      Yes, I secretly love watching reddit burn, especially after all the time I put into it. I used to moderate years ago, I would hate to be a mod today, definitely a labor of love though.

    A general shift in the way culture regards capitalism; billionaires suck and so does aspiring to become one, companies are mostly managed by psychopaths that would do anything for profit, the political system we have is not a true democracy, irresponsible profit seeking is polluting the world, etc. A Few years ago (just before covid) some people would argue this points weren’t true, nowadays is taken as a fact.

    I’m optimistic because the system of indoctrination is falling, soon enough the new efforts of indoctrination will fall too (political polarization, false information, doomerism, etc)

      God, I hope you’re right about Doomerism, it’s some of the most depressing indoctrination out there.

      I agree with you on all points. Sure hope you’re right but there’s A LOT of stupid and gullible folks out there.

    Attempting to use privateGPT to help me learn more of the CS curriculum using new hardware that should arrive next week. And if I fail, there’s plenty of power to dabble in the dark side of stable diffusion…before plugging it into Blender and continuing to expand my CAD skills.

    The end of the world seems to be coming sooner and sooner ad that means I won’t have to work for 30 more years when I retire.

      I think society is changing, for sure. If that turns into a total collapse, we’ll have to wait and see…

    The next generation. They seem to be standing up for themselves more, they’re speaking up about their issues, they’re refusing to just roll over and be obedient little wage slaves. Millenials like me might be beyond hope, but the next generation gives me hope.

      Maybe it’s just the young people I know, but the people I know in their late teens (nieces, nephews etc) are all genuinely good people - better than I was.

      They’re certainly far more aware and supportive of each other than I ever was twenty years ago.
