  • I’m an Gen-Xennial or whatever and I hate AI because it’s ruining my ability to solve problems m with search results on the internet. I get imaginary results in the AI panels when I’m incognito and don’t have it disabled, and DDG has been completely fucked by Slop Spam websites in their results.

    Then there are low price eshop clones that copy legit products at half price. The sites usually have a name so close that when checking trustpilot type places, they’ll “autocorrect” your search to the legit site that was cloned.

    It’s finishing off the already largely ruined internet.












  • I love how this blames a group of people for inaction while also itself being another form of inaction.

    Embargo the shit out of us, stop buying our gas and oil, pirate our movies and software.

    We want them out of power too, but most of us are so vulnerable to job loss, home loss, healthcare loss and food instability that there isn’t much we can do until we are properly organized across 50 states, 100 million people spread across 3.12million square miles (8,081,000 million square km). That’s the scale of the situation.

    Also we know national politics aren’t democratic. The senate is intentionally disproportionate representation, but the house isn’t really any better, because the minimum is 1 representatives per state, even when one of the states has 1.5% of the population of another. So Wyoming has 1 rep per 500,000 people, while California has 1 rep per 750,000 people. And in the senate it’s roughly one senator for 250,000 in WY and 1 for 19,000,000 in CA. That means people in densely populated cities (who tend to be higher educated left leaning voters) are way under represented.
