They aren’t going to provide for people’s basic needs after the robots take their jobs. They’re going to keep the excess productivity for themselves. Just as they’ve always done. The only way that changes is by force, and by the time people get desperate enough for that they’ll have an army of robots at their disposal. We need to tackle that capitalist problem before we get to the point automation taking all the jobs.

Elon’s bullshit isn’t going to be that point though.

When your phone’s battery health falls to around 80%, a battery replacement is recommended.

Yeah, just get right on that, it’s basically a trivial process.

Okay, but can we execute these people for putting this concept into the world anyway?

Being able to see their faces increases accountability.

Who’s bewildered? Of course this was going to happen. Everything enjoyable about life is being ruined. It’s not surprising at all.

It’s a texture thing. I don’t like when foods are like that.

They refuse to be held accountable or hold each other accountable across the board. They deserve nothing but to do their fucking job exactly as the public who they serve wills it. If they don’t like it they can quit. They have abused any and every bit of latitude they’ve been given since the inception of police forces. They don’t need masks, they don’t need privacy while they’re working. Any who want to hide should be fired immediately. If they don’t have enough integrity to stand behind their actions they’re in the wrong line of work.

They can turn off body cams, or refuse to answer questions of bystanders, or hide their badge numbers. They do it all the time. If they aren’t allowed to wear masks at least people will have their faces to go off.

You’d think the ad buyers would be trying to sell products or services though. Not only get their ads in front of eyeballs but eyeballs that will buy their shit. Almost every ad I see is completely irrelevant to me.

Sure, I just don’t think that’s a reasonable thing to require at all times.

It is. There’s literally no reason they ever need to be masked.

Neither do. Police only need to be identifiable when using their authority, such as when making an arrest or dealing with protests, and in the latter case, only agency affiliation is necessary.

Disagree. Police serve the public. If they are working they should all be identifiable so they can’t step out of line. Especially during protests. Otherwise we end up with priest getting shot in the eyes with pepper rounds.

No, but I wouldn’t be opposed with any of them but one. That one can go fuck herself.

The other context is food. Like, if I’m hungry and I see an ad for food, it always looks like it’d hit the spot even if I know it wouldn’t.

The exception for me is pizza. When they show it pulling apart with the cheese being stringy. I fucking hate that. It grosses me out.

How about use it to just find a single goddamned product that I’d actually be interested in buying to show me? Half the time I explicitly enter what I’m looking for into a search field what I want still isn’t the top of the results. Cunts.

Witnesses who are too far away to see their identification can still see their face to ID them. Undercover cops are a different situation than what ICE is doing and really shouldn’t be making arrests IMO. In winter they can take their mask off to interact with people.

If we ban law enforcement from wearing masks, that opens the door to banning masks in public.

It doesn’t. The general public doesn’t need to be identifiable at all times like cops do.

No, they are law enforcement and should be readily identifiable the community they serve. Including their face. Also being masked makes it harder for the people they’re interacting with to understand what they’re saying. They lose all the non-verbal communication that comes from the face. Them being masked has absolutely zero upside to the public.

If you’re on Windows Fusion360 is what I’ve used for years and it’s been good. There’s plenty of tutorials on YouTube for learning how to do things. I’m trying to learn FreeCad so I can get off windows and not be subject to the inevitable enshittification of Fusion360 but it has been rough going and I haven’t gotten far with it. I’m having to look up things that just worked in Fusion even though the interface appears to be similar. If you’re just starting out you may not have those issues but as it stands, if I needed to make something immediately I’d go with Fusion360.

My housemates constantly leave their dishes on the table.

I’d almost prefer that. At least it’d be out of the way so I can wash mine. I don’t care if they eat what I do or not. I just want to not have to deal with their shit being in the way all the time when I need to use the kitchen.

I never had this problem when I lived alone but now it’s a daily issue having my housemates leaving their shit from the night before in there. Living with other people is hell.

Minecraft

I would be farming and building shit to automate my life as much as possible.

I’ve been using computers longer than that and when I started I had to type commands into DOS to play games. It was never scary. My dad showed me how to do it and wrote down the commands for me and I took it from there.
