the vast, vast majority
Not to disagree with your main point - everyone deserves to be paid - but porn scales so well that we might already have enough free amateur production for everyone. It just doesn’t get to the top of SEO-optimized searches.

No such thing. Live out loud, grow a big beard if you want.
- Comment on Peak technology 9 months ago:
That’s very hard to do in practice when you make a thousand little choices a day - the time spent researching everything would be astronomical.
The solutions we offer should take rational ignorance into account; shaming victims won’t make it go away. Where do your food and clothes come from?
- Comment on They lied to us 9 months ago:
Mmmmm, steamed hams!
- Comment on I heard you wanted more 9 months ago:
Somewhere beyond “offensive”.

I think it’s because he just did the wordplay and didn’t ask “our opinion on” jhoes, which raises the jhoish question.

Actually, yes. Maybe I should…

4600/5000ths of the way to their goal is just tragic. Someone needs to finish it.

If it really ramps up, we could share block lists too, like with ad blockers. So if a friend (or nth-degree friend) blocks someone, then you would block them automatically.

Whatever. Krill always throw off all polls through sheer numbers.

We all expected the AIs to launch nukes, and they simply held up a mirror.

Some of them are, if you raise up your arms and scream really loud. Maybe not the one pictured though.

No problem, I’ll start my own insurance company!
- Comment on Microsoft lays off 1,900 Activision Blizzard and Xbox employees 10 months ago:
Hey now, it’s impossible for them to coordinate on employment to prevent recessions!
Because every time they coordinate they form a cartel that causes a recession.

Yeah but with the higher reload time, he might not have been ready for the first shot.

Neoliberals: “OK how about we keep doing the thing that makes them care only about next quarter, but give them a $1 fine every time they’re negligent?”

Protip: you can quickly check a bunch of plastic dice for bias by floating them in a cup of salt water and rolling them around.
- Comment on OpenAI CEO Altman: future AI depends on energy breakthrough 11 months ago:
The whole point of mining/staking/whatever is to be expensive. Governments can pigouvian tax it to high hell, mine workers can unionize, and it won’t make any difference to users whatsoever. So there’s literally no benefit to more energy use.
Bitcoin mines can’t do general computing. They use ASICs that can only mine.
- Comment on Big Tech has already made enough money in 2024 to pay all its 2023 fines 11 months ago:
My country is literally an oligarchy, not a democracy. The oligarchs don’t want to gradually reform based on democratic principles. But they sure want us to think they will.
- Comment on Big Tech has already made enough money in 2024 to pay all its 2023 fines 11 months ago:
We need a total revolution. The people who ought to be fined are the ones buying the laws.

We’ve been able to invent that for like 60 years. It’s on purpose.

Like a scientist but you get paid
- Comment on OpenAI says it’s “impossible” to create useful AI models without copyrighted material 11 months ago:
Apparently they’re going to just make only the little guy’s copyrights effectively meaningless, so yeah.
- Comment on OpenAI says it’s “impossible” to create useful AI models without copyrighted material 11 months ago:
Having read through these comments, I wonder if we’ve reached the logical conclusion of copyright itself.
- Comment on OpenAI says it’s “impossible” to create useful AI models without copyrighted material 11 months ago:
IANAL, why isn’t it fair use?
- Comment on IT support work be like 11 months ago:
Caring about that has been beaten out of them by increasingly absurd password requirements over dozens of systems. They won’t memorize it, won’t write it down physically, and use the web browser to save it.
“But my system is different, I…”
Nobody cares. The password is just a speed bump in doing the thing they actually want to do.
