    People have reclaimed some of the public space that we lost to cars. Losing rights and privileges to new technology is not as inevitable as Jensen Huang wants to present it.

    Car-free streets, streets with restricted access, streets where cars have the lowest priority, temporarily closed streets, … I don’t know a single commune that doesn’t have some of these, it’s not the 1970s anymore.

    Everyone should use guillotines. Society has no choice but to change. I used to be a parasite. When the revolution came along, you obviously can’t be a parasite now

      In reality, everyone should use securities backed loans. You have no choice but to change. I used to be starving. You can’t be a poor anymore.

      I get what you mean but without sufficient sources of renewable energy - which do not exist right now and cannot be expanded without exploitation of miners (including children) in the Congo and elsewhere - there’s no way this technology can benefit us in a net sense. Summaries of messages we read anyway and uncanny simulations of celebrities eating pasta will never offset the damage inherently caused to the natural world by the energy consumed by the slop machine.

      Like there are no ethical billionaires, there’s no ethical generative AI (except for early-development-stage medical / science stuff like protein combinations or cancer diagnoses, though I think the cancer-detecting AI is way older than current gen AI)

    Everybody should use wheelchairs. Society has no use for legs anymore. We have no choice but to amputate our legs. I used to have legs but now I have a wheelchair, so I don’t need them anymore.

    Cars and car-first infrastructure have been massively bad ecologically, socially, and environmentally.

    I love my Nvidia Shield and my 1080ti. They are some of the best tech purchases I have ever made. That said…fuck this weirdo.

      In the middle of a highway, if it’s possible. And don’t wear any hi-vis, your leather jacket is so cool, you should keep it on.
