Because those shitty patterns make the platform valuable. It’s about creating investor value, end user be damned.

The point is to keep making non cis folks illegal, the rules are just stepping stones to the ultimate goal of eradication.

If politicians had advisors then how would they justify doing the dumb shit their owners want them to, then they can’t plead ignorance.

But what about me and my overly simplistic world views where there is no room for nuance? Have you thought about that?

That is truly not possible, the cancer of capitalism is too deep in the government for anything to actually get fixed. The only way would be a massive invasive surgery to remove the cancer, or the country collapses and we have to build back up.

Ive seen it happening since I was old enough to follow politics, we have done nothing but make it worse, never taking one step in the direction of positive change, at best we just stop marching towards the cliff edge for a few minutes. I used to think to myself “I hope this shitshow can at least keep going until I’m dead and gone” but its becoming clear that’s not the case. Now its economic collapse or facism or both. I’m fucking embarrassed by my country and more so a large swath of my country men that are just brainless fucking zombies without a single individually formed opinion, enthusiastically celebrating the dying breath of America, deluding themselves to thinking we are actually saving it.

I do not understand how it is not obvious to everyone alive that a system built on endless growth is destined to fail.

It’s more horrifying to watch it from within lol

I disagree. It feels like your making this assumption from the point of view that people using AI to develop turn their whole brain off and let AI take the wheel. Any dev I know using AI uses it as a time saving measure, i.e. advanced autocomplete, or to assist with troubleshooting as a form of advanced search engine. Also you would have no need to give the AI the actual key itself, at most you would give it the title of the variable the key is saved as.

Ohhh that’s a bingo!

That would be a great point if not for the “rabble rabble DEI! rabble rabble Bootstraps!”

Stupid lib!

Most every major company isn’t entrenched in people’s lives as deeply as apple is though. If I want to leave Netflix it’s as easy as switching subscriptions. If I want to leave Apple I need months of migration and multiple product replacements.

Or at least that’s what it looks like to someone who has avoided Apple their whole life, it was apparent to me as a teen that the walled garden was a trap. The iPhone and iPhone 3g where the only and last peices of apple hardware I’ve ever owned.

it sets off “potential bs” alarms

Pretty clear to me, I guess my problem was assuming I was speaking to another adult, and not a child who would react to a made up perception of what I meant instead of the words I actually said. Exactly like the kind of person who just believes every headline they read as long as it aligns to their values.

Just discussing potential.

Interesting, see I would have translated it as

I don’t just believe all of the shit I read on the internet because I don’t have my head a mile up my own ass

But i suppose I’m not fluent in lemming so what do i know.

Pretty narrow vision. Microsoft can suggest hardware for you and charge the seller for the advert.

Wow your chrome is running really slow, try buying new Corsair ddr5 ram available now on amazon

No, but it sets off “potential bs” alarms. It doesn’t matter whether you agree or disagree with it, headlines tend to misrepresent for clicks, this is just the truth.

Schools should really put much more focus on explaining what science is and what it does

Hard agree. The US is currently speed running to third world status and its entirely because of education, and i assume its happening elsewhere based on the rise of conmen in leadership. Anyone who thinks for themself who has ever had a conversation with anyone MAGA on why they believe what they believe, will know that it was just because they were told to believe it. They do not have any sort of internal reasoning, they look to someone that fits their world view of what a leader looks like and then they believe every word that they say. It is the same way most people relate to religion, do not think about it, just have faith.

So when you mix together a wildly de-funded and heavily politicized education system that turns out followers who outsource reasoning to authority figures, with modern American solipsistic culture that allows the worst human beings alive to be seen as role models, then it was always just a matter of time before conmen took the reigns of the country. Anyone who is ever trying to argue their point with reasoning and facts will appear on the defense to any conman that is just riffing innacuracies, and the uneducated masses will see the conman as in control, which will then make them trust that person, it doesn’t go any deeper than that.

Humans are fucking stupid.

The irony of someone calling other people 13 year olds during the most 13 year old take I’ve ever heard lol.

“Are you waiting to receive my limp penis!?”
