I would answer this but I feel like it’s just a billionaire in disguise trying to figure out how to better market their product and that sums up why I hate 2026
I can’t even trust that you’re human. That’s why.
As someone who has never farmed, I don’t understand why people think they’ll retire through farming, arguably one of the most back breaking jobs with least pay to produce stuff that costs the least out of anything… And is due to become more and more difficult as climate change gets complex.
This is not the type of manual labor you want to learn how to do and invest in as you’re older?
But yeah maybe managing some chickens and an herb farm, whatever that’s not a big deal. I just would expect to only be supplementing what groceries you buy as a hobby, not homesteading. Don’t get fucking acres of farmland that you won’t know how to use… Grow some rosemary and thyme, maybe potatoes. Fuck even one fruit tree is a lot of work. Try that out first. Potatoes! Try stuff you can do with a balcony first. Maybe a goat if you’re really wild.
But these are hobbies, not retirement income.
Honey, you see a tortoise on the ground
I was playing Cult of the Lamb and beating it, decided to look up any videos to see if I missed any lore or whatever, like what happens if you make other choices…
Surprisingly missed so fucking much about the world. Either the streamer was making up bullshit or the world is way deeper than I thought, with a whole history of why the crowns and gods exist.
I’d love to see lawsuits force Microsoft and Nvidia and OpenAI to open source everything they had AI touch 😁
Finally someone said it. I honestly was wondering why no one was complaining about this… I’ve worked on some open source myself, licensed it GPL, and never intended for it to be used as training data.
Doesn’t the GPL cover shit like this? There should be mass lawsuits hitting any AI that used open source software and didn’t just specifically use BSD projects or something.
If you train an LLM on GPL code, it should be illegal to sell that LLM and use it commercially without revealing ALL THE SOURCE you used and the source to regenerate that model.
these are billionaires surrounded by yes men. Idiots like Elon Musk used to have smart PR but then their ego and narcissism took over and they built some weird cult of personality where if you disobey you lose your source of income, so they’re surrounded by followers.
I’ve been relatively close to a techie who became a CEO and it corrupts them. They think that shit lasts forever and start acting like how they think heartless money worshipping CEOs should act.
People like Zuck don’t realize that luck is half of what made them that big, that it’s not genius level business maneuvers. They were just lucky entrepreneurs. When they put money where their mouth is, you get the Metaverse, the cyber truck, stupid shit driven by ego.
Now that Facebook elders are dying off, they get “AI layoffs” which arent actually ai related, and courts that are no longer in favor of them.
This honestly shouldn’t be surprising. Tech is often untrusted at first.
This caused the dot com bust and likely will fuel the AI bubble. New cool tech comes out and actually does cool stuff, people hate it, distrust it, don’t want to use it, meanwhile others think it’s the wave of the future and throw all their money at it.
And there’s one big problem with that, the last thing specifically… they throw their money at something new before a market is ready to trust and adopt it, and they do so in an unsustainable way. Unsustainable investments cause bubbles. This is money that can’t keep getting pumped into the tech, money that a lot of startups depend on.
People didn’t think you’d ever spend money on weird websites, trust credit cards to be entered online. So many groundbreaking ideas busted in the dot com bubble because they came too soon, not because they were bad ideas. WebVan was online groceries! Groundbreaking idea that was literally 30 years ahead of its time, and now they failed, but who does what they tried to do? Amazon, yes the little online marketplace for books Amazon, the quaint little site where you can buy books over http.
The market needed credit card safety measures, needed PayPal, stripe, fraud detection and management, needed new technologies to build consumer trust. Eventually, we started using the internet to buy shit and it worked out.
Wikipedia used to be untrusted. Anyone can put anything there! Now teachers rather see wikipedia than AI bullshit. Same phenomenon really. It’ll take a while before the market adopts the tech and consumers trust it. Eventually they will, but not yet.
