I can’t say I knew, but it doesn’t surprise me. The AI folk, among others, want to spy on us as much as possible, but they also know that if they opnly target the kids, they’ll get destroyed by lawmakers and courts and public opinion, so they need to pretend that they’re only fucking over adults.
If you’re trying to ask whether LibreOffice is dead then I think the answer is no. Because right now, even with minimal updates for small bug fixes or security or what not it does what a lot of people need it to do.
What I look for from that office suite today is very similar to what I wanted from it a decade ago and probably a decade from now it will also be filling a very similar role. So of course it’s good to modernize and continue to make improvements, but at the same time a lot of the things that humans want to do on our computers for work and hobbies are largely the same as what they were in decades past. So if we have something that’s stable then we win.
What you say is true but it’s off topic because that’s not the current situation. What we’re actually seeing right now is that parents literally do not want to take their devices away from their kids and they don’t want to supervise their kids. It really is that simple.
This is not a situation where most parents are trying to do the right thing and they can’t do enough and they need an extra hand. This is definitely a situation where many parents aren’t even putting in a good effort.
You know like what if they didn’t give their kid a cell phone. What if they took the cell phone away at 9:00 p.m. Most parents would never dream of doing either of those things.
Right, but the politicians didn’t sell the law at 30% efficiency. They sold it at something like 95% efficiency. So they lied and they haven’t solved anything.
Maybe they could have used all of that money to run campaigns to help convince parents to properly supervise their children. Maybe that would have done more than this 30% figure.
But that’s nonsense. If the bills sponsors had been honest about the fact that it would fail for the majority of children, then it would have never passed in the first place. They lied to push it through and now you’re painting a rosy picture around a complete failure.
Or maybe it’s never going to work because you can’t enforce it properly because the parents don’t want it to be enforced. And the damage you’re talking about is not backed up by as good science as you think it would be if you were going to pass a law such as this.
But many people are of the mindset that oh my God. Oh my God we have to do something and this is something and therefore it’s better than nothing, and they’re wrong. If you don’t have a good plan, that doesn’t make your bad plan reasonable.
Well actually the party is composed of many different people, a variety of backgrounds, and many of them don’t want a Joe Rogan of the left because they know that it’s just b*******. But it’s a cute idea to pretend that they do.
You have to keep in the front of your mind the fact that he’s a strong narcissist. Things like truth and reality don’t matter, and the only thing that’s kind of true to him is whatever he believes, and that’s what he believes right now, and that’s that he’s the best, and everyone loves him except for crazy people.
So in answer to your question, no, he is not trying to lose because in his brain he isn’t losing and he couldn’t possibly lose.
