Just commenting here to say hi to all of the historians of the future that will be digging through the old internet archives to try and piece together how humanity destroyed itself.
Hey folks, by now most of us could see it coming but felt helpless to stop it.
We've run out of resources to exploit to increase shareholder value, and now we suck the earth dry just to maintain our hunger. So now we're making them up. We know it isn't AI. We know it isn't good. Venture capitalists are the primary source of the buzz words making news. Because we don't have any say in that either.
The American experiment has failed to deliver it's promise, captured now entirely by those with the most to spend.
i wonder what species the historians will be?
Crab of some kind.
It's always crab.
Just commenting to also get a name in that history book.
"Oh yeah. We knew it was coming. We were just waiting to see which one would finally cause it."
