Whatever libtard, they both posses a Nobel peace prize.

Why doesn’t anyone see this for what it is. They put monitoring for certain keywords but fucked up the code and it blocked some users through incompetence. They fixed the filters, but I guarantee they are sending reports to the White House…

I figure by then, it will all be part of some AI training set one day. Hopefully my shitty writing and bad opinions poison the shit out of it.

Wish I had more upvotes to give, spot on.

Yeah, but I know some pretty smart dumb people and some pretty dumb smart people. I don’t think it’s IQ thing, at least alone (don’t event really buy the whole IQ thing).

I’m sure it works great but it’s like curing a toothache by breaking another one out on the other side of your mouth. My problem with windows isn’t how difficult to use it is, it’s how restricted and how connected it must be. I don’t have full control of the system and I’m required to have external accounts for it to work. Same with chrome.

My data is mine, I don’t want it accessed, owned and controlled by a faceless internet corporation.

So, professionally I do not care what system I am expected to use, they are all functional. If the person signing my paycheck is comfortable with it, so be it (in fact, I’m a big proponent of externalizing risk in a corporate setting). Personally though, I’ll keep up my greybeard routine :).

You know what, fine, let’s see how it goes.

Honestly, I’d love more people to disrupt and try shit (that obviously won’t work, but still…). What I hate is that people try this kind of shit but get billions in a16z money which legitimizes the stupidity from the start. Then when they fail, they use the stupid money to convince others that they couldn’t have been the problem, otherwise they wouldn’t have ever “succeeded”.

Then they get another several billion…

This goddamned grifter economy sucks.

I like it, do it! Have you read Altered Carbon? Has some similar themes. I loved the book, might be some good inspiration. I’ll read yours when it’s out, love that genre :).

It’s the 27% Crazification Factor. I read this years ago and it never seems to fail.

The rich are the problem, something needs to be done about them. I’m hungry.

Edit- ugh, embarrassing misspelling left up too long.

Honestly, I hope you are right. At the moment though, I have very little faith in the American electorate.
