For some reason it is not mindblowing to me that the Microsoft AI CEO is astronomically out of touch with normal people.

I think it is probably the behavior of Microsoft as a company that makes me feel that way.

Then unionize! Nothing else will stop this.

Yes, here is your Success Beaver

From next month it will start enforcing facial age estimation to allow children to chat with strangers only if they are in their broad age group.

This is going to backfire spectacularly, what idiots.

These people control the world and yet they cannot see the basic evil in hurting children.

No, your Animorph powers just have a wandering idle go to a Morphoidmechanic and get your regulator replaced. Come on Dad, get with the times, everybody knows this stuff.

You only think you know about it.

Did you not read the “How Not To Give Away You Are A Lizard To The Humans” pamphlet?

Yeah, it is a bit more fatiguing on your ears but not inherently more dangerous to them, what is important is to listen to your body and don’t push it too long for too loud. Your ears need breaks! It is weird but true. Damage doesn’t come from headphones, it comes from not paying attention to your body and not giving your ears the breaks they need.

What I would say is if you are turning up music on your headphones to drown out something else that is loud, that is when you are much more likely to hurt your ears without realizing. Try to get noise cancelling headphones if you find yourself doing that.

Fuck Google

:( Yeah well I don’t know anything about the developer but I imagine Google announcing they were going to fully enshittify Android by locking down probably took a lot of wind out of their sails even if the decision is being walked back, it shows the longterm intent of the people managing Android and it is actively hostile to developers who make things like Syncthing that threaten Google’s control.

It has been glorious watching Microsoft do this, they deserve this dead end and much worse honestly.

I mean… I don’t know I guess it gives me hope how incompetent the people at the top of Microsoft truly seem to be?

Me too!

Love cool ideas not companies and the CEOs that figurehead them!

Find the answer on reddit, post here in another form. Rinse repeat.

What are the ideologies of the people that own Reddit, X, etc… and who are they willing to hurt for it?

That is really the heart of the question here.

Throw the cameras in jail!

I wonder if this is a “Star Trek is a conservative show” sort of thing. Like he’s genuinely not smart enough to actually understand what is right in front of him.

That is exactly what this is, conservatives pride themselves on having a toddler’s sense of media literacy, especially the men.

It is a reoccuring pattern enough that I have seen multiple video essays on the general topic that try to unpack the different reasons because it is so confounding from the perspective of being a normal well adjusted adult.

I think it is a part of the same core thing as conservative humor being embarassingly bad, formulaic, weirdly cruel to specific groups and just plain not funny almost as a rule.
