As long as you don’t let too much magic smoke escape.

This sounds like the machine from Idiocracy that prints your ID on your arm. First Name: “Not” Last name: “Sure” Tattooing “Not Sure” on your arm for identification!

Good thing made up stories from social media prompt lawmakers to pass laws at record breaking speed rather than do something about the fires burning right in front of them. Let’s see what other bullshit that can be made up to get things done!

Two sides of the same coin if you will.

Sort what you know is predictable bs. For example, you know the bad actors are going to always say or do outrageous things for distraction. I use the uBlock Origin browser plugin with filters for “Trump” “Elon” “Maga” and most news sites have about 2 or 3 articles worth reading. Entries even get blanked on Lemmy. Instead of seeing “TRUMP, ELON, MAGA DO THIS!!!” You now see “Secretary of Defense halts Cybersecurity from offensive attacks on Russia” from a decent source. This narrows most news to either things that may affect you directly or helps you build a better informed opinion. Also, if you are in the US, take every opinion from the house of reps and the senate and throw it in the trash. Until they quit acting like children and begin negotiating like adults, they have absolutely nothing good to say. That’s a good chunk of the “news” right there. So when you see stuff like “REP INTRODUCES BILL TO …” just stop reading. If you care to look further look for the bill number and actually read it. Most of the time it’s really stupid crap tactics just to rile up the public. They have been doing that for well over a century. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

tl;dr: sort the troll news.

The type steel they used isn’t easily bendable. In fact, it’s a very expensive process just to get the panels in the shape they are. You also have to replace a whole panel if it gets damaged. Instead of snapping / drilling things into place, I’m guessing this is why they just slap Elmer’s glue on with " the highest quality allowed by law" (Tesla’s words) 3M blue tape. It’s $100k for a reason, but a reason that creates maximum turd polishing for people that bought it.

In some agencies, you are trained to disobey an unethical or unlawful order. I guess people just rapidly clicked through the power point slides on mandatory training days.

Can start with people not directing anyone to the .ml, or .ml like instances for starters. Maybe even sticky that the top.

I can see this going absolutely side ways when your mind tries to cope with where 1000+ hours of your life went. Also you’d probably get 1000+ hours of ads beamed into your brain to make up for that gap of time, unless you pay for the “Memory+” or “Memory Max” tier, with just slightly less ads. Would be cool to experience a game for the first time again, but I would just read a book or share gaming “war stories” with my imaginary buddies.

What if they use slightly terse language? A little below harsh language, but above mildly inconvenienced.

Where does one sign up for the Monopoly version of the justice system?

Praise the Omnisiah! … I’ll see myself out.

Oh are they starting to introduce machine spirits and how to appease them with the proper litany?

I don’t even … Just odd.

Moral victories rather than actual victories to stop or slow this down was their focus. And it still is.

Most AI’s are really just digital dumbasses persuading people it’s not a fancy chatbot.
