I am pretty sure these laws have nothing to do with "protecting children"

Companies like Amazon, Netflix, and Meta are paying salaries as high as $900,000 to attract generative AI talent
I can almost guarantee these jobs require 15 years of experience with AI technology.

Why are so many climate records breaking all at once?
Reply in thread
There is a scene in the TV show Newsroom (with Jeff Daniels) where he (the news show anchor) is interviewing a climate scientist about the climate change situation. Everything the scientist says eludes to the fact that we are completely screwed. That everything we are trying would have been great things to start doing 20+ years ago. At this point we have already passed the point of recovery.
It was aired in like 2015, and I think of it every time someone talks about this, and what a surprise this whole thing is.

I Completed my First Final Fantasy game!
Congratulations! Haven’t played FF 1 in years, but I still think about it.
Here is an OLD 8-bit comic “based” on the story and characters from that game. Always makes me smile.

But… but without those heroic political figures, how will mega-corporations be allowed to continue maximizing profits.
This type of shortsighted ignorance is what causes drops economic growth and allows communism to win.
…. I’m being told that it’s now trans people, not communists that are the real threat.
…. No, no wait it’s still communists. So both I guess?

Ron DeSantis met with swathes of empty seats at Iowa event, photo shows
Reply in thread
Don’t worry, it’s not him. It’s those damn woke liberals from Iowa that are stopping people from getting to the event with all their… wokeness. (…wokness? ….wokenness? ….wokenism?)

how it feels to be on Lemmy rn
Reply in thread
Right now, because it’s still growing and developing, Lemmy has this sudo-wild west felling to it. Like anything can happen.
This was how things were in the early days of the internet. With no way to know how things are going to turn out, people are just hanging out. Smaller groups interacting with each other, and just having fun.
It feels like a reboot, or a modern revision of the how things were.

As opposed to hiding behind religion or quoting that one passage in the bible, the dude straight up said that he thinks gay people are icky. That level of honesty is rarely found in these discussions.
I have family members who are covered in tattoos, wearing blended fabrics, worship football, and will quote that passage as to why being gay is wrong. It infuriates me to no end.
