i wonder if the government is worsening the unemployment problem on purpose, so they can dismantle welfare systems and replace them with privately ran systems. At least they have made re-educating harder for adults and I dont think unemployement office is getting nearly enough funding as it should. They also made it harder for employers to even get job applications by forcing people to spam them. Though I dont think there is any grand conspiracy to worsen unemployment, there is no need when you can just handle the problem badly instead, as doing bad job doesnt have any consequences. People will vote the same anyway after couple of years.

low effort, low quality, for making money because of it. Might not have either low effort or quality “tag” at times, but then its replaced by being harmful, which can be there with them too. So things like what fastfood companies squeeze out, tiktok content, illegal drugs, temu trash.

So maybe also anything that actively exploits humans in some way for monetary gains (ai exploits and harms creators, fastfood and drugs exploit and harm body, tiktok trash exploits and harms mind, temu trash exploits western economy and harms environment).

so in short, shit that would make world better place with its absence

yes

Ragnarök is quite cool, first there is huge battle between giants, gods and mortals. Then at the end when mostly all noteworthy characters are dead, surtur burns the whole mess down and sun turns black, stars fall and everything falls into boiling sea. And after all that world is reborn and there will be no more evil.

Problem being, does anyone do anything about it being corrupt?

i just dont understand hiring requirements. They make posts that require you to be able to do anything and everything, expect everyone still to apply and hire people that barely are able to do the job and can’t handle learning anything new, likely not even due to some inherent weakness in the head but just attitude. And I bet every one of them praises their skills on learning new stuff on the interview. And then they show the door to anyone who dares not to be really good at lying through their teeth at the interview.

10 had at least SOME good in it, at first i didnt want to move on from 7 but when i finally did it was okay. Everything i have heard about 11 is awful, and i wasnt very pleased with it myself either when i tried it at work, though i was able to mostly ignore it since it was just my work pc.

And now after switching to mint, idea of using 11 is preposterous.

well, ultimately too many lawmakers, elected or not are “let them eat cake” people. Living in their own world, uncaring and unknowing about things they rule over. Too many are likely there for their own hubris, thinking how they are so excellent that they must deserve to be there and maybe to line their own pockets. Though obviously there are some that are genuinely competent, otherwise the whole thing would come crashing down too fast, but they are most likely quite suppressed in favor of the pieces of shit that care only about their own interests.

They COULD have consulted people who know about this, considered extensively if its good idea to do this or not and maybe even explain themselves why its necessary without resorting to propaganda and lies, such as how this is to “save the children”. But they do not, because they dont care and they dont have to care.

How is it narrow minded to wish for balance that is good both ways?

what ways are there for browser to infect you, discounting obvious things like downloading something yourself? I assume javascript can do something, but are there other things?

while more users for linux systems is really good, i hope it wont get too big of a market share. I’d rather have malware makers focus on other operating systems. It would be so nice to have good support for everything while simultaneously not having to worry about malware that much.

GDP is good measurement only for rich people yacht money though

oh my god why

same reason i wonder why some anime/movie websites i use urge their users to share stuff about it to others. Just keep your head down damn it, so I dont have to constantly search for new decent websites.

its just that china has tendency to mess with their direct neighbours

Its like getting robbed at gunpoint. Not much you can do about it.

Oh joy, china will effectively own russia at some point without having to even have a conflict for it. I really dont want china as neighbour.
