I just tried to sign up for “the chance” to buy System of a Down tickets at the Rose Bowl parade next year and in order to do that I had to consent to all the privacy whatever crap which I did not do, and then it prompted me to turn my phone camera on and take a picture of my face to confirm im a biological human.
I understand bots are a problem but this is an even bigger problem. Fuck that shit, no fucking way.
Calling it now. We’re five years away from penis inspections to order food online. Inspections plural.
At the rate we’re going everyone will be forced to have an AI avatar based on an absolutely incredible amount of data about you, in a public private partnership between the government and one of 3 approved AI vendors. Only the avatar will be allowed to access the Internet or any government services and you will have to pay for it yourself at great personal expense. The Republicans will put forth this policy, the Democrats will pass it only if underprivileged minority business owners are allowed to claim the fee as a tax exemption, and everyone will claim it as some massive victory.
If you’re a small business owner in a disadvantaged neighbourhood and you received a Pell Grant and you pass a monthly penis inspection, you deserve a tax break.
“But can’t I just use my digital penis inspection avatar? That’s how I buy groceries and get on a plane.”
No. You will appear at the nearest military base like everyone else.
This is why we
yo don’t give them ideas
I’m reading Simulacra and Simulation right now and it’s crazy how closely this maps onto “The regime of simulation is the regime of total control”
Just have someone take one for the team and share their dick pic for general use. History will remember the Universal Food Purchase Penis.
Finally. Unsolicited dick pic guys will be heroes.
OurTheir time in the sun has been a long time coming.
To use a public toilet almost definitely and we are already well past that when it comes to air planes.
New queerphobic investment opportunity!?
We will build public toilets that require a full body scan to confirm your assigned at birth gender.
Then the photos get uploaded to the cloud and sold to AI companies for training.I’m looking for 1 trillion dollars investment to get the company started (will be used for lobbying, not manufacturing). I think I’m onto something!!
Waiting for someone to tell you Dolmayan is a fascist, and the rest of the band are still in a band with him 🫣
damn i didn’t know that. i never even heard his name before, i just like their music, but that sucks ass.
If “musician” was my job/career and I had the opportunity to coast only on old stuff I wrote decades ago for good money, I would probably also be tempted to plug my nose and play the hits.
Wtf? I thought they kicked him out?!
system of a down supporting face identifying corporation to get more money? it’s more likely than you think.
more like System of a Sellouts
Dolmayan called Trump the “most attacked president in history yet the greatest friend to minorities” and calling the defunding of police “stupidity,”
lol jesus… welp… fuck… i guess i won’t be going to see them. fuck 'em
Yeah mans not too bright outside of the drum drum
Have you tried if the Death Stranding / Norman Reedus thing still works?
lol no, hadn’t heard of that, but that is freakin hilarious
Some have had success with
nice, that’s a good idea
Buy the tickets from scalpers at the marked up price. They won’t have any such limitations. Problem?
If you think being reminded that all privacy is an illusion and that you never had any to defend to begin with is a bigger problem than scalper bots you’re not a person who lives in the real world.
The purpose is to prove that you are the one operating your machine. Without face ID, anyone could be using your machine to buy tickets: your family, your partner, your roommate, etc etc. That was still a fig leaf of privacy, and now that’s taken away too.
I’d rather give Ticketmaster a picture of my genitalia than my face
