I wonder if this would make it harder for people to find jobs. I imagine companies would be less inclined to hire people an hour away if they had to pay for it.

I don’t think many people would complain about a 10 minute commute. My mom has a 45 minute drive to and from work each day, and works 10 hour days (4 days a week). I would go insane.

What exactly is the point in covering the front of the bikes there? Some of those look dangerously close to getting caught on their tires.

Why not simply go for a Reddit blackout

Well the whole reddit thing was just a bunch of volunteer mods. On the other hand, many YouTubers make a career out of the platform. Considering their livelihoods are at stake, and the vast number of YouTubers you would need to get on board to make google actually care? Organizing such a thing would be anything but simple.

Seriously. I feel like they made a huge mistake with that name lol.

Very true. It’s a shame we haven’t invented any form of transport that can fit a bus load of people inside at once.

Worth noting that cars can fit more people in them than bikes can.

So with that in mind, clearly the true moral of the story is that clown cars are the most efficient method of travel.

Honestly it’s even worse than that when you consider he didn’t just make the rules, he made us. And he did it with perfect foreknowledge of everything that would happen.

So it’s not just “he sacrificed himself to save us from himself”, it’s “he sacrificed himself to save us from what he’s going to do to us because of the way he made us”.

Also as far as the cutting off his foot thing, it’s more like an axolotl cutting off his foot. He’ll have in back and be in perfect condition in just a few days.

Are they a public figure that half the country hates? That probably makes unverifiable testimony a bit less impressive from an evidence standpoint.

(though just to be clear I’m far more inclined to believe them over trump, not trying to defend the dickhead)

What a weird thing to take issue with. Even if you were right, at worst they would’ve made a single typo by missing one space or hyphen. The horror!

But you’re not even right. Monthslong is an actual word.

It’s for this very reason that I’ve always thought it would be easier to just give sports to the conservatives and then try to take that ground back at some point where trans people are more accepted. Don’t let a perfect outcome get in the way of good and all that. But I’m neither trans nor interested in sports, so I realize my opinion here holds little weight and I haven’t thought very deeply about it.

Filters that I’m fairly certain are even on by default.

This is an interesting argument. I don’t think the two are completely analogous, and the whole thing falls apart once you go beyond consumer level usage due to piracy’s inability to make new things like AI can. While piracy isn’t going to get any game developers or musicians fired, AI image gen very likely will. The more it improves, the harder it will be for companies to continue justifying paying real artists.

That said, you do make a good point that many pro-piracy arguments can be used all the same to be pro-AI image gen. At least at the individual consumer level.

I remember a while back, I was too busy for a little while to use Duo and came back to the widget trying to guilt trip me into using it. Because I missed like half a week. It’s so toxic and honestly isn’t even that useful for learning. So I uninstalled that shit immediately.
