Lets be frank, by “Americans” he means him and his chronies. He’s only worried about his not chronies because election is coming up.
As an American, fuck it, let the consequences pile. Many of the people who actively wanted this are hurting the most.
Aren’t most farmers voting for team red?
US here, yes. The Ag industry is heavily Republican and you can tell it by all the handouts they keep getting from them. They’re also a bunch of millionaires who cry the second anything goes sideways then comes out better. The mom & pop farms that people think of are almost nonexistent, especially after the last time the republicans convinced them to do a farmers strike decades ago, which lost a lot of small farms to big corporations.
One of the very rare moments of AI being used completely for good.
I was at the early end of when programming was being pushed thing. Found a welding degree was an option.
Get a welding degree, welders will never go out. The 08 slump happened, and suddenly I was coming out of school requiring 2 years of work experience to get a job, but couldn’t get an entry level job because I was too experienced when the local factory moved to Mexico.
Moral of the story, the industries are not your friend and are happy to fuck you over no matter what you pursue.
In the US I’ve been saying “Libertarian is a Republican who wants to smoke weed.” But seeing as they’re not villianizing it much anymore the Libertarians really don’t have a talking point left in the country.
American here.
DON’T
Remember the stories about how wifi does a good job of telling where people are in the house? They might already be on that way.

This is one of those troubles with the whole “communist” and “capitalist” things. None of them are actually truly what they say they are.
China and USSR started competing hard core on the global scale in the capitalism games, and lets be honest, look at China now and it’s fully on the capitalism train while still calling communist.
But that isn’t to say the US is any better on the capitalism wagon. The US is quite happy to drop capitalism if a company desires it. This is where we get our "too big to fail"s or companies that are given “loans” during the pandemic that they never have to pay back.
It’s almost like the terms are a joke by the upper echelon to fuck with the rest of us.
I’ve also been in construction long enough to know there are faster ways into a house than through the doors if I’m trying to be dishonest.
Only super tangentially unrelated, I had a friend ask if he should get me a lockpick set. I told him I tried to learn, it’s not my thing, it doesn’t make sense in how I feel. He asked what if I needed something open.
“I have a sawsall with a demolition blade. There are very few things I cannot open.”
It’s amazing how many people cheer for corporations. There’s few consistents in the world but a big one is corporations are not your friend.
I don’t work near the tangerine, I can’t stand listening to him, I wish I never had to hear his voice again.
The only I didn’t expect in this was that he was in the room with the Japanese PM. Not even really a surprise, just didn’t know that was happening.
Nah, they’re learning the lesson that they should have learned the first time he was president. He will stab EVERYONE in the back. No one is safe from him backstabbing if he thinks it’ll get him something better.
This is exactly what I was thinking.
Having worked in factories, the coffee in them is usually the strongest and always available, Blue collar lives on the stuff,
I have found a couple times an LLM being good for searches. My example is scooters in the US, because of commute I’d like to find an electric scooter, the kind like a Vespa. But you do a search, you find all sorts about the standing scooters, look for electric motorcycles and they start getting to car level prices or aren’t street legal, it gets to be a mess. Chat GPT turned that search into a relatively quick one that I could find a local place that I’m going to check out when there’s not ice on the ground. But the important part was making it require links. As a tool, it can have its uses.
So all of that said… Google and other searches doing AI did fuck all and nothing to help on this, and I agree 100% I do not want AI on the search for DDG
The trouble with that is the blue states would be the coasts, and the red states down the middle…
Ehhhhhh… I don’t have faith in it. The manufacturing sector has been in the process of getting worse back when I tried to get into it in 08, and finally gave up on actually finding work in the industry and moved to healthcare. I know people who’ve quit welding jobs because they hit the ceiling on pay and it’s still not making living wages here in the midwest.
Yet that’s an industry that has consistently anti-union my entire life. They just buy into the foreigners taking their jobs. I fear the programming sector will drink the same koolaid, just Indians instead of Mexicans.
I agree on the tricking them, but there’s another part I look at. Basic fucking pattern recognition. The jobs have stopped being the in demand for a while now, and they’re not so much on the negotiating power. But the idea of a union is still apparently more anathema and are shocked at these mass layoffs that keep happening.
He thinks he’s Tony Stark, he’s not even a good discount Justin Hammer. And I do mean the movie one.
