Because our society is profoundly corrupt

i would rather have video go black for the duration of ad than watch that filth

Obviously they wont “let” them. Why would they ever do that? They have to be made to do it. But I hope i’m wrong, we will see.

Forcing advanced keylogger to your system that anyone who has skills to break into your system can exploit freely does that

I dont want to read or see negative news, but it feels i have to be aware of them so things dont hit me blindsided. I’m so tired of this world

It could be good thing, but price for that is making being unemployed okay.

I just use it to get ideas about how to do something or ask it to write short functions for stuff i wouldnt know that well. I tried using it to create graphical ui for script but that was constant struggle to keep it on track. It managed to create something that kind of worked but it was like trying to hold 2 magnets of opposing polarity together and I had to constantly reset the conversation after it got “corrupted”.

Its useful tool if you dont rely on it, use it correctly and dont trust it too much.

no, the conflict would likely turn even worse. Way too many see animals as inferior beings for people to just agree on something like this.

both of those should get split up too

if stomach gets cut, the acid could flow out. Death by being dissolved by your own stomach acid wouldnt be nice one.

we are just chattel to them, why would they care

i wish people knew better than buy stuff from certain companies. But they dont and they dont care, so everyone who does care shall suffer.

Even the advertisers don’t lose out because you wouldn’t have paid attention to the ad too. They might even win a little because now one doesn’t have to get annoyed by the ad and deliberately not buy the thing.

You are right.

But I try to think things as objectively as possible and hope others would too (but dont expect it).

No one probably thinks what they are doing is wrong or at least try to find justification for it, objectively there are things that cause good or bad things regardless of your intentions. While good results don’t excuse evil actions, bad results are still bad results regardless of your intentions. Its ok to try even if there are risks, but one should always consider if the risks outweigh the results. And sometimes even if everything goes according to plan, it might still cause things to happen you end up regretting and it would have been better for everyone if you had thought it more.

That is what i wish people thought more instead of limiting themselves to just political things and easy terms. Ultimately it doesn’t matter who is in power but what it causes.

Those are good points. But what i mean by that kind of thinking/system resulting in us killing eachothers is that its what i think to be the “endgame” for it. Ones in power exterminate those who they see undeserving of life, criteria for it keeps changing/rising and eventually last human kills second last human, to generalize a bit. And even if it doesnt result in that, it will result in life that isnt worth living for anyone but those select few that are on top of it, except for the hope of toppling it. Its deadend for humans.

If you think about it logically, there are some core things that are always good. Like considering everyone to be inherently equal. While there are things that muddle even this point, it still wont take away that you should always keep those core principles in mind. Religious teachings have pretty good point about this with “treat others like you want yourself be treated” and “love even your enemys”. That is the only logical way to do things because to do otherwise leads to all of us either just killing each other or making life miserable so we want die.

I had some other thought about this too, but i cant seem to be able to properly put it to words at the moment. But the idea was that we should all try to think about things without ego getting in the way and to never lie to oneself about anything or atleast admit to ourselves when we have to do so. The part i cant seem put to words is the part that ties to the previous thing i said.

entire “left and right” spectrum is quite stupid in my opinion. While it generally points towards what kind of thoughtset someone might have, it doesnt seem very beneficial and has been corrupted quite badly so that term for other side is red flag for the another side and drives people to think you cant have something from both ends.

There should be something else in its place, but i cant come up with anything better on the spot though. Personally i have tried to start thinking it on spectrum of beneficial to humanity as whole vs not beneficial, though with enough mental gymnastics even that could be corrupted to mean awful things

Majority of people just dont care about being spied upon unless it directly affects them somehow, at which point its too late for that person. But others having data on you wont likely directly affect you at the moment so not enough people get burned by it for general attitude to change. Smart people understand that all this can very easily change and prepare by not allowing all of their information be available for questionable people to use. Others make fun of them for this and call them crazy until one day they suddenly aren’t so crazy any more.

still, others will have to pay for it which might reduce how widely its used.

Sometimes i wonder if it could be worth it to invent shit like this and patent it just so no one else cant do it themselves

if they patent this, it could be slightly good thing because it might prevent other companies from doing it
