  • Thank you so much! I wrongly assumed these were California regulations. Honestly, Canada regulations seem even more wild in comparison considering the rules surrounding an 18.5" barrel threshold, restriction based simply on a named make or model, and then if the firearm was factory-built or not. Almost as if a lawyer consultation is needed before making a purchase.

  • Agreed, to an extent. Like what we saw with Coke's AI commercial, companies are eager to do anything that will cut their costs while maintaining profits. If it can seemingly replace a salaried position, they'll do it just to lump that amount of annual grand into the profit pile multiplied by however many people they replace with a pile of code. Who knows how long it will take them to analyze and assess if the marketing/data-entry/creative quality dip is worth the ratio in boosted profit margins.

    Which, dystopically and sadly, polarizes safe human work into either menial physical labor that codeshit cannot perform but is necessary to be done (janitorial, warehouses, logistics, maintenance, construction, bodily care, etc.) or license-authorized professional work gatekept by organized legislation, boards, and the obscenely rich (law, healthcare, academics, government, private research, etc.)

    Unless a legal damper is placed on AI, we're in for a really, really dim future for diverse job field employment.

  • The "he'll get sent off to die in the next war 3-4 years from now and leave me with a child to raise as a single mother and no reliable source of income aside from baseline support by family and neighbors if I'm lucky" look

  • These are the same people who see their wacky German grandpa as a war hero who defended their reich nation from rebellious, unarmed civilians instead of the genocidal war criminal that he actually is.

  • Villains

  • I felt like Bond villains actually paid their henchmen a decent wage, hence why they were always willing to die for the job.

    That's much more than we can say for real life billionaires.
