🥱

Whatever you say boss.

Lol. First you state the obvious. I don’t think anyone could interpret his comment in any other way. Then you think I’m naive for saying another obvious thing.

Did you just learn a a new word and wanted to use it?

Technically it probably won’t happen before the next presidential elections.

So blatantly, that I can imagine just a full fascist takeover of USA next.

I work a a software company that mainly develops one online software and people are used to work with computers. But even here I feel like there is some strange invisible barrier.

IT was trained to work on windows. What we do - everything works. The cost is there, calculated, it’s actually pretty small compared to everything else.

Changing is just unimaginable for a company like that - to take this risk, and for so little upside.

At a user level, almost no one would have an issue. But at the process level, damn.

I switched to Manjaro and it’s like nothing has changed for the work I do now.

At work we use windows and I don’t imagine that will ever go away. I don’t know enough about this stuff anyway, but I think there is to much work and risk involved to change.

I think you completely misunderstood.

Superficial bla.

That is obvious, but it’s not the land, is just the defence line. Hypotheticaly if they get NATO membership in exchange for Donbas, I think Ukraine would be all for that.

People aren’t giving their lives there for some fields in Donbas, but to protect the rest of their country and nation.

There are people there that just want a normal life. Conquered or not, that doesn’t mean anything compared to not being bombed while they are playing with their kids.

I think that’s the wrong narrative.

I don’t think anyone really cares much about that land. It’s s mixture of mud, plastic drone remains and unexploded munitions. It’s important because the defence line is there. Many people say it’s rich in minerals… a lot of land is in a lot of places. Nobody is going to use this land for mining, not at any time soon.

The narrative should be security guarantees.

Because when the news says: Zelensky doesn’t want to ceed land, it implies some kind of pride and stubbornness. But in reality Ukraine wants security guarantees and they would be willing to not militarily contest Crimea and even Donbas. There is no point in ceeding anything were there no guarantees. But if you get them, then a lot is on the table.

The point is it the news and everyone goes with security guarantees narrative it is a much stronger narrative: you want to exist, the enemy doesn’t want you to exist. Instead of taking about land where it can all sound like it bickering about who gets what. Perception matters. A lot of Europeans don’t know any the details of this war and most Americans have no clue. The narrative is important.

I got deleted from another channel “Ukraine” for this view and got called a lot of bad words and I don’t know why. It’s not an extreme view and I think Ukrainian government sees it like that as well.

Wasn’t this obvious? He didn’t need to go “all-in on ai” cause there is hundreds of thousands of people who tried the same thing already and everyone of them could tell him that’s not what ai can do.

I didn’t find anything about that. It seems that Israel doesn’t finance it any more than any other country.

It’s ideological, it’s not about money. As far as I know the thing is financed transparently.

I hope the whole thing dies. It’s just bizarre beyond belief that this love fest pride music festival is siding with genocide. It’s disgusting l, sickening.

I had that thing! It was really cool to watch a football match while camping!

And I gave it to my father when he was in the hospital… Eurocup was at the time.

Come on, nobody is going to eliminate poverty. That’s not on the agenda.

Plus we don’t even have a road how to make robots that could make other robots.

I think op is thinking of it like that and I definitely was. Or a decentralized platform.

Either of those and even an automated organization can easily have provisions for disputes.

Darkweb works well enough. I think you are wrong.

Massive capital only helps by lobbying and marketing.

Yes and it’s not new. There have been failed attempts to get out of Microsoft by governments and companies around the world for more than a decade. Its hard. The cost is huge, the benefit vague and distant.

The only reason why is gaining ground now it’s because US got really crazy. Not because of the cost of Windows licences. Not even because of invasive AI.
