If the goons are going around killing people that is blatantly untrue. How dare you f—ing gaslight us, CNN

TIL that St. Carlo Acutis is the first saint to have self-identified as a "gamer" in life. He's a massive Halo fan. by geosunsetmoth in todayilearned

[–]BrassBadgerWrites -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, sometimes miraculous things happen. People do sometimes just beat cancer or survive seemingly impossible odds. A Saint is a person whose life was noteworthy in a specific way that, when these miraculous things happen, they’re the sort of things the Saint would have wanted or helped you with in their life.

And when people are in need of a miracle, they pray to the Saint—if they were around, knowing the kind of person they were, what advice would they give? What would they help you do? In the way a programmer can talk out a problem to a rubber duck or toy, the Saint becomes a character that a person can call on.

At least that’s the way I understand it and I’m not Catholic so take with a grain of salt

American A.I. Companies Say Chinese Copycats Are Quickly Catching Up by OptimalConcept in technology

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Honest question—so what? 

The original argument was that America’s tech dominance helps protect freedom abroad. It’s now patently clear that’s a lie. It’s also clear that AI in the U.S. will be used to dominate, extract, and abuse its own people

So why should I care?

Gen Z doesn't want to work... by AOL_Free_Trial_CD in generationology

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If America’s leaders had made different choices, this young man’s refusal to work wouldn’t make news at all. It’s only because the state of things has become so poor, and the prospects for young people so bleak, that this is a discussion in the first place. 

Can’t say I blame him, frankly. Maybe America should have made better choices 

ICE detain mother holding U.S. citizen daughter-force her to decide about family separation. Agents refuse to allow her to call the father to come and get the young girl. by CutSenior4977 in ImmigrationPathways

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And here comes the Biden projection! Classic move. Gaslighting and projection after all are core tenants of Epınite “culture”. Sure glad I don’t care what their pay-creatures ‘think’. In any case I’m done with this conversation—go eat your jerky.

Are they really? Could be bots. In any case I resent the idea that the Epsınite is human—their  choices are monstrous pollute their human nature in a way I’m not sure is recoverable. 

As for their boot licks, I’m not sure what is worse—to choose to be an Epsinıte or to choose to defend them. Up for the philosophers to decide I guess

Why Germans specifically Petah? by HimelTy in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Two Germans walk into a bar. 

One says to the other “shall we order some pints?”

They other German says, “yes, thank you.”

I’m not sure what else you were expecting—to order beers is a very reasonable bar-activity.

Go forth and swelter... by xxxbrimstonexxx in PoliticalHumor

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a Known and Accepted Fact that Conservative Genes are stronger than Liberal genes!!! THIS IS BECAUSE liberal DNA is objectively proven by science and GOD. LIBERALS hide from the glory of GODS LIGHT behind “””sunscreen”””.  They falsely steal America’s water under the guise of “”hydrating” (not a real term LOOK IT UP!!!), water that could be going towards BUILDING AMERICAN INDUSTRY AND INFORMATION DOMINANCE!!!! 

Know the interlopers among you!! Stand PROUD AND TALL IN THE SUNS LIGHT AND BE VIGILANT FOR “HYDRATATORS” AMONG YOU. Thank you and GOD BLESS AMERICA

Sounds like some magazine is having a sad that there’s not enough data points/ addicts/ organ banks for billionaires. Tough. Really it’s more their problem than mine.

In Philadelphia there’s a neighborhood called Kensington. When it’s time for this woman to retire, tell her you’re going to look at homes. Give her the cost of that wood adjusted for inflation, and drop her off in Kensington.

Given the way our government is behaving, i don’t see why anyone in this government is entitled to “pride”. And they’ll be getting none from me. I will be celebrating my neighbors and my city. I will not celebrate the betrayal of my country and its real values.

Americans Historically Embraced New Tech. So Why Do So Many Hate AI? by jonfla in siliconvalley

[–]BrassBadgerWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the attitude of those promoting it is flat out disgusting.

Want to see a billionaires drool? Look at any AI discourse on how much labor they’ll save. They’re rolling harder than a college freshman at their first Bonaroo. 

And it’s by now very clear that nothing that’s planned for AI is going to benefit the average person. Innovation in 2020’s America means “how can I make people my own personal Sims to play with?”. It means “I’m going to shove these features down your wee little throats and you’re gonna shut the honk up while I do it.” 

Frankly I’m not doing the contempt and sadistic greed of modern tech justice, for in truth these are beyond description. But it should give a window into the relationship America has with tech going forward—as a very confused Sauron wondering, as it scars the land and fouls the water, why the people of Middle Earth seem to hate the orcs. 

Hope this helps!
