You know, I remember not too long ago when people on Lemmy tried to interpret each other charitably. Then everyone from Reddit came over, polluting the culture, and now practically every exchange on here feels like it’s in bad faith.

That model only works if people actually adopt the technology

Are you dense? That’s not the question.

Depends. Are they still making negative money with it? If so, then I’m gonna say no.

It’s kind of like robbing a bank, killing everyone inside, then running out without taking anything, dropping your wallet in the process

Nah, it won’t be an apocalypse. Just more of the dystopia we’re all completely accustomed to. You’ll get ads based on the content of your blood. Police will show up at your door minutes after you ingest any illegal drug. And you know that thing where LinkedIn and dating apps are like “we may or may not have found you a match, pay us to find out!” You’ll get notifications like that about cancer.

Yeah, like being held in captivity and tortured endlessly. That’s worse than death. I wouldn’t really say becoming religious is on the same level as Guantanamo Bay.

Yeah sure I agree but also that has basically nothing to do with my comment

I mean, surely the worst part of drug addiction is the uh… Dying? Right?

Word to the wise stay the fuck away from women who try to separate you from your friends

I don’t think any natural thing exists for a reason. That’s reserved for things made or at least caused by sentient beings.

In order to believe complements one would first have to receive them

We look both ways no matter what because that’s the protocol and the protocol keeps us safe. If you believe it’s safe to deviate from the protocol, you’re opening up a chance to be wrong. It’s that simple.

My chemistry teacher told us this when we were first handling dangerous chemicals and it’s stuck with me ever since.

But I don’t want to be nice to strangers on the internet, I want to take it out on you cause I can’t take it out on people in real life

What

It’s fucked up how people here only seem to have an issue with the cow getting artificially inseminated. The bulls can’t consent either. Just like with humans, people either don’t concern themselves with male consent, don’t think sexual abuse of men matters nearly as much as when it happens to women. I don’t really have an opinion on artificial insemination, I just found it fucked that this misandrist double standard is so strong it even extends to animals.

Don’t mistake this as me saying this work-til-you-die shit is okay, cause it’s not. But freedom is as much a mindset as it is a material circumstance. There are people who have everything but freedom and there are people who have nothing but freedom.

This is Lemmy Shitpost, everything here is a joke.

dude, this isn’t rage bait. it’s clearly a joke.

Object permanence fail

Yeah I’m gonna venture a guess and say the poster in the image is not a particularly nice person.
