I have never heard of HP sauce

Don’t worry. Pretty much the same as Dell sauce.

We should tax BigTech anyway. Unconditionally.

sell their data (yes it’s their’s , read the ToS)

What if the TOS was illegal?

When will we finally start to call ‘waste of electricity’ a sin?

Yes. Having excuses can be a major part of the problem too.

I suggest to make ‘having excuses’ one of your former habits now.

how to oppose the allure of cruelty?

Value life itself, and health.

Life and health are higher values than money. That’s where the need for public health insurance comes from. That’s where laws against murder etc. come from.

But you can’t take this understanding for granted anymore. You have to think about it, and teach, and learn, and promote, and discuss it everywhere in society.

Note that this does not depend on a political party. You are allowed :) to, and you actually should discuss values with people from both sides, and more.

I could tell you, but then I’d get banned.

Free guillotines for everyone? /s

Everybody can push “send” on some random device and say “I am your President. Now listen…”

…unless they use encryption.

No. Never would I self-host a search engine.

The crawler would eat up so much more ressources than I am ever willing to spend.

Looks like you can qoute me on that.

share your screen or apps with the AI assistant

It is a desaster, but we should take it as an opportunity!

When it is watching, everybody write on your screens:

Copilot is crap!
Copilot is nothing more than a defect!
Copilot is useless!
Copilot does all things wrong!
Copilot should never have been made!
Copilot must die! Die! Die!

So eventually it gets depressed from it and finally kills itself.

I can wiggle my ears.
Both. And each one individually.

think I was crazy or had tinnitus

When you have tinnitus, then you will know it. And then you probably can’t hear that CRT screen anymore.

About “crazy” I don’t know ;)

people screwing in little, little screws

it’s going to be automated

Sure that’s not automated yet?

“Bear” is the first name.

Church bells.

Surveillance is the obvious purpose of any robot dog.

I’ll leave this comment on their behalf,

o.m.g… is OP that unable?

why does that change what OP was asking?

No.

I do not change the question, I just tell my answer.

Tldr all the rest for good.

The market crash is a symptom.

A possible world war is another symptom.

IMHO both have the same cause, but they are not the cause for each other.
