What is wild about all this is looking back to the old social contract and how it basically made this fobitted forbidden.

The best example is the movie minority report in which they had a fool proof way to 100% of the time predict the future.

I won’t spoil the movie, but the whole premise was that even if there was one instance of it making a mistake, and a innocent person was put on ice by mistake, then the whole thing had to be shut down.

And in today’s reality: all of big tech’s new tools make mistakes constantly, sometimes more than getting things right, and it’s still full steam ahead on the rollout.

MFW dystopian movies were too optimistic

Interesting inference, the meme implies that if society was thriving then it wouldn’t be a nightmare machine.

Is that honestly true? If most software on people’s devices was FOSS and the world was like 20-30 years ago, would it have the same magic of the past?

I’m curious how much or it is form factor and the addiction that goes along with it.

Personally I think it would be very different. Sometimes I get lost in an obsession over a random topic, I go to wikis instead or doomscrolling. I would imagine that smartphones in a good world would mostly be that.

Oh and games that aren’t trying to be gacha

Everyone here is so excited for the bubble to pop, even though it would make everyone’s life harder.

As for me? I too am also excited for it to pop.

Why? Well what the hell is the alternative, I’ll take a market correction and return to sane time any day of the week but it seems that them oligarchs are too horney for their game of financial Russian roulette.

I rather them putting the gun down, but if they insist on playing then I want them to lose faster.

While that has worked in the past, I don’t think it’s gonna fly this time.

Optics matter and right now GOP are far more all in on AI, it’s also Cheeto’s halfway point, things crashing badly with Dems having some power won’t look like it’s the Dems in control.

The fact that the economy took a bad turn right when he came into office is an association that most people won’t forget.

Isn’t this just the 3DS technology?

But we are comparing solar to nuclear.

Being better than fossil fuels is a pretty low bar.

And yes better nuclear than oil but the whole thing about nuclear is that it has a very delayed start time, so the argument of needing it ASAP supports solar if anything.

While I consider myself pro nuclear, there is something that gets forgotten everytime this conversation comes up.

Nuclear produces waste, which is mentioned often but it is usually responded by pointing out that it could be recycled and the worse to be buried.

Here is what people miss:

Are all our nuclear waste handled correctly today? If not then why should we imply that they will be in the future.

The problem with nuclear isn’t that the waste is impossible to handle, it’s that humans are too short sighted to follow through with it.

And imo that’s a very valid argument on why we should use solar as much as we can.

I agree but don’t a decent chunk of posts do that?

More than Reddit ever did at least

This was honestly my final straw.

Cause they don’t just tell you they don’t have it, they just try to give you something similar.

It’s literally the “can we have ___? We have ___ at home” meme

Best friends forever from South Park.

At the end, there is a battle happening off screen that is supposedly more epic than the battles of lord of the rings.

When they pan to it, it’s like 3 soldiers with a few pools of blood.

You have 30 minutes to move your cube.

Although I fully agree with you, there is no gotcha here. They are greedy and want the most for themselves, that’s it.

What’s weird is ciders exist that taste just like juice yet they are the niche drink.

Hades when you finally beat the boss after 70 chambers.

It’s a rogue like game so on every death you go back to the beginning.
