  • You mean to tell me that a system designed to learn what’s most common, over what is prevalent, got things wrong? Things that could change each year?

    Crazy. Yet another misuse of new things by ignorant people in power. Who would’ve guessed!

    Oh wait - The Great Leap Forward (Mao, naturally), The Opium Wars, Social Media PsyOps by numerous govts, Asbestos, Abuse of Surveillance, Boeing 737 debacle, etc.

    Guess history will keep repeating itself until we actually get the lesson through our thick heads. Take your time to understand how things work, and how they cut before impacting huge amounts of people.

  • I’m kinda split on it tbh.

    On one hand, we have a literal ip spacing crisis - mainly because there’s bajillions of arguably repetitive content among other non scrupulous stuff.

    On the other hand, having a niche community has its pros.

    Totally agree with your analogy of Walmart though - but then there’s also things like FediNet which basically let people use a standard framework to hve their niches.

    It’ll be interesting to see what the future brings

  • Keep this in mind, some places raises will barely cover inflation.

    Now factor in gas and, most importantly, time spent commuting.

    All that on top of effectiveness in working with social interruptions, trips to the coffee machine, bathroom breaks, lunch, etc.

    Any of these businesses that are pushing for on-site are locked into costs from renting space - guarantee it. I get wanting to do the occasional face showing or in person meetings, but they should be concise and few in number - if they’re an efficient shop. Plenty of new blood that get the value of hybrid/remote work.

  • I’ll take X company cheaped out, bought from unreliable, dog shit materials provider in country Y (who either purposely or neglectfully knew what they were doing, as a manufacturer), and now has a scape goat despite the root of the issue for 5000 please.

  • Let’s be clear - this was a disgusting move on behalf of the US. Something that happened under Drumpf, specifically pushed by the military state, and against actual diplomats wishes.

    This, yet again, was stupidity pushed by the toxic burning pit of tires that is the military in the US. Backed by a moron Fascist, that was shutdown when Biden came into office (eventually, after it worked for the most part and became less relevant - go figure. Classic opportunistic, ‘we’re the good guy’ democrats)

    This government is rotten and decaying and its death is expedited by war-hungry militaries. As it appears to be, across the world and nations. We have a human problem on our hands and no amount of “we’re the good guys” will ever solve it. Everyone is complicit in this shit and it’s time we fucking own up to our failures and struggles to actually solve the root of our problems. Enough is enough.

  • 100%

    I’m critical of every ruling body, regardless of where I reside. There’s something to be said about having power over millions of people and how humans deal with that.

    I’m especially critical of governments that are known to run PsyOps, disinformation campaigns, and known histories of abuse (US, China, Russia, Israel, Iran, North Korea, etc). Ultimately, the devil you know is better than the others, but we’re still working with devils

  • True, however that doesn’t necessarily constitute falsehood in what they’re claiming.

    The UN also did work on this, as did Canada and some investigative reporters in Europe.

    China has lots of adversaries. Mainly anybody in the west, and they dominate any of their other Allies which makes them a de facto leader and would make criticism from anyone else pretty tough.

    Edit: oh and in 2015 China announced that they wouldn’t do forced organ transplants on prisoners anymore - so they were most definitely participating in this disgusting practice.
