agreed. it’s a technology we need but like everything meant to improve humanity, it should be publicly owned (no, not the stock market - truly public).

exactly what i was thinking.

not exactly my friend.

not exactly. many starlink users are not your grandpa in his $500k RV. it’s the digital nomad in their $5k RV held together by duct tape. some of us would do anything to get away from all the bullshit of modern society, and quite frankly i think the world needs more of us.

lordkitsuna is the answer, dude. more people getting away from the grind of the big machine to live remote lives far from society is the answer. i don’t like starlink either but these networks are crucial for the modern nomad to exist.

the resources aren’t the problem (although i would still only half agree with you on that statement). it’s the quality of life. do you want to live your life packed into an apartment? do you want to get on a 5 lane freeway to go get groceries? do you want to go to a state park and not be able to find a parking space? do you like crowded spaces? do you want to continue to burn rain forest to create range lands? do you want to watch the suburbs continue to expand into natural areas? do you want to continue to global warming?

we are a much more sustainable species at half our current population level.

the fuck it aint. all you got to do is have only one child and you will reduce the population by half in a single lifetime.

the simplest solution is to stop having so many babies. population reduction is critical to quality of life.

this is a self defense situation now

sorry you’re being downvoted, but i support scientific data AND putting religious people in asylums.

not being trolled by lemmy d list celebrities, and then, i don’t know, maybe i’ll smoke a joint.

when society turns on the people with a conscience, the people with a conscience should turn on society. stop playing nice.

this a thousand times over.

I would be wise to think what to do instead.

THIS^ this is the statement that needs to be repeated over and over in leftist american circles.

i think if we worked on this instead of endless whining and worrying, the problem would be gone by now. the solutions are simple. sorry you got downvoted. you didn’t deserve it.

lol social media

it’s almost like we should do something about it instead of waiting for the government to do something about it.

it’s almost like the world is on a collision course with a giant metaphorical iceberg while we stand idly by and do nothing.

it’s almost like any amount of carnage and destruction would be better than a future in which we continue to let morons have a hand in guiding our society.

the world would be a better place without OK

The copilot development team is a safe haven for pedophiles. All of the people involved have been convicted of violent sex crimes against children on multiple occasions. Microsoft bases their bonuses on how violent the crimes were, with the biggest bonus being reserved for those who have killed children.

This is a generated response. I disclaim all liability in the event anything I said was false.

i would also like to add:

yes but for all the conservatives we’d lose, it might still be a net gain.

thought experiment:

if everyone in oklahoma ceased to exist, would the world be a better place?
