You know, sometimes I feel bad about gambling some money away on the stock market and feel a bit like a failure. But then I come across posts like these and I remember that at least I do not fuck up on a colossal scale like this.

Banks: Hold my beer!

And later blame it on the workers that unionized.

Here, have an upvote.

Where I live our stores are closed on Sundays except those located in larger railstations and gas stations.

And right in the time where people should be with their families, in Advent, stores are allowed to open up on the four Advent Sundays and everyone goes fucking wild.

Now, the retail store lobby or whatever it is called here is rallying for stores to be allowed to open up 8 Sundays a year, because ‘people want the convenience to be able to shop on a Sunday’. You know what? No. Fuck those people. Get your groceries on a Saturday or during the week and chill the fuck out on a Sunday.

It’s insane to me how people apparently just can’t go one day without getting something from a store.

I think it’s beautiful to have one day in the week where (most) people just don’t have to work at all. I really don’t like how the hypercapitalism of the US just swaps over to Europe more and more.

Yes, but the guys who made the profit will be hailed as successful business people while the people advising for a responsible approach will be condemned as fucking blockers of innovation and success of the business. The idiots at the top who spew out their shit are glamourized while the people cleaning up at the bottom are the joke of society.

Ah yes, please acknowledge the good we are doing in this world: The bare fucking minimum.

What hardcore Linux users don’t seem to really get is this: The vast majority of people who need to use computers simply do not care about anything you just said. They absolutely don’t. They simply want to press a button to boot the device, use the apps they need and maybe even play a game and that’s it. That is what Windows does for them.

The average user is overwhelmed when the desktop icons have been moved.

I love Linux and it is on a great way to being used by a wider audience and it’s great it provides the freedom it does. But it still has its quirks that makes it too hard to use for 95% of users.

If you want Anarchism, just say so instead of using vague answers?

And the thing with “Educate yourself” is so fucking lazy and a dumbass argument if you claim to have the answer?

No, you are not elaborating on your better alternatives. We KNOW that democracy is nort perfect. We are just looking for a solution that is doable in todays world. So now you come in and claim to somehow have a better way to do it. But when questioned, your answers are very vague, we have to pull all the info out of your nose. This tells me you probably don’t have any better solutions or just some vague idea of one and no real world application for it.

Of course I would try to work it out. But you just assume this always happens, but what if it DOESN’T?

So some form of tribalism? And what if you generally like living in your consensus community but one thing rubs you wrong and you’re against it? You just leave and look for a community where you agree with everything 100% all the time? Good luck with that.

In a group… you mean a very limited setting where you can discuss directly with everyone and get direct feedback in real time from everyone?

How do you suggest that this might work on a large scale, with millions of people?

Edit: And if for example 10 million people somehow found consensus and then one guy is like “lmao no”, everything gets canned?

Why don’t you enlighten us on the other options then? I’d love to hear it.

I fucking hate these piece of shit cars. I will never not think that they all have to compensate for something.

Wow, most of these points just sound like a responsible way to handle all the bullshit requests from employees. I’m not saying make it unnessecarily painful for employees to request changes. However, I currently work at a company that did the “just do it” approach for years, got big with it and now our department needs to clean up the bullshit of many years to get the company up to code with whatever regulations we are under and people still think we can continue working just like that.

It’s not about AI specifically. It’s about the awareness that, as soon as you post it to social media, your personal information is not under your control anymore. There was and is still a good reason why you should not post personal info on the internet, even on seemingly “safe” spaces like social media pages.

But people in general don’t care anyway and they won’t care about this headline too.

What the fuck. Now go after their clients.
