Would Microsoft even care? Do normies think about this kind of thing?

Google’s gemini has been delivering some pants-on-head stupid results in the search and Google’s comment on the situation was basically “ya, it do be that way”.

You lack imagination. What happens when the system mistakenly identifies someone as a violent offender and they get tackled by a bunch of cops, likely resulting in bodily injury.

Your comment explains exactly what happens when post-expiration companies like Google try to innovate

Hah well, in my defence I did do the sweaty five guys in a basement startup thing in my 20’s. Nowadays I’m more concerned with paying the mortgage and keeping my newborn alive.

I agree with everything you’re saying. Google hasn’t been the plucky, disruptive underdog in the arena for at least a decade. They’re corporate and bloated. All that matters to Google, and more broadly any incumbent and large corporation, is to inflate the stock price. The products don’t matter, the tech doesn’t matter, all that matters is make stock # go up. The stock is Google’s product.

Unfortunately in the current economic environment, capital is more expensive now and the incumbent heavy weights are doing everything they can to build regulatory moats around their cash cows. I don’t think we’ll see any competing startups with real tech and engineering innovations for some time.

Let’s be realistic here, google still pays out fat salaries. That would be more than enough incentive for me. I’d take the job and ride the wave until the inevitable lay offs.

That being said, it seems like it’s only downhill from here (arguable a few years ago). Reminds me of IBM at this point.

So moving is an insane idea, but transferring huge portions of land between states is totally rational and reasonable?

The windows store never really took off unfortunately. It’s mostly filled with random jank in my experience.

Okay sure,

Number 1: Threatening to jail and/or shoot protestors.

That was a fun game, thanks.

Google loves money. They contribute to open source sometimes, because it will financially benefit them in some fashion.

They don’t “love” or “care” about programmers, Linux or anything like that. If tomorrow it was more profitable for them to axe all their open source contributions, they would.

Rofl. Are you trolling? I can’t tell.

There’s no need to coddle shit people with shit opinions.

and will just isolate people further

Good. Maybe the social consequences of being a shit person will slap them in the face one day.

Ah I see. It’s the democrats fault that deep republican states take advantage of their citizens. It was the Dems all along!

/s. It’s depressing that people actually think this way.

Nonsense, you just need to pull harder on those bootstraps. Pull 'em all the way to the moon.

Please explain to me how advertisers exercising their agency in choosing who to advertise with is “communism” or “socialism”.

Obviously used. I bought a 2 year old Honda civic in 2019 for 18k Canadian. Like OP, I’d be willing to go into the high 20’s, hell I’d even do low 30’s for a sensible EV.

I am not interested in a 60k SUV or a 100k pickup EV. Who the fuck is the target market for those EV Ford pickup trucks?

Anti-immigration, vaccine skepticism, defunding critical social services, anti-intellectual, anti-education, anti- not being gigantic assholes to other people just because we’re not all the same.

This is by no means an exhaustive list.

Seems perfectly consistent to me. Enforcement when financially beneficial.

Same way you install the OS without internet, put it on a thumb drive.
