I think when the dust settles people are going to realize it’s her race to lose. That should answer both questions.

The amount of obvious bot posts and comments just essentially copy pasting the same basic shit all over the place got exhausting.

I’ve probably really only had one job where this was a problem, and it was already a politically charged environment because of the work we were doing. Despite the nature of the work, the drama wasn’t political at all. It was just all young people just out of college airing way too much of their personal lives too freely. With all of the rivalries, infighting, and occasional sabotage, it felt like a 2000s MTV series in there.

I’m not sure I agree about the smell of wooe, but the cambium of many different tree species is perfectly edible. Have at it, my friend!

Self aware idiot.

The ads are in the app store. I don’t really understand why that’s a problem. Although I’m probably the only tool out there that actually likes Windows 11.

Yeah Biden has always said stupid shit too, but you’re not going to convince most people of that. They will assume it’s due to senility. I’d say that’s certainly part of it, but it’s also par for the course for Biden.

I saw a KIA the other day that I was surprised looked as slick as it did. Decided to look into it and saw a lot of positive reviews from owners. Was refreshing to see, but definitely surprising. The market is definitely changing and evolving. Tesla isn’t the only game in town.

Mastadon is your friend. Switch to it and never look back. It is so much better than Twitter ever was.

I feel like narrow AI tools duped me for a while, but the more I started to really use Chat GPT professionally, the more I’ve likened it to professional mimicking software. It essentially works to pyt out responses that sound the most convincing but have nothing to do with putting out responses that are actually at all accurate. These are terrible tools outside of asking basic questions, idea generation, and generally summarizing existing information you feed into it. I use it to help me make lists and better phrase emails and company messages at this point and nothing that actually requires any actual fact finding.

Probably something like the Bronze Era collapse, but with a lot more people and likely a rebound that leads to a slower industrial revolution involving renewable materials. I think the actual collapse will take a lot longer than people seem to think, on the order of the next 75 to 100 years. I think for some, it could happen rather quickly over the next 10-20 years, but for most, it’ll be a slow and meandering quality of life decline over several generations that is already under way. Recovery will take much longer on the order of 100 to 250 years. I am basing this guesstimate on absolutely zero scientific information whatsoever.

Apparently not, considering you barely hear a blip when this shit happens in Ukraine. When it happens in Palestine, people lose their fucking minds.

Truthout.org? What the fuck, Lemmy? Be better…

Baldur’s Gate and Elden Ring I tried to like but just couldn’t get into either of them despite giving them both a fairly long warmup time. I get the allure of both, but the play style or the pacing just aren’t for me.
