You don't get to define your political ideology, I DO!

Parent has a good point. Crypto is good for things other than money laundering. It is also good for tax evasion and as a form of gambling.

The stated goal of the EU is not what you are describing. Tech sovereignty is not about purity, it is about independence. That does not mean they will cut off all ties with American tech, it just means that for certain core technologies they do not want to be fully dependent on American firms handling their data.

100% of them are insurrectionists.

If leftists always lose then why does political power so frequently oscillate between liberals and conservatives?

Oh, I see, you are describing the world as you want it to be, not as it is. You have decoupled from reality. Intellectually, that makes you indistinguishable from an idiot or an insane person.

Since when did Donald Trump become the woke left?

Become Redhat? Seems like they are still pursuing that dream, albeit with contributions to the Linux ecosystem that are much less useful.

You are the first person I have seen who actually bought into that line of bullshit. It is probably more accurate to say that /. has no active developers and will just keep rolling with their 25 year old Perl scripts as long as they work.

It might work. I might not. But it is a possible solution to a problem that we have no idea how to fix, and there aren't many other solutions being floated about.

If you think the problem starts and ends with LLMs, then you're fooling yourself. This is about automation, and LLMs are just a part of that. What do we do when we have fully autonomous trucks? Do you know how many people depend on truck driving for a decent income? We're already working on having robots unload those trucks, manage warehouses, etc.

If something can be automated for less than the cost of a human doing it, that thing will be automated. We've known this for a long time, but the panic only began recently because LLMs threatened white collar jobs.

Did you ever ask yourself why you ask stupid questions as a way of trying to defend the most corrupt president in U.S. history?

I'm not sure that you had a point in this garbled nonsense of a post. The only thing you achieved is demonstrating that you're functionally illiterate.

It is creepy as hell how quickly you freaks coalesce around you fallacious talking points.

There is no contradiction. Trump Mobile hired a cheap third party incapable of doing the work properly and failed to ensure that the work was adequate. That does not absolve them of blame, that places the blame squarely on Trump Mobile.

It says something that you assume that just because Republicans have traditionally argued that state rights are fundamental to their platform that somehow Democrats were ever anti-state rights.

The problem with the Democratic policy positions is they have nuance and idiots do not understand nuance.

There are many different cultures among the wealthy, just as there are many cultures among the poor. So culture is not the distinguishing factor, as you originally claimed. Wealth, however, is.
