The goal never was to help the American people. It was just easy to make the average man live comfortably when your country is one of the only ones not set to rubble mode after WW2. Now that our means to an end have reached the end we are all starting to get uncomfortable enough to tell the Emperor he is naked.
I am writing to express my interest in the Software Engineer position at Nintendo. With my strong technical background and expertise in error handling, I believe I would be a valuable addition to your team 😜
Nah I just straight didnt get this and read the comments late and night and was like “dude no one us helping this guy out” i’ll take those downvotes I earned them lol
Imagine going through each “land” in Disneyland all twisted and erroded. This would be sweet. You could flavor it far in the kingdom hearts future for some juicy lore. Mmmmmm.
I'm making a new #homebrew#dnd setting. The mistake I felt I made last time was trying to devise an orgin from whole cloth for each playable race, which wasted a TON of time and energy while also confusing my players. So, herein I wish to ask: What playable races would you miss, if you joined my table and noticed their absence?
Humans, dwarves, halflings, orcs, goblinoids, and elves will all stay, but I am not sure about all the others.
I only build what is currently necessary. It is not necessary to know the origin of the race I am playing to have fun with it. A lot of the time, less is more.
Hi, we're a tech startup run by libertarian Silicon Valley tech bros.
We're not a newspaper, we're a content portal.
We're not a taxi service, we're a ride sharing app.
We're not a pay TV service, we're a streaming platform.
We're not a department store, we're an e-commerce marketplace.
We're not a financial services firm, we're crypto.
We're not a space agency, we're a group of visionaries who are totally going to Mars next year.
We're not a copywriting and graphic design agency, we're a large language model generative AI platform.
Oh sure, we compete against those established businesses. We basically provide the same goods and services.
But we're totally not those things. At least from a legal and PR standpoint.
And that means all the laws and regulations that have built up over the decades around those industries don't apply to us.
Things like consumer protections, privacy protections, minimum wage laws, local content requirements, safety regulations, environmental protections... They totally don't apply to us.
Even copyright laws — as long as we're talking about everyone else's intellectual property.
We're going to move fast and break things — and then externalise the costs of the things we break.
We've also raised several billion in VC funding, and we'll sell our products below cost — even give them away for free for a time — until we run our competition out of the market.
Once we have a near monopoly, we'll enshitify the hell out of our service and jack up prices.
You won't believe what you agreed to in our terms of service agreement.
We may also be secretly hoarding your personal information. We know who you are, we know where you work, we know where you live. But you can trust us.
By the time the regulators and the general public catch on to what we're doing, we will have well and truly moved on to our next grift.
By the way, don't forget to check out our latest innovation. It's the Uber of toothpaste!
