Time for the big short

Is it because in Linux the UI is so customisable that there's no definitive 'look' to sell?

I will now attempt a full comment ... brace your hard drives

Keeping my dogs away from others in public is, in my opinion, a considerate responsibility to the community in recognition of diverse preferences. So, I am very careful not to let my dogs engage with people unless the person approaches us. When they do, our little pack loves it 🙂

That swasti-shift tech is so hot right now

They could have concepts of self maintenance, which include cleaning, degreasing and re-lubrication during repair. Would that be considered clean by non-biological standards?

The entire remaining free democratic world is Trump's foe now

Well said!

I thought Zelensky showed remarkable constraint given the circumstances and the deal was no deal for Ukraine.

A democratic that is average at democracy is better than a conservative who is great at authoritarianism.

This isn't a shitpost, it's a little touching and breaks down stereotypes. Well done OP

Cloudalist's and their technofuedalism

It's difficult to let the judicial system move through its processes so slowly, but I agree with this comment. If the people decide to invalidate the courts by taking matters into their own hands, then they are no better than those who seek to defy the courts. If you believe in democracy then you must also have some faith in the courts, no? That's not to say the courts won't fail, but circumventing them prematurely would be, as I see it, a definitive loss for the people.

I believe this is what was added

A shitpost is happening

Looks at the rising habitability of northern Canada, Greenland and Russia as an alternative the inhabitability of equator nations, due to climate change

Would this be considered an opportunity for progress?

I don't think a lot of Americans are grasping exactly how hard we fucked ourselves by refusing to responsibly inform ourselves even to a minimal degree.

This! Methods that lower general intelligence:

• Content Streaming - its starts with Bluey
• Gaming - iPads have replaced paper in schools, in car trips colourful gems pop instead of engagement with the world. Adults game the night away, streaming live. Kids aspire to be them.
• Social media - Algorithms, echo-chambers, bots, keyboard warriors, content cencorship and manipulation, advertising, yuck.
• Dating Apps
• AI - We'll become dependent and lower general critical thinking skills.
• Legalisation of marijuana. - Its political support should be a concern. While it may be seemingly harmless at an individual level, there seems to be issues with mass use. How many users abstained from voting?
• Underfunded, cookie cutter lower education. There is no flexibility for the diversity of people and development potentials. Teaching children non-denominational meditation and concentration, or helping them observe but reconcile simple contradictory expressions of duality in existence, would strengthen their conciousness significantly.
• Over emphasis on technical STEM in higher-education without equally supporting the arts and philosophy.
• Cultural over-emphasis towards individual monetary wealth over knowledge, spirituality or even concern for the wealth of those around them. Prevents empathy.

All of these focus on separating the individual from other individuals. The darkness does not want connected families or communities. It wants you to feel alone, helpless and willing to hand over your power.

We have all seen the US police force's brutality under democratic law. How much worse could it be under authoritarian rule? My advice would be to immediately set up public meetings with local law enforcement at the officer level, start a collaborative dialogue and get to know each other, fast.

That's OK 🙂 I know there are AI services out their that can transcribe YouTube videos into text. Maybe that could be a useful tool for everyday needs?

Given the importance of the content, I'd recommend watching the full video
