  • what I really miss from that period of the internet was that children could use it safely

    Uhh... my largest grievance with how the Internet has been designed is that it was never safe for children to be on it, yet children were thrust onto it en-mass long before adults even really understood what it was. And still people are ignoring the massive problems it continues to cause, specifically for the healthy development of children, as society is circling the drain.

  • I think someone calculated the time it would take to read every single one you're expected to agree with in normal every day life, and it worked out to needing 76 work days to read everything you "agree" to in a typical year.

  • Russia doesn't share a border with your country, while being home to a number of brutal cartels run by ex US military special forces.

    Also, we are literally bombing Russia by proxy right now.

  • I just like spreading the good word when people complain about some of Windows' shitty features.

  • I was taught in college to only include a single question in one email unless you can't get around it, because many people will only see the first one.

  • failed states ruled by warlords

    Do you have any idea how many candidates get murdered in elections in Mexico?

  • but that way DRM and windows would be AI too

    That's why I use O&Oshutup to turn off many of windows' automatic functions. Probably my last windows machine anyways.

  • I'm considering the term more broadly here, to refer to it because the function takes control away from the user without their input. I also like having to go back and manually correct my own mistakes, to improve my own tpying/spelling.

  • I don't use AI, in any form if I can help it. That was a 100% all natural ty[p.

  • It's a shame, because a lot of stuff like this is legitimately exciting, but sensationalism tries to sell it as something entirely different and sullies the conversation.

  • It's totally immature.

    If that's something you think you'll have fun doing, I fully recommend it!

  • bosses are making "regular [people]" pay for their screw-ups

    Welcome to human history.

  • It's kind of frightening that people who control that much capitol are apparently unaware that social media is not gospel truth.

  • A lot was invested on the promise of AI, only to discover that it's not capable of becoming this "super intelligence" people were banking on.

  • 'Political leadership' doesn't define reality. People are completely justified to assert rights even if they aren't expressly approved by big daddy g'vmt. That is, in fact, exactly how most of the rights enshrined in law got there in the first place. The Magna Carta itself had to be forced upon the king through the threat of rebellion by the dukes.

  • It's not having any downtime imho. The instant you're done reading something it's trivial to find something else to trigger your pleasure centres, so unless you do it through deliberate intention, you'll never have time to sit and consider what you've read.

  • Thanks, but you're wasting your time. I've got some trolls trying to provoke arguments with me recently.
