I’m winning a War, BY A LOT, things are going very well, our Military has been amazing and, if you read the Fake News, like The Failing New York Times, the absolutely horrendous and disgusting Wall Street Journal, or the now almost defunct, fortunately, Washington Post, you would actually think we are losing the War. The enemy is confused, because they get these same Media “reports,” and yet they realize their Navy has been completely wiped out, their Air Force has gone onto darker runways, they have no Anti Missile or Anti Airplane Equipment, their former leaders are mostly gone (This has been, in addition to everything else, Regime Change!), and perhaps, most important of all, THE BLOCKADE, which we will not take off until there is a “DEAL,” is absolutely destroying Iran. They are losing $500 Million Dollars a day, an unsustainable number, even in the short run. The Anti-America Fake News Media is rooting for Iran to win, but it’s not going to happen, because I’m in charge! Just like these unpatriotic people used every ounce of their limited strength to fight me in the Election, they continue to do so with Iran. The result will be the same — It already is!

If the physical disconnect between killing a person (e.g. UAVs) wasn't enough to make that task easier then further offloading the decision of who to target might help.

Have you used ChatGPT to investigate something you're knowledgeable about?

ChatGPT is consistently lying (hallucinating), sometimes in small ways and sometimes in not so small ways.

"Pursuing this path" kicked-off 2 years ago when the tech industry collectively conducted the first round of unprecedented-in-scale (until the following year) 'right-sizing'.

You've essentially summarised a key Marxist critique of Capitalism.

What you've described - the need for people to have autonomy, value, and ownership over the work they do - is the core tenet of Marxism.

Nintendo (and some others) used to do this in the early days of Let's Play. People stopped doing Nintendo Let's Plays for a while until Nintendo somewhat relented.

No - Windows 10 was initially pushed as the 'final version' of Windows. MS drove this home by saying 'Windows is a service' at each update.

They backtracked once they realised they're losing money by not having the sales bump from numbered upgrades i.e. the sales bump from planned obsolescence
