I mean, it's consistent with how liberal history textbooks are written, just a bunch of bullet points of things that happened in that particular order. Maybe some cushioning about how those people felt and things that they believed at that time, but that's about it.

no matter how unfeasible and illusory it is

For the time being, sure, yeah they will. But how long will this go on for without satisfactory, proven results?

So far, while there has been some labour replaced by AI (for example, with very straight-forward and simple jobs/tasks like reading audio books) it's been piecemeal at best. Some companies that have tried to replace their frontline support workers with AI have had to backtrack and hire back their human workers. Some companies that replaced their developers with AI generated code had to backtrack and hire engineers to figure out why their servers were running like ass - oh, whoops, the AI code was dogshit wrapped in cat shit!

The AI companies keep promising that "it will get better" and "we pinky swear we'll be profitable by 2030" and "this is just the beginning" but these empty promises can't go on forever, especially with the tens (hundreds?) of billions of dollars being lit on fire.

I think it's going to have more to do with the fact that none of these AI companies are making any money. They're lighting mountains of venture capital money on fire with nothing to show for it. I don't think the bubble will pop until rent is due.

Let's also not forget that Canadians kkkanada have by and large stopped travelling to The Burger Reich, I'm sure that hasn't been helping either.

Holy fuck.

CW: reddit-logo and generally horrifying information about the state of affairs. Some choice quotes:

People always say that every generation thinks the younger generation is getting weird, and is crazier. But I believe that what I am witnessing of the gen alphas is just completely different from the type of rebellion of my generation (gen z).

People will keep saying “we’ve always complained about the newest generation,” but society is fundamentally different now and it’s not just this generation. My parents are victims too, slaves to their devices. It seems like only some Gen X and Millennials are at least technologically aware enough to see what’s going on.

The screen and media addiction of generation alpha is actually an emergency that requires government intervention. Its literally like a black mirror episode what this stuff is doing to kids.

They are that incapable of looking at stationary with print on it. If it doesn't have a back-light and it doesn't move, it will not keep their attention.

A new crowd-sourced transit platform allows riders to propose, vote on, and activate new bus lines in as little as three days.

NGL this is pretty cool. Never heard of something like this before.

What a complete waste of my life seeing that piece of shit fucking movie. What the fuck were they thinking.

The film did not have a single redeeming quality. Boring ass, shit ass, bullshit film. My only regret was not sleeping through more of it.

Also WHY DO AMERICANS USE FAKE BRITISH ACCENTS WHENEVER A MOVIE TAKES PLACE IN ANY COUNTRY OTHER THAN USA? WHHYY? FUCKING WHYYY. THE MOVIE TAKES PLACE IN ROMANIA YOU IDIOTS WHY ARE YOU PRETENDING TO BE BRITISH FOR NO GOD DAMNED REASON agony-consuming

Edit: Germany? Fuck whatever, some country which notably does not have a British accent.

I think this article might have been a tad too optimistic about the prospects of Nazism/Fascism in Ukraine and the West being defeated, but I thought it was a good read nevertheless. Doesn't hurt to have the occasional dose of optimism.

I also think he gives Nick Fuentes a little bit too much credit, for he is no more than a snivelling dweeb.

More and more people are saying this.

NGL these are some pretty astounding stats, especially considering how car-brained most of Canada is. Even so, our transit usage (in major cities) completely eclipses the yanks (I have not independently verified these stats but the user seems knowledgeable enough that I did not bother).

Taken from a reddit-logo thread from /r/fuckcars on the topic of obesity rates between different states/provinces (the consensus was that while there are other factors at play such as diet, car-dependency seems to be the overall defining factor for obesity rates).

Ok so I've only ever played this for like one day, and I cannot seem to play for more than two hours without absolutely tanking my economy.

I'm playing as Cuba, and obviously my goal is to liberate the Cuban people from the tyranny of the landowners and Catholic church and eventually establish communism.

I've watched a couple of "complete beginner" videos on the topic, but there's almost twenty "complete beginner" videos in this series and they're all like 40 minutes long lol. This game is insanely complicated.

I've played a lot of Tropico so I am not unfamiliar with "nation building" games, but this is of course way more complex. It only dawned on me recently that the reason that the plantations that I started with weren't making me any money because they're owned by the fucking ruling class and not the state.

So, any pointers? Early on in the game what should I be focusing on? What should I build, research, etc? I've established that I need to first start a construction industry (Cuba starts with none) and build some plantations in order to get some money flowing in, but after that I'm just kind of lost. Plus the Spanish empire seems to immediately gift me Puerto Rico for reasons unknown and it's a completely impoverished backwards starving hell hole, so then I have to deal with that hot mess too.

Thanks in advance Hexbears.
