- Comment on Move over powered milk, it onion time 1 week ago:
Easy.
No time limit?
Doesn’t say I can’t cook it or pair it with other things?
I’ll have an onion with some chicken and peppers in a nice stir fry over the next couple days.
I expect my rebates in the mail.

The battle between those creating AI and it being ethically immoral to support the companies building it by exploiting the public vs using the immoral tool to provide greater access to the public in retaliation to the big evil corporation trying to exploit and extract wealth from the public.

- Comment on If the legalization of drugs reduces crime, why can't the same be said about the legalization of guns? 4 weeks ago:
Fully legalizing hard drugs comes with its own minefield, too. Cigarettes are powerfully addictive, and companies have exploited their legal status to make them ubiquitous. They intentionally market them to children and use product placement to ensure that smoking is seen as “cool”. I can only imagine how things would go if companies like that were in the methamphetamine business.
And where are legalized cigarettes now? And this isn’t happening with marijuana with all the “it’s not bad, you can’t OD from it, it’s not addictive” talking points? Take it from someone who it adversely affects and who knows people who have been addicted. It can ruin your life and the withdrawals are a whole different ballgame as they’re more mental than physical and can last for months or even years.
One of the biggest reasons for the decline in ciggarette use, and what is often paired with calls for legalization, is education and treatment. Using taxes from the legalized product, taxed similarly, to invest in education and treatment as well as regulating production so that dosages are consistent and it avoids diluted product that can be cut with other, more dangerous dosed drugs like fentanyl. In so doing, creating a safer market and driving people towards safer practices and understanding, it reduces drug related crimes as a black market no longer needs to exist.
You have the same answer here
I definitely believe that removing the prohibition on drugs is the first place to start if we want to improve the problem. I just also know how fundamentally powerful hard drugs can be, and without an accessible off ramp for addiction as well as available materials to stay safe while you’re addicted, the life problems that come with drug abuse are likely to continue in one form or another.
Drug addiction is almost always a symptom of something else. People take the shortcut of placing all the problems caused by the drug, but if it weren’t one, it would be another. Systemic abuse, undiagnosed mental illness, etc. The off ramp needs to be education and assistance programs, treating people with empathy, using the funding from decriminalization (and the funds clawed back from the wasted efforts on “the war on drugs.”)
But, we live under capitalism. Better to drip feed expensive medications, expensive rehab, and criminalize drug use so that for-profit prisons can have a steady supply of slave labor. Lack of education and support also ties well to reoffense. The point of prisons we weretold is reformation and the indivudual would return to society. Naaahh, private prisons need that slave labor, let’s criminalize homelessness as we push to replace labor with AI!
- Comment on Amazon has over 1 million robot workers. What’s next for human employees? 4 weeks ago:
Slavery. That’s the point. You are simply fuel for the exploitation machine. Homelessness is criminalized, so you’ll be put into a for profit prison and forced into manual labor.
Meanwhile, billionaires escape to their tropical island bunkers and ride out the climate collapse in the ultimate “fuck you, got mine’.”

I did see that, the creator of /pol/ met with him the day before it was created. And seems like they did quite a bit to foment Gamergate.

What if one’s own pursuits is to lift others? To light the eay for others so that they do not make the same mistakes stumbling in the darkness. Would their pursuits not then be fulfilled?

Too bad Epstein isn’t here to control the narrative with Bannon and make a bunch of ostracized, angry gamers get angry at games journalists and go vote for Trump again ~~
Still wild to me that that was actually a thing. I only recently learned Steve Bannon was the CEO of a WoW gold farming company.

- Comment on Looks like Cyberleek is selling the full ISO. Any of y'all willing to bite the bullet? 2 months ago:
Feel free to report it if you think so. I’m not really repeatedly asking for anything imo, but if it gets taken down, so be it. I posted about stuff in the news and was curious if anyone would be investigating. If not, that’s cool.
- Comment on Looks like Cyberleek is selling the full ISO. Any of y'all willing to bite the bullet? 2 months ago:
Because its been posted by all the gaming news articles already?
Regardless, I imagine those who are investigating Cyberleek and trying to help Rockstar find him will hop onto this shortly.
- Comment on Looks like Cyberleek is selling the full ISO. Any of y'all willing to bite the bullet? 2 months ago:
I literally say beware and protect yourselves. It’s highly likely it is a scam. There are people that make content off breaking these scams.
Is it shitty to ask an electrician to do electrical work for you?
The real scam is paying $100 for a digital rental. Or worse yet, a pre-order of a digital rental which can’t run out of inventory, but 🤷♂️
- Comment on Looks like Cyberleek is selling the full ISO. Any of y'all willing to bite the bullet? 2 months ago:
Unless it was just dropped 🤷♂️ time will tell. Just curious if anyone, especially those who like to browse TOR deep links and enjoy finding out how bad some malware is by usinv isolated VMs or hardware, would be interested in testing it considering this is “the one” that’s been causing Rockstar and Take2 trouble this last month.
- Comment on Looks like Cyberleek is selling the full ISO. Any of y'all willing to bite the bullet? 2 months ago:
Because I know there are people much more technically savvy than I am that could more properly test it than myself, isolating a VM, verifying the download link should one exist, etc.
And given the amount of essentially verified leaks given the litigative presence from Rockstar and Take2, there’s more credibility than a random forum post somewhere.

- Comment on Dwarf Fortress' creator says the industry's in shambles over AI and layoff-happy CEOs: 'Everyone I know, their bosses are slowly getting psychosis' 2 months ago:
“Slowly”
Let’s get something straight. The people at the top are all hired by the CEO and want money. They tell the CEO what a special smart boy he is, the biggest dickus around.
This has been the way of things for decades.
CEOs and higher ups give themselves their own “yes man” psychosis and it flows down the higher up you go.
AI is just socializing the yes man sycophancy psychosis our “corporate leaders” have been experiencing by isolating themselves from society and only surrounding themselves with an echo chamber of paid sycophants.
