Nothing surprises me about America… Well except if they would make a decision not based on extreme greed. That would surprise me.

Yeah in America it seems the prisons are for profit, so what incentive do they have to rehabitate people when it means less profit?

I never knew this was a thing and it sounds very dystopian. Its almost as if these systems wants people to get as angry and frustrated as possible so they can lock them away.

Absolutely ridiculous that its happening in a legal court system that most people believe in too.

It does make sense, because money and power override whats fair and decent in a society. Thats why all the evil people want money.

You get “attempted murder” in America for setting a wall on fire and smashing glass?

In France, thats a Tuesday.

Isnt it up to the readers of the article to notice and upvote things like this? Lemmy is just a link aggregator. Mods dont read every post. I bet almost everyone has a full time job or student life too.

Report it and upvote the problem and it will be fixed by a mod eventually, and readers will be aware until that happens.

We who use Firefox are very fortunate right now since it still blocks all ads and I hope that will continue forever.

I used chromium to test YouTube without it, and its just completely unusable.

And yet the thread you linked says they are scanning for browser plugins.

Which is very different from scanning our computers…

Thats actually true. There wasnt any military industrial complex with billions to earn from his decisions. In a way, that movie is sticking to the public school version of what our leaders are.

Idiocracy movie was so correct about our future…

Even the president in that movie is gun crazy, and its literally Trump and his advisors.

Maybe they should have looked out for themselves.

Well I use chat gpt and it forgets whats in the files every 20 minutes or so, and I have to upload it again and again…

You can fix it yourself also, just add the command being run to the sudoers file and it will always run as root without needing your input.

Im sure chat gpt can give you the exact command to put in.

Yeah its not a perfect system, has some flaws, but its actual freedom from surveillance and late stage capitalism on the plus side.

Not bad for a free, modern desktop that looks stunning.

So we just need to get rid of all helium and all billionaires will be gone?

This sounds like good news.

Looks like I will keep my computer from 2017 forever at this point…

Wow thats actually more crazy than i though even Microslop would accomplish.

Their stock price is being hammered and for good reason…

Chat gpt will probably also add ads though. They were even open to sex bot chats as I understand it.

The Enshittify will not stop.

100% agree, and its sad that we never get encouraged to think about all the good qualities people actually have also. Almost every single human being here, from 8 billion or so, are happily living in peace with other humans.

People who dont, are world “leaders” , or in prison.
