  • Because it's funnier that way

    I misread your tone cause of the way the other person reacted to my joke, apologies

    Join the link

    Not with the stars though right?

  • Spend 5 minutes creating a bash script

    Spend 5 billion dollars on an overly complicated summarizer

    Why the fuck would I wanna write bash

  • What you're describing is just a higher level of autonomy. If I remember correctly, you're describing level 3 whereas Tesla's are level 2. I believe VW made a level 3 proof of concept mini bus back around 2020 but the legislation doesn't allow for the sensors in the road yet because... Oh that's right. A level 2 car manufacturer owns like half the world right now which means nobody is allowed to innovate or do better than him. Huh, that sucks.

  • Robot parts

  • Why are we taking this so seriously? I don't want to actually be the Borg. I want to be a socialist cyborg, and that's what I meant in my first comment

    Edit: okay I totally did say "I'd be a Borg" but I meant a socialist cyborg. My bad

  • I almost feel like you're intentionally avoiding what I'm actually saying. I am not praising the Borg as an exemplar of a good society. I am saying that they happen to have one aspect that is also present in what would be a good society. In my first comment I acknowledged that what they do is not okay, and then jokingly compared assimilation to socialism because it has 2 similar properties. I oversimplified for the sake of a joke. You're being an ass for no reason over a joke about cyborgs being kind of similar to socialism. The joke used the Borg as a subject but literally any cyborg lifeform would fit the bill because the mechanical parts provide the sustenance and protection the worker needs.

  • So? Can't the Borg also be socialist? We have multiple capitalist groups right here in real life

  • At what point did I mention anything about the hive mind being a good thing? The only thing I praised was the fact that the hive provides homes and sustenance for its workers

  • I'm not talking about the method they use to work, I'm talking about the methods they use to facilitate that work. They provide their workers with homes and sustenance. I would expect to put entertainment on that list too if they weren't cyborgs

  • I'm stealing that quote, that's fuckin fantastic. If you came up with that, kudos

  • BROLIGARCHY

    Brother that is the funniest fucking portmanteau I've seen in ages. Thank you for this lmao

  • Amazing. You've yet to actually make a point in this conversation, only disparage mine without any counterargument lol

  • You'll probably have an easier time you research some writers who come from more Matriarchical societies. Typically, these are gonna be places with very old cultures. Native populations (almost any country tbh) and Islanders tend to be good bets for that

  • Ooh, Warm Bodies is great on this list to my memory. She quite literally warms his heart with her love

  • Fully providing every single need to their people in an attempt to create the most efficient worker possible? It just so happens that their "work" is assimilating people into the hive, but... The methods surrounding their work are pretty nice.

  • Yeah, if the Borg weren't so violent towards non Borg they would be the actual end goal of a lot of nerds. You're telling me we could be socialist cyborgs in space?

  • I would be lining up to become part of the Borg tbf. It's basically giga-socialism

  • Finances are taught poorly everywhere tbf. I was lucky with my precalculus teacher being a huge finance nerd, she spent at least 3 separate full class sessions going over credit cards and loans completely unrelated to our content at the time

  • I'll really really appreciate this. I like having a few federated services to bounce between when I'm bored, but not a huge fan of actually using pixelfed since it's more akin to social medias I never used. Having pixelfed content more easily accessible in Lemmy will make it a lot easier for me to interact with larger portion of the Fediverse
