More Futurism slop, it just don't stop.

Tech Lemmy loves its Futurism

omg I'm in a shitpost lemmy...

I guess but Futurism may as well be AI slop, though - and these articles keep popping up on my lemmy feed from tech - it's wild.

More garbage futurism ads getting glazed.

Is this just like, a thing on Lemmy? I thought this was the website for media literacy.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Futurism articles are just written by AI tbh...

Low bar journalism and reporting.

Oh yeah, I'm sure they'll out him any day now...

This article, like many Futurism articles, is conditioning. It's wild Futurism gets glazed so much on tech lemmy.

As the Wall Street Journal phrased it...

fkn lol.

These articles do not deserve the attention lemmy gives them, and should be downvoted and called out as such.

Do you think doing so would take away one of the cats 9 lives each time?

Or does each clone get it's own separate set of 9 lives?

I'm assuming doing so will make it more difficult to Nationalize when the time eventually comes.

And that change was the mass deployment of Flock cameras Nation-wide.

Small business owners are not just fucking McDonalds franchises. Some are cafe owners, boardgame store owners, IT companies. These are not slave labor organizations but small teams of people working together in a system that demands capital to survive. They're absolutely pivotal because they often can provide services at better rates for their community, or are social hubs without needing to spend capital. They absolutely are pivotal because they can teach people trades while earning for a living. They absolutely are pivotal because they're not greedy corpos trying to extract every ounce of capital from their community, they're most regular ass people looking to just get by. They usually provide fair wages to their small teams so they can also survive. They provide direct alternatives to buying from big box corporations or ordering off Amazon, Temu, or whatever bullshit online megastore. Some source their product organically and some wholesale.

Do you not go to social gathers like boardgame groups or outings? Do you not travel at all? Your worldview is extremely narrow.

What a dogshit ass take. Small business owners are hardly "selling their humanity to be a owning-class pig". Most people just try to get by in the system they're born into. Many small businesses aren't beholden to some franchise and are pivotal to bringing their small community together.

Like, what fucking system do you live in were you don't work and only provide for those around you? Are you farming your own produce to disperse among your community or do you work some bullshit ass job like the rest of the world so you can virtue signal on Lemmy to feel better about your situation? My bet is on the latter.

Get fucking real.

Is it really a fascist lie?

At least in the U.S. the educational burden has certainly increased. The cost of living, the closing of schools and combining of districts, the stagnant wages of teachers, the shortage of teachers due to the stagnation, the automation of jobs is removing apprenticeships, LLMs do not teach as well as doing things hands on. The influence of social media is still a strong pull and media literacy feels like it's at a low in the U.S.

I have a feeling in the next decade we're going to start seeing the consequences as boomers age out of legacy jobs and automation takes the place where educated workers used to.
