Has anyone ever fucked up the political battle following an attempted coup as badly as Biden and Merrick Garland?
"can't give this thing away unless I lower the price to probably $79k. Sucks."
A brand new AWD CT from Tesla is $79,990.
Headline is clickbait. Seller is a whinger. Trash all round. Saved you a click.
The atomization of society. The process of a society breaking down into smaller, isolated units, where individuals are self-interested and self-sufficient. It can lead to a feeling of being alone even when surrounded by people.
Definitely interesting. We had an issue in Australia with 457 visas back in 2014. Where claims of pay were disputed when a whistleblower showed 200 white-collar 457 visa workers, about half of whom were Korean nationals aged under 30, were clocking up more than 84 hours a week.
They were employed by the contractor Samsung C&T at Gina Rinehart's mine and were being paid the equivalent of $16 an hour for what should have been much higher paying jobs.
I'd love to see the stats on this.
There are no grownups left. Only revolutionaries.
You got to love this. The Pentagon just failed its 7th audit in a row. It has a budget of $1tr. And yet the cost savings team decides that penny pinching by making life harder for workers is where the real savings are to be found. Not the giant black hole of finance which is the military industrial complex.
God this sucks to watch from the other side of the world.
Imagine celebrating the idea that you've had no personal growth or made no social progress in twenty years. And not that it needs to be pointed out but it's also bullshit because the right have been marching fast towards fascism.
The cost of digital advertising cannot be justified by its effectiveness (or rather lack there of). We've collectively spent hundreds of billions of dollars creating the infrastructure for invasive hyper targeted ads that do not get better results than simple billboards and terrestrial TV ads even now. We've created a global economy of marketing, media, advertising and sales solely reliant on technofeudalist overlords who've provided very little actual improvement of anything.
Are we supposed to believe the largest most dominant military force in the world, Kublai Kahn's Mongol fleet was defeated by some inclement weather... TWICE?? Lazy writing.
I absolutely don't agree with your perspective.
AI is just another way to ensure control of the means of production stays in the hands of capitalists.
It empowers the techno-feudalist monopolies to put further pressure on more industries. Not content to own a portion of every retail purchase, every digital payment, every house, and every entertainment property. They now get to own a portion of every act of creation, every communication that could possibly challenge their power.
They can subvert any act of independent impactful art by copying it and remanufacturing lesser versions over and over until the original's impact is lost. And they can do it faster than ever before, cashing in on the original creative's effort and syphoning returns away from creators into their own pockets.
You might think it's inevitable and inescapable, but that's what people once thought of the divine right of kings.
