 "ah the communists sucked at everything which is why chernobl and famine and
 all their toasters were made out of lead"
 
 meanwhile
 
 "yeah let's use AI to build nuclear reactors for us without human oversight or
 even with human oversight because humans are both fallible and infallible
 depending on the situation"
 
 and I'm like... "ah wish I had a point with this post"
 
 and they're like "holy fuck did you hear that too" "yeah man what the hell was
 that" "I dunno but it seemed completely unrelated to what was going on" "so,
 uh... let's just never talk about this again" "yeah sounds good. talk about
 what?" "heh yeah, right. so uh, anyway, about this nuclear reactor..."

 picture from 2020. y'know, most workers have to work or starve in general.
 "mandatory volunteering" indeed, you even get to choose where you do so! how
 lucky are we.
picture of a grocery store clerk with the words from 2020 inscribed "frontline workers are not heroes"  then in the next comic style panel there's more words that say "they're hostages" with a photoshopped-in picture of a guy holding a gun with presumably a look on his face we can't tell all we get is the arm with the gun and the pistol shaped shadow surrounding the arm and the gun but there's a message bubble style thing from offscreen so presumably he has a face and it's got a look of some kind on it and the message bubble says "work or starve"

 did you know that you can run an AI image generator using a previous picture as
 input? It's true! Most people think you need to write with words what you want,
 like "cat eating spaghetti mlem mlem mlem mlem" or "rollercoaster made out of
 bananas sliperideedoo" but the truth is you can instead use it for more useful
 things like "run this bash script 15 times, each time inserting a different
 countryname in the text: person from ${COUNTRY_NAME}" with a profile pic of you
 and suddenly you got plausible definability

 OH
 
 this right here is so crucial
noblesse oblige /ō-blēzh′/ noun      Benevolent, honorable behavior considered to be the responsibility of persons of high birth or rank. The honourable obligation that is the responsibility of those of high rank; in American English this often includes the expectation of benevolent actions such as helping those less fortunate. The obligation of those of high rank to be honorable and generous (often used ironically).

 I was going to go to location today, but then while I was considering going to
 a different location before going to location I decided not to vacate my home
 for today for reasons I don't understand but accept as natural and due to the
 increased presence of directionless motion that guides and prevails me. which
 is to say... I'm staying in tonight even though I really really wanna show off
 my cute new outfit! I probably will do cannabis so there might be a
 psycherwaul. If there isn't, then y'know it's probably because either my
 girlfriend distracted me, or I managed to convince myself to move my feet
 anyway. Maybe it's my outfit? I wonder if I could leave if I wore my old
 clothes... ah well, questions for the vocal I guess. Gonna spend some time
 divining and see if I can gather new insights. "brb door" except more like "brb
 magic"

 [software developers too, when working on software for tabular related scrudm

 I bet they could if they used AI to pump out bugfixes. The more they worked on
 it, the more the people demanding they work on that project in particular by
 proposing a customization request form attached to an itinerary and invoice.
 the user is free to work on them in whatever order they wish and the developer
 and the users compete for contracts.
