I am not exactly freaking out about AI news because I have endless faith in an online audience’s ability to lose interest. www.garbageday.email/p/happening

Nerds are the ones who warned you about cryptocurrency, and NFTs, and the internet of things. Nerds are the ones trying to explain to you that "AI" is just overhyped pattern recognition which we already had for years. Techbros are not nerds. They're predators.

I think it is funny how I see a lot of money being spent by the people who destroy the planet telling me what I need to do to save the planet. Seriously people. Us plebs didn't fuck up anything. The corps and governments did. They should be fixing it.

Life is too short to hold a grudge, so make sure to have your estate retain someone to hold your grudges for you upon your death.

There are actually a bunch of different ways, you can do it I think via GitHub, or use a website like blueskyfeeds. I'm personally using blueskyfeedcreator.com because the pins messages were a lil better than BSF

First day here. Second skeet. I figured I would follow the recommendations and also the first 300 @linuxfoundation.org followers. Let's see how that plays out.
