Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Nah it wasn't him. He was with me studying about Jesus.
5·29 days agoI have to wonder whose pockets are being lined that these things keep getting installed. It’s like datacenters. The public hates them,I havent heard a single citizen advocating for them, yet they keep appearing.

92·29 days agoApproach them from behind. The fact that multiple were targeted at the same time tells me that whoever did it scoped them out in advance. They aren’t 360 degree cameras and they aren’t security cameras that capture what’s happening directly below them.

United States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Washington parent pulls kid from school over a video about LGBTQ+ people simply existing
5·29 days agoIt’s not at all what you claim it to be. It has nothing to do with sexual activity. By the way it’s framed, it sounds tantamount to “queer people exist. here are the troubles they’ve faced.”
It also sounds like there was, at best, a supportive take. Telling kids that it’s ok to love who they want to love is not the worst thing in the world. It isn’t indoctrination, it’s education.
I haven’t watched the video mentioned in the article, but it sounds like the kind of education one might receive about a black jazz musician who grew up poor in the South and the difficulties they might have faced. What made them who they are and where they might have drawn inspiration from. It’s cultural and like it or not, there is a large and growing queer culture.

AI@lemmy.ml•Zuckerberg Admits That AI Is Not Working Out the Way He Imagined
1·2 months agoDuh! and/or hello?
So many companies who bought into the hype and went all in on AI are feeling the pain of trying to shoehorn a mostly unproven bleeding edge technology that didn’t actually fit their business goals. It’s like years ago when everyone kept trying to figure out how to use blockchain in their coffee makers.

lincoln memorialWashington Monument like it’s a christmas tree. It’s just a stone to hang lights on to them.
We’re already there, it just looks different than what you describe. Food, shelter, and healthcare all require money in the US. Sure you have some free will, but does it ultimately matter? Are you really gonna go be a homesteader and live off the grid?
You have to work- sell your time, rent your brain and body out to whoever you can find to pay for it. You are unlikely to ever truly own the place you live. Either rent or long term mortgage, someone can come kick you out of your home if you don’t constantly prove your worth. You must pay for your food, even the basics. Without selling a part of your life, you don’t eat. In that case, how much of your life do you really own?
Beyond that, nobody chooses to get sick. Especially not so sick that they can no longer work. But of course, it happens. Are you valuable enough for medical care? Have you sold enough of your life to earn healthcare, even when you can’t work?
Do you, as a human resource, generate enough value that you will continue to be fueled, stored, and maintained?
