       @jaelisp The pandemic also created an always-on culture. I fucking hated it, caused huge stress because the new normal became people expecting me to work at 7pm.

       @jaelisp a pound of butter in early 1900 was 70 cents. Your typical blue collar (factory) worker at that time made 25c an hour. So would take about 3 hours of work to afford a pound of butter.(source: https://www.thepeoplehistory.com/20sfood.html)Compare that with today where the average cost of butter is 4.6$. The average factory workers pay is 16$ an hour.So today working for only 20 minutes will buy you the same food that 100+ years ago would require 3 hours to earn.Looks to me like modern technology **did** make it so you can work fewer hours compared to a hundred years ago. Its just that no one wants to live like they did 100 years ago. They would rather live a **better** life and work the same number of hours. Go figure.

       @jaelisp Fuck AI.Support workers by supporting unions.THATS how we will get a 4 day work week and much more.The only thing majority of AI is being used for now is to do more harm than good to our society and our planet, being influenced by the corrupt monsters who think they are our betters.
