Can we please avoid “autistic” as an insult.
Edit: I get that this was hyperbole/satire but it still can hurt people’s feelings.


I’m not assuming you’re unread. You are demonstrating that pretty clearly.


I don’t need to ignore any facts about communism or socialism because I didn’t bring them up and they are immaterial to this conversation. I don’t know why you even brought that up here.
Its a very complex topic, but honestly also self evident if you look around. The successful EU/Scandinavian countries who are “capitalist” are also falling into fascism as we speak. The only reason they held it off so long was laws that inhibit capitalism from doing as much damage as it wants to.
The system of capitalism encourages (almost demands) antisocial, sociopathic behaviour to emerge. The ultimate result of this is always the same.
This is too big of a topic to start an explanation from scratch in this thread. But it’s also something that is very well discussed online and written about a lot. This isn’t my idea personally.


The argument is that capitalism directly and basically infallibly leads to fascism. It’s not supposed to, but it’s a consistent emergent behaviour of the system.


You are coming at this with econ 101 level understandings.
The people you’re arguing against here know the text book definition of capitalism.
The issue is you are talking about some kind of “Adam Smith capitalism” but everyone else is using the term to mean what it actually is in practice.
If you want to understand this point of view, the quickest way is to read Marx.


You are getting down voted because you should read Marx before commenting about capitalism on Lemmy haha.


I know nothing about this guy aside from this headline but that checks out.


Fwiw I use a phone imported from the UK (Nothing Phone 1) in NA without problems so who knows why they won’t do this.


OP, read up on the fall of Rome and how it all went down. It’s pretty likely we will see the fall of America in our lifetime.


Likely less than 1% of boomers were hippies. They call it “counter culture” for a reason.
What most people would consider “hippies” consisted of a pretty small group of people mostly living in California.
A larger and much less genuine movement came later when John Lennon decided to appropriate hippy fashion. But that’s all it was (fashion).
People who truly held core values like “peace, free love and compassion” were absolutely not the majority but they were loud and colorful and now we remember that period of time as being overrun with hippies.


Us here in NA finally get to see what its like on the other side of the region locking coin haha.


Windows is just a gotcha game now lmao

What the fuck? This is so unhinged. Genuine question, is he actually this dumb or he’s just saying complete bullshit to boost stock prices?
This is a thing. It just doesn’t work very reliably for the reasons you mentioned.
It does work kind of ok on some comics like the one OP shared and generally pretty well on manga since that tends to be more consistent with the boxes.
I don’t know of anything open source or self hosted that does this though.


Literally all trump merch is made in SEA and he claims it’s made in America and no one cares.

Yesterday I asked an LLM “how much energy is stored in a grand piano?” It responded with saying there is no energy stored in a grad piano because it doesn’t have a battery.
Any reasoning human would have understood that question to be referring to the tension in the strings.
Another example is asking “does lime cause kidney stones?”. It didn’t assume I mean lime the mineral and went with lime the citrus fruit instead.
Once again a reasoning human would assume the question is about the mineral.
Ask these questions again in a slightly different way and you might get a correct answer, but it won’t be because the LLM was thinking.
He wants AI to become strictly regulated so no one can catch up to his stagnating bullshit engine.
