Not while humans have psychological vulnerabilities to exploit to maintain addiction to it, and certainly not now that nation-states and other powerful actors have realized just how damn effective it can be as a type of propaganda.

There's a reason even a giant company like Facebook has given up on trying to connect people and instead wants to serve up news feeds, articles, information, etc.

Ignorant know-nothing here. How does M and A work when the target isn't another company but an open source-focused organization/organization focused around an open-source product like Red Hat?

The C-Suite is filled with ignorant people who have made a career out taking credit for other people's work.

Now they want to pretend that the "AI is writing the code" just because a developer is making use of it.

All AI is doing is giving CEOs an excuse to called yet another group of workers, "unskilled."

Teachers are paid for 40 hours per week. And not well. Current starting salaries are enough to afford to live in a ditch.

They teach 5 classes per day. They get 1 period free when students cannot come into their classroom. Plus 1 hour before school and 1 hour after school when students can come in.

The system thinks grading papers and preparing lessons are free services that teachers provide.

The system will do anything but hire more teachers so that they each can have 3 periods per day and spend the rest of the time grading, prepping, and helping students during their paid hours.

Don't worry, the skilled trades will be devalued as well. They already are.

Companies just don't want to pay proper wages and will make every lame excuse they can to justify it.

Most people who work full time struggle just to pay rent.

They aren't "irresponsible."

They have to pay their rent and put food on the table. If business owners paid living wages, people wouldn't be playing games just to survive.

There are no shortage of stores you can go into today where these "job creators" have one poverty wage employee working.

Castillo de San Marcos - Built at Sea Level in 1672.

Castillo de San Marcos - Still at Sea Level in 2025.

Wasn't this how the zombies in Romero's original Night of the Living Dead get created? A Venusian probe crashing back to Earth?

That's all this is about. Skilled labor thinks they're worth money. Unskilled labor can be paid minimum wage.

It's long past time for developers to unionize and stop playing the game of letting rich people oppress workers by demeaning them to justify poverty wages.

pay for them.

You pay for 40 hours a week, you get 40 hours a week.

as if 2 voices cried out in terror and then were silenced.

virus and malware have been doing this forever. The difference is that they are very small programs so they can do this instantly.

If you get the USB-3 cable, you can use the Quest as a standard VR headset connected to your PC. Since the Switch 2 has far better hardware than the Switch and USB-C video out, that makes it possible in theory for the Quest to be a VR headset for the Switch 2 as well.

Of course not.

Work the hours you're paid. Go home.
