    What nuance is missing? The above comment is a list of facts.

    Do their boots taste good? Just because you are nice to the oppressors, doesn't mean they won't come for you too.

    I think they know exactly what they were doing with the naming. They were and are absolutely ok with the evil connotations and uses

    Because this is what capital has told us. Capital always wants to reduce the labour cost to $0.

    I'm not sure there is much worth in imitating a Roman Emperor. They were violent megalomaniacal psychopaths to a man. There is little, about Marcus as a human being, I would consid…

    Given the documented behavior of ICE that is clearly false. They arrest people here legally all the time, torturing them.

    ICE should be disbanded and most of its leadership jailed for their crimes.

    Anything bad for Wall Street is generally good for the rest of us.

    Completely agree. It is deeply irresponsible for OpenAI to release this product. They should held liable for malpractice for every incorrect statement and advice provided by it.

    Beyond the ad driven internet, ad driven content has been at least 150 years old. Ever seen a photo of a pre-WW1 baseball stadium? Or soccer stand? Covered in ads. Old newspapers a…

    Then a new regulation is needed; one that caps the ratio of seconds of ads to minute watched.

    A much better question is why anyone likes AI or see any value in it

    I have yet to see any value generated from AI. Just as useful as NFTs

    This can't happen soon enough. AI is a vacuum sucking up a lot of capital and attention that could and should be put to much much better uses

    I never said homeownership. Just a place to live thats not owned by a ruthless corporation that spends every day trying to squeeze every penny possible out of the tenant

    "Skimping on maintenance" is capitalisms main and really only play. So many issues (housing, transport, utilities) are because "the market" won't ever pay to maintain.

    Ban corporate ownership of residences. Only individuals, Coops or condominiums. Cap how many rentals an individual can own. The government should also build massive amounts of hous…

    Desperately we need to reign in car "style" choices like this. Beyond headlights being too bright, lift kits should be banned and tint regulations should be enforced. Same with sou…
