Humans invent ever more ways to F up Earth.

Ukraine is slowly losing land. Russia is slowly winning land. Both are quickly losing people.

Why not cut human loss? Ukraine, with neutral parties assisting them, could calculate what land they will likely lose. They then hand some of that land over as a ceasefire sweetener. That land would have changed hands anyway, but now both sides save lives.

Once the fury of war dissipates, better sense takes hold on both sides, and the war ends.

I don't think there has ever (2025? 1925? 1625?) been much expectation of privacy, when canoodling amongst a crowd of thousands ...

So; much hand-wringing that we "use that tech to make those we feel have violated the social contract pay publicly for their transgressions".

There is already zero legal penalty for violating one of the most core of the contracts we can enter into as a human. So what do you suggest now? That the guilty forget how to blush? That the rest of us refuse to recognise irony when we see it?

I actually admire the woman for visibly retaining the instinct of shame. She, for one, has not forgotten how to blush. The guy, I don't know.

Can I come visit you? I promise I won't snore.

Maybe Ukraine hackers can frame bunches of Russian military commanders. Put gay S&M Putin AI porn on all their desktops.
