Yes, I’ll just trust the AI to help me fuck around with grid voltage levels.
With google search results becoming so poor, I guess I need to look into kagi or duck-duck. Pain in my dick, motherless goatfucking, horsehit-happy asshole, corporate varmints gotta fuck it all up for more profit. I’m tired, yo.
The days when YouTube had actual people in their cluttered garages, basements, and driveways showing you how to fix shit was good. Between the algorithm fucking it over and AI giving wrong info, we’re likely going to win some Darwin awards en masse, around the house.
I’ve tried it. It’s good for plucking out game solutions (low risk), and finding the right forum for That Linux Workaround. Or just parroting Wiki.
Catch it in a wrong answer and it will answer just as confidently, agreeing that it was wrong. And yet.
And we’re destroying homes and the life equity of working class for this.
To be fair YouTube was full of bullshit DIY videos too. You used to be able to see which ones got lots of downvotes for being bad…but nah, let’s not show that to people anymore
Sensitive Sally’s didn’t like being downvoted. So the losers at Cherry Ave changed the whole site to not trigger mentally ill people.
A species-level Darwin award is the solution to the Fermi Paradox.
Yep, we’re our own great filter.
I think the “Darwin awards” are part of the plan to be honest. These guys in the TESCREAL crowd are pretty much exo-facist malthusians that think the rest of us are expendable.
A Modest Proposal. The Theil credo.
There are still good YT channels. Learn Linux TV is excellent, as is Sabine Hossenfelder, Anton Petrov, Techmoan, and Louis Rossmann.
Yes, but they’re harder to find organically, since the search function seems to be set up to barf out the top 10 most trafficked. For example, I’ve trained my algorithm to never give me 731 Woodworking (looks like a QVC ad, every time, no woodworking), but if I search for new woodworking, that’s what I get, a long list of mostly 731 woodworking.
And, for whatever reason, people love watching re-rolled clips (the poster didn’t create) of whatever with someone making expressions and reacting to it. Worst content ever, and yet.
