This is the true power of automation. Without the human element it is much easier to advance a racist agenda and enact racist policies.

there was fucking wild story i saw on science twitter ~~(can't find it again though, maybe it was revealed to me in a dream for now level of trustworthiness)~~, that some presenting woman image was enhanced with subtle horniness via ai upscale, so we get objectification for a price one as well

**Found it

If I have to sit through another whimsical, cheerful, ditsy ukulele advertisement from companies who in the end have ghoulish goals in mind I fucking swear vegeta-stare

life is beautiful. life is precious. here at Bthaghlmart we believe in pouring bleach on top of unsold yet still edible food. we pay our shop staff as low as legally possible and donate millions to the Holden Bloodfeast campaign and to the War Crimes foundation. the sun rises on a new day. the world is full of wonder.

The one I do tolerate is the soprano ad on life is too short. That was funny as hell. Someone described it as comforting to a blind man, terrifying to a deaf man. Yours just reminded me of that lmfao

With that high pitched ping ping ping sound in the background. agony-turbo I'm starting to understand what frieza went through in HFIL. Its still fuck him though. When I send him back there the only chance of release is xeno wiping out this reality.

i think its a toy xylophone that you're thinking of. It all sounds the fucking same and it causes me physical pain.

Glockenspiel, a serious name for a serious instrument.

Bellsgame is a serious matter

Yes thank you I think that is the name. I'm too busy training to beat that idiot kakarot to remember the names

It'd actually be this tbh. Crackkkers love their apple devices and companies charge more if they detect the user is on an iPhone or Mac

With facial recognition couldn't you do fico check and adjust prices accordingly?

[-] GaveUp@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

That would be insanely costly to do

Also credit scores don't correlate to income

Lots of high income people are in hella credit card debt and lots of low income people are very careful of their credit score because they need every little financial advantage they can get

My credit score is like 800 something and I have all of $500 to my name lmao

[-] GaveUp@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

Impressive, I only paid with credit cards, never missed any payments for years and hovered low 700s the entire time until I was late on one payment and I dropped almost 100 points when I checked 3 months later lmao
