I bet Daniel Hudson has gotten to the point that he thinks he can radicalize the flies in his RV into his genocidal crusade.

One feature I really like in #aseprite is the ability to use simple math expressions in all the input fields.

One thing that does have an influence? Money. While the opinions of the bottom 90% of income earners in America have a “statistically non-significant impact,” economic elites, business interests, and people who can afford lobbyists still carry major influence.

In the last 5 years alone, the 200 most politically active companies in the U.S. spent $5.8 billion influencing our government with lobbying and campaign contributions.

Those same companies got $4.4 trillion in taxpayer support — earning a return of 750 times their investment.

I like this, it fits with my prediction/observation that high tech - especially ai - will dissolve centralized civilization as we know it. We'll probably be left to choose between techno-feudal smart cities w/ digital id (because how else will we know if you're a real human?) and more rustic libertarian small towns/vilages (w/ a few small free cities here and there) powered by self-sustaining high tech (3d-printers, exotic alt-tech, etc.) and irl interpersonal relationships.
In other words, technology will force us to return to tradition, so to speak.

Can people realize that this whole shoplifting epidemic is all a psyop? Why are governments making it legally harder to prevent shoplifting? It's to crush the brick and motor stores and force everyone to do their shopping on Amazon.
