- Comment on Sources to purchase mp3s? 4 days ago:
hot take: if an artist is already popular, then they dont need your support anywhere near as much as a bandcamp artist does. i believe it is ethical to enjoy “popular” music without paying for every megabyte. just go see them when they come to town and buy a t-shirt if the spirit moves you.

- Comment on Taco Bell rethinks AI drive-through after man orders 18,000 waters 2 weeks ago:
ai is taking jerbs, despite the fact that it cannot perform them at all, and the cost is being externalized to the customers. its not about whether they can do what they’re meant to do, its about giving corporations excuses to further drive down human wages.
- Comment on Taco Bell rethinks AI drive-through after man orders 18,000 waters 2 weeks ago:
But despite some of the viral glitches facing Taco Bell, it says two million orders have been successfully processed using the voice AI since its introduction.
how much you wanna bet they’re counting the orders where the drive thru worker had to step in and save the floundering algorithm who could not in fact understand basic speech, or even the purpose of a conversation, as orders “successfully processed” using AI

- Comment on The term carrot and stick doesn't sit well with me. If you hit a donkey with a stick then it's likely it won't trust you enough to accept a carrot later. 3 months ago:
its an archaism. a modern understanding of animal behavior and ethics have both pushed that training modality out, and probably the more successful animal trainers of yore never really relied on it, but people absolutely used to beat the shit out of animals. perhaps not often, and perhaps not horribly, but animal cruelty was certainly common enough to enter the lexicon. see “carriage whip”. see “spurs”. see “bearing rein”. see “branding iron”. etc etc. hell theres even the phrase “spare the rod, spoil the child”.
and this is not the worst place a study of the history of language will take you. remember that european and white north american cultures both (among others) unabashedly practiced chattel slavery for centuries, if not millennia for older cultures.

let’s DELVE.
anybody up for some DELVING?
we could DELVE into literally any topic other than the three word explanation you are begging google to reveal to you whilst weeping silently in your car on your lunch break in line to pick up a cold sandwich behind fifteen door dashers at the burger king drive-thru.
is that what you’d like to DELVE into today?
you precious little organic life form with (i assume) 3-65 fingers?
