Must be nice to have an economy.

: “Oh? You need a job? No problem, we have plenty of work that needs to be done!”

: “Oh, you need a job? GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME PEASANT! I AIN’T HIRING ANYMORE!”

I fucking despise this society.

I’m sure if I talked about how this technology is evil, and should be banned. I’ll have hordes of smuglords telling me that actually, scammers are sneaky geniuses that should be praised for outsmarting people.

Or we could…oh I don’t know. Not reward being a conniving snake?

Nothing really, but I’m trained to expect there to be a catch of some kind.

EDIT: bad technophobic take I retract. pls disregard.

Worked retail and I can definitely agree.

Sucked being an unpaid, unlicensed therapist especially as an autistic person.

Self-checkout is one thing I proudly say the baby boomers were right about.

Hope this energy stays with all other AI bullshit. Look, porky wants to disguise us working for him as a service he’s providing us and charge us for it. Porky is lazy, not us.

Most likely there are, but it goes unreported. Nothing the bribery + good ‘ol boy network duo can’t fix.

“Muh freedumz, we need to legalize discrimination because any entity has the right to refuse service to anyone!”

“Nooo. We can’t just refuse service to porky, he’s a paying customer like you and me! Refusing service would be unfreedomy! We can’t just treat them like minorities!”

: “buh…buhh…I innovoooted free labor! I’d rather die than put humans to work!”

I even made that point, but they just insisted that billionaires are immune to being bought.

It’s dumb Randian logic “being a bad person is fine, but the only morally abhorrent thing is if you are bad and pretend to be good, or start off good and sell out. Genuine good people are either nonexistent or complete fools.”

Does anyone know the logical fallacy behind this weird argument I’ve seen on more than one occasion?

“We should trust billionaires because they cannot be bought. I support small government because politicians are corrupt, therefore we should embrace the corrupting force more directly.”

So does that mean shitposters should be paid employees? I mean, their “services” are what bring people to the site in the first place.

I just want tech to know its place. I don’t want the entirety of the US economy to just be a one-trick pony with tech.

I roll my eyes at the current state of things where everyone and their mother wants to be a tech company. Domino’s practically rebranded as a tech company that sells pizzas.

I know that we don’t have to hand it to 'em, but I have to give liberals some praise with the new line of just calling chuds “weird”.

It’s hilarious to me that one side that prides itself in calling anyone who disagrees with them every slur under the book, brings up irrelevant and intentionally fudged data to “prove” someone deserves to die for their skin color/gender identity, and laughs their asses off at every hate crime like they’re joker…and then they scream “HOW DARE YOU!” when just called ‘weird’.

I do hope liberals adopt a new insult for them: deeply unserious.

When it favors the socially acceptable opinions, it’s “leaning”

When it speaks the ugly, blasphemous truth, it’s “bias”. (: not that there’s anything wrong with bias, just don’t be biased against biased people!)

Oh, don’t think of it as a “Union” thing think of it more as a NETWORK!

Based. Fuck AI.

Always suspicious when its one of the few technologies boomers got super hyped up about and wanted to shove into everything.

You know, it’s weird how in the 2000s we were all hyped up by some AI as being able to make jobs safer and life easier, and now AI is something we dread, alongside a whole lot of other tech.

“Oh look, ANOTHER thing that’s a touchscreen that no one asked for. ANOTHER AI that’s going to be forced on me that no one asked for. I hate the future bro.”

Am I just getting old?

Props to Linux for not forcing updates you never asked for with features that actively make the experience worse on you.
