🇺🇲 Explore the intriguing history of the Ford Edsel—a car that captivated the automotive world with its bold design and innovative features! Introduced in 1956, the Edsel was envisioned as a revolutionary addition to the American automobile market.
🎩 Edsel was a division and brand of automobiles that was produced by the Ford Motor Company. Named after Edsel Ford, the son of company founder Henry Ford, the Edsel was intended to fill the gap between Ford and Mercury, offering consumers a new level of luxury and sophistication. With its distinctive styling and advanced engineering, the Edsel was poised to make a splash in the competitive automotive landscape.
🚘 Despite high expectations and extensive marketing campaigns, the Ford Edsel faced numerous challenges upon its release. Its unconventional design, characterized by a unique grille and distinctive "horse collar" front bumper, divided opinion among consumers and critics alike.
⚙️ Under the hood, the Edsel boasted a range of powerful engines and innovative technologies, including the "Teletouch" automatic transmission and "E-475" V8 engine. However, production delays and quality control issues tarnished its reputation in the eyes of consumers, leading to disappointing sales figures.
💔 The launch of the Ford Edsel on "E-Day" in September 1957 remains one of the most highly anticipated events in automotive history. Despite the initial hype, the Edsel failed to resonate with buyers, leading to its discontinuation in 1960 after just three model years.
🌟 Although the Ford Edsel may not have achieved commercial success, it remains a fascinating chapter in the annals of automotive history, showcasing the risks and challenges inherent in innovation and design.

🇺🇲 Dive into the past with the IBM WatchPad, an early glimpse into the future of smartwatches!
⌚️ Back in June 2000, IBM unveiled a groundbreaking prototype—a wristwatch powered by Linux. Initially boasting just 6 hours of battery life, this tech marvel was later upgraded to a respectable 12 hours, featuring 8 MB of RAM and running on Linux 2.2.
⚙️ As innovation surged, so did the WatchPad's capabilities. With additions like an accelerometer, vibrating mechanism, and fingerprint sensor, IBM teamed up with Citizen Watch Co. to unleash the ultimate wearable tech—the "WatchPad 1.5". Sporting a 320 × 240 QVGA monochrome touch-sensitive display and running Linux 2.4, it also packed calendar software, Bluetooth, 8 MB of RAM, and 16 MB of flash memory.
💰 With hopes of targeting students and businessmen alike, Citizen set the retail price around $399, making the WatchPad a tantalizing glimpse into the future of wearable tech. Would you have splurged on this piece of history?

Anti-AI is kind of like being annoyed by the "Made in America" tag.
What I mean by that is this: manufacturers who have their products made in US prisons against the will of those making it can label it "Made in America"; manufacturers who have their products made in Guam by deeply abused and very poorly paid workers whose ability to physically leave those jobs is nebulous at best, can label it "Made in America". People *THINK* "Made in America" means made with the protections of US labor laws by workers paid to US Wage standards, but it absolutely does not mean that, and the ways in which it conflates something very bad with something better is very much By Design.
People who know about this stuff are justifiably pissed off about it, and near-on everyone who finds out about it ALSO becomes pissed off about it and starts to see that label in a different light, but if you started ranting about how much you hate the "Made in America" tag in your local Walmart, heaping abuse on ppl for buying goods which have it, most everyone there would think you were off your rocker.
People who are against ~AI Art~(it's neither of those things, actually, which is why I put it in tildes) aren't wrong; it's just that most people have opinions shaped by capitalist media pushing capitalist opinions and capitalists are the ppl bankrolling the current ~AI~ fad, so they have no idea how fucked up it is. The same way they are kept from knowing that "Made in America" on their t-shirt very likely means "Made by Enslaved Labor".
Are these people wrong for being mad about ~AI Art~? No.
Is it wrong to tell someone to kill themselves because they used an image generator to make a picture of a cat? Yes.
Educate, don't harass.

Finally sat down and watched The Sopranos from start to finish. Holy shit, that ending. I was so confused for about 20 seconds then I realized what happened.
And the more I thought about it, the harder it hit until I was literally crying. They really don't make TV like that anymore.
