  • I don’t live in Iowa but have a small farm and live surrounded by farmers and ranchers. You have to understand that these people have the tiniest of perspective to the world. They spend almost their entire lives on one property, rarely go anywhere due to the nature of farming, and constantly have right-wing radio on in the truck and the barn and fox news on at home. You combine that with limited education across multiple generations and you have a group of people perfectly suited to consistently buy into propaganda and almost never able to identify things that will eat their face in the end.



  • I work in a K12 school and no school in our state mandates COVID vaccines. While we keep track of any/all vaccinations and report them to the state health department per state law, a parent can also submit exemption paperwork for individual vaccinations to not get them or not report them.

    Whatever brainworm guy says at the federal level doesn’t mean shit because it’s state law. However what it does accomplish is getting dumb fucks riled up with misinformation and propaganda so they frequently call or email schools to harass and threaten school employees. This happens frequently in my school and neighboring schools. It serves as a useful distraction while various government funding streams and programs are cut.



  • This should be corrected to something like: “We thought Facebook and Twitter would unleash economic growth and a new golden age for humanity. It didn’t. Will it be the same for AI? Yes.”

    Too long for a headline but would be a good way to write an article pointing out that the main point will be to have AI write more shitty ads for Facebook and Twitter albeit while you wade through ads between prompts on chatgpt.

    Because like all the others… It isn’t really providing any value… Just low end schlock and garbage… So what are we going to do to make money for execs and shareholders? Oh I know!! Ads!! And subscriptions!!
