Enron? Maybe the SBF thing? Seems like financial scandals are the only thing that matters.

Wow so Brazil has the freest democracy now?

Lol Google scared

If you’re trying to apply reason to the theory, I think you’re misunderstanding the theory.

When you dig to the roots of flat earth, it’s a “don’t trust the secret globalist government feeding you lies” kind of thing (Aka a dog whistle for antisemitism)

I had great success installing fedora on a Microsoft surface. It ran better on Linux than it did with windows lol.

I mean most things can, it just isn’t profitable…

There’s a theory that part of the problem is that social media aggregates too many different people in one place. Our brains naturally create in groups and out groups, making conflict and toxicity inevitable.

I’m making a prediction right now that real self driving will eventually rely on people from impoverished countries remotely operating the cars of wealthier countries. Sort of like how AI training data is combed through.

JUST PUT A FUCKING TRAIN ON IT WTF ARE WE DOING

Even if the dude that “killed himself” did do it to himself, he did so because he was harassed by a company for doing his job. Even in the non conspiracy version of the story, the corporation still acted in bad faith and should be held liable for it’s actions. Why is this the hill you want to die on?

Think about the opportunities out there. What an exciting time to be alive.

I grew up on the internet of the 90’s and 00’s. Lemmy is a far cry from that, but it’s more like the original internet than reddit or facebook. So here I am. I miss the small, interest driven internet holes you and they’re here more than on any other platform.

Do you know any examples of which companies that have done this? I’m not asking to be facetiois, just genuinely curious.

Do you mean a simple audio or visual test that will test for diseases/ailments other than audio/visual issues? I’m not aware of any, and I doubt they exist. I’m not an expert though. I feel like most of the things mentioned in the meme don’t need a test, imo? Like as long as you’re in touch with your body and pay attention to what you intake these maladies should be easy to differentiate between.

They’re based on color blindness tests. They work because the background and the numbers appear to be the same color, making the number indistinguishable from the background if you have that specific kind of color blindness.

This is my opinion, but I think protest is worthless unless the people protesting show that they are willing to give up somethingsomething important to get what they want. I don’t think we’ll make progress until people are willing to give up the status quo for a better future. The mind hates uncertainty, so even shitty future that’s predictable is more desirable than a possible better, but uncertain future.

The middle class came into existence because people that would never be a part of it were willing to give their lives for it. Many did. If we are not willing to sacrifice our safety and secure future for a better life we may never experience, we will make no progress.

woosh

In the classical sense, yes.

Gotta get ready to turn a profit off of World War 3!
