It's the next stage of corporate capitalism. It's actually been underway for the past 20-30 years. We've seen the rise of the class of corporate overlords, none of whom could actually do the jobs beneath them, and add value of dubious quantity and quality. They take their MBAs and leveraged debt, and hack and chop, leaving a trail of chaos and dysfunctional broken companies behind them.

AI is just the next phase of this, and is going to be an economic destroyer, not value creator. Nobody seems to care that it can't actually really do much useful, let alone replace people in their jobs. This seems completely lost to all of these corporate dweebs though, because again, none of them could actually do any of the jobs beneath them when the chips fall.

What AI could maybe replace though, is the executive lair of most companies. It's not like neither add any fucking value, actually having AI in an executive role would probably lead to value creation, as everyone else could just largely ignore it unless it was useful.

What a world we live in.

And here it starts. The invasion of the reddit power mods.

Just literally ignore these fucking geeks. Don't even pay them any attention.

You first, Smith. Treasonist bitch.

Broderbund is right up there with top tier game makers, their games may be largely relegated to the history books now, but for all the right reasons. You didn't even have to be a big video gamer, to appreciate one for their products (think Carmen Sandiego or Sim City). They definitely had an outsized impact on the industry, and I think we'd all be in a better place today if companies like them were allowed to thrive. Instead we get private equity, beta tier releases and preordering. Not to even mention all these stupid remake$

Rocky Mountain Soap is the cats meow, I love their shampoo. The kids really like their bubble bath too. They've got a rebranding going on, it kind of smells like external funding, but for what I know of right this minute, 100% Canadian.

Bluesky is definitely quite different. I'm a fairly centre kind of person, maybe a bit left leaning in a lot of ways, but bluesky is definitely attracting a lot of extreme left users. I mean it's not like that's a totally bad thing, I'd rather deal with extreme left than extreme right any day of the week, and I still hope the platform is successful. I just don't find myself using it that much because most of the content is a bit over the top. Also it's owned by Mormon backed private equity, so there's that too..big fan of federation social media these days.

I miss fireflies. I live out west now, and we don't seem to get them here. Miss fireflies and warm summer evenings the most.

I'm afraid all the conventional rules are out the window. I mean when the stakes are becoming what they are, you do what needs done. That doesn't involve going to Congress, writing bills that will never get passed or going before a supreme court where the conclusion is decided before the case even gets underway.

Crying on CNN isn't going to stop what's going on, I know that much for sure.

They need to start fighting fire with fire. It's not like the other side is that intelligent in a lot of ways, so trying to fight with logic isn't going to get this done. Start a misinformation campaign like they do or something. Damn glad it ain't my problem, don't get me wrong. But I do see both sides of it, and democratic arrogance is how we are here too, in a lot of ways.

As brain dead as this is, maybe quit running women in must win elections. I ain't saying it's right, or that's fair or just (it shouldn't even be a thing). But it's literally stacking the odds against you in insurmountable fashion. Nothing against Kamala, but if was pretty clear right out of the gates she was going to lose, and they just ignored it.

It's time for Democrats to knock this shit off. Oh but the rules, but the rules.

PSA: People that openly flout laws and systems of order, don't give a shit about the rules bud. No wonder they lost. Load of impotent geeks is what they are.

Wait, are you meaning to tell me my pet goldfish doesn't actually have HPV?

Danielle Smith of course will decline. She'll blame it on the liberals, but what's actually going on, is she's literally so stupid she probably doesn't know how to put the truck in gear to drive to the hospital.
