We killed God once, and we can do it again.

Reminds me the Jackass 3D finale

It is, this is the latest version, Dance Dance Revolution 4: G.SKILL edition.

This reminds me of ELIZA, a natural language processing program from the 60’s that induced what they coined as the ELIZA effect, a tendency to anthropomorphize the computer. Joseph Wizenbaum, the computer scientist who created ELIZA, wrote Computer Power and Human Reason: From Judgment to Calculation in which he contends that while artificial intelligence may be possible, we should never allow computers to make important decisions, as they will always lack human qualities such as compassion and wisdom.

Most people STILL have no concept of how digital mass surveillance functions, what it can do, and how it can be used to manipulate them right now, today. Now, it’s common practice to pour your heart out to and have intimate extended relationships with AI systems controlled by the very same corporate surveillance complex.

The danger is not that AI will become self aware and turn against humanity, it is that people will not realize that it has already been turned against us by its masters.

Usually, the penis must first be removed for the asshole to gape.

The MBAs have taken over the world and are enshitifying entire safety critical industries. They’ve been testing how high they can get the stock price/deaths ratio before someone makes them stop. This is why some industries just shouldn’t be driven by profit, and very near the top of that list is aviation safety.

With the FAA overrun with industry goons and Trump appointees, and aircraft design flaws now acceptable as a cost of doing business, we can expect more regulatory cuts and bits of passenger strewn about the landscape.

If you know Flock, most of their cheap cameras go down all by themselves. Even when they’re operating as intended, their capture rates are under 70%, which is why you usually find them in pairs monitoring the same direction of traffic. That dinky solar panel can barely power them through the night so most of their cameras are dead in the early morning hours.

The only way Flock stays in business is by literally giving their cameras away by illegally installing them in municipalities and waiting for them to be ordered removed. You’d probably be doing most cities a favor by taking them down.

With actual headlines like this, how is The Onion still in business?

Yes, purchase legitimately from Microsoft with a genuine Microsoft license key from Microsoft because software piracy is wrong and totally not justified in the face of abusive software monopolies.

I recommend Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC, which is supported until 2032 and has never required me to update my fucking clock or calculator, never crashed my SSD, and never randomly encrypted my hard drive and lost the recovery keys! And, there’s no OneDrive, Copilot, Recall, Cortana, Clippy, or whatever else Microsoft’s cocaine addled executives have come up with this week to FUCK us.

Since thats the standard for operating systems we’re working with now, I’d say this one is pretty good!

Here’s how you can purchase your copy today!

Well, he’s dead now so you have nothing to fear.

Google, Apple, and Microsoft are all doing the same thing with their operating systems. Soon, everything you do on your device will be recorded, analyzed, compiled, and cross-referenced. All of it ready to be used against you in advertisements, commerce, and a court of law.

If you think age checks are bad now, wait until it’s enforceably illegal to even look at pornography on your device. Or, maybe you receive a knock at your door for a missed period, or some questionable searches while pregnant? Higher ride app pricing for a low phone battery? Now your digital credit score determines your eligibility and cost for a ride. Think your VPN will hide that pirated movie or your location? Who needs to bypass encryption when your entire screen is analyzed by a hardware driven AI classification system in real-time.

Advertisers, authoritarians, media execs, and tech bros are vibrating so hard that they’re starting to glow. This is the real AI revolution into which they have sunk so much money. Do you think they’re just going to accept that they won’t get a return on their investment because you think you have a right to privacy?

How long will we even have access to hardware and software that doesn’t contain baked-in content analysis?

Yea, that last time the US and Russia did this we had to ban nuclear weapons in space.

I don’t know much about MMA or Ireland and I could have told you that.

Nothing. If people are protesting invasive bloat with by saying they’d rather have Clippy, I’d rather go back to Notepad.

However, it appears that Windows 11 notepad has fallen prey as well? Maybe then I need a profile pic of a needle and a magnetic plate…

Predatory software has become so bad that now we have to use the previous generation’s intrusive hated features to protest the new ones.

Here’s my protest profile pic.
