I'm more than sure that climate change will negatively impact the economy.
So I'd just say that there is something for shareholders (not to mention investment opportunities in green technologies), it's just that some people greedy shits who don't think about what happens in future.
Some of us reading this, will probably be alive for the first "Ow my balls!" episode.
Well, right now it's basically an arms race between recruiters and job seekers on who can put less effort in the process.
I'm fairly certain many recruiters absolutely abuse the hell out of LLMs to read résumés, and when LLM-generated resumes arrive en masse - why even bother.
And then you have some "bright minds" using AI agents to even do interviews, making people talk to robots. At some point the job seeking party is gonna do the same, and either it will be "interviewing is dying", or there will be some serious reconsiderations from employers on how not to organize hiring process.
When Moscow isn't silent about its attacks on our civilians - it gets even worse, just remember how they claimed that children's clinic "Okhmatdyt" was a military hospital.
Not to mention how some Telegram z-bloggers sometimes say quiet part out loud and cheer for Ukrainian kids getting killed because "they'll grow to be nationalists anyway".
I'll say most Ukrainians wish both sides "best of luck" (source: I'm Ukrainian) - to Israel because they supplied Lancet and Orlan technologies to Russia, to Iran because they supplied Shaheds and ballistic missiles to Russia, so these things are what directly impacted our lives and made them much worse.
As for why Zelensky sings praises for Taco Don from time to time - I don't believe that latter one can be swayed to help Ukraine (and Zelensky probably doesn't believe that too) but there's still Congress, that is somewhat cooperative from time to time, and we really need these sanctions that Taco Don now tries to delay and dilute.
Farmers in New Zealand are organized into cooperative, probably the biggest and most successful cooperative there is, and there's almost zero subsidizing from state for them.
That may be hypocritical, but having hostile neighbour, that itself doesn't respect any conventions (and Russians absolutely don't mind anti-personnel landmines among other things such as cluster munitions and chemical warfare) is a good stimuli to rethink ones principles.
Good thing Lemmy is safe since .ml folks agree with MAGA on lots of things. 🌝
Eh, I wouldn't put Gabbard and truth in one sentence though. Girl has been taking money from Assad at some point, which is like the lowest low.
Thank you Austria, but we still remember how you leaked NATO intelligence to Russia, so get bent.

That's repeating theme in Russian history though.
Back in 18th and 19th centuries French was spoken by Russian elites and wannabe aristocrates more than Russian.

In later USSR period Russians wanted everything American and dreamed to become Americans. As Western media started creeping in, fashion started creeping in, obtaining some Levi's pair of jeans meant you're the coolest guy around, would also mean you could have problems with police. But Western way of life with how it was portrayed, seemed superior in every way to what people had in decaying Soviet Union. Democracy with those charismatic leaders also seemed like a dream compared to Soviet increasingly geriatric leadership (oh the irony).
