18 billion yearly profit last I checked.

Not enough.

Never enough.

No one does that.

Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.

Wouldn’t know, have ublock.

8gb of RAM? What year is this?

The streamlined menu makes it so the line goes pretty fast.

Even when it’s around the building it’ll only take 10 min.

What media is an LLM going to be able to reproduce that I can’t already reproduce with a copy paste?

That critical mass will never come because people don’t feel the data has been stolen from them.

Rather, it’s traded in exchange for whatever online services they use.

And to them it’s a decent trade.

Solution is stop using delivery services.

They are more efficient than pure ICE vehicles though in most situations.

At low speed and city driving the regenerative breaking can make a 30mpg motor into a 50-60 mpg motor.

I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.

You want to get things like this passed, you get a big enough group to just walk around down town in the rich area open carrying and mean mugging everyone.

Make the upper class uncomfortable. You’ll get that passes in no time.

Good. Influencers are a plague.

A lot of people.

I’ll tell you that it’s super nice to be able to watch things with other people in the car while you are all waiting on the car to charge.

Also, you don’t have to hold a phone and the screen is better.

I’m not giving up mobile deposit.

Leave my house? Duck that.

To what end are we bringing it up though?

Is there a point, or is the only point to degrade the actor in some way?

I feel this is one of those situations where I can say ‘You aren’t wrong, but you’re an asshole’ if you are bringing it up without a greater reason.

I don’t think the dude would be ragged on for taking advantage of the opportunity afforded to him.

I think the feature is cool and I’m looking forward to it personally.

Maybe they should have made it opt in, but social features like this on other platforms like discord and stream aren’t, so … eh.

It’s just so hard to see where we transition from here.

We went from a resource economy to a manufacturing economy to a service economy… And now many services are being automated. So what’s next?

I’m in favor of the automation but recognize it’s going to cause pain in the near future.

I’ve seen people tout a ‘creative based economy’, but to be honest LLMs and GANs seen poised to grab that sector before anyone in service can transition to it.

You’d hope all of this would mean an easier life, but so long as capitalism is the name of the game there is zero incentive to spread the benefits among all.

Discrimination against who?
