Congrats on 15 year old propaganda. Today they can build better quality cars faster and cheaper. And before you open your yap about safety, these vehicles pass EU safety standards which are more stringent than what the USA requires.

Exactly the way I said you would too. You don't call me a luddite because I already pointed that out and it would be too obvious if you use the word so instead you completely ignore the points I made and instead pretend I argued that we should go all Amish and ban technology.

This way you can avoid having to deal with the social implications of work shortages. You even at the end managed to shift the blame to the people losing their jobs and their livelihoods.

This way as society collapses around you as long as you aren't personally affected you don't have to do anything. I mean anything except talk about how fucking awesome you are and how much everybody else are lazy and shiftless.

All I can say is you better hope you die of old age before the effects of your line of thought come home to roost. You can only ignore the collapse of human civilization for so long. Especially when people with literally trillions of dollars are making it happen sooner. I used to think guys like you would get away with it but Elon Musk and the rest of those pieces of shit have accelerated things so much I don't think he will anymore.

Did you get your statistics from Grokipedia?

Cash isn't going anywhere. Cryptocurrency might. It is primarily used for money laundering and crime.

Honestly if they just crack down on the money laundering it goes away overnight.

"when schoolkids go, and they look up answers to questions about the meaning of 'socialism' ... they're going to find an explanation that completely ignores any conservative, libertarian, or critical treatment of the subject", "And that's really problematic.

He makes a big deal about being neutral and when the word socialism comes up he demands it be bad mouthed by Fox News.

If there are no ads, how do you pay for it?

Not my problem. If people aren't willing to pay subscription fees, then that's fine; social media platforms can die off.

I would note that Mastodon follows all of my suggestions except the subscription fee part, and it seems to be doing OK.

Sure, but it enormously slows the spread of fake news outside the circle of friends.

Many people start out reasonable, but get sucked into all kinds of wacko beliefs by sponsored or suggested posts.

I'm not in charge of any, but I use Mastodon, which follows all of my suggestions except a subscription fee, and it's fantastic.

Probably because it's correct. Can you explain "cultural marxism" without googling it?

I'd love a nice HUD on normal-looking glasses, driven by a local connection to my phone.

Never would I ever touch anything that's basically a camera ingesting everything for submission to Facebook.

The moment I hear it's from 'X', that's exactly what I presume, because if you have any decency at all you don't choose a site that protects Nazism for your social media fix.

Guilt by association isn't perfect, but some times the choice of associates speaks so loudly you can't ignore it.

No you don't understand. All these data centers expected enough power from the utilities. But when the wait was months to a year, they all started building gas turbines in lieu of the local utility.

You are confusing stories. New Brunswick is building a gas turbine to alleviate the power problem in two years. The reactor is being built in Ontario for the sake of longer into the future.

Then you visit their profile once in a while. Or we add an option for changing the view away from strict reverse-chronological, but make sure that reverse-chronological is the default.

Yes, I am prescribing how the companies must run because their very business model is inherently dangerous and harmful. The "engagement" business model has proven across multiple companies that it is inherently (and unfixably) damaging. We already regulate plenty of business models (eg, gambling.)

I'm fine with assigning liability, but that's reactive. It's like saying: "Oh, we are not going to regulate power cables by requiring a UL stamp, but if you get a shock, feel free to sue the manufacturer."
