Actually more recently I was setting up an older, but still great, canon printer, with a new windows 11 machine. I had to install a driver for windows 7/8/8.1/10 because there is no working windows 11 driver and the 7/8/8.1/10 driver still works. XD

The last time I touched a windows device was to make windows 11 look like windows 10, so the task bar could be moved to the top. edit: typo

It’s 2025 and people are jailbreaking their beds.

You are welcome not to I guess. It wouldn’t be cope though if you directed 3 out of 4 of those at me.

So I was obsessively reading this manga about fish with legs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyo

And the bonus manga with the Steven Universe human sized holes in the sides of mountains. This was before Steven Universe as far as I’m aware.

While my mom was listening to the earlier song OP’s talking about on a loop while working out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UVNT4wvIGY

So the two are linked in my head as if the song was used in a trailer for a movie adaption of the manga. It was a while ago, like summer of 2011, but that’s what popped in my head the second I saw “Somebody I used to know”.

It’s weird how both songs have the same intro but the new one sounds relatable. Oh, after watching the full music video for the new one it seems that the new is clearly a homage to the original:

That’s cool. I’m glad they made it. They even have the people covered in the background art standing against the wall. =D

This is why I’m glad I’m on lemmy and not reddit. And why we should not want to be allowing AI generating messages on this website in lieu of comments and posts from other people.

When the NSFW filter makes it NSFW.

The second one is just boy-moding when I was an egg. And now boy-moding as a mostly openly trans woman. And while it is used to invalidate my woman-hood, it’s not that I can’t publicly express it, it’s all I get to express in public irl anyway.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding what this person is saying. But all attempts with masculinity were me trying to say woman with only the word man. But otherwise a pretty accurate description of the whole, me living as a trans woman, life story, thing.

Let’s start with the boldest claim first — it’s that AI is not just in a bubble, but one 17 times the size of the dot-com bubble, and even four times bigger than the 2008 global real-estate bubble.

It’s okay! I’ll rescue you after my nap.

Have a good one!

Resisting tyranny is how everything good in the world is possible. The way to have lives worth living is to defeat tyrants and their ideologies. We defeated the Nazis but not fascism. Now we have to defeat the ideological descendants of the Nazis.

If we don’t defeat fascism, neoliberalism, and capitalism now the turn around time for the next fascist movement will be measured in years not decades. We have seen as much with the Biden administration. They failed to meaningfully hold Trump and MAGA to account for the insurrection or fundamentally fix the underling systemic issues that they are symptoms of and now we are living under fascist rule.

We don’t have dignified lives or liberal democracies to go back to. The way to get something better is with socialist democracies where workers own corporations and the political process. Until then it’s liberty or death. We benefited from a free democracy. If anyone is to enjoy that again we must resist now and until we are all free.

1973 Chilean coup d’état

I assume you mean 1973.

By flying a plane into the capitol you mean using military planes to fire rockets at the La Moneda Palace.

Trump led an insurrection against the US and was allowed to be president again despite not being eligible to do so.

Grifters excepting cash when it is handed to them is not surprising. The grifter working for the Trump administration is not surprising.

If that’s how people want to spend their days, that’s on them. But they won’t be invited to the next wizard war.

So that’s what happened to them.
