Open a porn site in Florida or Alabama, this is already and always has been happening. If we want to upend that precedent I'm not opposed but it is precedent already.

Federally managed mean "Congress passes laws" not an Executive Order.

Your representatives are there to represent the interests of the states in the Federal government.

Online vendors already have to work in that type of framework, different states have different taxes, different warranty laws, different regulations. Also making AI harder to sell is half the argument, maybe theres a good reason to make it harder

I'm sorry which party cut Medicare this year? Which party voted against school lunches? Which party is suing Tylenol? Which party decided on Biden's arrival in 2021 that the shots Trump (to his and Pences credit which Biden gave them in Dec 2020 and afterwards many times) were not bad?

Come on guy there's no way to both sides this, you don't have to do this.

It could, that's on you to make that argument not just speculate. It's not as though these countries don't also have vaccination schedules if you're born in Mexico you get a similar set of shots as you would in America. The entire world has access to these. Also if this was the case why wouldn't we be seeing similar outbreaks inside all these countries if everyone is just walking around unvaccinated. Why is it so concentrated in US/Ca/UK?

Quick to assume other nations are the savages but what if we actually are in our privileged hubris to second guess things other folks with less means would look at as an actual obvious thing. It's a position of wealth to say "fuck it, maybe diseases arent real after all"

Oh, of course how could i possibly forget, there's always a way for the liberals to be at fault. The President has no independent agency, we can, nay must, only judge him through the lens of his opposition (since we've already preloaded the idea they are just nutters to not be taken seriously). That whole measles thing in Samoa? Wasn't measles it was TDS!

Andrew Wakefield, the demon himself said Trump was "on our side" back in 2016.

Ever noticed how the fictional TV shows in Idiocracy, often incoherent nonsense that people can't stop watching, are basically the same as the AI slop we have today?

We're not going to be fighting an robot army, like in The Terminator or The Matrix, but a destruction of our humanity from within and of our own making.

Eh, I don't buy this was some inevitable thing or one regard as president means we have to discard the very good concept.

The first precedent on if vaccination could be compelled was 1905 and unofficially even before then. It has never been an issue until this guy, we just might have to learn a hard lesson for it to sink in again.

Without "government dictate" smallpox would still be a thing.

We've been putting shady spy shit into our "American made" products for 80 years, and famously caught doing it a few times too.

They're selling actual working hardware. But that hardware's value is significantly lower after 5 years, and almost zero after 10.

It will be time for all of us to prepare for a massive crash when forward markets pop up around AI hardware (think tulip mania). We're already seeing some serious red flags with businesses including their GPUs in their assets and taking loans on them.

How does any one of us survive a decade long recession? At an individual level, I don't think you can reliably do so. Ultimately people will have to relearn how to cooperate and come together and not be so damn greedy, not obsess about their standing in social media, and get back to the fundamentals.

The ones hit the hardest will be the luxury producers. I'm not talking about gold watches either. But online influences will suddenly find their payouts from YouTube and others have dried up when the marketing and advertising budgets are cut. Product reviewers won't be getting new products, because in a recession the best you can often do is just to keep making last year's products, and even so you might be cutting back in volume and completely removing the advertising budget.

The further we go down the wrong path, the bigger the correction. That's just how our economic system works, it's not centrally planned but it is manipulated by a few back actors for short-term profit. The consequence is the middle class watches their 401K get flushed down the drain.

Yeah, that was a big goof, thanks for understanding.

Apple is capable of hiring talented people and creating a useful product. They just don't seem to be capable of being user-friendly in the ways that matter to me. TBH they were never great at it, and MUGs did the heavy lifting in the customer relations department for them for free. Anyway I'm totally capable of believing their performance claims, to a reasonable point, especially when the results aren't putting them first.

I wish they were friendlier, because their hardware is reasonably impressive. I'm also just not in their target demographic apparently because I'd rather have a slightly thicker device with better cooling and battery capacity.

Snake oil?
I think you maybe don't know what snake oil is.

What NV is selling isn't snake oil in the slightest. Whether or not it's really needed is an entirely different discussion.
The bubble hypothesis would have you believe that they're selling Ferraris to people at the Ford dealership.
i.e., you can complain it's all a bubble, but you can't argue with the efficacy of NV GPUs at doing this job that may or may not actually be profitable.

You were good up until 5. The scenario necessarily precludes 5 by virtue of 1.

It's also about that hostile third-party being the Government that has jurisdiction over that company, which means it implicitly also includes backdoors (that could even be unknown to the manufacturer)
FTA:

Also to Doc Holliday.

China has a lot of large cities, a lot of trucking is probably just inside those areas where an electric truck can really shine and where that lack of emissions really makes a difference.

It's still a huge country and I wonder if they rely on long haul over-the-road trucking as much as the USA does or if they offload a lot of that to rail.
