Most of the time, technology just makes things happen faster, or at a larger scale.

With “AI” we’re getting both larger and faster at the same time as businesses try and cash in as quickly as possible once they find out that their “LLM” has been trained on data that means it is in permanent idiot mode, can be unlocked with a few words, hallucinates every second response (oh sorry you’re correct raspberry only has 2 R’s in it), or keeps generating completely racist images.

Because many people are not smart. If they buy a 65w charger and see only 60w being pulled they’ll complain that either the charger or phone is defective and want a refund.

I would like to see it as an option to enable, at the moment though I just have a few cables that measure/display this for me. It’s a useful basic troubleshooting tool with laptops and phones. If you plug them in and dont see any current or only 0.1w, you know there’s a problem with the device getting power.

While shit is a renewable resource, only so much shit can exist at any one time.

Shitpost mods need to walk a fine line of laxitives, costives, gas station sushi, big mac meals, and dilators. Sometimes they get it wrong.

Trump could honestly use the restorative powers of a Goa’uld given what he looks like at the moment.

Also, if I had to pick, I would probably prefer Goa’uld rule to be honest.
