    To be fair i do care quite a bit about that. Phones just make bad computers to me. Small screen and half is used by a keyboard.

    They seem designed to frustrate me so “it just works (most times)” is the only way i can stomach owning one.

    I have a dream where apple is forced to make ios fully open source and where screen/input devices can freely stream any system/OS from a dedicated server.

    Iphones are so “cleverly” dumb it makes them usable.

  • Autist here.

    We have a long history opposing societal, including gender, norms. And have deep connections with the early lgbt movements. Many people on the spectrum identify as queer.

    Its not a secret that Elon believes he is on the spectrum, and we know he has at least one queer child. We also know that people who are stuck in the closest often channel this through self hate and hate of others who express.

    Now that is interesting. “High T Males” on the other hands are a total joke.


  • This is a side effect of too much doomscrolling.

    Start of the article shows the genuine reaction is there: “Children giggle as young people flash their smartphones to film robots carrying plates of freshly prepared meals on their inbuilt trays to deliver to diners in a busy eatery in Kenya’s capital.”

    I cant say I disagree though, this is putting pressure on some of the twisted dynamics we live by indeed but i think your question doesn’t really work, exploiting people isnt the point, generating value with no regard of other life is and robotics make good slaves. The real issue is how will humans survive in an economy where there labor can no longer be used to obtain a share of the earth-pie.

    What we can do is be vocal about normalizing universal basic income which has proven to work. This way we can still be hyped about the technology. Its going to be a matter of either we do get there or we wont live to tell the difference.

    I can absolutely hear the bottom text as if it was a lyric from wish you were here.

    Got any rare favorites?

    I find myself quite drawn to the alternate tracks from around the time of ummagama these days. Some versions of the narrow way part III being a particular favorite.

    There is also a live album post dark side where they play songs that appear to be proto-animals but have the music of wish you were here.

    A great addition to any collection i dont think its on Spotify.

    Corporate memphis does incorporate a sort of identity vagueness.

    Almost all human features, body, skincolor are in a uncanny valley. Non-personal enough to be general yet similar enough to be relatable to pretty much any theoretical demographic.

    In reality it falls flat. Many people (non partisan) dislike it because of how artificial and shallow it feels.

    What it is definitely not is a deep plot to change the social perception of checks note people with non idealistic body features.

    Google has no economic incentive to improve your opinion of disabled people who are equally part of this group you appear to find non acceptable to exist in the workforce.
