Mario Brothers strikes again

Yeah exactly. There’s zero chance that artist bought a new Tesla just to wreck it lol

From Texas. They’re not going to attract the best and brightest down there.

Yeah, I’m discouraged to even buy American because Trump and the Republicans have basically turned that into a nationalist policy. I used to love buying American and local, but it feels gross to think that I’m supporting their agenda.

If this were the 1930s, Musk would be blaming Poland for not submitting to the Nazis in the same way.

Please do it. The most impacted will be the business owners, companies, and country folk that grind through cars the quickest. I have to drive, but I’m set up to go a very long time before I need a “new” car.

This is the way. I wish more people would accept what is quite literally only minor inconvenience in the name of starving these insane companies. We honestly have it so good in most of modern society, and some things are just totally optional imo.

Thanks

As an American, I also plan to buy as little American as I possibly can for the next 4 years. Corporate greed and bribery is what won the election, after all.

I care because it’s dumb and petty, and I refuse to let dumb petty things get an easy pass.

Or just stop being racist and an asshole altogether?

One person suggests not hiring people based on the color of their skin. Another person argues that this person does not show any signs of racism. What’s even going on anymore?

I had a similar argument the other day somewhere else. People seem to think you can’t be racist against white people, and argue that it’s not racism when they discriminate specifically upon the color of white people’s skin. Lemmy/Reddit/Social Media goes bonkers when you tell them that you can be racist against anybody regardless of skin color, as is the literal definition of racism. And they wonder why nobody takes them seriously on the opposing side of the political spectrum, when people in their own clique think they’re dumb as hell.

The way to go about this is to just download Linux Mint and begin using it. No additional overthinking is necessary. You’ll be able to get Steam working pretty easy, if that’s your thing. Internet bowsers and a word processor are already installed and working out of the box.

Because politics is a game where there are necessarily winners and losers, apparently. You’re petty and gross.

This person may have voted in the latest election. Did you? Hahaha

It’s been years, and I still haven’t recovered from the ending of Outer Wilds. I don’t think I ever want to either, haha

I think the difference is that blacksmiths created things that were tangibly useful, that people needed, and that they needed in large quantities quickly and cheaply. The whole point of art is that it does not have real-world usefulness, past the enjoyment of it for the sake of the enjoyment of it.

For example, people frequently refer to cars as “art”, because they are beautiful, but “beauty” isn’t necessarily the same as “art”. Cars are beautiful because they invoke the principles of art, whatever they may be. The base principles themselves are complex and intangible, and you’d be hard-presses to find a book that explained what art actually is, because it is not well defined.

Only people can do art, as far as we know. AI can only produce things that resemble art, and they have only been able to do so by copying what real people have done. If real artists stop outputting material, there will never be an original artistic expression created ever again.

AI may be able to generate clip art and pretty text, but nobody is going to flock to the theaters, or attend auctions to acquire what is basically clip art.

This is not at all like creating a metal blade, imo. The tech bros just don’t understand art.

Absolutely disgusting

What about the stock market? Are people with 401ks parasites?

We’re probably going to be seeing articles like this coming from the US in a few years. Probably.

Take notes
