  • because media is heavily invested in Trump winning. Thats why they are obsessing over every single perceived misstep and mistake Biden makes and giving an almost free pass to Trumps bullshit in comparison. Thats why you’ve not heard about what an absolute failure that moderator was, about any and all of the lies Trump said during the debate, or anything. all you hear is “BIDEN OLD, BIDEN QUIT!”

    Why?

    Because the broadcast Media wants another Trump presidency. He drove massive viewership increases as everyone turned into the news every day to see what the latest fuckup, calamity, and embarassment he had done that day. I’d wager that there havent been as many eyes tuned into broadcast media during the Trump Presidency since 9/11. and they want that attention and viewership (and, most importantly, revenue from advertising) back more than anything.

    its also why theres been bare minimal coverage, and often when it is covered, no credit is actually given, to all the improvements that have been made under biden. Biden has a huge list of wins, and no one knows about them.








  • I hate how obsessed AI has made me with hands and feet. cause that used to be how you noticed AI pics (still is, to a degree, but they are sadly getting better at not creating abomination limbs), they always fucked up the hands and feet.

    and now I find my eyes immediately drawn to hands and feet of any picture, even in real life, cause this stupid bullshit has trained my eyes to scan for weird digital hallucinatory biology.

    and I can not begin to express in human language how much I hate it now that i’ve noticed it









  • Authorative drive is what makes software more inclusive. It can focus the resources and attention where its needed, to create a superior product. Linus being a bulldog with the Kernel is proof enough with that.

    Design by commitee does not make things more inclusive. It just leads to people not getting their way, having a huff, and screaming “I’M GOING TO FORK THIS AND GO MAKE MY OWN VERSION, WITH BLACKJACK, AND HOOKERS!”, and now you have two teams doing the same thing, and being lesser due to the split dev time and attention. and will probably lead to more forks, and more splits of teams.

    Doesnt mean it has to be monolithic/monoculture. but a single product that serves 80% of everyones wants and desires is a better, superior product to one that tries to cater to and serve 100% to each, different individual.

    and most people wont even notice the 20% difference in their everyday usage and life. They just get told something, or get a wrong idea, and are hard pressed to give it up cause humans can rarely admit their own wrong.
