I predict a world where it’s too hot for most to work, air-conditioning becoming mandatory everywhere, a slowing of development in terms of properties being built. The search for automation as a response. Cooling suits being widely used. The majority of the world’s crops failing. Food stipends being delivered on specialised trucks to each home… Perhaps by a division of the military… People dying on mass in the third world and quietly in their rooms in the first. Rolling black outs become waves of death. Experts dying on the job trying to fix them. Skinny bodies fighting for life, or fighting each other for food. Death squads who think killing is the answer. A daily announcement of what percentage of the country is on fire… But we’ll probably mostly be dying of thirst by then. Maybe it won’t be so bad.

It needs warnings for of a game requires you to be connected to the internet to play, and if the developer has ever deactivated usage rights to their games.

FoxConn? Or that Bangladeshi factory that rioted? Where is Apple Vision made?

I can see developers working on Vision Pro apps and games if they’re more expensive on that particular platform.

So I think it will be like the iPhone app store compared to Google Play store, with iPhone having more paid apps, and Google having more free apps… Only in the VR space Meta is the competitor, and already has a wide selection of apps and games.

The vast majority of things the Apple vision pro does have already been done better on the Quest platform… Including porn.

But the Quest also has a wide selection of games… And is much cheaper.

When you shower you’re supposed to vigorous rub your scalp with your finger tips. Some people don’t get taught how to do it.

[EDIT: P.S I once got rid of a psoriasis like skin irritation by giving it an even cover of yakult three times a day (once in the morning, once at lunch time, and once before bed). My theory on why this worked is that it reset the biome whilst forming a protective shell that deprived oxygen to the effected area.]

Lots of companies will do this, eventually advertising the purity and the size of their human created training data.

These will be the companies selling their content to AI companies, although some will probably just be scanned in illegally. Perhaps a new type of copy write lawsuit will have to be invented.

Most people will continue to use these sites, aware their data is being used like this.

How are these memes different from ideas and the world of conscious human discourse?

Capitalism hasn’t existed forever, it literally started in the late 1700s during a period called The Industrial revolution, when factory machining started the first cottage industries that pushed out previous modes of hand crafting.

At that point, when machines and cottages to hold them started to be required for mass production and hence competition in the market (pushing out hand crafting as a competitor) CAPITAL became a requirement of mass wealth accumulation… because one needed large sums of Capital to buy the machinery, rent the building, and hire and train the workers to exploit. So it became the limited province of the already well off to do.

That’s when Capitalism was born, and why it’s named CAPITAL-ism. Because it has Capital requirements if you want to join the Capitalist class. It was created in the British Industrial Revolution.

That you’re unaware of this change in the mode of production and what it represents, and believe that "oh Capital has just existed forever" is what some Marxists refer to as being in a state of “false consciousness”.

The system wasn’t always this way, and doesn’t have to necessarily be this way (eg. Marx offered the model of workers owning the machinery or “means of production” as his alternative, and there are likely others). Capitalism is a product of a technological “change of epoch” of the “mode of production.”

…and it’s defined the age we live in, and how we think. Which is what the later Frankfurt School neo-marxists discuss.

P.S. It’s also worth noting that the British Industrial Revolution, The French Revolution, and the American Revolution all overlap in time periods. Live was very different before the late 1700s.

No problem is ever solved no solution has ever been without further problems.

This is indicative of an ever expanding problem-solution matrix of entropy, meaning we’re neither solving issues nor creating problems, we’re just creating more complex landscapes to navigate.

This is why Buddhist monks and high tech computerized supply chains can both legitimately be said to have the answers we need, even though they’re from radically different ends of this entropy.

It’s also why they’re both wrong and lying to themselves.

We are both the problem and the solution.

With a lot of shots, scenery, and concepts stolen right from the movie Dark City.

I suspect that’s not a mission critical function for someone stuck on another planet with no internet.

Probably because Putin just found out the population sucks at flying drones.

So the main task would be writing the custom OS, which with enough coders and a coherent plan could theoretically be done.

The hardware will just be a small form factor computer or gaming laptop in a box, with a controller attached.

It will be deconstructed day one, and what hardware they went with will be revealed.

One of each please.

Yeah, via SideQuest (which is a sideloader program), and most game engine support quest development. However it wouldn’t surprise me if Meta were able to prevent that.

They really are horrible to devs, they offer no real support, especially for Unreal devs, and their dev forums are practically dead because of this.

They don’t understand how to encourage devs. I was thinking of getting a Meta Quest 3, but seeing this post has me reconsidering the idea.

So Reddit can but Lemmy can’t? Sad.

A difficult one to develop a good U.I. for.
