you can make quieter drones, especially as the technology gets properly deployed like this and more research goes into it. Plus i’m sure they could come up with better routes that have it fly over areas where the noise affects people less, like fly it in an arc instead of having it hover a set distance from the ground.

local AI models are a thing you know, just run this on a computer with no internet access and you’ll swiftly see whether it relies on servers or not.

these aliens sure are advanced, they even replicate our technology to blend in!

this addon has made my search experience so much better

it’s literally just mechanical looms all over again, this shit happens over and over and over and at no point do people learn that this will continue as long as we allow capitalism to persist.

the most fucked up part about this is that it’s not like regular people account for more than a fraction of the AI usage, most of it is just other companies using it to replace workers or just… paying for AI usage instead of fucking paying a stock photo company instead…

i hate corporations i hate corporations i hate corporations

git commit crime

and this is why i get so tired of people saying it’s bad to have a big instance like mastodon.social, like bro do you fucking want the platform to be successful or not? it seems like people just want a small isolated place to circlejerk each other rather than something globally useful.

i hate that i can read this fairly easily

if you say “gow-doat” people will barely even register that you said it differently

but also the logo for the project is a robot so pronouncing it like that word makes sense and means it won’t be confused with the play: ro-bot, go-dot.

i have to wonder if banks actively don’t want us to use them

that was one example of where they are used lol

this is such a nonsense argument, people navigate email just fine despite every single platform sending emails from their own domain.

POLICE, HE RELEASED HIS SOFTWARE FREE FOR ANYONE TO USE, SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT

obviously only people who are capable of inheriting 2 million dollars pull themselves up by their bootstraps deserve a big family

since when are thumbs not considered equal to the other fingers? is this some weird thing in the english language i somehow missed all this time?

frankly it’s difficult to be good parents with one child, humans are not meant to raise even a single kid with only 2 parents. We’re meant to have communities that share the load of raising all the children, we’re not birds for christ’s sake.

but also ironically the stereotypical american dream was only feasible for a short time thanks to the work of unions, which would be decried as horrible communists in modern america, and frankly the whole concept has a lot of socialist undertones in general which people love to ignore.

It was thanks to strong union movements that people had such wealth, ever since the unions got beaten into a pulp workers have been paid less and less and at this point the idea of one dude supporting a spouse and 3 kids is fucking hilarious.

yeah idk why society views polyamory as a fetish, it’s really strange
