yes!! Reading about the Cockroach Party, I would say that they align with the values of punk subcultures. Activism, saying "fuck you" to politicians who don't stand for the people, rejecting mainstream culture by dressing in ways that aren't considered "normal" (such as cockroach costumes), speaking loud and proud about what everyday people need and want, standing up for women's rights... Sounds punk to me

This is lovely Jacob!! Do you think you'll offer prints at all? I collect postcards and I'd love to have this one to inspire a better future

I didn't think about that... thank you!! I can definitely get my hands on an old cellphone.

No, but it's not the energy use I'm talking about (though I'll do some research on video games now, there's always more for me to learn!) - I'm referring to the water usage. The average ChatGPT session (with multiple queries) is the equivalent of destroying roughly a bottle of water. But if we are thinking about power, data centers also run diesel powered generators when there's a high demand for queries which spew out pollution. And then its worth considering that each data center as a whole is pretty awful, and if there were less demand for them, i.e. people not using genAI, the CEOs would be motivated to make them less shitty... every query shows them that, yeah, this IS a great idea and they should build more data centers :/

I don't mean to like make you feel bad for making a quick tl;dr using AI, it's just that this is pretty important to me! We all have to pick and choose our battles, but of all the things we do in our day-to-day lives that impact the environment and the world around us, typing up our own summary instead of using AI seems like a really easy option to me.

thank you for being honest about it but please remember that each and every AI query is absolutely devastating to the environment!! It's pretty easy to just type up a quick summary (or let someone else do it) rather than do that damage

oooh very useful, thank you! I am hella broke (like rationing my SNAP money broke) but I'd quite like to get into this hobby

May this man rot in hell, and may people like him who are still around live in agony and loneliness.

Unironically, reading this made me so inspired I got really emotional. An internet of the community for the community. This whole post is beautifully written <3
