@brib the rapid onset of helplessness I see around me is troubling This goes for so much tech. Once people get used to some little convenience they seem to forget how they used to just get along fine

@brib Aw come on, he’s a tech pundit. The list things he can’t do… He has to maintain that willful ignorance so the tech bros will talk to him.

@brib as youtuber milo rossi says with some regularity whenever some conspiracy theorist harps on about how some ancient piece of masonry was made with very high precision and that we couldn’t do such a feat today, with all our technology: ‘i dare you to walk up to a union bricklayer and say that to his face, softhands!’

@brib the one that still gets me is one of them saying, seriously, "without AI, how would anyone know how to pack a diaper bag or raise children?" I keep hoping he was joking. Maybe it was, and he forgot to get ai to write a funny one for him?
