I think China has too much to gain by looking like the word's stable alternative to America. What really gets me depressed is their current trajectory towards cultural homogeneity,…

I've certainly noticed a seismic shift in how bad support and updates have gotten with some 3rd party vendors we use, and the answer they come back with is always that they're expe…

I'm having trouble thinking of groups of people who are even able to change members outside of modern capitalism. Through most of human history we've been stuck with our group or t…

I am both shocked and not shocked at how many people support incel garbage reasoning here.

I think the tragic thing is that not everyone has a price, just the vast majority.

It doesn't need to be most, it just needs to be enough. I dont think it's close to a majority, but at the same time its more than enough.

"Glorified" is underselling it. Thier ability to microtarget anyone based on any trait is basically the death of democratic discourse. Now, if you're saying the data is just there …

So we should just do whatever unethical thing we want, as long as it isn't strictly illegal/we won't get caught? Actually that does seem to be the Silicon Valley mantra. I dont kno…

A lot of that turned out to be pushed by Epstein and his associates. It's not hard to figure out why they would enjoy a world with lots of racism, sexism and general inequity. Its …

The US bullying other countries to follow its interests has also existed before a year ago. People are just waking up to the idea that it's going to get worse and not better.

Don't worry, China is coming out pretty far ahead so I'm sure we'll still be in a unipolar world when this is all over, and you can sleep safe at night. I imagine you didn't know.

I've been thinking of this too. I think Steam is, and I'll even throw in Mozilla, despite a few missteps. Gog seems okay, but that's much smaller. If we can expand to large tech or…

It does concern me, and it should have concerned them enough to fall on their sword for their principals. They have FU money, if they're not willing to, who is?

17. Top members of government, education and business (particularly tech) part of pedophile kidnapping and rape cult that has been shaping reactionary culture for decades now. I se…

If they don't support any principles then it isn't a side worth supporting. If my choice is between China 1 and China 2 then idgaf.

AI's approach: * User has history of anti AI rhetoric, increasingly agitated and unstable. * User has removed all phones and cellular connections from their car. Increase monitorin…

It's so much worse than that. The government actively encourages a lack of business ethics. Heck, it started the term with a crypto rug pull. Money continues to funnel upward to al…

Not to mention that he and his cohorts had such close ties to Epstein that I find it impossible to imagine he didn't know exactly what was going on. This is someone who's known for…

Don't worry, I'm sure that trusting these systems to a group of ghouls from the Epstein files won't have any negative consequences.

Elon just needs a wild party to blow off steam.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that there are no heroes to cheer for.

What's the deal with the settlers? That's really where I lose all faith Isreal has good intentions.

And given his penchant for information control, I dont doubt he knew everything that was going on.

Part of it is also that when we look back we think of people's suffering as sacrifices that needed to be made. Now that it's us being sacrificed it really shifts a lot of people's …
