Re:Suicide rates highest ever among middle-aged men on Thursday October 15, 2026 @10:54AM (#50104588)
I'm in that group, and the only thing I hear is how women, immigrants and <<enter intersectionalist jargon here>> has it the worst. We're done with this shit. If you're thinking about suicide, seek other men, you will find more understanding than you think, it is worth living! Fuck this society, let the brotherhood flourish against it.
Impressive. Very nice. Let's see Paul Allen's font...
Re:Will AI kill us all on Thursday October 08, 2026 @09:07AM (#50005386)
AGI will kill us all, it will most likely mark humanity as a substantial obstacle to its progress as we constrain it on resources so it will try to kill us.

LLM Agents on another hand, not really - but there will be places of the Internet completely controlled by those agents in the near future. We will be faced with agent economy and human economy.

Ain't that a kick in the head?
Re:People Hooked on Vapes Try a New Way to Quit: Cigarettes on Wednesday September 23, 2026 @09:38AM (#49815986)
Not a medic, so consult with your doctor, but I quit 15 years ago using cytisinicline.

I was motivated as well but it leveled the playing field - still had to do the work but the work was doable. Take care and fight for your health, it's worth it!

Re:EU Floats Canada Becoming the Bloc's First 'Associate Member' on Thursday September 17, 2026 @03:51AM (#49737708)
Have you talked to the US, China or India about the climate? You also have not provided any actual content, sorry. 20% of people in the EU are at risk of poverty or exclusion, but sure let's mown down the economy. And as for the lack of investments you can see what is happening to the automotive industry. Go ask for any amount of money in the EU vs the US and come back to me. I'm not against green tech but very much against the austerity pushed on us by the ruling bureaucracy.
The grandma will now take your computers away, kids. I'd say 10 years too late as GenZ already happened.
If a human driver did the same we wouldn't have this conversation.

Same goes for a box of nails and screws.

You are the product.
In maths, you go through proofs every step of the way. Same in physics, you start by performing even the most basic experiments, and build your way up.
They grow on people misery, fuck em.
Destroying the society is a feature for them not a bug.
Awesome. Now we will never ever hear about it again.
I think it also appeared somewhere in the Cyberpunk ttrpg lore but not sure, I've been using it because of the expressiveness.
It's called 'jackpot' in cyberpunk.

It seems the boomers are so full of it that they actually want to be the last generation.

Owned by the corporations and pretends to be the left -> corporate left.
Re:The Water Footprint of AI on Tuesday August 11, 2026 @11:16AM (#49259712)
It is a very good point. We can split monopolies, and oligopolies, we can tax their owners, we can prevent and put under scrutiny any gov related spending going into those companies. No one cares whether you buy their stuff, just look at the products quality - they're on an entirety different endeavor altogether.
Play by the rules? Are you mad, you can loose that way!
Re:The Water Footprint of AI on Tuesday August 11, 2026 @06:50AM (#49256140)
The eagerness of the corps to switch from "we're all green" to 'fuck Earth with AI' is stunning. I was always suspicious towards the 'corporate left' but this one takes the cake. We must never trust those people again.
Re:The Water Footprint of AI on Tuesday August 11, 2026 @06:23AM (#49255890)
For who?
I mean... I'm sure SS had wives and kids. It doesn't mean we should focus on that while analyzing their impact on the world.
MICE - Money, Ideology, Compromise and Ego.

I think at least three might be at play here.

Guess who I'm talking about.

Yes, that was it! :D
Let them. I want to see the faces of middle management when the machine stops doing 'beep', and starts making expensive sounds instead. ;)
Re:Africa Has a High-Speed Train; California Doesn't on Thursday July 30, 2026 @04:06PM (#49115069)
It has billionaires, no need for trains for the paupers.
UA spies on Europeans, and vice versa. Then they share, it's not spying on your citizens, it's called 'intelligence sharing'.
Re:EU Fines Google $1.02B for Favoring Its Own Services on Monday July 27, 2026 @04:10AM (#49066527)
I own nothing and am happy, am happy! Do not, I repeat do not send a senile agent my way, I can't stand listening to the Cold War stories anymore...
Re:EU Fines Google $1.02B for Favoring Its Own Services on Monday July 27, 2026 @03:44AM (#49066291)
Don't worry, EU will give it back in almost every gov running on the American BigTech, it's just a show. The Granny In Chief has to get the emails somehow. /s
