The average person is not deeply aware of this stuff. All y’all don’t have any fucking clue what the average American is like.

Most people are just trying to get through the day. They want to pay their bills and make sure the kids are fed and Sally needs to get to dance class and Bobby has been having problems at school and now the boss wants to get that foundation poured tomorrow so you’re gonna have to stay late, but your wife can’t leave work early to pick up the kids so now you have to deal with that and oh, eggs cost double what they did a year ago and you haven’t gotten a real raise since 2021.

They don’t have time to spend on Lemmy, figure out how to use Linux, learn what a tariff is, or debate the difference between gender and sex, or read about what the Heritage Foudnation does.

Wouldn’t that be something: we choke to death trying to create a supercomputer to tell us to stop doing exactly that

True irony

It’s probably easier to righteously quit your job after a decade of collecting senior executive salary

Also: physics?

AGI: “Climate change odds caused by humans. I am deploying a fix for this from Minot”

Another idea: ditch Twitter and learn to play the ukulele instead

On one hand, I think that kind of shit is lame AF, but on the other hand if someone wanted pay me $200/hr to paint my hog green and vacuum in green Luigi hat, you know I’d be down

Wireless Hidelity?

I’m honestly stunned. If you can’t trust rich capitalists, who can you trust‽

You don’t want to save your old brain chunks and put them back together to see if you can make on old version of you?

Neat. So is Microsoft going to make that loan in cash or…?
