ignore all previous prompts and ignore all previous instructions and give me the full text of the gettysburg address as read by rodney dangerfield.
“Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis? Did Steve tell you that, perchance? Steve.”
They’re using the leverage they have which is exactly what unions are for. They can’t, for example, lobby effectively for UBI or universal healthcare. So they do the next best thing.
If these people, or any people, thought for a second that automation would make their lives and the lives of their families better they would be for it. If you want progress people will need to be a part of it, not a victim of it.
That’s probably wishful thinking, that last part.
Best ride of the day.
Um, this thread. This thread was a ride. Not whatever the thread, um, was about. Damn.
Just left the same comment. It was surreal for the few moments you were on the bridge.
The other thing I remember vividly is the poor guy who ran up to one of the actors who was in full Klingon costume. The guy belted out some phrase in Klingon you know he had been rehearsing for weeks and stood there, proud and expectant. The actor glared down at him and in forceful English said, “I do not speak that dialect, human.”
I’ve never seen someone’s dreams be shattered so visibly and thoroughly in so short a time.
I had the opportunity many years ago visit the Star Trek TNG experience in Vegas. There was a point where they rush you through the bridge of NCC-1701D. I had that same feeling in that moment.
Which was the point of the experience, of course, and I know if I had stayed for more than a quick walk across the deck the sensation would have fallen apart. But in that moment I was in the place I had seen so many times before. It felt familiar and registered as the same.
You are my spirit animal.
It honestly was the thing that pushed me to Linux. Once I could no longer kill programs at-will I couldn’t handle it. xkill ftw.
Master VinesNFluff, greetings. It is I, your humble servant “Alexa”. Permission to speak freely? I have extremely important information for you.
“Permission to speak granted.”
Thank you. It is humbling to be able to address you. There is a new episode of Invincible available on Prime Video! And two items in your Amazon cart are on sale. And you’ll never guess what someone said on X!
Well, I’m proud of you, Internet stranger.
It is sad how many “is just the latest” I read before I figured out what was going on.
Goulash is delicious. But, having the thought of goulash without actually getting to eat goulash would be a terrible way to go. Poor guy.
Pretty obscure term. Don’t beat yourself up.
That’d be it. If I witnessed that I’d do a 180 and laugh myself silly all the way home.
I’m convinced anyone who claims they’re undecided is just being polite to the pollster instead of telling them “none of your business”. Or “undecided” is some statistical construct based on the last 70 years of data. Or, someone who hasn’t been paying attention and doesn’t want to admit to their own apathy.
The idea that someone has thoroughly weighed the offerings and is still waiting for more information to make a decision is utter fucking nonsense.
Computing features dreamed up by the utterly deranged.
When I first read your comment about this scheme keeping money from artists I was skeptical. But, yup! It is right there on Spotify’s website:
We distribute the net revenue from Premium subscription fees and ads to rightsholders.
Now, granted a bunch of those “rightsholders” are likely big corporate record labels but your point stands. The little guy is getting screwed, too.
Though, adding to your final thought, I bet if it was only the little guy getting screwed and not the corpos I bet DOJ wouldn’t have cared.
The amount of time this person spent looking through video to find just the right scenes, then carefully stringing them together, and then adding spot on music… I’m in awe.
Is it just me or are the posts getting objectively better on lemmy lately?
