All I said was it’s a waste of money, if that feels like a personal attack, that sucks.

You don’t have enough yes people around you clearly!

Honestly though, can we really call these people smart anymore?

I think they’re just incredibly greedy.

Do they think this is gonna play well with their security minded base?

Cancelling isn’t that hard.

Yea that’s fine but if the majority of your life is getting home unexpectedly late and exhausted, you have other more pressing problems.

Cooking is normal, healthier, cost saving, fun, etc.

Try again lol.

Wife and I clear 6 figures easy.

That shit is still a massive waste of money and it barely even saves time half the damn time because the drivers are awful.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but depression is only made worse by overspending on luxury food because you couldn’t do dishes.

Thats wild. I instacart maybe 3 times a year but have done it for years in a pinch.

Haven’t used any other food delivery for years because they’re a complete ripoff.

$25 for two meals is kinda meh, it seems good relative to everything else now but you can make a weeks worth of food with $20 and the right veggies, noodles, and a protein.

If you discount or coupon shop you can get even better.

Unfortunately most people in the US don’t respect themselves enough to fight for the rights and wages to not have to work 60 hours a week and then they get convenient overpriced food.

It’s dumber when you consider that cooking is not only fun, but once you’re good at it, it’s really fast and easy to make a way better meal than you’d ever get.

I can make a better smash burger than 95% of the bullshit places popping up, and for a literal fraction of the cost.

How is this even possible?

Door dash sucks ass. Instacart has been the only delivery service I’ve never had an issue with around my area and now it’s fucked too?

I don’t get it

It’s more than anti intellectualism though.

Many people are just sick of being forced into a society that only values productivity, gives nothing back to you for your efforts, and expects more time out of your week than you get with your family.

AI hasn’t solved any of that, it’s made all of it worse.

LLMs have accelerated people’s worst aspects.

And your comment is an incredibly reductive view of people who have already been effected negatively by AI.

You are adding to the same bullshit you claim to be making a smart comment against.

Try again.

Fair enough!

I’ve been vocally against Linus AI advocacy, but I do understand all the points you make here.

I don’t like that a lot of stupid people will take Torvalds use and embrace of AI as gospel that AI is some be all end all.

I also LOATH that he is indirectly benefitting fascist corporations that committed the largest theft in human history.

But the code is good 🤷‍♂️

To say I am conflicted, is an understatement.

Yes thank you!

Can’t believe I forgot the INSANE amount of waste

Use a damn French press.

It’s not hard.

These stupid machines suck, make shit coffee, and surveil you.

People are so lazy

Yea it’s almost like American politicians on the right have run a 40 year long campaign to weaken unions, turn people against them, and even attempt to outlaw them.

Nothing works if the government doesn’t, I hate to break that to people but politics is life.

“thing doesn’t work on me, therefore it’s the same for everyone or not a problem”.

Fuckin classic lol.

It’s wild when people like you act wise but expose the complete lack of worldview extremely fast.

Yea that’s my whole argument. We lost very important things for some bullshit.

Should be an option, not mandatory.

Nah hold on.

Manufacturers stole repairability and the headphone jack from us under the guise of waterproofing and now you make fun of people who use the feature?!?

If I had to give that shit up then I want the damn feature. Otherwise waterproof speakers exist and we never had to give up anything.
