There’s no AI databases in tibet, Yemen, Sudan etc. climate change yeah, you could make an argument there but that’s a hard sell because these places were going to run out of water eventually anyways, and we didn’t really know of climate change till well into the industrial revolution, and didn’t fully understand the effects until recently. Hell, you could argue we still don’t, but the image is getting pretty clear.
Don’t get me wrong, fuck AI and everyone involved with it, but saying that it’s all AI and corporations buying water right is incredibly disingenuous, at best.

I’m not talking about western nations.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Yeah in many cases, but that’s not the case for a lot of the world. The Middle East and North Africa especially, as well as remote mountainous areas like tibet that rely on glacier melt as their only sources.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
This is not true. A lot of places are quickly running out of fresh water.

And stem professionals are also violence professionals (i.e. military and cops)? STEM tends to be very specific in their knowledge base these days. Yeah, they know how to make solar panels, but do they know where to get those materials, how to mine them? Even 80 years ago, it took several teams of hundreds of scientists to figure out nuclear energy. Lose half that team of specified individuals working together and you just have an idea. And those smart individuals gained their knowledge from smart individuals before them, and same for those individuals.
Look at Greek fire or the pyramids for examples of lost technology that 2000 years later, we still can’t figure out. Losing a scientist here or there is generally not that big of a deal, but when you can’t control how many or who goes, you lose control of the knowledge.

Well then I suspect you don’t see much of anything. It’s happening before your eyes and you don’t see it? Do you see genocide in Palestine? Do you see fascism in America? Do you see plastic trash in waterways? Do you see homelessness? Do you see the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer? How do you not see the obvious outcome? The only reason we’re still making enough food, is because of petroleum based fertilizer. Without that, we’d have lost billions of people already, or they never would have been born in the first place. That’s unsustainable. And as society breaks down, so does the economy that allowed those fertilizers to exist. Billions die, any way you look at it, billions die and civilization crumbles. Which happens first doesn’t really matter.

Bud, it’s just getting started. Wait till the Mississippi is inundated with salt water and flows north depending on the time of day.

‘nobody beats the shit out of inanimate objects like I do’
Lol that being said, violence against technology was bred into us. But if the violence doesn’t work, digital surgery or therapy can also work. 😉

So the sequel got good hit detection and movement? The first games were literally unplayable.
- Comment on Former Dead Island 2 Dev Addresses Delay: 'Boy, That Game Sucked' 4 weeks ago:
The first one was so poorly made that I didn’t bother with the second. They spent far more time designing zombies in bikinis than they did on movement and hit detection that I wouldn’t advise anyone spending ANY money on it. I can’t imagine being that thirsty. It was so bad that unless rockstar made the sequel, I wouldn’t buy it.

They all want the same thing, control of what you can do, say, think, and believe. And will do anything in their power to get it. Regardless of their particular flavor of fascism, it’s still fascism.
