It’s paused. This is not the same thing as derailed. I was simply making a point about the sensationalism in the headline.

Journalism is all about selling the outrage, and the comments show it works very well

I love this for him!

@WrenFeathers@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t get it…

Is he an astronomer? Or is that the name of his company? Seriously, who here had ever even heard of him, or his company prior to this?

Yet somehow this is now major news? Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

At least I can take solace in the fact that I don’t need dumb shit like this to be entertained.

WrenFeathers ,
@WrenFeathers@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t find dumb shit like people cheating on their significant other and getting caught because I’m not an edgy teenager and suddenly, I’m a CEO?

I fucking wish.

Being the CEO of a company, big or small- is exponentially better than being a random dipshit laughing at the folly of others from the safety of anonymity online.

I don’t think you understand what the words “rant” or “trolling” means. Let’s see if I can help:

  1. Two sentences ≠ rant.

  2. It’s not a troll if I mean what I say. In this case, it’s it would be called an opinion.

  3. Trolling would be saying dumb shit like “found the cheating CEO” just because I happen to think laughing at dumb shit is childish.

Bet that this won’t stop anyone from using it. People are sheep. Easily pacified and all too willing to give up whatever is requested for even the tiniest of endorphin boosts.

Am I seriously the only one that understands that this doesn’t matter? His entire base of useful idiots could turn on him tomorrow. It won’t make a difference. They did for him what he needed them to do.

He’s is installed, embedded, entrenched and like all plagues, seemingly untouchable.

WrenFeathers , (edited )
@WrenFeathers@lemmy.world avatar

His base of idiots mattered when they stormed the Capitol.

To him? No, they didn’t.

Then again when one missed by a couple inches

I all but guarantee that entire thing was setup. Only I’d wager that the patsy shooter was promised a different outcome- which also illustrates the fact that he too- didn’t matter.

I’d bet the farm that trumpster-fire has zero fucks to give about what anyone thinks about him or what he does. The only thing we have that says otherwise, is the media, and they’re about as trustworthy as he is considering their profit margin is directly reliant on Trump-related sensationalism.

He’s embedded. Plain as. There’s nothing his base can say or do that would make him lose a minute of sleep.

Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket ( fortune.com )

Delta has a long-term strategy to boost its profitability by moving away from set fares and toward individualized pricing using AI. The pilot program, which uses AI for 3% of fares, has so far been “amazingly favorable,” the airline said. Privacy advocates fear this will lead to price-gouging, with one consumer advocate ...

I can’t think of a better end for him and his “legacy”.

Reduced from a megalomaniacal fascist wannabe-dictator to an addled old fool, embarrassing himself with every public appearance. Then, He needs to take the deepest deep dive into the madness of dementia that a human being can suffer while still remaining alive.

Then he needs to be resuscitated so it can continue. Until medical science is incapable of pushing further.

Then he needs to be tossed into an unmarked I discriminate dumpster and sent to landfill.

This distraction campaign of his sure is distracting everyone from the fact that millions of people are going to lose their health insurance.

But by all means, let’s all just collectively zoom in on this feud he has with a d-list nobody instead.

It’s what he wants.

Every time I see articles like this, I think:

This was easily avoidable.

Define fries

Screenshot of a fake interview with Jordan Peterson with the following dialog:
McDonald's Cashier: "Would you like fries with that?" Jordan Peterson: "How would you know what I like?
Liking isnt the same as Wanting, or dare I say, Needing* MC: "...so you dont want fries or."
JP: "Define Fries"
MC: "uhhhh they're potatoes that-"
JP: So Vodka is fries? I'll have vodka with my big mac"

When you go to machines for advice, it’s safe to assume they are going to give it exactly the way they have been programmed to.

If you go to machine for life decisions, it’s safe to assume you are not smart enough to know better, and- by merit of this example, probably should not be allowed to use them.

Aaaaand I rest my case.

I appreciate you making my point for me with such simplicity. Sometimes, gifts just wrap themselves I guess.

@WrenFeathers@lemmy.world avatar

So you think know me well enough to think the nonsense you spew could piss me off? Kiddo, you don’t readily know shit. And while your take on politics exemplifies this, your take on me solidifies it.

You don’t piss me off. You disappoint me. You have everything at your fingertips. Everything you could possibly need to know better- and you willfully choose to ignore it and instead, use the very thing that could have educated you- as a tool to spread ignorance.

So no, you don’t piss me off at all. You don’t have that kind of power over me.

I pity you.

Naah. I kinda didn’t. I was simply calling out all the kids that smugly looked down on anyone using anything that wasn’t android.

Now it seems they’re very quiet. Some gifts just wrap themselves, don’t they?

We were told this was going to happen by those that are making it happen. And still 91 million people chose not to vote. Of those 91 million people- was enough make the difference between keeping out democracy, and….

This.

I hope the smug arrogance of your little protest of the trade-agreement support of weapons to a country committing genocide is going to be enough to keep you properly blinded to the suffering of so many others as a result of your stubborn refusal to see the bigger picture-

This is your fucking fault.

When I see you put forth this kind of effort to stifle the idiots and their “bLuEmAgA” bullshit, I’ll consider your little suggestion.

But right now, it seems all you’re doing is trying to silence those critical of something you just so happen to also buy into.

So the phony “let’s all just rally together” quickly unravels when subjected to scrutiny.

All my classmates are using AI and I hate it

So, before you get the wrong impression, I'm 40. Last year I enrolled in a master program in IT to further my career. It is a special online master offered by a university near me and geared towards people who are in fulltime employement. Almost everybody is in their 30s or 40s. You actually need to show your employement ...

This is just the beginning of the dumbing of the world. Given enough reliance on AI and people will be eventually become entirely incapable of thinking for themselves.

There will be no humanity left in humans.

Swallowing it can make you very sick, yet it’s a safe and effective mouthwash if you have gum disease, or any other infection.

Best to just play it safe and rinse with warm salt water.

Yup. That’s basically it. The article creates an unrealistic gradation to compare against its definition of what’s healthy.

Processed meat is completely healthy, eating it every day for prolonged periods of time, not so much.

Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash? Totally safe! As a beverage? Not so much.

Russian use of chemical weapons against Ukraine 'widespread', Dutch defence minister says ( www.reuters.com )

Three facts to consider:

One: Take note of how quickly nothing happens as a result of this. Because very soon, nothing will happen.

Two: Earth is just a playground for the powerful. And the more power they can wring out of it- the more play the ground provides.

…and

Three: Putin is untouchable. He always has been. Unless anyone thinks all of those people flying out of open windows were supposed to subtle. He murders people in plain sight. Trump has recently solidified his status as untouchable.

What do you think happens next?

While I’d love to agree with you, I think we’ve reached a point where what his happening today, cannot be held to the standards of the past.

These people literally own the planet.

Yet he’s allowed to do whatever he wants with impunity.

WrenFeathers ,
@WrenFeathers@lemmy.world avatar

We don’t need to resort to things that won’t happen to prove our points. He violates laws left and right and there has yet to be a single person or nation to attempt to hold him accountable.

He is untouchable.

If they’re not, I’m sure it should be easy for you to provide evidence to support your claim. That’s all I’m asking.

Wow… this is oddly familiar. I recall something almost identical happened a while back. Same person too. I wonder if they’re telling on you also.
