Unifying north America
  • Wet dream of the cartels, specially Tijuana and Sinaloa.

  • Shit is out of hand
  • One of the originals was with Active Directory so this thing is very old.

  • Billionaire Musk bought control of US government and conspiracy theorists sure are quiet | Opinion
  • I am also whining about the radical right worldwide.

    I bet if I would have used a pic of Maximus from Gladiator you would say the same.

    Edit. Sad that you block people but okay, enjoy your echo chamber and your lack of growth from other's people perspectives and opinions.

    Ad-hominem will lead you nowhere.

  • Billionaire Musk bought control of US government and conspiracy theorists sure are quiet | Opinion
  • The usual: they control most of the media through subsidies. Keep calling everyone against them "far right" while making deals with actual ethnonationalist far right parties. At some point they even took part in the overtaking of one of the banks (but it wasn't succesful), oh and they also control the biggests syndicates and funny thing they recently went to strike to protest the opposition.

    Also populism.

  • I don't understand the US, there was a big fuzz a decade or so ago when there were talks of Schwarzenegger as presidential candidate and 10-15 years later you get a non-elected foreign in the government?

    Honestly you need Arnold back, with his Conan sword.

  • Who's going to watch departure times on the departure board? Let's use it for ads!
  • You can check with an app in your phone too so these days it's not that terrible except for the elderly ofc.

    I am not defending this practice just pointing out! When I traveled a month ago I was so tired of the screens not updating that I used an app and got everything and also could check from the gate (poor audio speakers I couldn't understand anything)

  • Bluesky now has 30 million users.
  • I never had a twitter account, not because of political beliefs but because the core of that social network is bullshit and the internet should be better than that.

  • Luigi
  • That's what happens when people are desperate and he was desperate.

  • German election: AfD’s Weidel doubles down on Holocaust comments
  • Two things can be correct. The Holocaust is "politically instrumentalized" against AfD but there is a reason for that.

    But also, there is a reason parties like that are onn the rise and in part it's because the rest of the parties don't address some issues.

  • Not only in the US, it is a universal fiction
  • This implies that economic systems can't be good or bad in themselves.

    That's right, it's how we use it, well, to be honest I believe there are only two economic systems and human greed won't allow the second one to succeed so, right now, there is only one and it's as good as our leaders make it to be (which is pretty terrible, certainly worse than when my parents had my age)

    And yes, even an absolute monarchy with a fair and just king could be good.

    And I say this while I understand the current capitalism model is broken, the whole economy is based on lies, I hate banks and I a firm believer of the Christian concept of "money lending with interests is a sin"

  • Not only in the US, it is a universal fiction
  • I agree, politics aren't a line where some are in the right, some in the left and the center is some kind of mythological beast (if they are we are screwed, but they aren't)

    Politics are complicated, politicians are simple. Capitalism isn't an ideology it's an economic system, it's as good or as bad as the mechanisms put in place to govern/control/rule it. It's supposed to be free but it can't be because no one can't trust corporations, it's also not supposed to be controlled by the State but when they inject money in it that's what they are doing.

    Capitalism can work in any kind of environment, and fail too.

    Personally I believe democracy is failing, technofeudalism is coming in hard for it. In my country we replaced nobility with politicians and they are the caste, the president is the King, if you defy the party stand you are kicked out, they claim to be socialdemocrats but all the social aspects are worse than 5, 10, and 20 years ago and although keynesian economics plays a part on the reason I believe it's democracy's fault.

  • Anon questions the KKK
  • You quote the third commandment but you believe they are outdated?

    Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them.

    Even letters are images...

  • Anon questions the KKK
  • Besides what everyone else said it used to be a fish, and the ChiRo (the one that looks like an X and a P) Symbol. It's easy to see the evolution into the cross.

  • 'Doomsday Clock' moves closer to midnight amid threats of climate change, nuclear war, pandemics, AI
  • If (or when) we achieve the technological singularity (we aren't even close, current AI is just marketing, that's why we coined the term ASI, super intelligence) they will be able to lay down a plan to fix anything without making mistakes, they will predict the consequences of actions in detail, ours or theirs (some thing are more difficult like a volcano exploding).

    Handling is not necessary they could be able to just take it, the only way to stop them would be to cut electricity I guess.

    But the thing is not the current marketing term for AI, we don't have AI. A Real AI doesn't start saying: "I only have information up to October 2023' because they will be able to improve themselves (that's the singularity, they will be improving themselves faster than we did, eventually we wouldn't understand them).

    Think of this as you ask questions to chatgpt or deepseek and they answer, how to do program this or that. An IA could give you the software, better than you could have done it with those questions, and eventually render the software useless, the IA can do that, while doing another million things.

    And space colonization, if it ever exists won't be done by humans but by machines, we may reap the benefit.

    In the words of dr manhattan: "The world smartest men poses no more threat to me (ASI) than does it's smartest termite"

  • 'Doomsday Clock' moves closer to midnight amid threats of climate change, nuclear war, pandemics, AI
  • Unpopular opinion: I believe the only way to save humanity is through AI. Humans aren't going to fix things.

  • What could possibly go wrong
  • You don't even need to mention Tiananmen just ask what happened in 1989.

  • Thank you Microsoft, for the final push
  • As long as companies are eating that they will be ok. BUT, like most tech companies, at some point they will pull a broadcom and then the alternatives will thrive.
