Your way too long and easily compactable post is a good summary why I’m in support of going full throttle on investment in neighboring countries until their standards of living are up to par.

I think it’s a pretty reasonable conclusion to assume that anything that is intelligent past a certain degree(that many humans do not pass) would see value in preserving fellow intelligent life irregardless of morals. But AI becoming smart doesn’t necessarily mean it’s intelligent in the same ways a human is, so it could have a great deal of direct mathematical and scientific analysis but not necessarily have innovation

OP where’s your nearest Denny’s parking lot I have some words I’d like to have with you

Discord’s stranglehold is an oof given it’s basically the opposite of private and 100% scrapes data. Even had bots invisible on servers caught scraping once or twice

I’m not optimistic. He has access to what is quite literally the best medical teams in the world, bar none, and I don’t really think that’s an exaggeration to say.

A much larger segment of people than you think are already off. You just don’t hear about them, because, well, they aren’t online. Lmao

That’s what posts like this miss— collective action works, be it in collective bargaining, politics, or environmental action.

16 is fine. I still use a laptop with 4 when I’m traveling

I’m going to continue laughing at you, you racist.

This is why Americans laugh at European racists. “But the statistics shhhooowwww 🤓🤓🤓”

Not that they shouldn’t criticize — but the shear pretentiousness to come in and pretend it could never happen in their countries, when it already had.

Slightly different colored is a pretty big statement — you can get the same service from a company that pays the workers $45 an hour or one that pays them $22… That’s a life vs working under the thumb of a company. It’s a very large difference between the good and the bad. Capitalism is everything trending towards shit inevitably, but that does not mean that every individual business is shit. It just means someday they will become shit.

I have loyalty to higher prices if they treat their employees right. I’m willing to shell out an extra dollar if it means the employees aren’t getting paid shit an hour

I doubt anyone from Myanmar is on Lemmy

I’m going to go give a myanmar resident whatever the leftist equivalent of star link is just to prove you wrong

UK has its own police state cameras they don’t need to import them from the usa!
