Do you own a pair of wireless headphones?

I ain’t buying shit if it ain’t got a rotary dial!

…a piece of software that has encouraged suicide, and is proven to create psychosis?

Yeah, it’s just software. My dudes.

Don’t do heroin, kids.

Today, on technology news:

RNG generated 666!

Find out other shocking numbers it generated!

Fucking magnets, how do they work?

SpaceX is a garbage company that only proves my point. It’s a leech of taxpayers’ money for private gains.

NASA has achieved much more, much more time ago. If it wasn’t for the brain-drain caused by SpaceX, and the cashflow that was directed away from it, it could’ve been much more useful.

Now all we get is the dickhead and his followers exploding rockets “to Mars” (lmao) for shits and giggles.

By that logic, pretty much any activity we do exacerbates the crisis

Almost the right conclusion. Some activity exacerbates more than other. Sending rockets to space is the “more” one.

The climate is not being fucked because we’re launching rockets

Exactly! Not yet. Let’s keep it that way.

I understand we’re all fans of science-fiction here, and especially gullible when billionaires promise us “colonies in Mars next year”, but try to keep it grounded since manufacturing isn’t even sustainable yet here on earth.

Bingo.

I’m fine with national space programs and whatnot.

I’m not fine with private sector in space.

“Absolutely nothing to do with each other”

Do you think rockets burn unicorn farts and exhaust pixie dust?

We have enough morons sending their penis extensions to space for shits and giggles, we do not want to “start manufacturing in space” so capitalists can fuck the climate up even more for the rest of us.

Why? Why do we need to pollute the earth even more so that the capitalists can gain more capital outside of it?

We have crises here that are only exacerbated by this dumb need to send people to space.

Wrong, it’s just outsourcing.

You’re making a false-equivalence. A director is actively doing their job; they’re a puppeteer and the rest is their puppet. The puppeteer is not outsourcing his job to a puppet.

And I’m pretty sure you don’t know what architects do.

If I hire a coder to write an app for me, whether it’s a clanker or a living being, I’m outsourcing the work; I’m a manager.

It’s like tasking an artist to write a poem for you about love and flowers, and being proud about that poem.

How to be a tech shithead:

1. Be disproportionately rich
2. Surround yourself with yes-men
3. Disregard any valid criticism as “haters”
4. Become completely out-of-touch
5. Get your mind blown by most basic, obvious things.

Somehow, this guy is the CEO.

Wow, so mean.

I stopped reading after the first two sentences.

Spending the amount of time required to produce professional art when an income isn’t directly guaranteed is a risk most of us can’t take, FYI.

Because you don’t care about making art, so you choose comfort and financial safety. It has nothing to do with “Privilege”.

You’re talking about outsourcing art, but then complain about who actually make art.

Art isn’t output/result. That’s exactly what you’re getting from your gen slop.

“Privileged” lol.

If you couldn’t make a poem before “AI”, you still can’t make a poem now.

No I im the current “AI”.

1. Cost. You can get performant brand new phones for $200 that will last you 2+ years

2. OS-wide adblock. I cannot comprehend how iOS users live with out it. I see my GF using her phone and every other scroll of something is an ad.

3. Some other sailing-of-the-seas things that I’m not comfortable posting online about, but it saves me a lot of money on subscriptions from big corporations.

Naw, it’ll just be “software” and not “magic thinking machine”. Chatbots and “virtual assistants” existed before, just no one was using them because they’re a) cringe, b) faster and more efficient to do it yourself.
