Theyβre fighting to be like Germany - not the other way around pal.
the good old "how dare you desire for your life to be better when there's people who's lives are worse!"
The go-to "you aren't allowed to complain" that I heard was "well there are children starving in Africa"
"indeed there are, mother. that's why i won't eat this food and will instead put it in an insulated box and ship it to them, so they can enjoy it."
There was a liberating moment when I learned that just feeling awful was not an effective way to stop wars.
We don't compare trauma. This isn't a competition.
If I hear that, I show the stupidity by doing the opposite:
How can you be happy? There are people getting married today, they are much happier!
.
Yeah yeah, not all who marry are happy, you get the point
Fucking psychopath.
So I looked, and of course Kickbite is just a scumbag marketing company. With 'AI'. He produces nothing of worth for all that slave driving.
And to underline what he said, he posted an ai generated picture. The tech bro post is complete
Exactly
Is it really though? It feels off to me too but we have no proof
Laptop doesn't have a trackpad, also her foot is fucked up
Swoopy wine glass is the hip new trend.
Just the arrangement of the people and furniture screams AI. You don't even need to zoom in.
Look at the guy's hand that's holding the glass.
Hmm true.
Btw: does anyone know if they've invented a way of guaranteeing (not) AI yet? It's getting harder and I can see this becoming a pressing issue, especially in journalism.
No, and there never will be a way. Once you create a system to detect AI generation, models are trained against it until they pass most of the time. You can create something that works temporarily but it's only a matter of time until it stops.
Probably wise to just exercise a healthy amount of doubt and assume everything is AI generated until proven otherwise.
This is satire right? I can't tell anymore
I kind of want to make a fake LinkedIn account just to tell these people off, but that's probably playing into their hands.
This post is 100% serious, I checked comments and their other posts
Go the other way with it. Shame them for not going far enough, accuse them of being soft and not grinding hard enough. Go slightly ridiculous with it.
Won't be long for people to take that seriously and install raid sirens on corporate offices around USA or western Europe, to "ensure everyone understands the hardship of our colleagues"
But can we mute them in the C-suite pls&thx
I thought the same thing about 'X' a while back, so I revived an ancient unused account. It took me about 5 minutes of scrolling to decide it would be pissing in the ocean and I just permanently deleted the account instead.
You need to see the comments as many agree with him even some from Ukraine.
Throwing his daughter under the bus like that
My daughter thinks I should spend more time with her but doesn't she realise people are being bombed in Ukraine and still show up for work?
Probably one of those dads that thinks buying their kids things is the same as loving them.
I mean... As someone who had neither, I would've fucking LOVED a free car or even a semester of college paid for. ... and my dad was a doctor.
Won't someone think of the shareholders?
I didn't check the community before entering but immediately figured it must be LinkedIn lunatics. Holy shit the disconnect from reality is incredible, I'd like to see how well Juan can write business tips or whatever this is while living in a trench for a month with the constant possibility of death.
I know this will sound selfish (to make it about Denmark, apologies), but that's pretty much what the Danish Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen used as an excuse to remove one of Denmarks holidays: "The assembly lines runs 24/7 in Russia".
It feels like we're involved in perpetual war just to ensure that the improved productivity isn't paid back to workers in the form of more leisure time or pay. No, that surplus has to go to the war effort! There is a hint of 1984 to it: "We've always been at war with Eastasia.".
That's not to say I don't support Ukraine. But I am also mindful of the fact that the war is being used as a stick as well.
So this only applies for military related jobs, right?
... right?
The removal of the holiday? No that was for all of Denmark.
War as an industry innovated, did some hostile takeovers. Now even your prospects of acquiring shelter for the night are considered part of war effort.
Damnit Clauswitz.
Iβll jump on the Danish wagon and tell about our extra high power prices some days ago because Germany. France and Spain was using airconditioning so much in the evening, while the solar power production was going down with the setting sun. Donβt they know that I need to pay extra for their cool enjoyment?
Seriously using AI generates images for this crap? On brand I guess, enjoy the grind.
Man if we could somehow find a way to make these people feel shame...
Impossible.
The last group of the elite could be bracing against the steel door in their Hawaii superbunker while survivors of the climate apocalypse are breaching it open, and they still wouldnβt realize their wrongdoings.
They would scream, beg, berate, and lie to try to control and trick us, but weβd never get an honest emotion out of them.
He's in marketing. There's no money in shame.
lowering the bar of acceptable enslavement is what every capitalist boss wants to do
and they want to do it from their yacht
