I've kinda seen this in manufacturing for the last few years. Not explicitly "AI" but newer equipment designed around being smarter and not requiring skilled operators. Think like WordPress but for industrial machines; it might do basic stuff pretty well but fails at complex operations, and it's an atrocity if you ever look behind the scenes to do some troubleshooting.

hyper-exaggerated, racist caricatures of 19th century Americans.

It's literally impossible to exaggerate the racism of 19th century Americans.

This was a big deal for us because my dad had just bought a "TiVo" like a month before, so we could watch and replay this in real time like some magic space wizards.

The things is, Dems could have given us a single payer system but they specifically chose not to. They could have completely removed the risk of losing healthcare for everyone but they chose not to.

Poor guy didn't realize the mall ninja store was replaced with an Adam and Eve until he was half way home with the whip and handcuffs.

It's the tactical box cutter and whip that makes this illegal. Take those out and add in 4 more guns and everything would be fine.

This is informally already a thing. Most lenders largely ignore medical debt so they can lend more and take in those sweet interest payments.

I'll always drop the exception that it's potentially worth voting in local politics, particularly in small remote communities. These vary in frequency and often don't always overlap the major elections and are largely ignored.

City and county positions can have a real tangible impact on your daily life and the amount of votes to swing these elections can be really small in a lot of America. It's still an uphill battle against landlords and small business tyrants, but it's something real local organizing can overcome.

This one made more sense in my brain

This actually hits pretty good for me, having lived in rural religious hellhole america most of my life. Had to learn pretty early on how to regulate my vocabulary to keep many of my peers from going red and fuming.

In my area they just finished a bunch of low income duplexes in a utilitarian metal building style. Not necessarily a bunch of pushback, but there's loads of negativity over the look and style; purely superficial shit.

I find it funny because those low income metal buildings are gonna outlast the quarter to half a million dollar groverhaus communities that are popping up everywhere here.

Probably One Piece with my wife since she got into it a few weeks ago.

One of mine absolutely loves to shover her head down shoes. Sometimes she gets a little stuck and it sounds like a one legged man is hopping around my kitchen at 3am.

It doesn't count when you're the Good Guys.

I'm wondering if there's limits on this and if it goes both ways. Could I spoof battery data and tell Uber I have 1000% battery to get a super cheap ride.

Definitely a stable economy. Not just propped up on heaps of debt on debt on debt.

Don't think about any of that and just buy some pizza with theoretical money.

I'm pretty sure the owners of sawstop agreed to release the patent if this regulation passes. The issue is the actual components involved increase the cost of a saw, completely eliminating cheap options.

Not getting to work on time if the battery starts burning and the doors automatically lock you inside.

The steel and aluminum tariffs are insane. We got rid of most of the American forges for Chinese imports, there's no other option.

My kid ended up on this weird end of the YouTube algorithm.

Stories with AI generated cat pictures, and then uncanny valley buff Jesus videos. Oddly enough, buff AI Jesus is way better than nearly all other "Christian" content. Literally just "love Jesus and be good, not evil"

It's worth noting that while you can't touch the workers, they're allowed to make quite a lot of contact with you. This leads to guys throwing money at pretty ladies in hopes of some mild foreplay.
