When I was 15, I knew it was wrong to stab people. It’s not like getting into a fight on the playground. When you bring out a knife, or any deadly weapon, you immediately escalate things way beyond what school administration can handle.

As a kid, I knew there were crimes I could do that were just “boys being boys.” Smoking weed, petty theft, vandalism, even getting into fist-fights. I also knew there were crimes that were off limits, such as rape and murder. Just about everyone around me knew the same thing, too.

You’re advocating for a culture that encourages kids to commit more crimes and more serious crimes than they otherwise would because they know they will get off easy.

Good.

We should not let acts of violence like go unpunished.

We need to set an example for anyone else who may be thinking about committing the same thing.

That blows.

I think Ubuntu made sense back in the day when Debian wasn’t as user-friendly.

Now that Debian is, it looks like Ubuntu is trying really hard to just be as commercialized as possible.

I still don’t understand the logic behind their paying for updates for certain programs when Debian doesn’t require it.

Our senators are worthless leeches that only exist to argue over problems that will never get solved.

Let’s see them implement policies that actually benefit the average American instead of just their ruling class.

They all wear nice suits.

You mean western dominance?

It should be interesting to see who pays for this when Russia wins.

Pretty sure the US is one of the few nations that never said they wouldn’t use them.

Ukraine can’t win without Western troops.

It’s that simple.

I swear, some of you people are just arguing with yourselves at this point.

It’s like playing leapfrog when nobody else is there.

Ukraine can’t win without Western troops.

It’s that simple.

Culture, which can change.

I agree. It’s great to have machines do the work we don’t want to do so we can do other things with our lives.

We just need to get over this mentality that those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.

So… do nothing about it?

Not really.

Personally, I’ve found AI is wrong about 80% of the time for questions I ask it.

It’s essentially just a search engine with cleverbot. If the problem you’re dealing with is esoteric and therefore not easily searchable, AI won’t fare any better.

I think AI would be a lot more useful if it gave a percentage indicating how confident it is in its answers, too. It’s very useless to have it constantly give wrong information as though it is correct.

“Designers” desperate to stay relevant and make their worthless degrees seem worthwhile.

I actually just use my phone for internet and haven’t had a landline ISP for 2 years now.

Visible, $25/month has saved me so much money and they even sent me a free phone.

Everyone is different.

I personally think copyright and patent laws need to die. If you can’t protect your own secrets, don’t rely on taxpayer resources to do it for you.

White-collar workers were cool with machines and poorer nations taking blue-collar jobs. Now that it threatens them and their money, the hypocrisy is on full display.
