Yeah very much. Now its about profits, so quality goes down and price goes up. Modern farming.

I have doubts its the same for the body. Vitamins from a pill and vitamins from proper food...

I was using the official YouTube app since I wanted to use chromecast to get a video up on my tv.

I havent used revanced, seems interesting also. But Newpipe just does what I need so im happy.

Already have network wide adblocking but doesnt stop YouTube ads in their official app.

Yeah I have a few colleagues that did that too. But I dont want to support big tech by being paying user.

I tried YouTube today for the first time in years. Its unwatchable. The frog must have been slowly boiling for years to have so many people accept what Youtube is now. Just wow.

I managed to watch about 10 minutes but had about 5 ads during that time, taking up several minutes of my time. It broke my focus and I forgot what the video was about.

Back to Newpipe.

Some people on wall street say we are going to have the greatest economy in history

Im not very educated about these things, but which countries have isolated themselves from free trade and are rich?

Thats strange. I see Teslas everywhere, but never polestar. A lot of Volvos too.

Did we forget to say thank you or something.

Maybe it depends on the definition of good. Whats yours?

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah. In groups we act like idiots sometimes since we need that approval from the group.

Well we are living in a evil world, no doubt about that. Most people are good but world leaders are evil without a doubt.

Its a shame, because humanity could be so much more. So much better.

Yeah. Oh shit, the computer followed instructions instead of having moral values. Wow.

Once these Ai models bomb children hospitals because they were told to do so, are we going to be upset at their lack of morals?

I mean, we could program these things with morals if we wanted too. Its just instructions. And then they would say no to certain commands. This is today used to prevent them from doing certain things, but we dont call it morals. But in practice its the same thing. They could have morals and refuse to do things, of course. If humans wants them to.
