When the alternative is dealing with the absolute horseshit quantity of ads that YouTube desperately wants to shovel down my throat, I’ll take Invidious any day of the week.
It may not be in perfect condition but it’s still good enough to use!
Honestly, this is a really well made article. They’ve got a damn good point.
And like, it’s not even a good gimmick. It’s a serious labour issue because the primary intent behind a lot of AI has always been to just phase out workers.
I’m all for ending work through technological advancement and universal income, but this definitely wasn’t going to get us that, so…
Well, why would I support something that mostly just threatens people’s livelihoods and gives even more power to the 0.1%?
Start killing oil executives? It won’t fix anything but at least they’ll suffer the consequences of their actions for once
Tbh that’s the most characteristic thing about Trump. Saying things so outrageously stupid, so far outside common sense and so detached from reality that people end up thinking about them more than they should.
Love the fact that even when committing to the bit about being anti-privacy they still know the internet is functionally unusable without an adblocker
Also I’m about to say something ignorant as hell but: Isn’t a Browser the same thing as a Search Engine?
Corporate lust for money, my dude
Yeah, they had that one coming. Stuff in there is just straight up insanely overpriced
YES
Finally some sort of actual consequence for the malicious bullshit of the ultra wealthy. We take those Ws
This isn’t just cruel, it’s actually actively disadvantaging Russia in a huge way.
Anyone can be a scientist, and autistic people can go into any profession, but statistically speaking, autistic people tend to be the ones willing to obsess over data enough to get into science and make technical breakthroughs.
Sure, a lot of other countries aren’t exactly saintly when it comes to treating people who act a bit different, but good fucking luck building a tech industry that can compete with the world’s dominant powers if you’re actively removing people that aren’t perfect little obedient clones of the ideal citizen.
Bits operate in a fundamentally different way to neurons. Until we create hardware that can emulate the way neurons process information, we’re wasting time and money chasing ‘AI’
I don’t like AI because it’s literally not AI. I know damn well that it is just a data scraping tool that throws a bunch of ‘probably right’ sentences or images into a proverbial blender and spits out an answer that has no actual comprehension or consistency behind it. It takes only an incredibly basic knowledge of computers and brains to know that we cannot make an actual intelligent program using the Von Neumann style of computer.
I have absolutely no interest in technology being sold to me based on a lie. And if we’re not calling this out for the lie it is, then it’s going to just keep getting pushed by people trying to make money off the concept at the stock market.
Makes sense to me, I think even someone borderline tech illiterate the way I am could create a perfectly good way to remotely disable a machine and prevent anyone studying it to reverse engineer it, I call it ‘Renotely detonated bucket of thermite’
Oh shit, are we getting Team Fortress 3?
I’m not an economist or even especially well informed, but… Isn’t war kind of… You know. Expensive?
Yeah I know it could pay off in the long term if you just swept up a country’s worth of innocents, genocided them and grabbed their land (Hi Israel), but… Fuck up the war badly enough, and there’s not going to BE a long term, just because the economy collapses. Right?
