Sometimes they just randomly show up at your door and tell you to let them in and feed them. Then you need to get a box for them to shit in. Next thing you know… you start shitting in a box too… because it’s time for your colon cancer screening.

Yea, that’s fair… I did a bad job of making my point. I tried multiple different vitamin D supplements, none of them did anything beneficial for me.

They don’t do anything. Go outside more.

Concur about the lack of black and white. Interestingly enough, a major portion of your list of evils are things that I consider good. Addictive drugs are bad… everything else has a helpful, practical use, but could also be bad if used by a bad person.

I’m really only familiar with Meetup from that list, and yea, I agree. I think they inherently aren’t intending to do harm as a company, but what if domestic terrorists / cultists were to use meetup to find other likeminded individuals. Meetup may be in part responsible for getting harmful people together and they may never be aware of it. Sure, it’s a hypothetical, but not entirely outside the realm of possibility.
IMO, mistreating and underpaying people does make the world worse. It’s not the company mission, but yea… the whole capitalist machine thing. It’s hard to escape the output, which tends to harm at least someone.

There’s exceptions, but almost every company harms at least someone, or some thing through their existence. Maybe not the world as a whole, maybe just a small portion of it, but considering the nature of doing business itself, it’s a difficult problem to get around.

I don’t work for Google, and you’re not wrong, but I am not sure they’re totally wrong either. I honestly believe that a majority of companies around today are making the world worse, at least, for most companies there’s an argument that can be made. I’m having some difficulty thinking of an exception right now.

I’m not going to even attempt to understand what this dumb shit is supposed to be about. This shitheel should be in prison, not on Xhitter.

- Comment on Google CEO: If an AI bubble pops, no one is getting out clean 2 weeks ago:
Due to the sheer number of articles surrounding the AI bubble popping; I’m coming to the conclusion that this has already started.

They are regressives
- Comment on A place for conservatives 3 weeks ago:
You’re 100% right but we repealed the fairness doctrine in 1987, and ever since that, we’ve had politicized information cycles. Republicans in 1987 knew they’d have to lie to continue holding power; but they also have been enshitifying education too. A lot of people are just simply undereducated and comforted by their echo chambers. Have that happen for 40 years. Here we are.
- Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin 3 weeks ago:
People that have been windows users for years that have been recently taking steps to remove windows from their lives aren’t going back when they remove AI (also, doubt that is ever happening). They’re pissed off, and if they manage to get their stuff working in Linux there’s absolutely no reason to switch back.

It’s almost the same thing as saying “I hate the system that we’re in but I still don’t want to fail.”
I really see no issue at all.

- Comment on Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race 4 weeks ago:
China WILL win the AI race and that’s because they invested in infrastructure and their power grid.
The US could have done that too, but we gave the money to billionaires instead. Building a surveillance state doesn’t fix any of the mistakes we made and they’ll still win the AI race.
- Comment on 'Big Short' Michael Burry bets $1bn on AI bubble bursting | LBC 4 weeks ago:
You can’t with any reasonability.
If you want to gamble on WHEN the AI bubble will pop, you buy large amounts of cheap puts on big-tech at a price substantially lower than where it is today.

He’s highly regarded.
