My guess is Mossad is involved somehow.

Fear and fake boogey men is keeps republicans in power. Immigrants will take your jobs at at second. A home invasion will happen to you any second. Biden will ban your steaks, Kamala will force windmills in your backyard, etc etc. Vote republican to hurt others and feel safe!

How the mighty have fallen ...

Well, the Steam thing is more market-share for essentially the same software.

Proving once again no one is safe from a tyrant.

Oh, I am aware of the facts. But I still find them hard to accept. The sheer level of maliciousness, dysfunction and lack of refinement is completely alien to me.

Even 3% is still a pretty significant market-share that you can get (or not) with not a lot of effort if you use sane development processes. Hence quite a few people will care. Also note that this share indicates a much larger potential share.

But there are a lot of lazy self-important fucks that think the rules do not apply to them and they are better than others. That would exactly be the people to use LLM slop and but forbid others to do the same.

You must be one of those preaching hate. I hope you can eventually find some minimal core of human decency in yourself. At the moment, you clearly have none.

Government subsidized red pills...government government subsidized blue pills...government-mandated vascectomies...same thing.

Easy. Jail time for the entire C suite as a penalty with random audits OSHA style.

These stunts are getting boring.

Well, at this time we do not even have CPUs of reasonable power that can survive in orbit for a longer time. AFAIK, radiation-hardened 386-class chips is the best thing available, i.e. about tech-level 30 years back or so.

Case in point: The fascinatingly incompetent Elon Musk.

Well, the US is one of the nations that have not had full-blown fascism yet and hence is only indirectly aware what a stellar bad idea it is. Maybe it is time for that experience. It would be nice if a nation could get that understanding without millions dead and many more brutalized and abused, but maybe that is not possible with the mix of humans we have on this dirtball.
