I don't use autocorrect because I refuse to entirely succumb to the machine. Also, on mobile... well, the default keyboard apps sure do send a lot of net traffic... I'm sure its nothing to worry about though.
Its religious fundamentalism, aka, structured and mandated persistent irrational delusions, anti-reality cult member behavior
When you realize these people just are a kind of insane that isn't recognized as a mental disorder because you can still work a wage slave job while having it... ... and because its broadly popular ... everything starts to make more sense.
America was founded by mostly a mixture of petty criminals and their descendants, and religious nutjobs, and their descendants.
... if you abandon the melting pot / tapestry of differences with a backbone of principles ... idea of America... you revert back to old habits and entrenched norms and material power structures.
How are we harvesting and refining N2 from the ambient air?
What equipment are we doing this with?
How much does that cost? To acquire, and to run?
How much heat is generated when you pull nitrogen out of the air?
... if you can answer those questions practically and affordably...
Well now ... is this nitrogen more valuable as a personal coolant, or as an input for fertilizers or other various specialized industry/tech processes?
It crawled into the bag of snacking cheerios on a camping trip.
... still feed bad about accidentally killing that little guy.
I guess also maybe you could count earning my redwings, though it wasn't like I was ingesting it, and frankly, I didn't even find it disgusting at all, but it seems most people are disgusted by this.
I've done a good bit of martial arts, am quite used to the taste of my own blood in my mouth... hers was basically just a slightly different flavor of blood.
As others have outlined in greater detail... no, you'd have a massive simplification and standardization of such forms, thus a massive reduction in the amount of 'needed' work of such kind.
The entire way the modern US healthcare system works is by making there be so many abstract layers and processes going on at the same time, that it requires an inordinate amount of time and effort to even actually map out what those layers and processes are, much less who is actually responsible for what particular decision or mistake.
And that is the point of it. Its is insanely complex and opaque by design, because it allows them do functionally do whatever they want, and be able to say its all done for compliance's sake.
So, yeah, if you just flatten all that... ~90% of it no longer needs to exist.
Or... the real funny part here is... if we stick with the system as it is, well, this kind of shit is gonna be done by LLMs. So we will probably end up having the same employment void developing under the current hypercapitalist paradigm as well.
Wow, are we going to learn that sunny days tend to be warm, and the sky tends to be blue, next?
I've been saying this since the Return to Office shit started: A huge part of it is narcissist management that need the narcissistic supply of being able to excercise power and judgement over others, in person.
... the other part is that if you don't actually need all that office space, well, then all the fraud and money laundering in commercial real estate gets significantly harder to hide.
The healthcare industry is... cancerous, in that way.
But... you can say that we need societal chemo, and you can also say that kind of bullshit job is exactly whats going to get automated out of existence by LLMs, if we just keep doing hyper capitalism healthcare.
Approximately 1-2 million people employed in the mass bureacracy of claims processing and validation would lose their jobs.
That's how much of a gargantuan amount of bullshit the healthcare industry is, its so big that at this point, assuming the rest of the economy was doing fine, switching to universal health care would create a moderate recession, because so many bullshit jobs would no longer need to exist.
Obviously it would be a massive net economic benefit, but at this point, medicine is gonna sting a bit.
The real answer is that love bombing is simply a behavior pattern that can be benign, or beneficial, or destructive.
A healthy way it might play out would be:
Initial infatuation ->
-> communication leads to deeper and more wholistic appreciation ->
-> moderation into a mutually comfortable new status quo.
But, the way tiktok understands the term is closer to 'anyone who is really nice to you and gives you a lot of attention, for no apparent reason, is potentially intentionally executed a fully consciously premeditated plan to manipulate you and then throw you away afterward.'
Can that happen?
Yep.
How can you tell the difference, before hand?
Uh, you basically can't, not right from step one anyway.
You are not permanent; one day, you will go to sleep, and not wake up again.
... but you do have the power to influence the path you walk on the way toward death, the face you'll be wearing, the stories you'll be able to tell, when you finally arrive in the company of the reaper.
You can be secure in knowing that it is not possible to escape this fate... and in knowing that you lived not in an impossible attempt to avoid the unavoidable, but instead, that you chose to tread the path as you saw fit to.
The Greek Gods were said to be envious of us mortals, because our mortality meant that what we did with our one life... was important, and meaningful, in a way that nothing the Gods ever did, could be.
When you realize that nothing objectively 'matters', to 'the universe'... you are now free, to decide what matters to you, instead.
So... the PayDay devs have ... basically admitted PayDay 3 was a mistake... and are going back to PayDay 2...
I may have an idea for some new heist content.
