Uh, do you realize that with costs like that EVERYTHING will get more expensive? Every single good you buy anywhere has fuel costs baked into their price.
While my comment was mostly snark, the main point is that unlike a dog, these folks have agency in their decisions and approach to situations. Is the underlying management strategy of DHS/ICE wrong? Absolutely, but you don’t get to “I’m just following orders” your way through this as an ICE agent.
iPhones have exactly this. It’s a voice assistant that asks why you’re calling and who you’re trying to reach. You then get a transcript of it and can read it live as it’s being recorded/transcribed.
I may be wrong, but those white markers aren’t actual bollards either. They’re still plastic tubes with reflective tape. I don’t think they’d stop a car from driving through.
Sounds like you had some shitty managers. That’s about as dumb as saying that all people interviewing are lazy people with no work ethics and just want to do nothing and get paid.
Based on this screenshot the candidate dodged a bullet because this particular manager/company sounds terrible.
Europe just loves to shit talk the US at every opportunity, yet consistently underfunds their share of NATO. This is a European conflict yet all European leaders do is talk. Of course their defense spending is woefully small, they just rely on the US military to secure their interests.
Don’t look to the US to lead everything and then also complain about the US leading everything.
Maybe that’s what it will take to fix these ridiculous legacy water rights and the whole “use it or lose it” system we have in place that actively discourages water conservation for these farms. It doesn’t help that these are also the biggest MAGA folks in these states, and thereby climate change deniers.
How about we also slap on a big export tax on any food products being grown in this region that are being sold internationally? Add on a complete ban on foreign ownership of water rights.
My response was that this is becoming a global problem, and all the smug “I’ve been saying it for 30 years” bullshit is just dumb. Perhaps with all that precognition they should have retired by now with their foreknowledge of the global markets.
Chances are that whatever country you are from also has an alt-right problem. Seeing the .ca instance, if you are from Canada, you weren’t far from electing your own lite version of Trump. Thankfully our mistake amplified so much bullshit that the Canadian’s didn’t repeat what we did.
I mean, sure, if it’s being used in ways like that. Using it as a therapist or as a replacement for human contact, yeah, I can see what you mean, but I’m not sure I’d go as far as to call it demonic.
Holy shit, I know Lemmy is rabidly anti-AI, but what hot take is this? Do you have the same thoughts on video games? What about movie and TV?
Is AI hyped to he’ll? Absolutely. Is it going away? Absolutely not.
This whole anti-AI attitude reminds me of all those physical server and data center admins lamenting about how dumb the cloud is and how it’s all hype.
It’s just the way microwaves are programmed. Same reason 99 cooks longer than 100. It interprets a 100, 200, etc as minutes. I think most microwaves handle anything over 100 as minute + seconds, treating it like it had a : in there.
You are the classic example of why Open Source project developers hate some of their communities.
Toxic through and through. Go vibe code your own solution.
