Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also xcancle.org (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

"Hunger at Auschwitz has many authors, but Germany isn't one of them"
They're mad about Ms. Rachel too.
Some of the highlights:
Still, I wish she featured both a Palestinian child and an Israeli child who was taken hostage by Hamas
As though Hamas is starving and conducting genocide against Israel
During a horrific divorce process
Many such cases
It’s disappointing that The Post chose to highlight Rachel Griffin Accurso, who has used her Ms. Rachel platform in ways that many feel promote an atmosphere of antisemitism.
"many feel" doing all the heavy lifting here
In March, I posted a single comment on one of Ms. Rachel’s Instagram posts, offering to speak with her about Israel and what I saw as inaccuracies in her messaging. That one comment led to hundreds of scathing public responses, as well as direct messages from users calling me a genocidal Zionist and Nazi, among other slurs.
lmao
However, Rogers’s decision to invite a man of color to join the talent of his show is in no way analogous to Accurso’s decision to platform only one side of the horrifying Israel-Gaza war.
Cope and seethe, Zionazi
Someone should tell Israel there's a Hamas base in WaPo's offices.
Even more alarming is how reliant the economy has become on spending binges by the richest Americans.
The top 10 percent of earners now drive about half of spending, according to Moody’s, up from 36 percent three decades ago.
As long as their greed is stronger than our fear, everything will be fine! 
Babe wake up, you're gonna miss the latest manufactured economic crisis designed to drain the middling savings of the working class for the third time since 2008
When the AI bubble pops, it's going to be worse than the mortgage crisis.
I know this is a hot take here, but I don't think the AI bubble will ever fully pop. We've been looking at it like its just another business investment: something investors pour money into because it'll one day turn a profit. It's not. Its military spending in the class war. The dream of an AI worker who can replace all human labor is the Manhattan Project of the owner class, and they will happily spend (not invest, spend) their excess wealth chasing this dream no matter poorly these tools preform or how little market there is for them
Eventually, there has to be profit? I get where you are coming from, but there has to be a point where there is a margin call? Can we really expect that much solidarity from the owner class, to turn down profits?
I think governments will just step in to ensure profits. The technology is seemingly perfect for surveillance, suppression, imprisonment, and counterinsurgency.
Sure, sometimes innocent people will be hallucinated into being terrorists and killed, but it's not like the government will care.
The only way I see the bubble popping is if Hamas ultimately proves the technology can be defeated by guerilla tactics because governments would pull out their investments as a result. Then the bubble will pop.
I don't think it's solidarity. More of a shared delusion. Robot slaves are just too exciting and whoever gets them first would quickly become chief oligarch. Its worth losing money to chase that dream
You and I
as if an ai with human intelligence and the ability to learn wont want things
GPT 5 coming out today so that might be soon if it's a disappointment
I think it's going to have more to do with the fact that none of these AI companies are making any money. They're lighting mountains of venture capital money on fire with nothing to show for it. I don't think the bubble will pop until rent is due.
I really don’t think the profit margins on AI atm are important for capital.
AI is the golden goose for capital, it’s the promised land, valhalla…a cataclysmic event for life on earth materially and existentially speaking. The promise of AI is the abolition of the most cumbersome cost of every business: labor.
Imagine the circling of wagons every time a sucdem gets publicity, but like 4000 times worse, they will coalesce around this development and they will absolutely dump all of their wealth to achieve this promise, no matter how unfeasible and illusory it is
no matter how unfeasible and illusory it is
For the time being, sure, yeah they will. But how long will this go on for without satisfactory, proven results?
So far, while there has been some labour replaced by AI (for example, with very straight-forward and simple jobs/tasks like reading audio books) it's been piecemeal at best. Some companies that have tried to replace their frontline support workers with AI have had to backtrack and hire back their human workers. Some companies that replaced their developers with AI generated code had to backtrack and hire engineers to figure out why their servers were running like ass - oh, whoops, the AI code was dogshit wrapped in cat shit!
The AI companies keep promising that "it will get better" and "we pinky swear we'll be profitable by 2030" and "this is just the beginning" but these empty promises can't go on forever, especially with the tens (hundreds?) of billions of dollars being lit on fire.
Looking forward to my YouTube suggestions being 'This changes everything', 'We are cooked' etc etc
I dunno, who's gonna lose their homes? AI is so concentrated at the very highest heights of the capitalist class, with very little relevant workforce, that I see it blowing up in their faces more than anything.
wtf but the stock market is doing better than ever. this can't be true.
somebody still spending more and more on advertising 
unless they've gone to lala land, that implies that porkies still have money coming out of their ears (at least enough to shovel at google and facebook)
The United States isn’t in a recession, but last Friday shattered the image of a resilient economy that can withstand the tariff uncertainty.
Nah, the economy isn't cracking, it's just 'seasoning' 
Let’s all Stockton rush to the goal of a booming economy!
is it possible to get an archive link?
updated the post to add it in
Thank you. Realized after I asked I needed to take some time and learn how to do this.
it is useful to figure out since so much stuff is paywalled nowadays
Central banks are shitting themselves all over the globe. Only a matter of time.
