Hey, it's me, the Universe. I just wanted to say, this is no longer working for me. And if it makes you feel better, sure it's not you, it's me. Please don't call.

To me it seems, a rich minority is gaming the system (political theatre, Fox news, CNN... --> public opinion), hoping to secure wealth and power against "the will of the people", up to a point where the system will eventually break and be replaced by dictatorship.

Ironically it is much more dangerous to be a billionaire in Russia or China than in the US or Europe.

Maybe that should be our message: it seems easier to exploit us without checks and balances, but having none can be very dangerous for you and your family.

However, the leader who will eventually emerge, the one using AI to check this comment, will be best for all of us, I'm sure!

That's some true 4D chess, with time paradoxes and all!

If you had nothing to hide, you wouldn't mind Trojans! /s

I don't understand. I think bad things (e.g. cancer) can happen to everyone (e.g. small childrens/babies, selfless people...). Is your argument that no one is really good?

Damn, you're right. It's basically a whole plate full of cookie dough. However, most likely without eggs.

In an attempt to cheer you up: most of us are useless bums, some are just getting paid more, due to lucky circumstances. You are not worth less than the rest of us goofballs.
Also, you have access to the biggest library in human history (internet) and things could be way worse. If this was 1824, I probably would be very happy, if I could live the life I'm living now. :)

Don't stop him now! He's having such a good time!

More like super boring until you get stabbed.

I know that movie! But I think that happened in an Italian restaurant.

Game's changed. Now we fire people, try to rehire them for less money and if that doesn't work we demand policy changes and less labour protection to counter the "labour shortage".

Can you install Firefox?

In Firefox you should be able to install the add-on "uBlock origin". No additional tweaking of settings required.

With Firefox you can browse the web including pages like YouTube.

Yes, on so many levels, yes, it is.

More like +10.5°C in room A and -8°C in room B.

A mouse is all you need. One key to accelerate, one to break, the mouse wheel for shifting - move the mouse to steer.

True gamers play iRacing with a mouse only! :)

As a Samsung user I would expect a moon up on that night sky.

For this to work, you’ll need a North American version of the game. Once you have it, drop it in the main menu and start playing.

Clever. I hope this protects the makers.

Why?

It's crazy how political courts have become. Or didn't I notice it in the past?

The art of trolling

Since the recent call for fusion energy from an AI company, I wonder if eventually there will be competition for energy. Will there be a point where it is more "cost efficient" (for some) to farm solar energy instead of food, because AI will be more productive per m² than most people? It could appear easier to control, too.

Maybe you could argue that this is already the case, except that most people don't feel it yet, because AI isn't very efficient yet and most resources so far, are only spent in expectation of future results.

That's why I like the picture. Technically just a random rock, just like earth. :)

Fuzzy feeling? More like fuzzy logic! Am I right guys? Guys? Gotta go...

That's what she said.

Yo dawk! I heard you like stupid...

"Can" as in "It can happen... sometimes."

Nonono, you are not allowed to ask stupid questions, but since there are no stupid questions, you can ask away.

I used Ubuntu happily for many years and found nothing that suited me better.

However, with them pushing more and more updates in my face that I can only install if I register an account, I will try to switch to Endeavour on my main system soon.

I wouldn't call it a wrestling show, but an attempt to prevent two smoking drunks from a bar fight by enabling them to save face. Also the bar is covered in burnable liquor and we are all standing in it while the doors are shut.

I want a new Titanic movie, but instead of the Orchestra playing till the end, there should be a bunch of Lemmy jokesters making witty comments in the face of unavoidable doom.

Guys! Guys! I just figured it out! The last couple years, we've been living in a Monthy Python sketch! Now it all makes sense!

Are you sure the roon of today is a reference to yesterday's roon?

The sound... I mean the text is just a bit warmer on analog sites.

They got what they deserved for hating on Denuvo - pirate scum! /s

TIL: there are killer bots. Crazy.

Never heard of it, but I'll check it out. Thanks!

I played it. Gun play's fun. Ran into adifficulty wall. Read in a wiki that I was missing a certain ability. Got that ability. Continued easily until I came to a point where I had to git good. Game felt grindy. Turned on cheats. Flew through the rest of the game and kept thinking: this would have sucked hard without cheats and the story would not have been worth it, for me.
This was however the first shooter I played with a controller instead of mouse and keyboard.

Tldr: had some fun, used cheats, deprived myself of half of the game, no regrets.

All in the game.

Take the stone first. Then have the courage to grab the rest. :)

You gonna have to find ways to do more with less.
