responsible for lockouts on their service.
I tried to report a pedo to them once and they simply could not have given less of a shit.
Too busy abusing their mod powers to enforce their political views in most communities.
This is throwing a blanket over the problem. When the mods of a news community allow bait articles to stay up because they (presumably) further their views, it should be called out as a problem.
I’ll be the first to say that Apple should burn in a fire, and that this update fiasco is something that they should pay dearly for. However, there is also a computer literacy issue here where people think that deleting files actually removes the data from the hard drive. You need specialized tools to scrub deleted data off of a hard drive, and it can take a long time, depending on the amount of space being scrubbed.
