it’s gamed and rigged. there you go.

They only have to win once, we have to win everytime

I would somewhat disagree with you in that no effort has been made to keep people from being sick. That’s a pretty bold statement.

It’s high time for “bold statements”. I’ve been in both left and right, and they’re the same or atleast I know none of them supports me. This system fosters nothing more than inequality. Failure to regulate unhealthy but profitable materials and ingredients and addiction tactics away. That’s the shit the poor - soon all of us - are able to buy. There’s 20 chemicals in a simple product (they don’t even call it food), sold with a plastic wrap that is gonna go around the world and come back inside our brains. That’s why, just one example.

All this to say if there are advancements using computer technology on this, they’re nowhere to be seen making a difference. So what’s the point…

You can instruct people on healthy living which will extend their life and the quality thereof, but you cannot force them to do so.

As I keep saying poverty is correlated with sickness. Poverty of mind too. The internet didn’t solve this, far from it.

Oh and the number these data centers are going to do to the environment? Why do we need thousands of them? If we look at who’s moving around and what kind of laws world governments are enacting… it’s not gonna be good in a thousand years…

if it weren’t for medical advances, I would probably not be typing these words

I’m happy it worked out for you.

Embarassing it was ever anything besides ‘pervert glasses’

I’m wrong because you say so. Lazy.

Yes Ford. That guy was pretty sweet. When the assembly line was first implemented by him. An innovation that eventually lead to unchecked industrial growth and waste production, greed intensified.

On a surface level. Yes there were many good innovations, or rather many good business opportunities. On one hand the health care is better, on the other hand no effort seems to have been made to prevent people from becoming sick in the first place. It’s a catch I guess.

Anyway those innovations will become annulled when no one will be able to afford it.

No absolutely not everything is on spotify. And Google is not a search engine anyway. We gave them the privilege of their brand becoming a verb and now they’re a corporate surveillance monopoly. We absolutely botched it here. Same with facebook.

We can search to get a quick superficial view written by whoever and now AI vs reading through a book to get a comprehensive view by someone who studied and has a reputation to defend. One doesn’t substitute the other. The internet merely allowed for the lazy masses to pretend they could get away with not reading, which worked just as well because their boss needs his productivity/wages ratio in check.

Really, after all this years of computer technology and the internet, what good came out of it? That it can outweigh the bad.

People are dumber and misinformed. Social media is a cesspit of fakeness and product advertisements. Software improves profitability and takes away jobs. Unparalleled potential for mass surveillance.

They’d sell accounts with other people’s ID? Those will inevitably get leaked. So for example your ID will get leaked and used and you’ll be the one to face the consequences. This is not new at all.

op seems to think that pandemic response is tradition based, rather than science based.

tradition as like in 1919 where people were told to put a rag on the face, ritualistic hand washing etc, and rushed novel vaccines with bacteria. Everyone died anyway.

Yeah I picked up the history book

They turned authoritarian without batting an eye. Worldwide. That’s what they really showed themselves to be. Cancelled freedom and privacy, destroyed local business and handicapped the developing children of that time. And will continue to do these things.

And yes it was unnecessary. I know you want to read into this and say I was against “a pandemic response”, but not “that” pandemic response…

Seem it’s people calling it full blown ‘Nazi’ (?) - even to people trying to figure this out - and that’s that.

far away from you

So they used medieval techniques got it.

Well they didn’t, but concerning your teensy little pee brain of yours, could as well have.

I know they did the same in 1919, that’s barely 20th century. And an entire century of medical progress early.

Not even wikipedia says what fucking side is on and I’m somehow… whatever I’m going to leave you and your shitty opinions.

This is why I don’t like any people and none of their parties.

Years of uncompromised world class service. Then a person there has the audacity of having a political view (shocking!)

Now they suck and should be boycotted. This is how ingrate you look, we were lucky we even had mullvad in the first place.

chill. I’m definitely taking your word for it /s. If everything I don’t agree with is fascism, well that makes it easy huh?

For sure. Reddit doesn’t start “testing” it just for sport.

Where have I seen such worldwide concerted action among all governments and corporations. Ah yes, when China “leaked” a virus.

Did they save lives?

or

Did they put us in house arrest?

How do they work? Those tools actually delete system apps?

Regarding strictly cpu/power consumption ratio I guess the mac mini is pretty good.
