Teppichbrand , to Technology in I watched Nvidia's Computex 2024 keynote and it made my blood run cold

You misunderstood me. I have nothing against progress. Medical progress is great! But what is often sold to us as innovation is not progress but just more nonsense that only pretends to get us further.

Exactly, innovations no longer help to satisfy real basic needs, they are used to create new, artificial needs. Always new toys that make us feel like we're making progress.

Innovation is a scam, it breeds endless bullshit we keep buying and talking about like 10 year olds with their latest gimmick.
Look, they replaced this button with A TOUCHSCREEN!
Look! This artficial face has PORES NOW!
LOOK! This coffee machine costs 2000$ now and uses PROPRIATARY SUPEREXPENSIVE CAPSULES!!
We need progress, which is harder to do because it takes a paradigm shift on an Individual and social level. It's much less gadgety.

Agreed! So let's stop wasting time and energy (get it?) by fantasizing about a nuclear future and push renewables. There is no alternative anymore, let it go.

Nuclear fanboys are strange! The won't let it go.

Teppichbrand , to Technology in Massive explosion rocks SpaceX Texas facility, Starship engine in flames

I ordered my horse out of the stable. The servant didn't understand me. I went into the stable myself, saddled my horse and mounted it. I heard a trumpet blowing in the distance and asked him what it meant. He knew nothing and had heard nothing. He stopped me at the gate and asked: "Where is the Lord riding to?" "I don't know," I said, "just away from here, just away from here. Always away from here, that's the only way I can reach my destination." "So you know your destination," he asked. "Yes," I replied, "I told you: 'Away from here' - that's my goal."

Read it! Simply skip chapters you don't like. Watch this speech after you finished the book.

Teppichbrand , (edited ) to Memes in 2024 is going to be the beginning of the end of us all

This is really bad advice, you sound like a 15 y/o.

Someone shared THIS LINK a couple of weeks ago and it hit me hard. Keep swiping.
I haven't bought anything off of Amazon for a decade, I get most stuff used, refurbished or not at all.

Teppichbrand , to Memes in See?? I'm supporting togetherness

Those lame jokes make me wanna mention the Vegan Bullshit Bingo.
