Bro. You can’t sign a petition on change.org.

Just move on with your life.

I would guess not. Any authentication scheme would just be another risk point to not be able to talk to the thing from earth.

But I’m just guessing.

I would doubt they would have encrypted anything on the probe back in 1977 when it launched.

Yeah but I hate yt music for different reasons haha

Can I upload my own music like I could with Google music?

Humankind could have been living in blissful peace for centuries.

Nah. This is a unique moment in history - access to objective truth has never been so widespread. In theory, it’s a lot easier to lead people to war if you can convince them that their neighbors’ customs and culture are causing your crops to fail or some shit.

But it turns out that people simply prefer to reject objective truth. So they’ll blame gays for hurricanes and tell people that homelessness is punishment for sin.

Everything is definitely shittier now.

100 years ago there were more things that just happened to us that we couldn’t do anything about. It’s hard to eradicate a virus when you don’t even know what a virus is.

Nowadays we are plagued with completely solvable problems. We could eliminate measles, but dumbasses are afraid of vaccines. We could feed everyone, but we got billionaires to maintain. We could stop destroying the earth, but then who will burn all this oil? We could cooperate on a global scale, but then we might have to talk to brown people, ew. We could stop bombing each other, but then how would we prove to our gods that we’re good people?

So yeah “things” are shittier, because nowadays we have the ability to live in a nearly post-scarcity society but we just don’t wanna.

All right smart guy, explain to me how else I’d know if I’m out of ketchup if I can’t use an app to access the remote camera in my fridge? Can’t do it can ya? Yeah that’s what I thought

Rocksteady took the game entirely offline to fix a devastating bug that would lead to new players receiving 100% completion of the entire game without having done anything.

LOL

So people who want to just play a game casually will get their asses handed to them by people who are artificially enhanced. Cool.

Yeah but it’s trash haha

Love these books. I got my daughter hooked on them too.

Always thought they’d make a great tv series. Preferably a cartoon though.

I don’t mind in-game ads printed on in-map billboards and stuff

Not ten years ago people were complaining about this very thing.

It’s fascinating to watch the boiling frog in basically real time. Give it another 10 years and ads that interrupt gameplay will be seen as normal too.

I moved to the $10 720p plan and haven't noticed the drip in resolution even once.

Wait what's Linux, never heard of it

I always thought if you were “laid off” it was the company’s intention to maybe bring you back someday

Where’d you get that idea? “Laid off” has always been a euphemism for “fired.”

Comical Ali!

We were there 10 years ago and that’s being generous. Phones have been fucking boring for over a decade.

And that should be a good thing because by now you should be able to pick up a great smartphone for a hundred bucks… except that all these phone companies have to keep the money flowing in so they keep inventing shitty gimmicks and charging thousands of dollars for them.

Or they strip out features to make you use their shitty clouds and subscription services.

Or they keep bloating the OS so much that the hardware can’t keep up - but God forbid you want to ignore their shitty update that brings 100 new emojis! They’re gonna force that shit on you whether you like it or not.

Tech industry is a desert of wasted talent nowadays.
