all Tinder cares about is keeping you swiping, with your eyes on the screen.

All my suspended reddit logins are suddenly active again. I was banned for 'inciting violence' by some anti-outdoor cat nazis when I posted a picture of my cat with a rabbit it caught. This was over 3 years ago.

I'm going through removing all my content. F reddit. Scumbags suddenly unbanned my decade of content so they can train AI on it to enrich themselves.

Nah dude. It's not as complicated as that.

It's the same mentality that your neighbor has... I don't have enough because someone else has slightly more than me. Tony across the street got the new car... so I should get a newer and better one than him!

The .01% only hang out with each other, and they compete with each other. And they get jealous when their buddy has a cooler nuclear bunker than them, so they need that extra 10 million this year to ugprade their bunker.

They are not evil, they are just people. And you'd behave exactly the same way in their situation. It's how we are wired, to be stupid selfish jealous monkeys. You don't exist to them, they are not thinking about you, only about themselves.

Same thing when you go to your town meeting and your elderly neighbors are screaming bloody murder at their taxes going up $50 this year because they think children should go to school in unheated buildings.

Americans don't care about facts.

there are places where it's the only option. like highway rest stops.

where i live dudes have their own place and car.

however, they don't have a waterfront condo and 100K car, so therefore they are 'inadequate' or 'unsuccessful' according to most single women if you ask them. always their #1 complaint. and the #2 is how 'successful' men only use them for sex. the irony is lost on them.

But I'm dating in my 30s.

Before that it was 'big data'. remember that?

every 5 or so years the media needs some new tech to hype up to get people paranoid

Exactly. It will lead to improved automation for industrial processes but it won't ever be a consumer tech other than improving your siri results.

It won't replace jobs, anymore than industrial robots in factories replace them.

'big data' 'crypto' etc.

AI is just the next 'big thing' that amounts to nothing. 90% of what anyone says in the press/media is total nonsense. And most AI researchers are downplaying the hype because they know it's all bullshit and AI will ultimately not be a major change anymore than navigation systems in cars was. It is merely convenience and those that 'rely' on it will end up in trouble.

It's a complementary technology, not a revolution.

there is a shortage of jobs because wages are still historically low.

funny thing is companies that pay higher wages don't have trouble hiring people.

my company pre pandemic had 5+ employees turn over every month. post pandemic we have like 1 a month or less. why? our wages went up 40% across the board from 2020-2023. our starting wage used to be 35K in 2019. that's barely livable in in my city. now it's closer to 50K. benefits have also increased substantially, but we did drop the commuting benefits because we are hybrid.

turns out people will work for you if you pay them a fair wage and offer them opportunity to increase their wages.

china is causing a fuss for political gain. a huge chunk of their fishing practices are illegal and violates international law anyway. their concern is theatrics to drum up their anti-japanese nationalism.

 

How much do you pay? How fast are your your real world speeds? Where are you located?

 

Getting people off the street is a priority for Gov. Gavin Newsom. But even with massive funding and new data on who is homeless and why, the state is struggling to see change.
