Data theft? Data should be a public good where authors are guaranteed a dignified life (decoupled from the sale of their labor).

I’ve seen it said somewhere that, with the advent of AI, society has to embrace UBI or perish, and while that’s an exaggeration it does basically get the point across.

Nah those guys hate (gen)AI because it’s (gen)AI, or for other reasons that are ultimately intrinsic to the tech such as the intellectual property aspect.

Probably because all the criminals are too busy posting about scary Muslim knife attacks on X.

Why not both, but also no way this is happening without the permission and/or direction of the billionaire class so oil is definitely involved.

If they could do that they wouldn’t try to get people to avoid unionizing. They still need people to work for them, regulations or no regulations.

Yeah that’s why he’s hiding.

Don’t forget “Why can’t you? Are you missing an arm or a leg” or whatever your language’s equivalent is.

You fool, now she’s 3D!

It’s funny how 5 and 6 are straight up hijabis. Also have you considered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kotatsu?

Makes sense.

Why, though? I mean it’s not like Britain had to rebuild anything right?

I think rightmost second from the top guy’s problem is a bit bigger than just size.

Definitely, but a red state in 2025 is right up there with third world countries at war for the umpteenth time in terms of bad spawn locations if Trump continues doing his thing.

Or he could be just asexual, that’s a thing too.

Most of the world if that’s all it took (circa 2024 at least). The US isn’t the best place to live, and it’s worse than places like Western Europe or the Nordics, but to someone from a third world country it’s still much better than what they can get at home.
