Have you never had a corporate job? A technology can be very much useless while incompetent 'managers' who believe it can do better than humans WILL buy the former to get rid of the latter, even though that's a stupid thing to do, in order to meet their yearly targets and other similar idiotic measures of division/team 'productivity'
Congratulations !
Thx, corrected
It's also not the first or only 21st century technology that is or was waaaaaaaaay overhyped.
First it was the Blockchain
Then it was the Cloud
Now it's Artificial Stupidity.
We do. 'Spring fever' is very real. What's less clear is why.
I have a friend who was addicted to both cocaine and alcohol. While he, of course, is convinced that cocaine is one of the worst substances to have ever existed, he is even more wary of alcohol because of: (I'm obviously both paraphrasing AND excluding most countries with a Muslim majority here)
a) Social acceptance. No one is ever going to judge you for quietly sitting in the corner of a bar drinking your beer. Try snorting a line on the same setting and see what happens.
b) Availability. Even in sparsely populated areas, you are never too far away (say, a 10 minute walk) from a bottle of wine/spirit/beer.
c) Practicality (which is what answers your question). You don't need a syringe, spoon, knife, bill, bong or lighter, not even another recipient, to start binging on booze. Once you buy/steal the stuff, you're all set - and drinking something definitely IS more 'natural' (as in, it's a reflex) than injecting or smoking something.
Shit, man. WHY did you have to bring this up...
Those.nails.ruin.everything.
Because they are such a tiny AND unprotected minority, they are fairly easy targets for othering / discrimination.

Reminds me of Finkelstein's wise words...I can't exactly remember his wording, but you can easily find the video in Peertube.
He said something to the effect of : In almost all places in the world, it's wise to ideologically separate a people from its government...except in !$ra€| because a) civil institutions are so deeply intertwined with the military, and b) the majority of the people do, indeed, support the government's genocidal policies...
I love Lemmy.
