So they can rob noncitizens using asset forfeiture laws. Never travel in or through the US if you need to transport large sums of money or valuables.

Actually, the better advice is never travel in or through the US. I wish that were an option for me.

You've been here. So you've witnessed first hand our lack of social cohesion. We're not a civilized people. We're barely above feral and deeply ensconced in tribalism. Capitalists did a great job gaslighting this country into this situation where we're aware of their abuse but somehow still manage to blame one another instead of the abuser. The Business Plot didn't fail, it bided its time and rolled out slowly and surreptitiously.

It's a phenomenon I seem to encounter more and more where previously inconsequential and simple to accomplish tasks have been obfuscated and enshittified just enough that its "easier" to do the shitty longer way they want to force you to use.

As someone that works in tech and is in no way averse to updating my own drivers: this is why I just used the stupid app out of frustration. Even knowing my exact GPU it was still a hassle.

Tomorrow, it’ll be something like nanites accumulating in our body

I get that already with hemochromatosis! They're just dumbots for now but some day the ferretin deposited in my organs will make great building materials for nanites to turn me into grey goo.

Why do we need a game engine just for one dance or dental hygiene activity. Seems oddly specific to two very different tasks.

Tread on me, daddy.

It's the massive list of GPUs and all their variants that probably made it such a memorably bad experience.

art should never be ~~efficient~~ defined in absolutes or otherwise arbitrarily constrained

It's not that bad, and usually only when drinking a lot of coffee. The urgency is what kills me. Like not a thing, nothing and then from nowhere: YOU MUST GO NOW.
