Trump floats idea of three-term presidency at NRA convention (www.theguardian.com)

Donald Trump flirted with the idea of being president for three terms – a clear violation of the US constitution – during a bombastic speech for the National Rifle Association in which he vowed to reverse gun safety measures green-lighted during the Biden administration....

KillingTimeItself,

i mean, statistically there have been at least one president with more than two terms before.

This was also before there was a law that prevented it from happening.

KillingTimeItself,

tru tru.

But that doesn’t mean it isn’t still currently a law.

KillingTimeItself,

ok well this one was actually a shitpost, it was passed by a college kid who got a bad grade on a paper about that amendment specifically.

it just happened to be written up 200 years ago, without a deadline, and then as a result, it passed recently when it received renewed interest. Most amendments and bills, and shit like this have a dead line, to prevent this kind of shit from happening lol.

KillingTimeItself,

it’s texas, their power grid doesn’t work.

KillingTimeItself,

they almost learned nothing. The grid almost shutdown this time, instead of shutting down…

KillingTimeItself,

good thing you’re only possibly linux. If you were fully linux i’d be retiring from life.

KillingTimeItself,

which is probably why i think it doesn’t work.

Because yknow, texas, never gets hot… Or cold…

KillingTimeItself,

i think it would be funny if we starting doing labor theft.

For every hour of unpaid labor, do one less hour of labor.

KillingTimeItself,

ok so technically the definition of art isn’t really a defined thing. The most likely point one could use is “that it isn’t human” and honestly, yeah. But i imagine that’s why “ai art” is the term people use instead.

Art it art, it doesn’t matter what constitutes it, or how good or bad it is. If it’s art, it’s art. It’s technically just that simple.

I also wouldn’t classify it as theft, considering that’s pretty similar to how human learning works. You ever look at a genre of art and notice they’re all pretty similar? There’s a reason. Could it break copyright? Probably, does it? No, probably not, should it? Probably.

it’s funny to me that people are specifically pissing and shitting themselves about AI in particular, and not capitalism, and the fact that society is just ok with pushing it’s working force out of the market if it means making less money. Where were these people when we got rid of our manufacturing sector?

You hate big capitalism fucking up your life? Me to, let’s go commit arson or something (for legal reasons, this is a joke, it’s hyperbolic, the humor is in the fact that committing a crime would do more for society than the following), instead of bitching about bill gates existing or whatever the fuck people do now.

KillingTimeItself,

I’m all for automation

everybody keeps saying this, but i don’t think everybody realizes that any automation, at all, can have a negative effect. Yeah sure automating labor jobs would be nice, what are those people going to do now? Get a college degree? Good luck with that.

We survived the automation and industrialization of farming, we’ll survive this.

KillingTimeItself,

Maybe because it’s much easier to create a plug in for photoshop than it is to build and program a robot that can identify and unclog your drains?

they also say this like these people wouldn’t get incredibly fucked over. You’re an artist, you can almost certainly find someone willing to pay for your services. A plumber who has no job? Probably not.

KillingTimeItself,

this could not be stated better.

KillingTimeItself,

welcome to the internet, we have racism, racism, a bit more racism, sexism, probably some more sexism, threats, lots of threats, and a few more threats. And that one guy trying to be helpful.

KillingTimeItself,

i think it is here to stay, i think it’s focus is what’s going to change. Having AI replace a lot of janitorial tasks can be a huge boon to productivity. It’s also a pretty great librarian for internal documentation. And it also probably makes c suite fuckers happy, because they no longer have to write emails.

KillingTimeItself,

it’s super easy with AI chat bots, they’re literally just fucking wrong. It wouldn’t make a difference whether an AI told you something incorrect, or a person did, you would be equally as likely to fall for it, unless that person was like “take this with a grain of salt, i’m probably wrong” and even then you’d likely forget they say that and peddle the same bullshit a few years down the road.

Humans are stupid.

KillingTimeItself,

So do we stop trying to push the envelope? Do we not try to make the world a better place for fear that it’ll be corrupted? I really just don’t know

I think we probably need to stop having massive corpos that force people to piss in bottles, seems like the correct answer to me.

KillingTimeItself,

yeah idk either, talking about it seems like the best way to figure it out to me though.

And yeah it would probably snowball to a more productive and healthier workforce.

KillingTimeItself,

i’d like to think that they do.

They’re just spooked by the fact that their shit is being hit first, and aren’t responded how they should, but rather, how they feel they should.

KillingTimeItself,

from their perspective it’s being hit first, not everyone has omnipotence unfortunately, so this is expected. You see the same thing everytime you interact with republicans who are ok with people losing their jobs and careers over shit being shutdown, but bitch and cry the second you even mention the potential that it could happen to them.

Same shit probably happens with liberals as well, because everyone is a sore fucking loser, including me.

KillingTimeItself, (edited )

did you expect me to be mad about the fact that you copy and pasted my schizophrenic ramblings?

Also plagiarism is explicitly defined in academia, so i would suggest you tuck your tail between your legs and be quiet.

KillingTimeItself,

damn

KillingTimeItself,

this comment smells of cope bro

KillingTimeItself,

Hey, you’re an expert: do you think the uptick in the number of sticky-fingered midwesterners around here is a sign that Lemmy’s finally reaching a wider, less technical audience?

i think it’s probably recognition bias more than anything.

KillingTimeItself,

god no, but do you really expect anybody to act in anything other than self defense?
