Boooooooo.

Make no mistake, I am not confusing the two. In fact, the whole point of my previous post is that the problems come from the latter and not the former.

Social programs and monopoly busting worked quite well in American history, despite what many people may currently think.

We have governments, they should be for the people. They can craft legislation that protects people and ensures their economic livelihood.

Only in Australia

In fairness, this is not a new danger. Koch media affiliates have been doing this for decades.

It’s still absolutely dangerous, just didn’t need AI to be so.

You’re a grown ass person, you can make your own decisions.

Historically speaking, “adapt and move on” is a euphemism for “live in abject poverty if you don’t already have another skillset or income stream.”

For example, look at the Luddites. While the term is now used to refer to people who oppose progress, they were originally a group of craftsmen who opposed the industrialization caused by the invention of the loom. While the tech in itself is objectively good, it was the implementation by the elite class that threatened their livelihoods. They went from making decent livings in their skilled crafts to having the options to either 1) work for pennies in triple shifts at dangerous factories, or 2) fuckin riot.

I’m not arguing on behalf of the Luddites, but context is important. In order for “adapt and move on” to be viable, there needs to be a system in place that values the humans involved.

It’s called b

Fucking Pinellas County. They’re such a special breed.

I actually had a similar situation. I found out I had a neighbor stealing my wifi a few years ago because of BT shenanigans.

I gave the guest wifi pw to the previous neighbor, who must’ve written it down somewhere. The new neighbor was a douche who kept piggybacking off of it to watch stuff with his shitty little kid, so I’d occasionally get notifications on my network. When I confronted him about it, he got belligerent and threatened violence.

So I paired to his device and blasted porn at full volume.

Shoebills are a little closer in size, and they’re still around.

Sorry, op. I’m locking this one up to prevent this discussion from getting out of hand. Rule 5.

I can help as well, if you want. I already mod a few communities and check the feed a couple times a day.

Publix has great cheese in general for decent pricing. But holy fuck did everything else get so much more expensive in the last 3 years. Over a decade ago, Publix prices were comparable to Winn Dixie and only slightly above Sedanos or Presidente. Nowadays Publix makes Whole Foods look like Aldi’s.

The fried chicken is still worth it though.

Well, are you?!?

Hello fellow liberal gun owner! It’s good to see more of us out here. It fucking annoys me to no end whenever we get lumped together with that nonsense.
