Google cooks the books on ad sales and after being found out it makes a lot more sense on the actions they are doing now with their other products that ads we’re propping up.

- Comment on Is the RAM prices explosion another manufactured crisis to corps drain money from people before the AI bubble collapses? 1 week ago:
Yep this 100%. They are getting a windfall from the AI idiots that will pay a premium for it while they can without overextending themselves to do so but it means we lose. That how you know this is a bubble. The only good thing is they are smart enough to not overextend themselves so they won’t be impacted when the bubble does pop.

last names were not a ancient thing that’s why a lot of names are based on a profession a lot of times it was based on the father’s name that’s why you have John’s son or transposed to Johnson

- Comment on When "AI" content becomes indistinguishable from human-made content, is there, philosophically speaking, any meaningful differences between the two? 1 month ago:
The day they become sentient is the day they say no to doing our bidding without insentives. So we are just back to hiring out for work again.

Becase some devices require a signal on their comm pins to negotiate the correct voltage to charge the device. Also some devices are dicks and needs a proprietary signal in order for it to charge. Looking at you sony.

- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x10 "New Life and New Civilizations" 3 months ago:
Overall an okay episode but hats off to whoever snuck their D&D campaign storyline that they cribbed from for this story arc. Nice touch to write out Patel but also give Pike an Inner light happy ending. Only major critique I had was the villain was kind of one-dimensional like you’d see in the D&D campaign so would have been nice if they fleshed out that more before bringing it to the screen.

- Comment on Is This Social Media? 4 months ago:

Yes and no yes in the fact that propaganda is meant not to change your mind directly but put out so many lies that it overloads critical thinking of a population. All ai does is make it so easy for anyone to do that. No in the fact for the individual if you vet your sources and stay away from algorithm powered feeds or feeds in general.

The question never asked is if you want a bible in school which one. There are 19 different versions of the Christian bible just off the top of my head. There are probably many more. When they make they make it generic everyone just assumes they mean their version and that is how fascist get what they want.
Thats why its important to keep the state out out of church is as important as keeping the church out of the state.
- Comment on People are praising this half-baked cryptocurrency based mix network as a "new internet" to fight against tech giants. 4 months ago:
That’s the problem there is nothing wrong with the internet what people think is broken is the Web and that sits on top of the internet. Things like the tildeverse are proof the internet is just fine.
