  • No, dude. People are going to die over this. A lot of people.

    Democrats are complicit at best, and each day they seem more like collaborators. They won't save us from fascism because they don't want to.

    We're fucked beyond belief, and it's going to take a long time for people to realize how badly.

  • Spoiler alert: they can't!

    Starbucks has been spending tens of millions of dollars a year trying to figure out how to grow coffee in non-traditional coffee growing regions like hot lowlands where it doesn't get cool at night.

    These farmers will be abandoned by their colonial overlords, and replaced with new farmers in different areas.

  • Maybe... You shouldn't have to be on a shoestring budget? Maybe this economy should let you support yourself more comfortably.

    And maybe you should be the recipient of mutual aid during a general strike if you need it.

  • This is where mutual aid comes in.

    Share cash with people who need it. Pay their bills, pay their rent, pay their bail money, pay their medical expenses.

    The capitalists will hurt people to try to get you to stop boycotting and striking.

  • Enjoying pineapple on pizza is in the same realm as enjoying jelly on a peanut butter sandwich or a twist of lemon in a martini.

    Make your jokes if you must but know I'm scoffing at your unsophisticated potato palate. 😉

  • I sorta disagree though, based on my experience with llms.

    The email it generates will need to be read carefully and probably edited to make sure it conveys your point accurately. Especially if it's related to something as serious as insurance.

    If you already have to specifically create the prompt, then scrutinize and edit the output, you might as well have just written the damn email yourself.

    It seems only useful to write slop that doesn't matter that only gets consumed by other machines and dutifully logged away in a slop container.

  • I've never heard anyone make these claims about donkey Kong country before. I remember it being highly praised for innovative gameplay and impressive graphics, especially for it's generation.

  • This isn't as true in tech companies as it was in traditional companies years ago. Most high level engineers take an individual contributor role that allow you to be promoted without becoming a manager. At Google it's called a staff role. At Amazon it's a principal role.

  • I wouldn't use an AR for home defense because I'm not interested in shooting through 4 walls and killing my neighbors kid by accident.

    I believe bird shot is enough of a deterrent for home defense and requires significantly less precision in a tense situation.

  • I genuinely believe more people would have kept uaing physical media if they made it more convenient just to pop in a movie and play it.

    Everytime I put in a 4k blu Ray, there's like 40 seconds of useless loading screens, unskippabble warnings, menu animations, and other bullshit. It feels like the old days of massively overcooked multimedia "experiences" in the worst way possible.
