The Nazis were also extremely incompetent when I came to stuff like this. Hitler had generals scrambling behind his back to produce their best weapon, but he kept finding out and making them stop along with tons of other micromanaging.

Trump is an idiot and so is musk. Most business people are short sighted and fascists even more. They also may be high on their own farts and think the system won't collapse with them "in charge" like a toddler left in s room full of candles and napalm.

Not saying that foreign powers aren't loving this, but they don't have to have control over it.

I hate a lot of people for different reasons.

I hate the people who voted for him, but they are not the majority.

I hate the people who stayed home. I get it. Harris had issues. But so many were saying they didn't want it vote for her because of Gaza. Now, Gaza will get glassed while we have so many more problems at home.

Personally, I don't care if it seems selfish, I do not have the capacity to care about Gaza anymore. The only chance we had was convincing Harris. Now I'm too worried about what will happen to me and my friends as queer people.

And that's before we get to the general economic issues. Shit is about to get really desperate for everyone.

So many of us tried to get those people to see. I'm positive much of the Gaza stance was being pushed by the right to split the left. We'll it worked. They fell for it. Now we have even more issues.

I can not say this with any more virtiol: fuck anyone who didn't vote for Harris, regardless of the reason, but especially if it was an active decision because of Gaza. You both actively made things worse for Gaza and doomed us all.

You wanted shortsighted smug feel goods about taking a moral high ground. In doing so, you paved the way for fascism and laid down the fucking red carpet.

That, and they are just brute forcing the problem. Neural nets have been around for ever but it's only been the last 5 or so years they could do anything. There's been little to no real breakthrough innovation as they just keep throwing more processing power at it with more inputs, more layers, more nodes, more links, more CUDA.

And their chasing a general AI is just the short sighted nature of them wanting to replace workers with something they don't have to pay and won't argue about it's rights.

I'm white, but also trans. Currently preparing to move across country to a state where I hope to maintain some rights.

I'm privileged enough to be able to do that, but I also am aware that my job may be at risk with everything going on. This last week has me anxious enough that my ADHD medication is barely doing anything to help me focus on most tasks.

It's the same shit MLK said about the white moderate. Anyone fine and comfy is perfectly OK with other people being denied rights because doing something to fix it means upsetting the status quo and stuff might end up a bit harder for them.

Meanwhile, so many people getting deported means we are about to enter in a massive food shortage and price hike that will effect them. But they will rationalize like they always do that this wasn't something they could have forseen desire the rest of us telling them exactly what was going to happen.

For fuck sake, there were people like that who basically claimed we were crazy for quoting the shit trump said he was going to do. Saying it was hyperbole. Like Trump even knows what that is.

I don't know much about it either, but in general conservatives and the right at large have no media literacy. Everything is shallow and face value to them. They see pro military crushing stuff deemed "lesser" and they basically get off on it.

It's the same reason for right wing star trek fans. They see space military and ignore all the themes and other things like the fact there is no capitalism. It's always pushed left ideas, yet only now it's "gone woke" because it's pushing modern left ideas, not stiff they've learned to ignore.

Just look at any media made by conservatives for conservatives. It's terrible and the kind of wish fulfillment youd expect from a child telling a story.

I haven't done much with UI in general, but the one time I thought of making some UI stuff in windows I gave up.

Even modifying an existing .net program someone else made for a feature I wanted was a nightmare.

[-] Naia 17 points 2 months ago

Like I feel they should want right wing nuts to be mad about the game. They won't stop talking about media that are mad about and so many conservatives will still buy the thing even just to destroy it and virtue signal to the other idiots.

The left? Some may still buy it, but most don't talk about it at all. The idea of "go woke go broke" has always been a message of intent, not reality, at least in the modern era.

Nothing makes me want to try a game or watch a show more than legitimate, non surface level representation that incels whine about.

Accelerationist Theory just means a bunch of people are going to suffer and die. Society might change, but is far more likely to get worse for everyone.

This is exactly how fascism gains power.

[-] Naia 18 points 3 months ago

I'd say we should churn out AI slop ourselves that says all these CEOs are dying from autoeroticasphyxia, but we know they wouldn't actually apply their rules equally.

[-] Naia 18 points 2 years ago

Ah, good lol horse shoe theory. Because wanting people to be treated equally and have Healthcare is totally equivalent to wanting a white ethnostate and calling for the murder of queer people.

And here my barely awake trans ass was wondering why the crow was talking about estrogen 😅.

I need coffee.

I actually learned of that whole thing directly from vanta and the idea people would claim she's some white tech bro is low key hilarious.

But the straight media tends to ignore queer movements in general.
