America on that any% speedrun to become Cyberpunk universe.. trauma team, anyone?

I've said many times the only thing missing between this reality and a cyberpunk dystopia is full-dive VR.

Android XR just got announced. And given they have little to no idea how to use it, it is going to be a full on ad space.

I'm confused. Was there another CEO killed or harmed? Or was it still just the one? I mean, if CEOs were falling like flies in NY state, then I guess it would make sense to have a special hotline for a task force or something.

But if it's still a tiny number of CEOs, then something like this would be a giant waste of government resources.

The only other one I know of is Bob Lee, the Cash App one a year and a half ago. The circumstances were completely different however, as His brother-in-law stabbed him in a 'scuffle' after Bob supposedly became manic (from drugs and/or alcohol) and attacked the guy.

The case has been ongoing since, though the jury is supposed to read a verdict in a little under 7 hours (9:30am PST)

Sometimes, wasting government resources is the point.

Then again, journalists are mostly fair game.

I would be ok with this if the working class has a say in a daily wait music and elevator music for the corpo buildings.

I am still pissed at Trevor Noah that he paraded the corrupt criminal reactionary ex-cop Eric Adams around as some sort of great achievement for black people, after Adams won the mayor election in NYC.

Errr...you guys have to wait on hold on 911? This isn't just a joke?

[–] graycube 11 points 22 hours ago

Yes, in some jurisdictions this is common.

Satire is dead. Not enough CEOs have followed suit.

And now the rich get their own military for use against the citizens

I don't think so?

Well, being a CEO should be considered suicidal ideation. We already have a hotline for that.

What jobs did those kids create? They still can't even find their bootstraps.

This idea would not be terrible, actually, you just need the right class allies on the other side of the line

Edit: to clarify, I meant having regular working-class people actively sabotaging it

Or, we could go with a better solution - chain every health insurance CEO to a boulder, and throw them into the Sea!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

An excellent notion! In the spirit of compromise, I'd be willing to accept exiling them to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. We could call 'em the Garbage Patch Kids!

Was waiting for a special type of Porsche, but tapparently I was wrong. Would be a good way to escape quickly Amy responsibility !

[–] [email protected] 0 points 18 hours ago

How would that even work? Like who would qualify? Can't I just open a small shop and be legally a CEO?

This smells like fake news
