True. One doesn’t have to explain their choice in having children to others anyway.

I don’t think I’d be a good parent so I decided to not have children. I’m in my forties so this is unlikely to change

It just feels strange, to have an opportunity to give a child a better life than most of the people on the globe can, to want children, and to choose against.

The future is bound to suck a lot, so I can understand people who think like that

Harry Potter fandom is horrible too

Having a life is better than not existing in the first place

I guess that anyone that has an opinion in this matter is highly biased

you can still see that number on smarttube

What’s great about it?

the boobs, of course

the archive’s got your back

it’s an economic bubble, it will eventually burst but several grifters will walk out with tons of money while the rest of us will have to endure the impact

that’s it? you asked one question and that was enough for you?

This could work, but it would be extremely wasteful. Instead of one cable serving dozens of cars per day you’d have dozens of cables, one for each car, used only once that same day

so much uncritical wishful thinking and optimism in a single article

Sorry, but if you want linux to be “just like Windows” it will never be good enough. It is different, and of course it takes time and effort to learn.

it’s worthwhile to remember that said rich nations only became rich by heavily exploiting the global south

Could you imagine if the Nazi’s had the amount of data, information, and surveillance capabilities of modern day US?

you can look at today’s Israel and see your question partially answered

I think the worst part of Huang’s keynote wasn’t that none of this mattered, it’s that I don’t think anyone in Huang’s position is really thinking about any of this at all. I hope they’re not, which at least means it’s possible they can be convinced to change course. The alternative is that they do not care, which is a far darker problem for the world.

well yeah… they just don’t care, after all the climate crisis is somebody else’s problem… and what really matters is that the line goes up next quarter, mankind’s future be damned
