They are a bunch of bullies who bully other people. Bullying is nothing new, if anything it’s a mark of pride. No, what they can’t deal with is not fitting in, somehow being different. This is why they are antivax. They would rather have dead kids than some neurodiverse weirdos. Also dead children give you a huge sympathy bonus, whereas a weird kid gets you uninvited from get togethers.
So, if you really want to upset them you have to point out just how weird their weird shit is.

Ya, but this is not a truck any more than the Hyundai Santa Cruz is a truck. It’s UTE. And anyone who does this to their Santa Cruz would also deserve to be mocked.
In his defense, it is a pretty good comment (there’s multiple layers going on) while being a bit of a sleeper at the same time. And given the size of the Lemmy audience, it’s not likely to ever get the number of votes it deserves.
And in your defense, I doubt he really thought it through that deeply, and instead just posted the first idiotic thought that came to mind.
I know what you mean, I also often wonder what it would have been like if you had different parents.
It’s when you are being double penetrated by 2 guys with average sized penises.
I was originally imagining North Korea as being a basic job recruiter that could actually get you into interviews for a real job, but just black market because doing anything with North Korea is illegal.
But the other way they would just be normal contractors (still black market or course), which is the way most big companies are going anyway.
Of course, I really just want to know how they keep getting hired for jobs when I can’t even get a response or an interview.
You mean the Rambo/Dirty Harry worshiping generation? The generation of gun welding loaners who could take on the world all by themselves? The ones that pulled themselves up by their boot straps without help from anyone?
Because I have no clue who you are talking about.
I would totally agree with you if it was 10 years ago. But we have already had a Trump administration that failed miserably, killed millions of people, and had record low approval ratings.
I go out of my way to avoid Fox News and it’s ilk, but I still have to deal with it. There’s no way for these people to have spent the last 10 years without being exposed to differing opinions and facts that expose at least some of the lies. The people who still “believe” in Trump do it willfully. They don’t want to be wrong, so they purposely ignore those things that they don’t want to know. They want something that Trump provides so badly that they are lying to themselves. This is also why they are so vocal about their insanity. They have to keep yelling it at the top of their lungs to drown out the little voices in the back of their heads. The problem is Trump only has one thing to offer and that’s hate.
There’s the real black market niche I’d be willing to buy into.
“Pssst, hey buddy, I got this high paying job with good health plans, lots of vacation, and 100% remote… The only downside is that…”.
“I GIVE NO FUCKS! JUST TELL ME WHO I HAVE TO KILL!”.
“Woah there bud, we just need you to send some cash to North Korea and give us 5 stars on…”
“I WILL KILL ANYONE WHO GIVES YOU LESS THAN ALL OF THE STARS!”
I think we all know that most of the Right’s anger is due to repression. I think this AI needs to start confessing to the deep and sordid things that make him so angry. Confessing his deep and all consuming desire for pediatric necrophilia should really unburden his soul.
That is true.
For those of us who are old enough to remember peak Google, it is understandable.
They revolutionized and opened up so many things that were grossly monopolized before they got involved. Android broke the telecoms insane grip on cell phone designs and features. Several people have already mentioned how Google fiber changed things in local connectivity, but Google dramatically changed global connectivity way before Google fiber. There used to be only a few international (under sea) connections, and not only was it slow and congested, but entire continents could just drop off the internet for weeks or even months at a time. They broke MS Office’s death grip on basic productivity tools. There was a time where private individuals, even grade school students were required to buy an entire professional productivity (Office) in order to deliver basic school work like writing essays. I can think of almost a dozen ways right off the top of my head that they revolutionized the world and really did take the “Do no evil” slogan to heart.
But, as with every company that “goes public”, they slowly changed from "Do no evil’ to “Do know evil” and now they are exactly the soul and life destroying parasites that they used to free us from.
It will take at least a year for full on enshitifcation to ramp up, so you could always just switch once it goes to shit.
“ran a survey”, this was the only clue I needed to realize that they never planned to do it in the first place. Surveys are so easy to manipulate that if someone tells you they made a decision based on a survey, that you can immediately assume that what they are really saying is that they made a decision that they knew would be unpopular, obviously biased, or otherwise disastrous, but they wanted to blame the decision on “other people”.
And holy shit, she’s 50? That’s three miles of bad Tennesee road.
Alcohol can be rough on the body.
FYI, most newer cars have a way for you to turn off the auto lock feature. It is usually a setting in menus, but some might have you do things like close all the doors, turn the car on, and then hold the unlock button for 10 seconds.
Worst case scenario is it has to be done through the programming tool, so if you can’t figure out how to do it yourself, then the next time you have it serviced tell them to turn off the auto-locks.
If I remember correctly, when auto locks were first introduced some countries saw them as dangerous so automakers were required to provide a way to turn it off.
Maybe Uber is trying to start a new dating app. “The best way to pick up chicks is to trap them in your car.”
Spying.
Clinton was the one that started selling off the helium reserves. Obama signed something that changed shit about it, so he certainly didn’t do anything to help the situation.
