Hopefully I can replace myself with an AI and then she can deal with this shit.
Well before they were an apartheid ethnostate, sort of like America used to be. Democratic, kinda, but only for some.
I guess this is worse?
The COVID pandemic makes me their plan is to turn New Zealand into a bunker nation and leave us all to die.
Do they have a choice? By hosting an instance, they open themselves up to liability if someone posts child porn. What else could they do?
Yahoo answers held on for decades after it was relevant, I'm sure Reddit will be around in 15 years.
Sadly, Remindbot will be reminding a ghost town populated only by other bots
lol but inflation is being caused by poor people demanding higher wages, right?
There's a theory that, at one time, "man" was a gender neutral term for persons and we called males "weremen" and obviously women "women"

Art hadn't been properly commodified yet because the technology for mass produced art didn't exist. They still needed artisans and artists, so they had to fund the arts if they wanted to see any created. They didn't appreciate art more, per se, but they saw it as fundamentally different from other widgets.
This is no longer the case. With the advent of photography, film, digital information, and of course the internet we now see profitable "art" without any need to fund it with philanthropy. Aside from one-off public works projects they can fund by stealing public funds, they can only imagine art through the lens of profitability and have no understanding of the amount of free time and energy that has gone into creating so much of the art that exists today.

This is literally idealism.
You have an idea about a market solution to the problem, and then act like you've solved the problem.
The problem isn't a lack of ideas! The problem is a lack of implementation! You have to get these ideas into the real world somehow, and revolution is the only way you can do that. There are billionaires aligned against implementing these ideas. You have to stop them.
