Ah yes, reasonably functioning… by lying your ass off so as to please those around you. Totally healthy and reasonable.

Yeah, but as soon as Bruce found a suitable replacement he got Nightwing’d.

In the current iteration, yes. Originally it was about how nuclear weapons fucked up Japan real good.

Introspection?

That’s about how long it’s been since I’ve gotten a new card, so I’m going to say yes.

Good grief

So… you had one experience and now you associate that with all people you think are the same?

I dunno, seems a bit extreme.

Just the combined efforts of thousands of people. Mostly in their spare time.

Whether they are effective or not is definitely in question, but they are unquestionably intended to be informative. If they irritate you, you have the ability to exercise your right to block them.

You being annoyed at something you don’t like isn’t a reason to not have it.

When it comes to tools that help you stay informed, I’d say the opposite is true.

If one wants to maintain ignorance, they should have to do so at their own inconvenience.

I only enjoyed because it was fake. Otherwise it’d just be petty office bullshit, which is no fun for anyone.

Well, certainly can’t have pizza.

We’ve got two bits of cake…

In that there is a finite amount of money, there is also a finite amount of development that can go on at once. If they just pile tons and tons of bodies on what you might call useful endeavors, it can lead to bloat and the right hand not knowing what the left is doing.

You know there’s two sides to hype, right? Both the positive and the negative. Constantly doomposting about how any mention of AI, or LLM, or ML, or whatever your preference is, is a sign of being a waste of everyone’s time isn’t any better.

Maybe instead of jumping from one extreme to another we can go ahead and have some kind of middle ground where we don’t jump down the throat of everything we only have the barest concept of because it looks kind of like something we aren’t fond of.

In reality it means they’ll have to focus more on monetization, which will create more enshittification and not less.

I would read up on how the fediverse works if you don’t understand why there are so many “third-party” apps.

I push the power button on the tower.

Teehee
