They've always needed something to bitch about

Paralegal in family law, communist (the "tankie" kind), anti-imperialist (anti-US/NATO), pro human & animal liberation, gaming geek (not a gamer), punk and ska girl, middle-aged autistic transfem, some combo of polyamorous/lesbian/demisexual/aromantic
They've always needed something to bitch about
The thing about all these freak AI execs constantly going "our machine may have gained sentience?!" is that they want slaves. That they are ok with slave labor.
And *then* it always, always turns out their latest AI trick actually used slave labor somewhere in the global south.
They're slavers.
These guys are going "look, I invented a mind that is ok to enslave!"
Which means they *already think there are some minds that are ok to enslave*
And then you look at how they treat actual people and you're like "yeah that checks out, shithead"
The feds came down on politically conscious hackers like a ton of bricks, and no one stopped them
If you are cis right now you really just do not need to be trying to fuck with trans women's nerves. You will be lucky if you get a polite request to stop but we typically are not feeling very good lately.
There was a time when Star Wars nerds fucking hated this movie
The smug indifference to children being vaporized and telling immigrants to get fucked certainty didn't improve her chances...π€·ββοΈ
Fun thing to think about very briefly: who currently has better lawyers, the United States or Nintendo
Saw it coming and kept committing genocide anyway, knowing it was deeply unpopular and her odds of winning were already in the toilet
revising my initial opinion of "the US is going to suffer a prolonged decline trying to subdue Iran before having to declare victory after gaining some meaningless concession" to "the US has maybe two weeks left tops before the economy crashes and the war effort slips out from under the army's feet"
What really fucking pisses me off is that he only has to get approval from the US government for this shit. The sky belongs to us ALL and we get absolutely no say when this asshole wants to ruin it.
Have you noticed a trend of people speaking to total strangers in semiliterate prompts?
Like, someone going "what make car go" or "game name give name of game" etc
It's because they forgot that a human normally responds to stuff like that with "jesus christ dude"
Electricians and plumbers are seeing these dipshits and going "hell yeah, job security"
These dipshits are guaranteed to fuck up a DIY listening to their gooning machine made of plagiarism and turn a $200 problem into a $20,000 problem.
Yeah, it was genuinely terrible. If Lucasfilm put this out YouTube would be raging about it for the next 10 years.
Predictably instead, itβs the usual moronic chud responses in the comments:

Lol. I had a guy I work with tell me an AI video heβd seen about the Battle of Hoth was better than anything to come from Lucasfilm in the last 45 years.
I laughed and told him perhaps heβll leave the rest of us to enjoy the human-made βslopβ now.
As much as I hate to admit it, if we actually want to inflict pain on the owners then the best way is likely to stay here and make the place as toxic as possible. Every day they're stuck running a site filled with trannies and commies is miserable for them
perhaps this website attracts 38 year olds because its no problem for us to post on a forum where all the mods are huge pieces of shit that everybody hates
since I am reminded that this dude exists and singal just got published in the NYT again it seems a great time to bring this back
oh this place is a ticking time bomb. I see
mfw this guy was THE middle east dude for the USG for like 20 years and he still has no idea how the Islamic Republic works
Everyone has just accepted this idea that thereβs one evil guy controlling every country the US doesnβt like and itβs bananas- no countries operate like that
Target has allowed ICE to abduct its workers and use its property for staging. Now Minnesota organizers are building a pressure campaign against the company. "There is no neutral here," says labor organizer Veronica Mendez Moore. Vital reporting by Isabela Escalona.
One of the instances in which it is actually emphatically true that by stifling left-liberal criticism of Israel on a liberal basis you just leave open room for nutjobs to do it and fill the space instead
To anyone who seriously thinks president Harris would've restrained Netanyahu from attacking Iran: just letting you know, I'm the county wallet inspector and I'm going to need to see your credit and debit cards
I wish people would come to understand transphobia as systemic, structural, and pervasive so we could stop treating transphobia as explicitly limited to people saying "I hate trans people" and accept the way our society conditions us all to dismiss, diminish, and dehumanize trans people.
friendly reminder that anyone talking about a βthird wayβ is selling you on fascism
nothing is a distraction from anything, they are doing all manner of evil nazi shit at the same time you dumb motherfuckers
Fetterman very much falls under this as well. The exact same people promoted him while waving away red flags, then blamed everything on the stroke
At some point we really need to talk about the clear susceptibility a lot of US "progressives" have for oafish folksy good ol' boys who yeah maybe have checkered pasts and some less than PC views but pobody's nerfect
