[QUOTE="Clint_L, post: 9468460, member: 7035894"] Okay, so I assume the clothes that you are wearing are all handcrafted, or made by you or your spouse? Because there are artisans who you could be supporting, instead of buying factory made stuff, which is produced thanks to algorithms that emulate patterns developed by humans. Automation always costs jobs and emulates skills and creativity previously exclusive to human workers. And I actually don't think there is much of moral argument to be made that the printing press was not good for society. Are you picking and choosing which automation to be outraged about? See above. I'm assuming that you eat your dinner off plates that you made yourself, or directly paid the people who did? 'Cause you can, you know. My spouse makes and sells pottery. I get that you are a very narrowly focused moral absolutist on this particular technology, but calling someone's SO a "thief", twice, is crossing the line. [/QUOTE]
