With I title like that I expected some destruction of property or death then I saw this was in programming humor

Rats fleeinga sinking ship are still rats. Remember them, they need to work to make up for what they did, don’t welcome them back without them doing that work, be it MTG, Gabbard, or any other douchebag from Trumps orbit. They’ll plead forgiveness for being Christians after ignoring all christian tenants that didn’t help their political aspirations, so at the very least they should actually work to make up for their bullshit, they’ll never make up for it fully but from members of the supreme court, house, Senate, and the executive branch that enabled all the criminal behavior of the government to the Nick Fuentes, Joe Rogan, and other “influencers”, down to the douchebag uncles edgy manosphere trolls and on need to actually work for redemption one they might never actually achieve but should continue to strive for.

That assumes that there are only those two options, you have the paperclip problem as an option, the best case scenario is that the super human AI model just ignores us or wants to cooperate with us the way we try to cooperate with species like wolves to manage ecosystems.

Some terrible star trek shows? Literally the distro benefit ratio of late night shows is great even if declining viewership is making it less profitable, the fact that shows like last week tonight and the daily show are still popular shows there is still a market for a news based version of that type of thing and they decided to cancel it because trump threw a hissy fit and Jimmy Kimmel was on a similar path.

The US military using bodies donated for scientific experiments has a long history of those bodies being blown up, this time around the bodies being used to train medics seems less of an insult to the donors than blowing them up and will help save lives, regardless of what you think of the state of Israel, so unless I missed something in the article this doesn’t seem like a bad thing.

Did they also accidentally use it to rate women by sexual appeal without their consent?

In that link it talked about how 70%+ of millenials and 60 some odd % of Gen Z were pirating last year for at least some of their entertainment, with classic downloading, intercepting streaming from the streaming services for access directly (being the most popular for you get people) and some other forms of piracy.

Maybe, maybe not, but piracy is very much on the rise with all people but younger people in particular.

There is the biggest elephant in the room of enshitification and the rise of piracy again. Why pay for Netflix when Plex or even better jellyfin are available for free/a one time fee for hosting Plex? Why deal with ads and lower quality video when buying/building a NAS costs about the price of a years worth of the top tier steaming platforms and you can control what’s on there not be up to the whims of what the streaming service might have available from other production companies that haven’t set up their own streaming service yet? The fact that neither enshitification nor piracy was mentioned is telling.

On the one hand most people in America have to drive, so they do to a certain extent, on the other hand people who own property work or purchase things such as food benefit from the road system even if they don’t drive as grocery stores in their communities get deliveries on roads and the such. Not a fan that our society requires cars for almost everything but knowing how tax dollars are collected and spend are only part of the story, it’s like saying that because you personally don’t want social security or single payer healthcare or public schools you wouldn’t benefit from its implementation; social security means that older people don’t become complete burdens on society dying in the street and the such, single payer healthcare would reduce costs for all medication and increase the number of doctors available to treat people because (one would hope) there would be less paperwork a doctor needed to do between patients at the very least, and public schools having an educated population eans cheaper services that require things like reading comprehension, be it entertainment, engineered goods, medical treatments, etc. You might not use any one or all of those yourself doesn’t mean you don’t benefit from them.

Already starting with the dad jokes before their child was born?

The most tragic and obvious version of AI already doing that is the school that was bombed in Iran due to AI messing up at best.

I was thinking the exact same thing

Nah but that’s what he wanted, he is the truest form of tech bro, destroy the world, refuse to accept consequences of his actions, weaseled his way out of the situation and managed to, in the wake of unimaginable human suffering, get more power over people and has a god complex tell me this isn’t some or all the characteristics of people like Peter Theil, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Bill Gates, hell even Tim Cook and Steve Jobs before him. Punishment doesn’t stop this sort of behavior but removing the possibility of someone having that level of control over others is the only way but the richest and most powerful have always sought ways of amassing more power not realizing that that leads to worse off situations for everyone including themselves, Horizon did great encapsulating that trait in Faro, but be it him, the people behind Skynet, the Matrix or whatever other tech dystopia that tech bros seem pathologically unable to not try to make happen in the worst way possible is only the beginning, they seem to forget that even with advanced tech that serves their needs and wants, which won’t help their mental health, the people lower down on the rungs of society have brains, wants and needs, and they have more expertise in all sorts of things than the 1% are except for mass exploitation. This inevitably goes wrong one of a few ways, either everyone dies from the tech, or so many that societal collapse is inevitable not great and even if society survives it can’t functionally reconstitute itself; 2 they win and kill off or supress enough of society that the society becomes less productive and instead of fighting the powerful they flee or don’t participate in wealth generating for the rich were they don’t have to, maybe to rise up again later or the economy of the region just ignores them completely and the government protects themselves from their people more than anything else, or 3rd your revolution with terror campaigns against any and all who can be credibly accused of being part of the former tyrants. In all 3 cases the richer people end up poorer overall because wealth flees or dies in autocracy.

Jeez that really sucks.

Governments that raise up against a totalitarian regime in anger rarely end up in a peaceful and prosperous place if they succeed, see France, Lybia, Rome, the Soviet Union/Russian Empire, China every time, Japan (under the shogunate), Egypt (Arab spring), Sudan, Somalia, Assyria (7th century BCE between 612 and 609 BCE), and so many more.

What really?

Just update it from F-droid after that or uninstall it from the Google store download the F-Droid store and download jerboa from there.

Yes and no, the confederates lost the war but their whitewashing of history has quite a bit of staying power to the point that states like West Virginia and Ohio who had massively supported the Union in the Civil War are now more likely neo confederates and agree with the south take on “the war of northern aggression” which they started by attacking federal forces and raiding federal weapons depots while backing out of the federal government allowing it to pass a law they cite as the reason they backed out of it, rather than it being able to pass because they backed out. Also the war still left separate but equal and racial discrimination on the books and the last chattel slave in the US was freed during world war 2. So what the south (Pro-confederate states) and Americans who swallowed their propaganda learned was that fighting a war without seeding the ground everywhere first with their point of view and taking over things from the inside, like they did under Wilson, arguably the worst US president of the 20th century, and Trump just took that playbook and took it farther than the public was ready for but still pushed and those special interest groups that supported him had the choice to renounce him and be reviled by both major political wings of the US or back him to the hilt while he destroys the US from within, because if you can’t get everything you want at least you can make sure nobody else gets anything either.

Well if Feinstein and this guy are both able to, at different times of course, have debilitating health complications that prevent them from showing up to work for major corporate interests maybe it’s time for a younger class of corrupt politicians.
