I’m convinced cars are so insultingly expensive now because manufacturers have completely lost the plot!! 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

I need my car to DRIVE.

I don’t need a panoramic command center, biometric identification, ambient lighting that matches my menstrual cycle and a computer that requires a software update before I can turn the freakin air conditioner on. 😭

Please, for the love of God just give me AC, Bluetooth, MAYBE a backup camera and an engine that doesn’t DIE at 70,000 miles.

You built a vehicle. Stop adding unnecessary shit that’s making them unaffordable…..

currently mourning the fact that, not only are people generally becoming more illiterate & less academically capable, but also:

-more cruel
-less respectful of the arts & humanities
-less curious
-less creative
-worse at understanding nuance / hypotheticals / abstract concepts

Friendly reminder that every new AI trend is just another massive data mining exercise of your facial data. we really shouldn't be okay with this.

This is terrifying.

Your TV might be one of 216,000,000 LG smart TVs sold worldwide.

Researchers rooted one and pulled plain text transcripts of what people said in the room.

It kept recording while the screen looked off.

If your TV can do that, it’s time to look at everything else on your desk👇🏻

Let me get this straight... OpenAl was founded as a nonprofit. Open source. For everyone. "To benefit humanity." Then he raised billions of dollars. Then he closed the source code. Then he converted to for-profit. Then he scraped the entire internet without asking anyone. Then he used YOUR writing YOUR art YOUR code to train his models. Now he's on stage saying you'll pay HIM to access intelligence. Just like a water meter. He stole all of your data. He built the product with your work. And now he's going to bill you to use it... Corporate greed has reached an all time high, and they're not even hiding it anymore...

Also, the refusal to surrender or adopt out sick fish before “bringing them to the hospital tank in the back” is ridiculous as PetSmart stores have been regularly caught discarding live animals in dumpsters. Animal welfare over profits, regardless of the species.

[C @czavarelli]

Hey, @PetSmart your standards for betta care in your stores are atrocious. As a regular PetSmart customer, I have yet to see healthy betta husbandry in any of your stores. Do better.

[Ponzi Wells @SideStepSam_]

This was the wildest shit I’ve ever seen. If you have 15 minutes of free time, it’s definitely worth a watch

[Just.A.Thought 💭 @e_galv]

Yes. But that’s the whole point. Buy it, suck it dry, strip it of everything that made it enjoyable, and kill it. Purposefully.

There will be no choice in any type of service in the future.

Welcome to Costco, I love you.

Eating breakfast at my hotel and I overhear a lady say “I asked ChatGPT where the locals eat”. Guys, we are losing water because people are asking AI questions like this. There is a literal table of brochures, magazines, and flyers highlighting local businesses in the lobby btw.
