Oh yeah, that's cool. I don't know how comfortable I'd be eating out for the spoon end with the can opener blade so close to my face though, lol.

Yeah, I solved that by wrapping the pointy end in electrical tape. Works out pretty well.
Even though I don't regularly use it, I'm glad I have a p38 can opener on my keychain. Just in case I end up in a survival situation, it's good to have alongside a good keychain bottle opener. Obviously not as good as a leatherman, but for under $20, yeah, these two are worth it.
I like Tubular and/or Seal(a yt-dlp wrapper) on Android and don't use a TV, but yeah, anything but the actual YouTube app is probably better.
Ublock Origin on Firefox With Sponsorblock is the answer.
Edit: Mispelling, fuck autocorrection
Maybe. Who knows how people will interpret this on an individual basis. Cowards will take it as a sign not to fuck with Trump. Pragmatists might do as you say, and avoid having anything to do with him. Narcissists will think they can do better than Musk and avoid his missteps. And Bullies will smile and say this is why they love and identify with Trump even more.
Its a nice thick Toxic Soup that the American people are being force fed.
Perhaps the not actually AGI we create will be able to tell us how to solve the Climate Crisis we exacerbated by attempting to create AGI.
I am not calling for the deaths of all Tech Billionaires, but I wonder what I am calling for then.
The OP's what if scenario is already well outside the realm of potential reality, might as well go hard into the imagination space.
Definitively? Like everyone agrees I won the argument and it causes anyone who witnessed it to rethink their stance on the topic and actually fucking change the way they think and behave? An occurrence so rare I'd might as well play the lottery?
If that were true... I guess I'd argue Donald Trump about addressing and curbing Climate Change...and second choice would be arguing Elon Musk on the merits of developing actual empathy.
Genie wishes...pipe dreams in a lamp, lol. Anyways, thanks for inducing a small indulgence in some fantasy.
FFS people! YES, YOU VOTED EXACTLY FOR THIS!!
Admit that this is what you voted for and just say you regret it, you were wrong, and then do whatever you can to salvage what little is left of your community.
Jesus Fucking Christ, I just can't with these fucking people, it's as if their intestines have started to excrete feces into their skulls.
There's too many solid reasons to be upset with, well, not AI per say, but the companies that implement, market, and control the AI ecosystem and conversation to go into in a single post. Sufficient to say I think AI is an existential threat to humanity mainly because of who's controlling it and who's not.
We have no regulation on AI, we have no respect for artists, writers, musicians, actors, and workers in general coming from these AI peddling companies, we only see more and more surveillance and control over multiple aspects of our lives being consolidated around these AI companies and even worse, we get nothing more in exchange except for the promise of increased productivity and quality, and that increase in productivity and quality is a lie. AI currently gives you the wrong answer or some half truth or some abomination of someone else's artwork really really fast...that is all it does, at least for the public sector currently.
For the private sector at best it alienates people as chatbots, and at worst is being utilized to infer data for surveillance of people. The tools of technology at large are being used to suppress and obfuscate speech by whoever uses it, and AI is one tool amongst many at the disposal of these tech giants.
AI is exacerbating a knowledge crisis that was already in full swing as both educators and students become less curious about subjects that don't inherently relate to making profits or consolidating power. And because knowledge is seen as solely a way to gather more resources/power and survive in an ever increasingly hostile socioeconomic climate, people will always reach for the lowest hanging fruit to get to that goal, rather than actually knowing how to solve a problem that hasn't been solved before or inherently understand a problem that has been solved before or just know something relatively useless because it's interesting to them.
There's too many good reasons AI is fucking shit up, and in all honesty what people in general tote about AI is definitely just a hype cycle that will not end well for the majority of us and at the very least, we should be upset and angry about it.
Here are further resources if you didn't get enough ranting.
Fair enough. Its just one of those situations I'd hate to be in (i.e. starving but have a can of food with no can opener). Food so close yet so far...
