Interwebs are too addicting. It’s like we are all in one room and are snorting coke by ourselves.

It’s one thing to read a newspaper or a book, different one to scroll social media stuck in an infinite loop of dopamine. Our lives may be longer than ever but in practice they are shorter than ever

Dystopian

Guys ‘ruining’ of some entertainment platform is nowhere near worthy of that much saltiness to wish someone ded genuinely

Some salt adds spice to life but too much and you just look all dry and wrinkled. We gotta have some kind of standards

This controller kept me in rocket league gold for months. I put it on eBay and some shmuck said they need it in a submarine but are on a budget so max can do is three fiddy. I just wanted to get rid of the thing

Remember to try hiding vote display and see how it changes your usage. It’s underrated feature that imo makes you focus on the quality of the content rather than popularity.

What you want is quality of small platforms with the amount of content from big. It’s unsolvable problem so far

They earn fucking shit

Biz is biz

No but if I’d be doing anything other than piracy I wouldn’t be typing things I am typing even

I am autistically obsessed with niche underground internet things. though that one isn’t really one of them I guess

Touché

You have to do some mild gymnastics to buy monero here but yes this is what I use for sensitive transactions too.
It’s weird because theoretically there is some kind of law that makes it harder to buy it but there are services that let you do it anyway so I am guessing it’s a cat and mouse game.

Emoji of a currency used for shady shit is the last thing it needs tho lol, it would be kinda like private tracker putting ad on YouTube or smh

Yes, it seems like people always forget about inflation. Okay yes your one milion will be two millions in 14 years at 5% yearly but it will be worth only 1.25 million corrected for inflation so you just made 25% over 14 years. And that’s for just 3% year to year inflation.

So companies must at least grow by inflation rate to stay afloat.

Inflation is a word that haunts me to be honest. It is 8% here right now. Which means value of money will be halved in 9 years

I am not exactly super good with money to be honest, recently I bought like full set of apple pro devices and now I am thinking how to get liquidity for UV skincare and clothes, I desperately need clothes, and body laser and several plastic surgeries and… yeah.
But I learned something from all these sprees I hope. It’s that I am not rich and shouldn’t behave like I am. I may be slightly stupid tho, in an adhd way.

Wow I am glad I only lost 10k and called it expensive stock market crash course. Apparently minute trading is not that easy

And that person is waiting for recovery, classic move. Next phase is trying to win it all back

I am so glad I got this lesson before the inheritance, I would 100% do something similar

Yeah but the scale is bigger and we could be doing something worthwhile with all these finite resources it makes me a bit dizzy

So you want to tell me they all spent billions and made huge data centres that suck more power than small country so we can all play with it, generate some cringy smut and then toss it away?

This is kinda insane if that’s how it will play out

Fallout was so on point, only a lot of distance and humour makes it not outright painful or scary knowing the damn nukes will be popping sooner or later one just doesn’t know if tomorrow or in 80 years. The question is not if but when

It isn’t built-in in the very phone operating system where you just tap on generate response in the iMessage. It is always about laziness. First the privacy went away due to path of least effort even though you always had tons of privacy alternatives but they require just 10 seconds of extra effort

I have just read the features of iOS 18.1 Apple intelligence so called.
TLDR: typing and sending messages for you mostly like one click reply to email. Or… shifting text tone 🙄

So that confirms my fears that in the future bots will communicate with each other instead of us. Which is madness. I want to talk to a real human and not a bot that translates what the human wanted to say approximately around 75% accuracy devoid of any authenticity

If I see someone’s unfiltered written word I can infer their emotions, feelings what kind of state they are in etc. Cold bot to bot speech would truly fuck up society in unpredictable ways undermining fundaments of communication.

Especially if you notice that most communication, even familial already happens online nowadays. So kids will learn to just ‘hey siri tell my mom I am sorry and I will improve myself’.
Mom: ‘hey siri summarize message’

I wouldn’t rely on LLM to read anything for you that matters. Maybe it will do ok nine out of ten times but when it fails you won’t even know until it is too late.

What if Eula itself was chat gpt generated from another chat generated output from another etc… madness. Such Eula will be pure garbage suddenly and cutting costs no one will even notice relying on ai so much until it’s all fubar

So sure it will initially seem like a helpful tool, make key points from this text that was generated by someone from some other key points extracted by gpt but the mistakes will multiply in each iteration.

Yeah if we applied modern politics to corporations I think a lot of solid bbq could come out of it.

We need to start to shit on exxon like we shit on republicans
