  • Sports gambling is so fun though. If I cant catch the fight I can just put $100 on my favorite fighter and its the same satisfaction as if I watched it live. If I dont think my favorite fighter will win I can put $1000 on him losing and it softens the pain of seeing him getting slimed out cold.Plus you basically get paid to gamble.

  • This feels like a bit of a contradiction. AI is good for healthcare tree planting and lifeguarding but a retail robot is capitalism gone to far. I dont buy the idea that this is purely driven by capitalism and corporate greed because it neglects the fact that these robots are currently way more expensive than human labor. This is emerging technology and what we are seeing here is a partnership between two companies to start realworld testing a new tech. They dont expect it to be better or more cost effective its R&D. We would expect to see the same in every single effective economic system because its just a basic human development process. Maybe a decade down the line when these become more cost effective than human labour you could say they're replacing human labour for profit but we arent there or even close to there. Then even when we get to that future reality where your comment now makes sense its still not the result of captialism, every half decent economic system would cashiers with robots if they were good enough.

    As for the bit about there being no protection from the big scary captial class, we do have protection it’s called a government. Capitalism and public regulation aren't mutually exclusive. If the need to increase tax and welfare arises then we can do that within our current system but the reality is there is still a normal amount of employment available for humans considering we're entering a world recession.

    Hopefully I was interpreting your point correctly, if I wasnt please let me know because it was a bit chaotic.

  • The Boring Internet - Essay by Terry Godier

  • I am on the same side of the issue as this author and I should be reading this and agreeing. But I disagree with nearly every statement, god this is such a bad essay. I think it does a terrible job of making its case.

    The cherry on top for me is the author making a fucking RSS reader.. I swear people in this space do not understand why its dying. They keep doing the same things over and over again instead of trying to actually fill the gaps. The solutions back then were solutions for the time, we can take them and improve them.

  • DuckDuckGo installs are up 30% as users reject being ‘force-fed’ Google’s AI Search

  • Thats way more than I expected when I made the comment and I think that changes my opinion on it being a small amount.

    Jump

  • Thats depressing. % stats like this always oversell it. There are probably not many people installing duckduckgo so a 30% increase is a small handful of users. I'd expect like 500% if there was actual pushback.

  • How? I dont think its possible to be more convenient than an AppImage.

  • systemd is a name for a set of modular tools. That would be like saying that GNU is scope creeping and should stay in their lane.

  • Systemd is open source. Its bindings are open source. If snowflake distro's want to maintain this compatibility they can maintain it.

  • you’re implying it’s a binary choice. Either we support labour or we support the right. The way I see it, they’re a centrist party now at best. I want to support a more leftist/libertarian party.

    I understand that perspective and im not trying to say its binary because its fine to vote that way. I just think even if you want to support a more leftwing party people should refrain from carrying the exaggerated right wing narratives against labour because they still need a strong center left party to pickup the votes for people who arent as far left.

    Lastly, I don’t think it’s good to excuse bad policies by saying they also did other good things.

    I am saying that the good things are bigger than the bad so you should focus on the good rather than the bad. They already have every right winger focusing on the bad, they dont need it from the left as well. Theres a difference between talking about the bad policies in a critical way and then shitting on them every single time their mentioned and running down their list of worst policies. Rail nationalization is huge, its a huge win for the left and it should be talked about at every opportunity so people are encouraged to vote left.

  • From what I've seen the good far outweighs the bad and it is what I would consider left wing. When you look at the reasons why he did the things you're attacking its not like its his ideal policy, he had his reasons and seems that if the circumstances were different he would be more free to pursue a further left wing stance. Government isnt always getting what you want, you must balance the budget and fight to spend your political captial most efficiently getting wins where they matter most. I dont think hes done a great job but its not half as bad as people claim.

  • Yes I understand being pissed off at some horrible legislation but focusing on single events and painting an entire picture will destroy any politician. Focusing on his worst legislation ignores all the good stuff he has passed and makes people think the left is just as bad when objectively that is not the case.

    Like even looking at the online safety act. Thats popular legislation with majority support. Think of all the things that wouldnt have happened under a conservative government, rail nationalization, strengthen labour laws, green energy expansion and reform, prison reform.

    All his biggest controversy kind of pales in comparison to the good done. So to throw all that out just seems very stupid to me.

  • the UK has it rough. They have a dogshit conservative government for a decade and then get pissed when the left cant clean it up in a single term. Also most of the voters are still falling for conservative outrage bait drumming up a ton of distraction issues like migrant crime and rape gangs.
