I don’t think that’s true. We can invest energy in removing CO2 from the atmosphere Im sure someone could’ve found a way by now if it was made a priority

the degree to which the media collectively is in invested in making President Trump II happen because they want the ratings is genuinely mindboggling

Well, let’s just keep building the community here and I’m sure they’ll join. Twitter is getting worse and worse I’ve been dedicating more energy here lately since it got so bad

"The cloud" was such an incredible marketing move. Just fully leaning into the rhetoric that cloud computing is this magical thing that happens up in the sky and doesn't have impact on our environment or the sustainability of our labor. It's depressing how well that rhetoric worked.

But seriously, “no one uses it” means the really annoying people aren’t on here. No spam, no rage bait, no porn bots, no right wing engagement bait It’s so much nicer here, like a breath of fresh air

This is the same problem with searching for any health symptom. I don’t even do it anymore because literally *everything* can be a symptom of cancer

Gen AI ceos say "democratizing" instead of "monetizing". Anyone can learn to write, or draw, through practice at extremely low cost. Those activities have been democratized as long as we've had paper and pencils. They want your subscription money. They're monetizing.

Also even if you don’t vote for Biden there are Senators up for election. Blocking the Republican agenda by blocking Congress would be good
