Damn, would be a good meme if not for the completely unnecessary AI usage. I love knowing my lukewarm memes cause dehydration in other parts of the world 🙏

Me until a year ago when I started seeking medical help (still no meds tho)

Ironically I have primarily inattentive ADHD (previously ADD) so youd probably find me spaced out rather than angry

been on uMatrix to default block all scripts, XHR and iframes for years but this would be a nice addition on top for the sites i actually need to enable it on. I mostly block all kinds of tracking but fingerprinting is always annoying

I kinda love this. Using human creativity. The one AI cant reproduce(*), is such a good protest strategy.

*: I know theres more limitations than that, but still a solid idea for protesting.

Each time I read shit like this i get so happy im not a console player or Windows user.

Protecting the punchbag without becoming the punchbag is a fine balance. A scale i wish i never had to adjust. Alas, id like to think i atleast made their days somewhat more bearable than what they would have been otherwise

This looks exactly like what I was looking for! Thank you!

Genuine question, why is this downvoted? Or am I dummy?

I love SSTA SSDs, they’re so good. Happy they moved on from SATA after all those years.

I mean, it just goes in a circle but thursday is centered because the text had to be visible, really feels like the last effort job tho

Looks very interesting but I dislike the use of AI. How does this differ from yamtrack?

Swede here, alot of our empathic and socialist values have gone downhill for many years but especially the last few years have seen a big rise to the right wing extremist party. I think most people here will find this cruel. “This is not the people we wanted to throw out! It was only The muslims, arabs, jews, colored people, unemployed…” etc etc etc.

Some of the new laws that has been passed with the right wing partiets have been incredibly stupid and enabled shit like this. My favorite is that its now illegal to insult law enforcement. There’s this old rhyme we taught kids “polis polis potatisgris” (“police police potato-pig”) which with current jurisdiction would be illegal.

So yeah, Sweden is doing great and is absolutely not turning in to yet another unempathic capitalistic americanized shithole. People keep buying the lies and turn against the less fortunate of society instead of actually seeing the problem.

I did not specify where the money comes from. But you are correct in that scenario. However, it would not necessarily have to go that route. If a company pays the government for tariffs, then proceed to get that money back, that money should then be returned to the end-customer that in the meanwhile has paid more. I fall to see how this is paid by public tax money although I am also not american nor do I know the specifics of the US tax system.

Correct me if im wrong. If businesses raise their prices to reduce the impact of tariffs on profits then the person actually paying the tariff (atleast to some extent) is the end customer, no? Is it not then only fair for the person who actually paid for this to be compensated appropriately when it is deemed unconstitutional?

To me it seems insane that the people who already tossed away the problem further down the chain is to be compensated at all when they are not the ones who have primarily suffered the effects of it. Even if they where first in line to deal with it.

Every day I wake up and feel the immense happiness of knowing that standing up for myself through the 10 years of elementary school and ignoring all of the football guys (90% of the guys at my tiny ass rural school) made me a better person.

Jokes aside, as a swede it is horrible knowing our own football fans behave this way. I sure hope authorities take responsibility and pay for this. These fans shouldnt be allowed to attend games.

2 years on here and I didnt make it on the list ✊😔

Thats it, rename to c/thoughts. /s

The ogligarchs found a way to make people pay to become stupider whilst simultaneously reducing our capabilities to be self-sufficient and improving their wages by making us be content with less.

Short breadown, AI reduces our capability of critical thinking. Instead of researcing a topic the kids just reach for CHATGPT today. This is being done while simultaneously making search engines more and more garbage, attempting to make AI the new search engine norm. This is bad for a myriad of reasons but I think its mainly because censorship and narrative control is easier to exploit with an LLM than a search engine.

Somehow they made us pay for this. Yet another “service” we do not own and are being set up to pay for recurringly.

The massive amount of hardware required for the expansion of AI also plummeted the hardware market for consumers. Also very effective way to ensure no one owns their own computer, since they cant afford it. This being done whilst corporations like Google, NVIDIA and NZXT has already tried to create “rental computers” really drives home the point that they dont want you to own it. Its of course great for them to not have any responsabilites for their products, warranties or reliabilities.

On top of all this we become stupider in the process, compliant and most effectively less “sought after” on the job market, making us cheaper for labour. Its a great circle. Truly the CEO mindset. Only the filthiest of trillionaires could find a way to profit of literally every step of the process.

For context, DRAM/Silicone situation stemming from the massive bulk orders for building data centers and training AI has led to hardware prices absolutely exploding. Valve released the Steam Machine with a hefty $1049 pricetag and thats not even big premium compared to buying all the parts yourself. The destruction of ownership has never been more apparent than now.
