That is a very poor equivalence.

Powertools and machinery still require knowledge on how to do the work properly, account for future maintenance, test for leaks, etc.

Which is not what everyone is trying to do with “AI”. The “tool” is supposed to replace all necessity of trained and knowleadgeable workers and at some point the workers themselves.

Brave should not be recommended under any light. Telemetry, their own advertising, crypto, data mining, etc. I used it for some time and I do not recommend it.

So, essentially, the screws are being turned, only slower.

How come? The way you’re explaining it, it seems the situation is being exagerated.

You’re referring to the 24h waiting window.

But what is being stressed is that no unregistered developer will be able to supply software for Android. The people behind NewPipe are adamant on not complying, hence, the program ceasing to function on registered devices.

A slight high-jack to your post: NewPipe will stop working with the Google lockdown in September.

I personally think it will be a plus for me, as I keep YT open too much time but for those who rely on it for entertainment, info and whatnot, what alternatives will remain?

Censorship but it gets renamed as “shame”.

There are musicians that do go to extremes with jargon and swearing but nonetheless those are words. Words convey meaning, which convey ideas and experiences.

Collectivelly, there should be no need to worry if a song is “kid friendly”. Parents, adults, listening to such music should teach children those words are valid in that context but not valid in others.

Education is better than censorship.

You can control the show, not the audience.

The cop was trained. The other guy developed those skills in the street. That deserves respect.

The biker has obvious skill - misused, unfortunately - but the passenger has it too and if that wasn’t the case the chase would have ended quickly and with horrible consequences.

But chases like these are dangerous, especially for bystanders. Any car driver could had panicked and swerve the wrong way and ram any of the bikes, other cars or pedestrians.

Finally. Took long enough.

Off the top of my head, I can answer the phone in half a dozen different ways in my language. And that is without going into rude or strange words for older people.

I want my diversity of options.

American is not a language. English, on the other hand…

Which one? The USofA as no official language. And apparently English is not even the most spoken language in it, by some recent surveys.

Should we make Italian the official language for telephones? It was an italian that invented the technology that gave rise to it. No? Doesn’t really make much sense, does it? Or perhaps chinese should be the only writen language. After all, they did invent paper and popularized it as a writing medium.

The american armed forces got to create the concept and kickstart it but the moment the technology is out, it belongs to no one and every one. Let’s all be collectively happy for that.

The machines are better at repeating a task with no down time but even then quality will degrade. That is why quality verification exists.

Hand made cars - or anything, by extension - are so expensive because of the human attention going into it. A specialized worker, technician, engineer, etc, makes sure their job is the best because they are specialists at what they do.

The main reasoning revolves around mandating roles through “education”. Education has always been a way to elevate individuals and, by extension, civilization. Education here is used as a locking mechanism, not a liberation one.

That is why I understand it as a civilization regress.

It is a system that allows for the flow of wealth to pool around a very reduced number of individuals, built on debt and exploitation.

It is a broken, failed and failling system and the proof is plenty and ubiquous, unless we are to deny the last twenty years, just to keep within recent times, where several unprecedented economic disasters took place that have led to lowering living standards and the rise of personal fortunes to never before registered levels, while nations go into mounting debt.

That is asinine.

But this was not about economics but education.

Where does your reasoning goes to force an outdated and regressive doctrine to individuals, particularly women? And why are men exempt of similar considerations, apparently?

Capitalism is as failed of an economic model as what is coloquially called “communism”, associated with the brutal authoritarian regimes that rose in the late USSR, China, etc.

Basic reasoning is enough to find flaws in your opinion.

As living standards rise, fertility rates drop. This is a demonstrated reality throughout every nation. Birth rates remain high where gender roles are enforced - usually through religious belief - and poverty is generalized.

Unless you intend to enforce poverty, ignorance or both, what you propose is a civilizational regress, not advancement.

This is an unpopular opinion.

Congratulations! You achieved the goal of the community.

But now I feel the need to ask: are you not aware that what you propose is going back on civilizational achievements of nearly a century?
