Verified, so that’s clearly him. Ask him why his dad was in Dallas when JFK was shot.
Ah yes, the Fourth Amendment right to drive a vehicle while intoxicated. You could argue that the Founders were referring to horses and buggies, but clearly the spirit of the law was that it should be legal to get intoxicated and operate any mode of transportation. We’ll see how that airline pilot’s case goes, though. I’m worried that his right to fly drunk will be infringed.
Maybe the word “directly” didn’t translate well. If Russia engages NATO directly, their forces will be wiped off the map. Ukraine is using old NATO equipment from the 90s that was pulled out of storage and kicking all kinds of Russian ass. Direct NATO involvement would mean carrier groups, F35s, stealth bombers, and a whole lot of other fun things the Russians have zero answer for.
Like so many other American things, imperialist exploitation has been largely privatized and handled by colossal megacorps.
Honestly, turning timber into liquid was never a viable business model. The use cases for a liquid form of wood are almost nonexistent outside of bizarre hobbies or fetishes I’d frankly rather not know about.
Can Brazilian courts start making rulings for the rest of the world? They are on fire lately.
If a device can start listening when you say, “Hey Siri,” it can also start listening when you say other words.
Who could possibly imagine Google and Facebook doing something unethical, then lying about it?
”In most moments of the day, there’s a smart device in within two-inch radius of us. That means a smart device is likely within earshot when we talk about our plans for the weekend, how badly we need our kitchen remodeled, or which SUV model is best for the family with our spouse, and so much more,” the company wrote.
Facebook and Google swear they cast it into the fire, because they don’t want to take away your privacy to make money. Do you believe them?
Traditional instruction gave the same result as a bleeding edge ChatGPT tutorial bot. Imagine what would happen if a tiny fraction of the billions spent to develop this technology went into funding improved traditional instruction.
Better paid teachers, better resources, studies geared at optimizing traditional instruction, etc.
Move fast and break things was always a stupid goal. Turbocharging it with all this money is killing the tried and true options that actually produce results, while straining the power grid and worsening global warming.
The fundamental question is, “Do you trust Facebook?” They have the resources to manipulate the story and twist the truth. They have the capability to spy on you with mics, but they say they don’t do so. Do you trust them?
“Meta does not use your phone’s microphone for ads and we’ve been public about this for years,” the statement read. “We are reaching out to CMG to get them to clarify that their program is not based on Meta data.”
Ah, yes. The tried and true defense of “we’ve denied it for years and continue to deny it” must be credible coming from a source as trustworthy as Facebook. I hear they’re planning on holding a press conference to pinky swear they’re not listening to the microphone they demand access to in order to show you ads that make them money.
That phenomenon isn’t exclusive to AI. A societal structure where a minuscule number of people amass all wealth and see themselves as gods is an inherently evil system.
Everything they do and everything they create is a means to increase their wealth and power at the expense of everyone else. At the expense of the planet itself. Regulators, courts, the government, and every other institution become captured vehicles that exist to increase their wealth and power. The people are made poorer and poorer while being distracted by bread and circuses.
The only war is class war.
Yeah, there has to be a response to this. The Russians will continue to escalate their war crimes if there are not consequences. Weapons free Ukraine.
“So, you said you’re auditing the class. Why are you so interested in learning German?”
“Uhh… memes. You can tell they’re fire, but I can’t read them.”
Exactly. China doesn’t need to start a war to take Taiwan. Win an election one time, then aggressively change the rules to keep your party in power permanently.
“Wait… you just pass a law and women can’t talk? Call the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society. We have the final solution.”
This is likely what’s going to happen with Taiwan and China eventually.
Ukraine needs to be allowed to go weapons free in Russia proper, destroy their air defenses, then start hitting refineries and other high value targets throughout Russia and especially near Moscow. Then, peace talks can be productive.
