So they‘re finally reaching the „we could fail…“ stage of the hype cycle. This is great news, actually. The sooner this charade ends the lesser destructive it will be. Even when it already caused devastating damage to society.
I would genuinely hope they don‘t have any plans to attack an ally unprovoked with the intend to annex it at any point. If you‘re this far gone then you have no actually allies left. I mean I am sure the Trump administration has plenty of insanely evil plans in the drawer but I do actually expect that to be an exception and not a thought the US government entertains regularly. It‘s sickening to think the US would have serious invasion plans for Canada in case they feel like taking it. And they would have these plans just laying around for decades. „Just in case…“ Again, it‘s not something you should even think about.
Monster Hunter Wilds and Matrix 4, huh? It looks to me like the Game Awards don‘t have the best track record for choosing their last big reveal if that‘s what people expect.
They already planned and built many data centers by then and will use them. It‘s going to be cloud services all the way. Desktops or even capable phones will be a thing of the past as everyone expects you to source out computing power to a subscription service. We will own nothing. It‘s peak capitalism.
EU diplomats will have to get used to it if they buckle here. Within a few months he will threaten with tariffs again because of something else. And so on and so forth. The blackmailing will never end if they prove it works.
Don‘t get me wrong the conclusion is phenomenal but the second season just drags on and on and on. They should‘ve made the second part a much shorter movie. The prologue season on the other hand was absolutely amazing and peak television.
Goes to show that every war movie (or in this case TV show) is a pro-war message just as much as it is an anti-war message. It all depends on who you ask. No matter how much effort you put into getting your message across.
This is why they disguised it as philanthropy early on. They suspected it would look silly if they granted everyone access to unlimited intelligence or whatever. They realized later on that people are much more stupid than initially thought so they dropped the act and became openly profit oriented in no time. It‘s crazy what you can get away with if you‘re bold enough.
Amen. Just look at tens of thousands of illegal fishing vessels manned by mostly slaves that have their signal turned off most of the time. The satellite images don‘t lie.
The only way to protect biodiversity in the oceans and stop them from collapsing during our lifetime is to stop eating fish. That is unless you caught it yourself.
You mean Jack Dorsey? He left in 2024 and deleted his account. He still gave Trump and Musk a platform, though so I have no doubt he would have approved this if he still was with Bluesky today.
You have to find a balance. Set yourself a weekly limit of how much news you consume and take some time for a hobby or family or something to balance it out.
There is no use reading the 3rd article a day about why Palantyr is a techno fascist nightmare that dooms us all. You got it the first time, right?
There is only so much we can take on the regular. Maybe instead of consuming it, we spend some more time fixing things. Which is hard of course but much more rewarding.
Also diversify supply chains, which admittedly is happening already. If everyone throws money at India blindly now we‘ll be in the same situation 20 years from now.
