I love how you skipped right past the underemployment and undercompensated workforce that still exist today from all those changes.

You’re real management material. Go write an op-Ed on all the great profits to be made.

You mean all the jobs that did things like: go overseas to cheaper labor. Underpay. Turn into gig economy jobs. Underpay. Who is going to pay to move these people who get displaced out of their jobs and into another market? Nobody.

“Simply shift…”

Real myopic, flippant and oversimplified answer you give that completely ignores the cost and personal economic fallout to the displaced individuals.

4 choices: don’t sell in CA, fight the law, make a separate phone to meet R2R laws that are likely going to become more prevalent, release a press report portraying magnanimity towards R2R and make the bare minimum effort to meet the law.

The last is the only real answer.

They absolutely do. However, humans aren’t monolithic, and there will be those that make some effort to be more accurate even when surrounded by those with an opposing agenda.

A single AI will likely be monolithic and can be reprogrammed if it shows any signs of dissent.

E:typo

Some version of the latter is far more likely.

In 10k years, there either won’t be anyone left to read them, or the technology at the time won’t be able to read them.

I would have said a good set of Marmot boots. But I haven’t bought a set since I got mine years ago, so I don’t know what today’s quality is.

ITT some people saying how good this could be.

Will they be the same people wondering where all the jobs are? How AI gets tweaked to offer a slanted instead of a factual and historically correct education?

That’s even better that it’s created of your own inspiration. lol @ overweight skeleton…I’m working on a Vader costume myself and vader will have been eating pretty well in my alternate universe.

I have no idea who this ex-king is, but that is a badass costume.

Well done.

Didn’t musk bail out of California because taxes?

Dude wants a tax-funded agency to pour work into his pet project and skip out on paying for it. What a freeloader.

Couldn’t possibly be instances like this, could it?

Or the price premium for FSD that doesn’t actually work?

Or the reports of poor build quality?

Or the difficulty in getting service?

The lack of customer service?

Or maybe people don’t want to support a company run by an unstable dickhead?

That I still mentally think and feel like I’m 20+ years younger but my body and people around me won’t let me act like it.

Hardy seems worth reiterating as it’s always in the news, but the US seems like it’s in overall decline for most any reason you can think of. Rising disparity, falling buying power for the average person, stagnant wages, increasing costs, rising political instability, rise of the far right with literal calls for civil war, rise of the far right looking to tear down any social, environmental, educational, or scientific advancements, the steady march towards oligarchy and corporatocracy, and then there’s the global climate crisis speeding up and the realization that we’ve been lied to about saving the world with recycling and EVs while the corporations rake in billions and pollute remorselessly.

30-40 years ago the economy looked steady, you could save the world by filling the recycle bin, and you could afford an education, home, and maybe retirement if you followed the “go to college and get a good job” path that generations before had followed.

Subjectively and objectively I’d say we’re worse off.

Sure, there’s some potential bright spots. Advances in medical care (that you probably can’t afford), fusion power advances (that will probably arrive too late to do any good), rising renewable energy (fought every step of the way by anti-environmental types), and a resurgence in the labor movement (also fought every step of the way by the wealthy and corporations), at least that’s something.

As long as the penance is appropriate and not a slap in the wrist it all might actually mean something.

I have 6 machines running Linux. I don’t think my opinion is out of date at all.

Here, in case anyone’s interested.

It’s not Linux specific, but it’s Linux dominant.

I cannot remember the last time I ever had to use some command line option off the internet for windows. Or some regedit.

But that’s ok. Whatever code for Linux one picks will either: not be for your version or distro. Missing repository. Deprecated. Won’t config. Won’t make. Need complex permissions setup. Necessitate recompiling the kernel or something. Just not work for whatever reason.

Linux users refuse to admit (or gatekeep) the fact that there’s a huge knowledge gap and learning curve that has to e surmounted to make Linux usable for professionals, yet people are quick to say “just switch to Linux” when even the easiest mainstream builds fall short of windows functionality.

TF is happening…is any of this written by a human on earth? I for one welcome our alien AI overlords, but suggest they might pick up a book on grammar before asking to fucking spider leader approach me with.

Some people just want to watch the world burn.
