But I’m 20 and healthy, why should I have to pay for healthcare for mrs. sickey over there? Did she even try being born without a chronic illness? Doubt it.

Dude, my cat is pissed now. Thanks.
Ah, the age old “right” vs “effective” argument.
The cost to rent is nearly the same as buying one, might as well pay it forward!
If you’re in need, check out PCsForPeople, they offer subsidized unlimited 4G hotspots. They’re well suited for low-bandwidth uses and was my primary home internet for a few years. I used Wifi bridge routers to help connect ethernet / more devices / better range.
There’s also still the Lifeline program, which is a much smaller discount, but can still help.
GAS is absolutely something I’ve done. Is it a problem? Depends on perspective. Sometimes the nicer equipment makes the hobby so much more enjoyable at the early stages that I’m more likely to stick with it. Sometimes I spent a lot more money than was required because there’s a lot of gatekeeping in hobbyist circles. How many times have you heard arguments like “the Manoblaster XYZ 22.9 is trash and if you’re serious, you really should look at the Ploydester 7, it’s got 9 more omicron settings and it really hits the low tags like nothing else can.”
This may be No Stupid Questions, but there sure are a lot of stupid answers.
Taxpayer investment in private firms needs to come with dividends for taxpayers.
and propaganda
Well, that’s the rub, right? Garbage in, garbage out. For an LLM, the value is predicting the next token, but we’ve seen how racist current datasets can be. If you filter it, there’s not as much lot of high quality data left.
So yes, we have a remarkable amount of (often wrong) information to pull from.
From Lemmy, this link took me to Slashdot, which took me to The Verge, which took me to the Wall Street Journal, each with a section I can discuss this article.
It solves the problem of “I invested billions of dollars in this tech and need to recoup in every possible way”
We’re (American’s specifically, but I see echoes in westernized European countries) propagandized into thinking angst is the natural state of teenagers rather than the natural state of teenagers within this specific system. I think teens can just more clearly see the brutal society they’re about to be forced into and don’t have the cognitive dissonance of benefiting from that brutal society yet.
No, it’s “better” to source materials for education from the students themselves. In the US, good luck learning if you don’t have the mandated school supplies. I’m sure if we didn’t need the state-sponsored daycare so adults can work, the administration would rather have all students be virtual.
“Consent” was not a popular topic on early Reddit. Or the internet writ large, I guess.
