Before blaming AI, blame companies who decided to outsource as much as possible to the lowest priced options, regardless of quality. Once those options became “cost prohibitive” (read, not cheap enough to satisfy shareholders), only then did the rush to develop AI truly begin.

It only stops being a hot dog when it comes out of your ass as it is no longer encased.
- Comment on YSK: if you are visiting Puerto Rico from the mainland US, you can sign up to escort a rescue animal on your return flight to their adopter 6 days ago:
They kind of have their own breed going on on the island.
I believe they are called “sato” which basically means “mutt”.

Oh for sure, I’m just saying that one should never be surprised that the UK is trying compete in the fascist olympics given that they held the title of grand champion for so long.

Who do you think the US learned dystopia and imperialism from? We were part of the kingdom before we were a nation afterall.

- Comment on please don't tell my boss I've been posting memes on the clock 1 week ago:
I only post and comment while I’m busy at work. It’s a good way for me to manage my ADHD when I need to maintain my main focus on the task at hand.
- Comment on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 gets its first teaser, and you'd better "be prepared for sadness" 1 week ago:
I honestly feel that we didn’t truly hit that Cyberpunk dystopia until the past fifteen years. It’s not that multinational corporations weren’t a problem, its that now we have megacorps truly influencing every minute and every aspect of our lives to the point that it is impossible to tell if any thought that crosses our brain is truly our or if it has been somehow tainted by the omnipresence of megacorp influence.
It is ironic that I typed that on my cyberdeck (smartphone) while listening to a conference call with a megacorp (Microsoft) and wearing a auditory neural link (Bluetooth earpiece), then uploaded it to “the net”.

- Comment on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 gets its first teaser, and you'd better "be prepared for sadness" 1 week ago:
Cyberpunk (the genre) prior to 2020 felt like a warning. Now it feels like getting our face shoved in the dump we took on the carpet and being yelled at “look at what you did…bad!!!”.

For sure, but when you are driving cross-country you sometimes do not have a choice because there is nowhere to stop.
- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 1 week ago:
I drive a BMW i4 and one of the reasons I prefer it is because it still uses a number of mechanical options like physical buttons and an actual door handle. I never trusted that flush handle from Tesla, even back when I liked Tesla.

I have a Sprinter van with lane assist for cross country travel. As obnoxious as it is 99% of the time, it has come in clutch a few times when I started to get drowsy and drifted off my lane.
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 2 weeks ago:
A friend of mine met her now husband and father of her child on the free tier of Plenty Of Fish. That was a decade ago though. I’m not sure if the service has degraded since.
