It goes back to critical thinking, the struggle to learn something is the most important part.

But I plan to use that loophole for my retirement, and at current inflation rates I’ll be a billionaire too by then, although eggs will still be unaffordable.

Don’t worry. The protest won’t matter at all and a large majority won’t even hear about it. Gives layabouts an excuse to layabout some more.

Does the pattern hold all the way? I.e is the root cause actually ease of access to info? Did reliance on the internet and the information age also cause declines in critical thinking? Should kids be raised without computers? I guess I’m asking what it is about ai specifically that causes the deteriortion?

What’s 9 in base pi?

Turns out you can get stuff done without a huge mega corp or government robbing everyone to pay themselves and justify it as being for everyone’s own good. Just listen to the absurdity of the argument that you need a state: “Hey, I’m going to forcibly take 30% of everything you produce, but don’t worry, after I pay myself and my staff, I’ll build you a poorly maintained road and send someone to the moon. You’d like that wouldn’t you?”

For me its not so much quality as it is control. I set things up exactly the way I want with exactly the content I want and I know it’s not going to suddenly change tomorrow. This is why I dont go for streaming unless it’s from a server I control.

How did people figure out what email provider to use?

(Intro) This speech is my recital, I think it’s very vital To get it right, the endpoint’s white— Titrate! Titrate! Here we go!

(Chorus) It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Let’s titrate! Titrate! Titrate! Titrate! It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Titrate! T-t-t-titrate! Titrate!

(Verse 1) I set up in the lab, a burette in my hand A flask of acid, now add the base, it’s goin’ just as planned But if I go too far, then I will lose my star So I drop it slow, watch it flow, ‘til the pink is out that doh’!

(Chorus) It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Lets titrate! Titrate! Titrate! Titrate! It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Titrate! T-t-t-titrate! Titrate!

(Verse 2) In the lab, we gotta grab some phenolphthalein One drop too much, the shade will clutch, and wreck the whole routine! The pH curve is steeper when you’re near that equivalence point So add it slow—just one more drop mo’, and then we’re out this joint!

(Chorus) It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Let’s titrate! Titrate! Titrate! Titrate! It’s tricky to turn it white, to turn it white would be real tight Titrate! T-t-t-titrate! Titrate! Titrate!

(Outro) We don’t quit, y’all, keep that pipette Keep on drop-drop-drippin’ 'Cause this is it!

Yeah the least they could do is seed forever.

I tried organizing a board game night with 4 people. Literally impossible.

Authoritarian is up on the poltical compass, not right, although its often left since it often requires a powerful state.

It’s good!

Doesn’t it have a complete set of sex chromosomes at that point?

Anarchy is the only moral stance.

Whoa, democrat? Ive obviously been on lemmy longer than you, but I get the sense that most american lemmings consider democrats right wing fascists, barely distinguishable from republicans.

Great read, thanks for thoughtful content

Capitalism is defederating power, otherwise youll end up centralizing power and end up under some form of authoritarianism. We have all these elites because of privaleges granted by the state, not capitalism. We need less state if we want more equality.

Vetted members could still bot though or have ther accounts compromised. Not a realistic solution.
