Comment REGULATION: the world's worst thing ever (Score -1) 77

Regulators should be afraid of weaponized Ai. So should censors. So should monopolists.

All of the things the State has done in the past 500 years has been corrupt and bureaucratic and caused harm. All. Not most, but all.

All of the people who supported it, from monopolists to lobbyists to activists caused harm.

Ai is undoing it all. Not piece by piece but all at once.

I, for one, can't wait to see folks zapped for restraining voluntary behavior.

I am a very lame producer, but I make really good money at it. It started as a hobby back in 2015.

I use Ai now with all our customers. We will NEVER hire anyone who has EVER used the word "SAG" in their resume or social media profile.

SAG => monopoly => control who can act => if you don't agree with SAG's politics, you can't act.

It's well past time to remove SAG from the market through market forces. Ai is absolutely AMAZING for my client base, they love being able to change the race, gender, location of a commercial with a few clicks.

I absolutely can't wait to send these SAG clowns packing.

Comment I am buying less, and I am pretty happy about it. (Score -1) 104

...I didn't support Trump (ever), but I am actually happy about this.

1. I am spending about 70% less on Amazon. I cancelled Prime already, after so many years.
2. I am decluttering what I do own. We found some unopened boxes of Amazon orders from years ago, in the basement. Sold that NIB stuff on FB Marketplace.
3. I am paying more attention to how I can buy in bulk for the items I do want (whey protein, nitrile gloves, etc). Amazon is too expensive on EVERYTHING, but the convenience seemed "worth it".
4. I don't know what else I might ever actually need from buying online, really.

I used my Ai agent to analyze my Amazon spend over 15 years, and it's ridiculous. I want to cut that spend by 90% in 2026, and put the 10% to relationship vendors I can buy bulk from.

Comment As an indie film producer... (Score 0) 98

...I make bad bad bad quality films. 3/10 usually. If we get 6/10, we screwed up.

Our goal is simple: create films for people to watch in the background of their doom scrolling, so we get the ad revenue share. That's IT.

Hollywood is dead. I release most of my low quality films in theaters. I stand in the front of the theater and watch the audience and they all doom scroll. So I went to a few huge name actor films this year, and did the same.

Guess what? Audiences doom scroll in the theater, too.

No.

Take the 4 years of college you wasted, and the 4 years of high school you wasted to prep for college and instead look at what you could have done financially and learning skills and saving those incomes while living at home for free.

College is a net and gross loss compared to any skill building job at 15-22, along with zero cost of living and 8 years of stacking in any high yield ETF.
