Not just tariffs, but also terrorizing and deporting the workers that the industry exploits. Even for items not actually impacted there’s also the corporate greed seeing a convenient excuse for higher profits. Just an absolute disaster all around.

With enough duct tape and chewed up bubble gum, surely this will lead to artificial general intelligence and the singularity! Any day now.

I think it also highlights the absurdity that the stock market has become and how it directly contributes to a culture that allows for human suffering as long as record profits are believed to be around the corner.

I don’t even understand what record profits they’re expecting at this point. Their sales numbers are dropping, they’re facing stiffer competition, the carbon credits and ev tax credits which benefited tesla so much are going away, and more of their newer offerings like the cybertruck and the taxi service have been absolute disasters. Somehow the company still enjoys about a $1 trillion market cap.

Not regularly, but I don’t need to slice them thinly anyway.

Maybe I’m not using my knives enough and/or I don’t care about dullness, but my cheapo knives are lasting a long time too. Haven’t had to throw one out yet.

Yeah, it’s less “stability in world events” and more so the west riding high off winning the cold war.

Also “3D Movies” is a whole joke on its own.

Our economy would collapse without this “needless spending”.

It’s possible to complain about both because the improved hammer makes the guy smashing everything with it an even bigger problem. Either way it brings attention to the issue, but I have no confidence in politicians making a change for the better at this point, they’ll probably just make it even worse.

These assholes are a drain on society.

AI has been around in many forms for decades FYI

Enhanced capabilities and availability of tools make a difference. If a company gets the “brilliant” idea to “use AI” to file DMCA requests, encouraged by recent hype of AI and proliferation of many AI tools to make it easy to deploy, then it suddenly becomes a problem, hence why this article exists right now.

AI makes it easier, thus amplifying the suckitude.

Generative AI degenerating skills.

That’s when my electric car is plugged in and taking up quite a bit of power.

It’s a race in Final Fantasy XIV.

This plus all the different Italian names for coffee which, as far as I can tell, are mostly just describing the amount of dairy added.

Quickly making garbage doesn’t make the garbage good.

If a cryptocurrency concentrates into the hands of a few, as assets tend to do in capitalism, then wouldn’t proof of stake mean those few control the cryptocurrency anyway?

Couldn’t those transactions be cut off at those swapping points to fiat? I assume if a bank doesn’t support a business directly transferring funds for a particular purpose then they’d take issue with indirectly transferring funds for the same purpose and would work to close those accounts.

Why do they have a diner? Is this supposed to be added to the list explaining why tesla’s stock should be worth as much as it is because “it’s not just a car company”?
