And Trump has proven that reasoning invalid. Things are never going back to the way they were before now that he’s shown just how much you can get away with. Until mechanisms are put in place to prevent such corruption and deal with his kind we can’t trust the government to handle anything.
I already said it wasn’t ideal. At least Trump had to do some shit first to fuck with tiktok. You think that wouldn’t have been immediate if tiktok was controlled by the government?
It’s not ideal but at least people aren’t getting their credit cancelled because they said something mean about Trump online.
Which is the situation we’re dealing with here.
A corrupt government can also be bought off by the companies to not fuck with things so that they at least remain functional.
In an ideal world, yes I’d rather these things be regulated in a way that the companies are accountable but that is not the world we live in. Moving this to the public sector now would just put even more power into the hands of our horrible government. Better to have everything split up so all the greedy malicious assholes are looking out for themselves than to have it all in the hands of one group who will do whatever they want with nothing to impede them. Regardless of consequences. Fix the government first , then give them control. You can’t legislate based off the idea that it will only be well intentioned responsible adults running things.
At least the private company would act in their own interest to preserve profits. Trump will gladly blow the whole thing up regardless of consequences just to feed his ego. Like with the tariffs.
So then you do understand how having our transactions controlled by the government is a bad thing?
You want trump in control of our commercial transactions?
We delete your data after we hand it off to our partners. Who definitely do not delete it.
Me too. Only issue I have is it’s kind of janky on Android where it doesn’t pick up files created by other apps.
Don’t blame the computers. Blame the corporate dickheads that are misusing them to fuck us in every way imaginable. Computers are great.
Why wait? He’s already telegraphed his intentions since he got in office. Why let him consolidate his power all the way til the elections happen (or don’t)? There is more than enough shit he’s done to justify removing him from office.
Cough in Trumps mouth first.
I was in scouts. People brought their sisters to meetings all the time. They joined in whatever we were doing and it was fine. I also went on a couple girl scout trips. I don’t even remember how that happened but we had a fun time. Most of the girls I met as a kid and remained friends with through my teens I met through scouts. Good experiences all around.
It’s been consistent enough so far so most people probably won’t give a shit. It’ll be like americans ignoring the metric system.
I have been ship of theseusing my desktop and server for 15 years. This article is fucking stupid.
LLMs learned it by watching these idiots.
Never forget that the morally correct thing to do if you happen to meet one of these people it to punch them in the mouth.
Then there was me bouncing between Morrowind and Chrono Cross depending on who’s turn it was with the PC.
No, but we shouldn’t be arguing in favor of them until we deal with the more pressing matters.
