  • I can keep going too. How many Internets, flying vehicles, automobiles, and solid-state electronics have your countries invented before the brains of the USA did?

    If you want to call all Americans stupid you're going to have to ignore a huge amount of contributions to the world's status quo.

  • The scroll duping was patched but there's a similar one you can do with dropping item stacks into an empty container. Holding shift and dragging a multi-stack over to the container, clicking another item to dupe.

  • Yep exactly the same, they jacked up prices during the pandemic due to supply chain problems, then they kept the prices high after the problems went away. Then the trumptards blamed Biden for inflation and we got president orange hitler and the nazi takeover.

  • Yes, because here in the capitalist USA I am free to choose what phone and carrier I use, and what OS and software my phone have on them. The free market decided that I should have access to bootloader unlockable phones with open source OS and zero shitty Facebook apps spying on me.

  • Nope. Reading skills are improved by being challenged by complex language, and the effort required to learn new words to comprehend it. If the reader is interested in the content, they aren't going to skip it. Dumbing things down only leads to dumbing things down.

    For example, look at all the iPad kids who can't use a computer for shit. Kids who grew up with computers HAD to learn the more complex interface of computers to be able to do the cool things they wanted to do on the computer. Now they don't because they don't have to. Therefore if you get everything dumbed down to 5th Grade reading level, that's where the common denominator will settle. Overcoming that apathy requires a challenge to be a barrier to entry.

  • If people use AI to summarize passages of written words to be simpler for those with poor reading skills to be able to more easily comprehend the words, then how are those readers going to improve their poor reading skills?

    Dumbing things down with AI isn't going to make people smarter I bet. This seems like accelerating into Idiocracy

  • I'm not sure exactly what, but it should be something closer to what many brave Americans did in San Diego and Minneapolis recently. Giving out free tacos is better than nothing I guess, but it's not the level of effort their responsibilities require in the moment.

  • This is accurate, and before anyone else downvotes I challenge you to google that shit. Homicides in the USA involving rifles are only 3% at most of the total. About 80% of mass shootings involve the use of handguns, while only 20-30% involve rifles (some crossover due to multiple guns used in events).
