This is more of a comment on the efficacy of having several media apparatus boast unified lies without consequences.

The absolute lack of consequences for blatantly lieing, omitting truth, falsifying information, and ignoring reality is why we are in this mess.

This can definitely be applied to both left and right, but the Left master plan seems to be “tolerance for all” and the Right master plan seems to be some hybrid business/monarchy system that obviously is trying to enslave 99% of the population.

This toss up is only possible with half the population living in an alternate reality without realizing it.

I fully hear you and agree.

Every 5 days there’s a software update, for something that just changes one or two things slightly - but rarely if ever is it an improvement.

Oh, you want to do this simple thing you were able to easily do 3 days ago?

Now you have to change 4 nondescript settings, use 3 separate hotkey commands, watch a YouTube video, and troubleshoot for hours to get a once basic function to preform correctly.

I’d bet that the AI system will be used exclusively to identify + paywall things you’ll want/need to use your phone.

seems like you want volume control, based on your history you want 1% volume. Subscribe to" basic functions" package to unlock a volume option. Upgrade to “basic functions premium” for up to 5 volume adjustments a week!

Still not enough AI control? The “basic functions unlimited” fully unlocks both volume buttons and for a limited time unlocks the spacebar for 5 minutes an hour from midnight to 6am!

Not yet we’re not!

Still plenty of nature to kill before humanity cannot survive in any capacity without corpo supply chains.

If you’re breathing free air, drinking real water, and actual food can grow out of the ground we’re comparably in cyber paradise given how much worse AI spycraft and corporate ownership will worsen everything exponentially for the non-connected over the next decades

Wtaf is going on in the US lately.

Looking at breaking up Google

Going after Visa for monopolizing debit markets

TD slapped with a penalty worth more than the crime (for the first time ever?)

Going after market manipulators

I’ve never seen the law applied to the wealthy in a way that might actually influence future behaviour (and not for the worst??!)

Wasn’t a big part of Katrina’s destruction from the hurricane effectively stalling over the southern US which caused prolonged and massive local damage?

Not trying to discount either event, mostly worried about the time we get a stalled Helene sized hurricane

They’re ensuring their money keeps flowing. This isn’t about altruism - it’s just their Greed incidentally benefits us.

ISPs are trying to mitigate exposure to lawsuits, prevent costly tracking and tracing responsibilities, and make sure customers can keep paying instead of losing their internet privileges (and their internet bills!)

That peasants like us find this favorable is an unintended bonus.

Completely depends on the shrooms. Like 100%.

I recommend 1 gram increments every hour if you’ve never tried the bag before. Once you know how strong they are, you’ll know how much you need for the trip you want.

I’ve taken 3.5 grams and been fully in control with minimal visual and the biggest experience was mild time dilation.

I’ve taken 2 grams and been unable to use my phone because the screen looks bottomless for several hours, and I’m barely keeping whole thoughts processing.

Blindly advising someone you don’t know to munch 7 grams of random shrooms is a terrible idea. You are correct that anxiety meds can blunt shrooms, but even then 7g is a massive dose.

The initial plan had been for the first fab to achieve full production this year, but the timeline was delayed due to several workforce challenges. These included difficulties in finding skilled workers locally, cultural differences between TSMC’s Taiwanese management and American employees, and a shortage of skilled construction workers that slowed the building process. This delay raised concerns about TSMC’s ability to maintain efficiency with its US operations compared to its facilities in Taiwan.

Recent success in trial production has alleviated some of these concerns. TSMC has confirmed that the Arizona project is progressing as planned, although the company has not commented specifically on yield rates.

They’re a moron spending money on Trump NFT’s. Imagine the poor soul who gets the part of the suit that was Diaper adjacent.

$1,500 might also be considered a steal for a portion of cult leaders authentic shit stained garb.

At first I thought “what’s next, Trump’s on OnlyFans?” which was funny until I realized he’d probably get millions of dollars every day from it.

Yes. Loud things make you cover your ears.

Bombs are louder than bullhorns? Okay you win the loudness competition, but people are still covering their ears for both.

Bad optics, but having a bullhorn shouting in your ear is gonna make you cover your ears.

Doesn’t matter if it’s dead kids, or your favorite Simpson’s quotes, bullhorns are loud.

I really really really wanted to like this game.

Very bad.

Did not like much of anything but the atmosphere which was fairly deadspacey and what I really wanted - but it failed everything else pretty spectacularly.

Maybe the PS4 pro just couldn’t keep up, this game really wants you to melee but is also shooter based which makes combat for both suffer. The melee is extremely repetitive and entirely forced, and your shooting gets affected by the games desire for melee.

Also, the maps are incredibly linear and annoying to navigate but not in a challenging or fun way.

It’s free so no danger of wasting money, but I always gotta shit on this game when I see it in the wild

Thanks, I got it from a hair dryer

Isn’t this how Walmart failed in Germany?

Basically the “roadmap to success” used in other countries failed in Germany/Europe mostly because that “success” was only achievable through “human rights abuses” and “violating labor laws” that aren’t troublesome in parts of the world where labour rights are neutered at every opportunity, and large portions of the population people are too impoverished to afford necessities elsewhere

I’ve wondered about this, killing the “company” never really seemed like that big of a deal, as the structure (both physical building/tool/systems and operationally) don’t simply vanish. You still have the knowledge and skillsets in the population, and the supply chains still exist.

The real problem with these “too big to fail” entities is that the people pulling the levers that cause failures never have any consequences whatsoever.

Yeah, you’ll always need banks, energy, transportation, defence etc - operational mechanisms for exchanging goods, building, buying etc will never go away or ‘fail’ - but their operational practices absolutely could and should change

I’m so sick of the wealth class abusing absolutely everything to guarantee themselves more money than they could ever spend.

Are you suggesting lower cost and some convenience in exchange for incomprehensible risk is somehow a bad deal?

I love my 09 ranger, one of the last years before they scrapped it and went with the Goliath model.

Honestly don’t see the appeal to the huge trucks unless they’re for work, but it’s not surprising that automakers in North America don’t really care to offer what consumers actually want to drive.
