even better stop joining major platforms like social media and then they won’t be able to create data sets. Be a leach, especially when they give it away for free, but don’t contribute to the project. Understand how it works, sure. But it seems like most of humanity says they don’t want something, yet they do the contrary. It’s like we choose to comply before we even ask to comply for the fear of missing out. But if you look at what is today, what are you really missing out on?

Artificial intelligence is really just a Swiss army, knife, version of a search engine. It serves the interest of the ruling elite and is a way the uber wealthy can make America stupid again or even dumber than dumb. Like we move forward fast but we always miss the point and we’re always putting out fires that once were easily manageable. The code base is growing we’re all saying a lot of nothing. It’s really just drowning out voices and good ideas just to centralize everything. It’s about power. It’s about control. It’s about the man behind the curtain in the wizard of Oz. I like technology a lot and I would like it to be in the hands of working people and not the uber wealthy. So I am no techno optimist at all, not until we fix that issue.

I still struggle with a use case for artificial intelligence in my own life. I play around with it all and I’m just like, it doesn’t do a good job. Also, I think humanity is missing the plot, you know? Like, we don’t need government. If government isn’t going to do government. Government serves the people, not corporations. Or at least it should. I don’t know, I think we’re entering in times. At some point, I think people will pray for nuclear war, because life will be so miserable. That it would be better than just to end it all.

This is an example of corporate terrorism sponsored by our own government. Elon Musk loves to see himself as the villain in Ready Player One. And this is not a joke you can look it up. Big tech is waging war against American citizens, and no longer do we have any control of our government, and the Democrats will not save us. The electoral processes will not save us. This is just hard for some people to accept, that’s why things have to fall apart before they get a clue. Unfortunately, those that are wiser are going to feel the flames first.

I actually have like tons of TVs that I buy from the thrift store, so that’s wrong. I’m just like obsessed with helping people find ways around Google. You can have a better experience with just finding an old dusty laptop. I would just get an old crappy laptop and a crappy monitor and call it a day. I usually use computers in an active way, instead of a passive way. I like to find solutions around big tech for pennies. There’s like a thousand ways to skin a cat, bruh.

There is a way to connect your phone. Wireless with Wi-Fi or on a network without using a Chromecast. youtu.be/RkpQqmNRXic
