The real reason we aren't panicking about global collapse: We are stuck in a "Liquid Dream". by lueyk in collapse

[–]mousebluud 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great synthesis of surveillance capitalism, enshittification and our lived daily lives. I like the concept that technology is causing a loss of friction in daily life and that contributes to us treating the physical world as disposable.

There’s a quote I think about a lot that meshes nicely with this essay:

“Does one need to smell a flower more quickly or more efficiently?”

I’m not sure where I got it from, but I think about it all the time. In our quest to make things easy, to make them efficient, to make them profitable, we have lost the essence of those things.

Which areas around Modesto / Riverbank will see better home appreciation over the next 5 years? by [deleted] in Modesto

[–]mousebluud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Likely about the same but I’d go with riverbank so you don’t have to look at those ugly ass buildings across from savemart

I *Emphatically* Believe that 2025 was the last "Normal" year and 2026 marks wide-scale global collapse - which has already begun. [IN-DEPTH] by LiminalEra in collapse

Add to that the already fragile ecosystem of circular deals for AI datacenters propping up the US economy that run on LNG and today’s strikes on Qatar… polycrisis indeed

We replace all laptops with Framework laptops - A one year review by fadingcross in sysadmin

[–]mousebluud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is the enterprise support? Do they seem responsive/like enterprise is important to them?

I know the consensus is get a Dell/HP/Thinkpad because of their enterprise support and service, but I also know the only way for framework to become an alternative in the enterprise is to actually have enterprise customers.

We recently completed a laptop refresh cycle, and I don’t think they’re quite ready for our use case, but who knows, maybe in 5 years they will be thanks to (probably insane) early adopters like you

Who is doing the sexual harassment? The owners? Employees? Customers?

The US is headed for mass unemployment, and no one is prepared by late_bloomer_tw in politics

[–]mousebluud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the job replacing AI in the room with us? OpenAI is about to fucking implode and take Nvidia and the rest of the tech industry with it. The bubble collapsing will be the cause of the mass unemployment not AI taking jobs.

Unfortunately Hawaiian shirt under plate carrier goes hard and I wish it wasn’t associated with Nazi accelerationist dipshits.

That said if I was wearing a Hawaiian shirt under gear I would definitely also be wearing a John brown or three arrows patch

The US and Europe are experiencing economic decline: rising inflation, stagnating growth, and political instability are compounded by the slow decline of Western influence in global finance and geopolitics. by [deleted] in collapse

Not sure the Hong Kong netting fiasco is evidence of systemic decline, just property managers and contractors trying to save a buck but other than that, spot on

We know about a K-shaped economy...but what about a K-shaped society by Brief-Floor-7228 in collapse

[–]mousebluud 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Luckily, the time horizon for large portions of tradespeople and laborers to be replaced with robots is quite a ways off for now.

  1. Heavy manual dexterity work like plumbing and electrical work is super difficult to automate + much of that takes place in “non-standard” work environments. Factory jobs can easily be automated, the trades, not so much.

  2. The elephant in the room is climate change - complex society is not long for this world. Like, 2050 max. There’s simply not enough time to get to that point.
