  • Just because the man has a "D" next to their name they have to act like it's a good thing.

  • At this point in time I'm pretty sure you would win in a landslide if you ran on taxing billionaires. Is being greedy a requirement to be a politician in the US?

  • At this point if there ends up being a blanket law that forces everyone to do it I might just opt out of the modern internet entirely. The modern internet is just an amalgamation of ragebait, AI slop, propaganda, and scams. What would I really miss out on? I'd say the porn but even that is being poisoned by the AI slop.

  • I run into that same issue from time to time. Another one I run into is when I click on items on the task bar it doesn't bring it up as the active window even when everything else is working. I have to ALT+tab to bring up any Window or minimize every window just to find the one I want and it is absolutely infuriating.

  • I use windows 10 at home while I use windows 11 at work. The only thing I like about windows 11 is tabs in the file explorer. Besides that I've had to deal with Windows Explorer crashing on a daily basis, task bar freezing completely multiple times a week, certain software straight up not working that I need to get work done, programs crashing that work perfectly fine on 10, internet connectivity issues (usually DNS for some fucking reason), periodically hearing the disconnect sound for a device even when everything is still working, awful drop down menus, needing to change the registry just to get basic features that 10 has, and the list goes on and on. At home everything just works. I've been testing Linux and have been getting better stability than Windows 11 and I feel like every week there's a new problem.

  • Hell yeah.

  • I cry during sad movies. Fight me about it, bro.

  • The only reason they are caving on any of this is because they think they have already won somehow. If Trump says he has nothing to hide that means he's hidden the truth.

  • With how much external funding gets shoved into AI startups these days, I feel like 90% of AI startups are basically just a pump and dump with extra steps and targeted at investors. He's probably already gotten millions in investments already just by this announcement.

  • As shitty of a situation this is, I can see this backfiring spectacularly. If they out any Democrats that were involved with Epstein it's very likely they were all running around in all the same circles back in the day and could easily release any information they want when they have nothing to lose. If there's one thing we've all learned about these scum of the earth it's that they only care about themselves and absolutely love taking revenge on other people. I'm sure almost everyone that was ever involved with Epstein has dirt on someone else that was involved.

  • I mean, she is a better representation of what republicans and MAGA actually say they are. When you really dig in to what they believe they would never vote for Trump if they weren't indoctrinated into a cult that he created. He's literally against everything they stand for when you go past the surface but they are so blinded by owning the libs that they don't see it anymore. Remember before the election last year and every republican, including voters, said that Trump was poison and that they would never support him again? They know this deep down even if they won't admit it. They just either don't care, want something out of it, or are genuinely blind to him fucking everyone over. MTG used to be one of the hardcore believers and I genuinely think was brainwashed and is slowly starting to realize it.

    But to be clear, I still think she is a garbage human. I just believe that deep down this is the candidate they'd actually want if they weren't so deep in the propaganda from their Dear Leader. She would actually do republican things and not just use it as a guise to become a dictator.

  • I'm a musician, an artist, and I was even started to get into voice acting so I have hated generative AI from the beginning. These are all things that are insanely difficult to get jobs in and money from and now it is basically impossible. Don't get me wrong, I think there are genuinely good uses for AI when it comes to science and medicine and I am a strong advocate of those kinds of AI. The problem with AI is that it is being developed in a purposefully disruptive and malicious way. They're not innovating for the sake of innovation, they are innovating for the sake of making more money and generally making peoples lives worse.

    They could make an AI model that artists can use to help in the creative process by making some of the more tedious aspects easier, but they'd rather steal everyone elses art and replace you. They could make writing easier by developing tools that can make putting your thoughts onto paper a more seemless experience that can open the door to those that may struggle with literacy and dyslexia, but they'd rather steal everything you write and replace you. They could make AI tools that can make making music easier by creating tools that make the post processing part easy and basically automated like how Autotune works, but they'd rather steal everyone's music and make their own as they replace you.

    We've developed the greatest technology of the past decade and put it into the hands of people that do not care about us and only want to suck as much money out of our pockets as much as possible and manipulate us against each other while we all lose our jobs to the tools that were supposed to make our jobs easier. And now it's to the point in the US that these companies have invested so much money and infrastructure into it that backing down is not an option anymore without collapsing the entire economy. And all the while they are destroying neighborhoods and peoples lives with their data centers just to maybe one day possibly achieve AGI if it's even possible with current AI architecture, which it probably isn't. When OpenAI is prioritizing generated videos and being able to have sex with ChatGPT, that should be a clear sign that they have lost the plot entirely.

    Just to be clear this is all aimed at generative AI. AI is an amazing technology that can do a lot of amazing things. The problem is that the companies making generative AI are actively using them to make peoples lives worse just for the sake of money and are barely even hiding it. And yeah I know, that's capitalism baby. But this feels different. They aren't competing against each other, they are competing against us, our rights, our freedom, our privacy, and our money. It feels like the corporations stopped fighting each other and turned all their fighting spirit onto the general population.

  • And who, exactly, is going to get paid to do that? Last I saw 75% of them were furloughed at the moment.

  • Dictionary.com reveals '67' is its 2025 Word of the Year

  • Even the kids that say it don't even take it that seriously and are 100% aware that it is just brainrot, at least from what I have seen. Although, I do still enjoy saying "sixty seven" to my nephew whenever it comes up.

  • Don't worry guys, they're only putting these AI cameras in literally every city and doing it in shady ways without anyone knowing. And false flags like this happen very frequently.

  • This is purely anecdotal, but I have been running into a lot of DNS issues over the past couple months where I work. 3 of the computers and even one of the laptops for remote work were having DNS issues that needed to be fixed. One even needed Windows reinstalled after fixing the DNS issue (Which was probably unrelated, but worth mentioning)

    I'm honestly starting to think that the internet in general might be imploding. Not sure why, but replacing so many developers and programmers with AI might be responsible. Who knows, but it's definitely very strange.

  • There is no reason for a camera to ever be in a bathroom for any reason. And no matter what reason they can come up with there will always be a downside that is substantially worse.

  • If you're gonna lie at least make it believable. If he said one of his staffers put it up one day when he was out and he never noticed then that would actually be a believable story.

  • Some of these "kids" are older than Charlie Kirk. They were literally all in the same age range and demographic. This is the modern Republican party when you don't include the old people.
