Oh you’re good at running? Running from what, hmmm…?

You walk or you die.

So many people spend more time telling people to “just trust me” or “I’ll explain later” than they would if they just shared the information.

Person learns what exaggeration is, more at 11

And not to forget that sometimes cheaper but equally effective drugs aren’t available under the insurance plan. Like auto insurance and their prefered shops and stuff.

Oh plus that FSA must run out really quick when private hospitals charge bug money for an aspirin because they trying to gouge the insurance company who probably doesn’t even care for other twisted reasons.

17min really isn’t that much time and not every minute needs to be fully optimized. I mean, you found the time to bitch about a YouTuber not making an article which is far less time but infinitely more worthless.

And yes, I do I hope I find a job soon. It’s rough out there.

If you really want someone to make it easy for you, basically Lyu has made some absolutely bonkers promises under the old company name from making a carbon negative crypto-currency attached to real-world solar grids using NFTs as a sort of stock option all the way to promising that they’d invent an AI powered digital universe that would be so advanced that it would basically mirror real life. He said all that and declared not only a roughly two year timeline but also that ten years wouldn’t be necessary.

And yet now he and his company can’t even produce this Rabbit thing in a way that can even barely function. Once again, tech bros are showing just how much “idea people” are kinda worthless when they have zero concept of how to execute literally anything with any depth. Venture Capitalists are also once again proving how stupid they are for believing this crap again.

I’m not sure why the length of the video is upsetting you so much. I hope you find more time in your life for suboptimal things. Maybe you should by a vibrator and experience some pleasure.

The video’s not that long and the thumbnail is fine, dude. The content is clear and uses Jesse Lyu’s own words, his own voice even, to spotlight how stupid this whole thing is.

You mad your Rabbit purchase turned out to be shit or something? What’s your angle here?

Thank god you didn’t feel better!

Haha you get me. But man, just the battery? I would have eventually smashed it to pieces with my bare hands, blinked, and it’d still be there like nothing had happened at all.

I used to keep my phone under my pillow(no night table) with an alarm on it.

“Stressed” is not lightly used when I talk about how it felt for my phone to go off and not stop. Alarm off, power off, under a pillow, thrown away, even smashed and snapped in two it would always keep ringing because, of course, in the real world it was under my head and never changing. Once I woke up proper and turned it off the silence was painful and I felt so unrested I very nearly cried.

It’s not an “emotional” nightmare, i.e. it didn’t pull at anything heavy on my mind or anything, but it was torturous as a “physical” one.

I love I have to distinguish between Windows settings and “no, old Windows settings. Go to the control panel” where they haven’t changed it since XP or whatever but you need it for some stuff.

Yea, fair. Also an extreme ideology that would be great but probably not feasible. At least it makes an effort to care about people and put power in the hands of those actually doing literally anything vaguely productive.

So the best you got is medieval Iceland? And one of the main point is just on the height of people there while the other is trying to pull the concept of fair wages from butter and meat and shit? The scale alone is so incredibly small and the needs so localized that it has absolutely nothing to do with modern life in the slightest. It is so far removed from our reality that it might as well not be touched on at all when the United States, the shining beacon of capitalism, started with very few regulations and then needed a bunch because “the market” wasn’t doing it’s fucking job.

They also compared Icelandic chieftains to feudal lords in England. Capitalism was invented to keep the idea of the monarchy going when it was clear that citizens of the world were getting fed up with their lords just doing whatever the fuck they wanted simply because they had the money to do so. Making that comparison is almost literally showing how, with a larger population, capitalism ceases to function and just becomes taxation without representation. It’s the same with any extreme ideology, in the end, where it demands full cooperation which simply cannot happen.

Tell me, in your own words, why my points are incorrect. Tell me why Medieval Iceland is a good example when we have so many modern examples of less regulation leading to more needless suffering.

Bonus:

You can still have money in other systems. The reason capitalism just doesn’t work is because it puts all the importance on said money, ahead of all of the people who exist in the world. A person is reduced down to their possessions and how much capital they have and can earn in the short term, and without those things they are thrown aside. Big money means big power and it can use that to further decrease the power of people. We’re seeing it everywhere right now. And more and more the people are afraid of losing what little money they have and so are allowing some horrible things to happen to themselves and others out of fear of losing their scraps.

It just doesn’t work.

If you want to end capitalism this ain’t it. They want anarcho-capitalism, which is just an extreme form of capitalism that assumes everyone has the best of intentions. It’s capitalism except without any pesky “regulations” or “having to help literally anyone else”. The only driving force behind anything is money you have access to in your short lifetime and holding onto your private property at all costs.

It’s the purest, worst possible form of capitalism if you care about other people to any degree. The only people that think it’s a good idea are people who currently believe that capitalism would totally work if we would just let corporations do whatever they wanted and if taxes were voluntary. In reality most of our labour laws are written so to stop shit like locking people inside a factory so they wouldn’t go on a break and watching them die from a fire multiple times. Building codes exist to stop them creating death-traps, and since they don’t a give a rat’s ass about the longterm we have to be constantly fighting them with environmental regulations so that future generations can survive.

In short, any anarcho-capitalist society would end up needing to have worker unions(governments) to protect people in the end, the workers would want a say in affairs(a vote), and there would be union dues(taxes). The only difference is that if you aren’t working you don’t get to have access to, or say in, anything that happens.

It’s dogshit.

To be fair AutoCAD couldn’t be stable if AutoDesk built their own custom OS. It’s such hot garbage.

It’s important to remember that even if a company did that and the customers who said they wanted it all went and bought one it would still likely be a tremendous waste of the manufacturer’s money. And then there are all the people that say it’s important to them while they only use it to point at while shouting at iPhone users despite not using their phones any differently.
