Okay so…in the rare event I need to rent a car, any suggestions on who to use that isn’t Hertz and sister companies?

lol, wow, I can barely get through on the easiest mode. props to you.

I don’t understand this fully, from a profiteering gluttons standpoint, why wouldn’t they want to process anything and everything and make all the money they can?

As stated, I’ve tried rallying in my area and nobody seems interested. I’m also at a disadvantage if I just go at it alone because I’m not white.

Thank you for the information. I just hope it leads to action. Poll results to me are just someone standing around waving a sign.

These fascists didn’t rise to power by following all the rules, and they won’t exit or lose power by us following the rules. It’s a sad truth.

As a US citizen, prove to me that most Americans don’t want this.

Yeah, I see the protests, even in my Trump-loving town.

But that’s it. People holding signs.

I don’t see aggressive action. I don’t see the necessary violence - yeah I said it.

I’m moving out of the country because everyone I’ve tried to rally says they’re too busy, they don’t have time, they care but they don’t care that much, they think everything will work out, or they believe it isn’t as bad as the news says.

The people I’ve voted for and elected just sit on their hands and do fuck all.

I’m 110% for fighting for and defending what I used to believe in, but not when literally all evidence and signs point to nobody else giving a shit.

Someone call me when you’re ready to legitimately strategize about how to topple this fascist regime.

Absolutely the second. Once something has been destroyed, it takes years or decades to get it back. They’re purposely banking on going overboard, knowing full well it will collapse all the institutions and that repairing that can’t occur at the same pace.

Or target them.

Fuck them all, I hope they get cancer and die a slow, agonizing death.

What are the gains?

Everyone I know with PhDs don’t really get paid more for doing the same job(s) I do.

And some are in research so it’s just a constant stress of continuing to get funding and stuff.

Wow, it’s that bad?

I live in rural Pacific NW and just upgraded to 5gbit symmetric fiber.

That’s funny because everyone I know at AWS recently said there was this big memo or meeting or something and they straight up said demand for some of their services and/or upsells has decreased because of prolific access to AI.

Feel free to message me, maybe I can help. I create web apps and other tools for companies as a career, so the only caveat is that I’m pretty booked right now so my ability to take it on would really depend on the complexity.

Can I create a non-profit that continues this but allows contributors tax deductions?

Frankly, if the government isn’t going to do something they can and should, and I am, then I feel everyone should get a charitable deduction for it because fuck paying taxes to this current admin.

I do work for an AI centric company and we’ve used almost every major model in some way, shape, or form.

Grok was so bad on all fronts that we ceased using it completely.

So I don’t believe this for one second. I don’t even find ChatGPT to be useful for code. I’d probably put Claude first and versions of Gemini second, with no current third.

Fucking lol

Wow that’s some bullshit. They deserve this boycott.

Fuck workday.

Hell, I guarantee there are Lemmy instances running on AWS.

This is why when a supposed ICE agent won’t self-identity and wears a mask and tries to kidnap me, I will absolutely defend myself by any means necessary.
