It doesn't change climate, it's a local thing. A tiny change in weather isn't climate and this often doesn't make rain it's such a weak forcer. Been done off and on since the 1940s, old thing. And the AgI doesn't even dissolve in water so it's not bioavailable to any organisms, no salts!

It is utterly harmless to living things.

and how are you going to move and distribute food across the nation? or for that matter grow enough food to feed it? Modern tech is the only way now, unless you're advocating mass death. I'm fine with ultra-greenies advocating for population reduction, if they take on for the team and give themselves the first bullet. Otherwise, it's hypocrisy.

Delphi used in legacy systems from its peak in 1990s: all kinds of finance, insurance, medical, imaging and manufacturing system still have it around. Latest stable release was two months ago.

Should it die already? Sure! But will it? No!

Java is moving your money and insurance claims and trading. it's not going away in next 50 years.

Remember when commercial real estate was going to crash the economy? What happened to that imminent threat?

I do most of my shopping there, at Grocery Outlet, and at Costco. I actually do more shopping at grossout, because they are the closest thing that doesn't suck. We have a local market and mini-market, and I'm not a big fan of either one. (The market is somewhere around "OK", the mini market is disappointing.) I got Costco's card honestly just to get fuel quicker as the card is a membership card, and it's convenient for me to stop in there on my way to work.

Winco is an employee-owned co-op, and their pricing seems to be dynamic in general and the prices actually go back down, so I'm really happy with them. Grocery Outlet has beer I want to drink and high quality local dairy products, and an interesting and ever-changing stock of weird shit, and neither of the local ones are scuzzy. I have a chest freezer...

Of course it does. It doesn't have to do with just one thing. Keeping the machine spinning is the reason why even heartless fucks should be interested in workers' needs being met, if they weren't idiots. But that's the problem with such people, if you're smart then you realize that you don't want to live in a world of shit.

Trump propagandist spotted.

Yeah let's war on those places because they're such a threat and so bad.

You know who has the worst cartels and smuggles the most drugs into USA? our best buds the Colombians. But Venezuela is EVIL and needs regime change eh? Nothing to do with their having the largest proven oil reserves on Earth, nope.

Just because there are people available to work that doesn't mean they will be hired. And they won't be hired because of AI.

If the GOP continues to run the government the old people won't be a problem either because they will die when they lose health coverage.

Creating icons in the game is part of creating the game. You just said it wasn't used for that and then said it was used for that.

"I'm against AI slop as much as anyone, and in general a fan of regulation, but this really is something that should be solved by the market. If people don't want AI slop, let them not buy it"

This isn't about the slop. If you're a fan of regulation, and saving jobs isn't a good enough reason for you, wait you're not actually a fan.

My local supermarkets, at least the ones where I shop, don't allow purchases with credit. This is irritating AF even though I have the money in the bank because I get a percentage back.

Right, it's going to take Jihad.

False. Free Market is only one kind of Capitalism. Further, there has never actually been a free market of any significant size. It's an ideal which can only be approached, and ironically, it requires regulation to do so.
