I think the feature is cool and I'm looking forward to it personally.

Maybe they should have made it opt in, but social features like this on other platforms like discord and stream aren't, so .. eh.

It's just so hard to see where we transition from here.

We went from a resource economy to a manufacturing economy to a service economy... And now many services are being automated. So what's next?

I'm in favor of the automation but recognize it's going to cause pain in the near future.

I've seen people tout a 'creative based economy', but to be honest LLMs and GANs seen poised to grab that sector before anyone in service can transition to it.

You'd hope all of this would mean an easier life, but so long as capitalism is the name of the game there is zero incentive to spread the benefits among all.

No.

It's cheaper to out source it this way because as their farmers are contractors they don't have to adhere to the legal responsibilities they would if they ran them in their own.

They can keep their contracted farmers in debt to them indefinitely and essentially have a class of indentured servants.

It's Louisiana, they would go back to 1800 if they could.

Don't tell this guy about how often Congress devolved into fist fights, cane beatings and duels during our countries early years.

I'm feeling pretty fatigued.

Thanks, I deleted my comment

And my guess would be Marcy being Polaski

The legislature can and will find ways to neuter the amendment.

They did it here in Florida when we voted to restore the rights of felons after their punishment was complete.

The legislature ruled that the felons had to pay back all outstanding fees before they could get their rights back. Felons get changed by the jail for their stay, so most leave with 100s of thousands in debt on the books.

Then the state purposely makes it impossible for felons to even find out how much they owe, meaning even if they were to somehow get the money paying is very difficult.

It has effectively prevented any felons from getting their voting rights back. I think the actual number who have is less than 10 and we passed that amendment in 2020.

These signs are rarely locked and are vandalized like this all the time.

This is a non story really.
