  • Most people don’t need AWD. Most people who think they need it are wrong, and they could easily live without it. I say this having lived in several snowy places, including rural mountains, owning cars with and without AWD.

    Regardless of AWD, if you buy an SUV, don’t think that you can ignore the weather. It’s very common for SUV drivers to believe that their car is suitable for the snowstorm, drive at high speeds, and get stuck in the ditch. Please don’t be that guy.


  • I like how you mixed a few notions together in a way specifically designed to induce chaos.

    Even assuming that AI can take away jobs, which is itself I think inaccurate, and provably so, that has nothing to do with people lacking money. In an ideal world, we could use technology to improve productivity so that we would need to work less.

    So then what you are actually asking is a different question. What you’re actually asking is, what happens if we create an economic system that takes away most money from most of the people, to much larger degree than is currently happening. And for that, all you need to do is go look at the history books.

    Finally, your question as posed is partly self-contradictory. You’re talking about AI being competent enough so that it can fire everyone, but improvements in technology are not always monetized. They can also lead to extreme cost savings. If for example, if I don’t have the money to hire an accountant, but I don’t need to because the software package is good enough to handle all of it for me, then there’s no problem to be solved. And this is true for any number of so-called white collar jobs.

    So then what we actually see is that jobs change and evolve over time. The word computer used to talk about a person who did arithmetic and other such operations. Now it’s used to refer to the machine itself.









  • Your choice of language shows that you are in fact “out to get him”. I’m not sure you know what the word gaslighting means, but I won’t blame you for that because it’s kind of a fancy buzzword these days.

    Nobody is saying that people are out to get Biden. People are saying that many mainstream media networks are setting magically low standards for Donald Trump and absurdly high standards for Joe Biden. This is incredibly obvious once you look at a few examples, so people can’t effectively deny it, and instead they try to deflect. That’s what you tried to do, and it’s not working.

    Remember that Trump was convicted of over 30 felonies. That’s pretty bad, but it’s even worse because he committed those felonies to cover up the fact that he was sleeping around because he knew that if people found out, he would have lost the election. In other words, he broke the law to win the presidency, he succeeded, and nobody should ever forgive him. Any responsible newspaper should be reiterating this fact anytime they write a political article about him.

    But that’s not the worst thing he’s done. We have clear proof from the defamation case that he committed sexual assault, and sadly he couldn’t be convicted of that because of the statute of limitations, but there’s no doubt that he did it. This again should be brought up anytime a responsible newspaper wants to write an article about his presidential run.

    I could go on and on, but it’s not necessary. If you look at the above two examples, you see that the man has no moral integrity. He’s a terrible human being, he does terrible things to other human beings, and he’s going to keep doing that until the day he dies. We all know it, and every journalist with a conscience has a duty to point it out whenever they report on him.

    But they don’t. They ignore it. Instead they write about how Biden looks old and sometimes gives incoherent answers. Instead they say that Biden should withdraw from the race. And that, my friend, is the problem.
