New: Joe Rogan is shocked when Perplexity AI CEO Aravind Srinivas explains how Bill Gates tricked all of America into becoming office workers: SRINIVAS: “Microsoft built this concept of the office worker because they wanted to sell office software.” ROGAN: “Wow. This type of lifestyle is a very recent thing that we’ve just now accepted as normal.” SRINIVAS: “It was the mission of Bill Gates to put a PC on every desk and get people glued to them.” ROGAN: “What a freaking wizard. Boy did they nail that one.” SRINIVAS: “It wasn’t about making computing beautiful like the vision Steve Jobs had. All they cared about was selling computers so they could sell software. When you sell more software that’s when you become rich.” ROGAN: “They’re so sneaky man.” SRINIVAS: “That’s why we all got trained into using Microsoft Word and Excel. Once you learned that then you could work for a company that has a PC on their desk who’s paying Microsoft money to use software.”

Jeremy Clarkson’s Farm show on Amazon is the most radicalizing piece of mainstream media I’ve ever seen Just one example (bear with me): Badgers became a protected species in Britain 40 years ago. The population has exploded and now frequently transmits tuberculosis to cows But farmers can’t cull the badger population to protect their cattle because the government still considers them to be endangered Instead of addressing the root cause, the UK has the most batshit testing regime for cattle There’s no TB vaccine. So the cattle have to get tested. The vets administering the test have to measure welts on the cows neck. Whether a cow lives or dies comes down to a vet trying to discern 1mm on a caliper (reactive vs non reactive). If a cow tests positive, the farm (already running on super thin margins) is quarantined and starts hemorrhaging money. Jeremy Clarkson’s cow (pregnant with twins) has an inconclusive test so it’s separated from the herd. It receives a second inconclusive test so they have to kill it (before it can give birth to the twins). Now here’s the kicker: the autopsy reveals no sign of TB. It was a healthy cow needlessly killed So - silver lining the farm should be removed from quarantine, right? WRONG - it’s still under quarantine and has to keep testing and can’t sell its beef Kafkaesque doesn’t even begin to describe how f’d up it is for British farmers
