Bloody Jeff.

Sold all our Publicly owned infrastructure to private companies.

Now we have to deal with electricity resellers screwing us over and the government needing to fork out Corporate Welfare in the form of “Energy Relief” to line their mates pockets.

That’s fine. The landlords still have the power to increase rent to astronomical levels in order for force unwanted tenants out.

If you can’t evict them, you can make it so they can’t afford to live there.

“We are price gouging customers, we are ripping off suppliers and we are making our customers feel like criminals. What else can we do it pure evil?”

People want companies to stop trying to exploit them in every little way.

We can be satisfied by respecting us and treating us as customers, even when advertisers are throwing money at them.

This explains why the religious nutbags in the ruling class are attempting to bring The End Times,

Why don’t they believe they need to pay tax? Because they don’t want to and some scam artist told them they didn’t have to, and they are fucking idiots.

You have to wonder where this idiocy comes from; it is people who don’t want to pay taxes so make up some Bullshit and share it online?, is it people who want to scam other people and feed them bullshit so they can make money off the gulliable?, is it people who spread disinformation because they want to see the world burn?

Owning shares when you are an elected official with jurisdiction over the industry you own shares in.

Also, any political figure owning shares in a media organisation, regardless of whether it is traditional media or “new media”.

Please don’t call them AI. They are “Language Learning Models” (or “Spicy Autocorrect” if you want to be cheeky).

Copilot is no more “intelligent” than Clippy from Microsoft Bob in 1995. It just appears to be to people who also have low intelligence.

He really should stop objectifying himself. He will end up as part of his own Me Two Too movement.

There are some local kids fixing the BMX track at the council “maintained” park near us. There are also some other locals who maintain the bench at the top of the park under the trees, with a wonderful view.

The two council-installed benches are out in the open; one has a view of a bunch of houses which face the park and the other has a view of a large tree-trunk.

I can’t believe the amount of people who are arguing over this.

If you are in control of 1.5 tonnes of something travelling at 60km/h you should;

  • concentrate on what you are doing, exclusively!
  • not get into physical argument with someone else in control of 1.5 tonnes of something.

If you are emotionally unable to leave your fucking phone alone, you shouldn’t be fucking driving!

I think that Lemmy does need more of the right exposure.

If you search for any Lemmy content on Google or Duck-Duck-Go, you don’t get any good results. This is probably because most people use Apps or secure browsers that don’t allow tracking.

Maybe Duck-Duck-Go need to have a !bang search modifier for Lemmy. https://duckduckgo.com/bangs
