It took me. 12 minutes of clicking through websites yesterday to get the heat and time settings for making potato chips in the air fryer. I used to be able to just ask the Google Assistant.

I’m glad I saw this post cuz I was going to gaslighting myself over the whole thing. It really is getting way worse, isn’t it…

What search engine alternatives do y’all use?

You are correct, but everyone is too afraid to work together to find a better candidate/ new party. We no longer can organize ourselves. We can only be organized by institutions apparently. I’d love to be proven wrong on this but watch how much resistance you get. Just trying to suggest that maybe we could do better. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

Just my experience, I work in tech as a millennial with some boomers many gen X many millennials and now some Gen Z. From all those people it seems to me the gen Z people are the most proficient with technology.

Why you got some kinda stat that’s gonna blow my mind?

As a younger millennial it surprises me how little others seem to get the generation divide here. Personal computers and keyboards were very common for millennials to grow up with in the house, but I think more and more people these days don’t use desktops or laptops that often most people stick with tablets and smartphones. Gen z probably doesn’t have the same keyboard skills as millennials because of that, but on average they are definitely better with tech than we are. Their typing skills are just on phone keyboards lol. Just my 2 cents

I mean you give enough of a shit to comment twice so 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think a multibillionaire is just a celebrity. The companies he owns and the power he has there aside, he also controls many politicians through lobbying deals.

I feel you on missing the days of the old web so I think you should know it’s tech billionaires like musk who have destroyed it. Whether through their direct control over platforms like Twitter or by how they have regulated the web through lobbying of our politicians.

I think he’s just a hypocrite who will say anything and contradict it when it’s better for him.

Have you ever seen his trans daughter who he disowned for being trans talk about him? He’s not a good dude. For years when I first heard of him I was tricked too. Look into him some more man. He’s a piece of shit.

Here’s some reasons:

Taking credit for other people 's work. I don’t think he actually founded any of the companies he owns besides the boring company. That hasn’t done anything right? Lol

Having emotional temper tantrums where he tries to ruin people’s lives, for example that diver he called a pedophile for no reason.

Again his hypocrisy around his political beliefs. For example how he champions “Free speech” but also will censor words like ‘cis’. It’s clear to me and many others that “free speech” to Elon just means people are free to say what Elon wants.

Stop pretending like your criticism is anything but a defense of the indefensible. You’re a privileged asshole that wants to tone police while people are dying. I don’t care that I hurt your feelings

My loyalty is to the innocent people being massacred in Palestine not your hurt privileged feelings.

You havent derailed my hate at all. I continue to hate genocide and those that defend it. I hope they meet their end with karmic justice 🤷

The guy I just responded to literally opened with “this is hilarious”…

Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about trains.

The dude I responded orginally called people protesting the genocide in Palestine tankies I pointed out that that was f****** weird that is a pro genocide comment I was responding to.

Do you not get that or is this just a bad faith defense?

If your a nazi then fuck you If you’re ignorant look into the genocide

Im not but i get that there is no real argument to call people against genocide tankies so i get why youre tapping out.

Ok but there are no large camps of people at the DNC defending the soviet union… There are people protesting the Palestinian movement. So im pointing out that person oeginally asking of it was maga or tankies is using thr word tankies to belittle people protesting genocide and how gross that is.

Get me?

Yikes back to the third reich with you, genocide supporter.

Yeah i hope people who belittle genocide like you have to suffer it. The fact you think genocide is hilarious is why.

Removed by mod

By tankies do you just mean people against the Palestinian protesters… Yikes

I use temu too. I see literally the same products on Amazon and temu regularly. Temu is much cheaper but obviously shipping is longer. But yeah there is alot of overlap. I think it’s too important to remember a lot of the stuff they get sold on Amazon is from small third party sellers who buy cheap goods from China from places like timu or Alibaba or wherever and then warehouse and resell them on Amazon for a huge markup.

I get where y’all are coming from temu does horrible s*** I guess the reason I use it is the same as the other guy said thr price hike in thr us and I don’t think the merchants over here are ethical either. I’m pretty used to being surveilled digitally at this point 🤷

Fuck Adobe.

Welp he’s just gonna wait till let trump be the first to use it. We are still cooked. 🤡🔫
