How has no one mentioned the ring yet? What's that placement on the finger? It looks like half of it is right on the joint and it looks like 3d printed plastic. It's a wedding ring but no material that lasts looks like that.
That's just fucked up. Clear plastic seems like the worst possible container as it gives little or no protection, and is obviously plastic which the world only needs less of.
I always felt that they are still wasted, just in another way. They're recently awake, on the way to work that for the vast majority isn't something they're excited about. They're drained and don't want to be there. I always thought I'd much rather choose my position in those moments than theirs. And I'm sure at least some see us (in this situation) and are envious.
We definitely are in some ways, but I don't think this applies. Just the past month I've seen several articles about companies doing real work on scaling back AI use, which is good. But a bigger number are still fully invested and everyone who has any say about it have such an extreme AI psychosis that the companies, and possibly themselves, won't survive.
They'll never hear that though, they'll hear what the want to hear, both via the people at the company and their own brain filter. Then they might see this and other articles but that doesn't matter because they're so far down in the hole of AI psychosis.
It's just such a fucking constant thing everywhere online, anything about America is just written like it's a worldwide thing because most Americans need to be told that the rest of the world exists for their broken brains to remember that.It's so fucking tiring just seeing the never ending "here's a thing" that's very specifically about the US but posted everywhere and never titled or talked about like it's a US specific thing.It's not just titles either, it's the articles those posts link to, the videos, the everything all the way that not a single person thought "oh, this is US specific and should probably be shared as such".
A 3,000 punt vehicle will have a lot less braking distance than a 6,000 pound one.
A big vehicle like that has a lot more horizontal blind spot, it's been a major thing with drivers of those monstrosities literally not seeing kids, people in wheelchairs etc.
Most people are out of their depths with such big vehicles in many ways, they should require a specific license because it's such a different thing compared to a normal sized car in so many ways.
It's a real bad combination of way to big cars with all the negatives + phone and in car touch screen use.
It's absolutely not 90% either of them, it's a combination.
This is also mostly American, no other country has cars like that in those numbers (per capita), and Americans also have a higher phone usage while driving percentage than most of the world.
Yes, the current tech industry has made computer hardware into drugs. It's a sellers market and the buyers that are ordering the largest amounts at the highest prices are AI and data center companies, everyone else gets the left overs at even higher prices.
I have to use cloud streaming for gaming, Shadow specifically (because it's the only one that can do mods, emulation and (though not specifically allowed but you gotta be a real idiot to get caught) pirating). While you can run it on most things (Linux and Android for me) the cloud computer is only Windows, and while I absolutely do not want to give any props or positive anything to Microsoft, I've had none of the issues with Win11 that have been reported throughout the years. This means nothing, obviously, as it's only a subjective experience and these things wouldn't be reported if they weren't real problems. I've just been surprised over and over that I've had absolutely no sign of anything I've seen so much about. No matter my experience though, fuck microslop.
I'm forced to use it so it's easy to hate it because of that, every little thing that I know isn't a problem or as hard to do on other distros just makes me long for those.
