You see, when referring to a thing like ‘the existence of social media’, in English, the word ‘never’ constrains itself to the time frame of its existence. I know the ambiguity of the first sentence may have confused you, but you could’ve gleaned context from the second sentence.

Glad I could help.

The whole thing is such idiotic masturbation by the exact people who have been stealing, selling and profiting off our data. Now they talk like they created something new when it’s just a super energy intensive computer program.

I destroy old toys and make very gory horror art for fun, they’re not alive and they don’t feel it, I’m not a child and I understand this. LLMs are exactly the same, ones and zeros that feel nothing and aren’t people, we should vehemently avoid anthropomorphizing them.

Man, anthropomorphizing these computer programs is so fucking weird to me. Can’t they just tell the truth? The cost of the amount of energy required to do this exceeds the profits we gain from your personal data.

Fuck Winamp then.

Yeah but

1. pigs love shooting dogs

and

2. dogs don’t generate profit for the top 1%.

I see your Life of Brian reference and I appreciate you.

A broken clock running 6x its speed will also be correct much more often than a stopped clock.

I really like a song that has intro and outro samples and I wanted to know where they were from, so I googled. Google AI promptly informed me that the song has no samples. Guess that settles that.

I have a short list of local places that hire their own drivers and I refuse to order delivery from anywhere else. I’ll pick it up or just miss it altogether. No need to participate in the enshitification of everything.

Honestly, if they killed them and brought us back to restaurants hiring their own delivery drivers I think we’d be better off.

THE solution.

Edit: just cause I didn’t get on that Tesseract cool kids list; I’m saying we should execute CEOs in the street.

Fucking great.

Hell yeah

Absolutely. I have a friend who lives in a cabin all summer and works remotely the entire time.

In a properly urbanized environment owning a car would be both unnecessary and inconvenient. We should strive to properly urbanize our living areas.

Bringing back true suburbs would be good, too. People living a half hour train journey from the city by high speed rail would mean small walkable islands could form in small towns the way they used to.

To the bike tire point, let’s face it, if we replaced every car with a bicycle we would probably reduce the amount of microplastics by a massive amount because a bike tire could never contain the amount of plastic a car tire does, cars have four and weigh a lot more. It’s incomparable, but you compared it so I had to point that out.
