AI was going to solve so that was worth a trillion dollars.

Wages. The problem AI is designed to solve is paying wages.

Really?

They're already regulating American tech companies into oblivion in their markets. So, eventually, yes.

When did the US explicitly tell them to seize control of Nexperia?

The fact that this defect managed to proliferate through their entire fleet of 6000+ aircraft sold to major carriers ought to show you that they're well on their way!

Looks like they got lucky.

Me: A program you wrote suddenly started exhibiting bad behavior. Comment?

You: Hummina, Hummina, Hummina.....let me investigate first.

Me: You are obviously complicit in some nefarious endeavor, and you are obviously guilty.

The Unix and Linux equivalents just do not have the tools needed to scale the way the Windows active directory tools do. There's no reason why those tools couldn't be built but it's a classic catch-22 where there isn't enough demand so nobody's going to spend the money but there will never be enough demand because the tools aren't there so it can't get anywhere.

I think that if you ever do see Linux on the desktop in Mass it'll be because Europe does it in order to get away from Microsoft because of rising international tensions. Basically you need nation states to step in for national security reasons because businesses aren't going to do it especially with Microsoft's typical antitrust violations hanging over their heads like a sword of Damocles.

You might be able to turn that around if America and other countries would strictly enforce antitrust law but that's just not in the cards. So regular market forces and competition are basically useless here because they have been completely undermined and eliminated

Europe is still dependent on Russian oil and gas especially during winter. This was by design it was supposed to create an interdependency that would moderate Russia's extremism and eventually lead to them becoming a proper Democratic state. It didn't work because dictators go really fucking crazy especially in their old age. Dictators are often extremely incompetent at everything except violence and holding power.

And they implicate Trump in pedophilia and child rape. We learned that from the Epstein file leaks we already have.

We all had a good laugh about Jeffrey Epstein talking about Donald Trump giving Clinton a blowjob but that was obviously just an exaggeration for a fact. The real takeaway is that Jeffrey Epstein knew that Trump had compromat in the hands of Vladimir Putin and the Russian government.

It's painfully obvious that Epstein didn't kill himself. He had a ton of leverage against the president of the United States and would have been expecting to get a pardon out of that.

I don't think the details are relevant the takeaway here is that the ruling elites fuck kids a lot and we have to decide whether or not that's a problem or not.

Because there's a whole shitload of people who take the attitude of "if there's grass on the field play ball" which is exactly as disgusting as it sounds. And some of those people are probably family members of ours.

Because there is no Central authority for open source software it's basically impossible to get good administrative tools for it.

So for example it becomes really really hard to enforce document labeling for different classes of document at different security levels for your company.

This is before we talk about the mess that is active directory equivalence under linux.

I don't really see any solution. Maybe if Microsoft wasn't able to do all the antitrust violations so that a company could come along and build up Linux into something but every time anyone tries to that all gets shut down by buyouts and mergers and other nasty little tricks.

Xi is absolute dictator of China now. So they can easily quell any social unrest with violence.

That's why you're seeing this now. It's because the elites of China have control of the situation whereas before they didn't

Stepped in and prevented companies from automating factory jobs in order to prevent social unrest. Now that Xi is an absolute dictator they're not as concerned as they used to be and they are moving to automate.

I've said it before but if you Google you will find an article about how 70% of middle class jobs in America got taken by automation since 1980.

Automation has devoured the middle class. We can't do anything about it because there really isn't a solution.

Nobody is going to redistribute wealth because that feels bad. If you take money from me to give it to somebody else that just feels awful and if you do it to somebody who's rich most people think you're going to do it to them next. It doesn't help that there is a shitload of propaganda reinforcing these ideas.

How many people here are chomping at the bit to had more means testing to government programs? It's basically lizard brain. It doesn't feel fair that you have to go to work and somebody else doesn't.

That's another major problem we are going to have a huge disparity where you have people we need to do work and people who we just don't have any work for. We are going to have tens of millions of basically useless people.

Traditionally when this happens it's accompanied by food shortages but technology has solved that. So now the work itself is the limited resource.

I really don't know any solution and I think we're just going to have a giant world war eventually going nuclear possibly or even probably wiping out our species. Happy to be proven wrong though.

Maybe don't quote where the guy says you should punch trans girls in the balls... I'm just saying.

There is no equivocating here. The man called for violence. The fact that he wanted cops to come and do the violence first doesn't change the fact that he said that when the cops won't come and do the violence you should do the violence yourself. This is classic stochastic terrorism.

America does this too and our police will arrest you for it. The difference is they won't charge you with a speech crime because it's tough to make those stick.

Instead they'll do a little bit of extra investigation and odds are they will find something they can charge you with conspiracy to commit such and such with.

This is becoming a major problem because the people at the FBI and other agencies in charge of finding violent lunatics and getting them arrested before they do violent lunatic things are currently spending all their time arresting illegal immigrants. Arrests for crimes unrelated to immigration have dropped from 44,000 per year to 11,000 per year. Meanwhile 3/4ths of the immigrants being arrested for deportation do not have any criminal record and the majority of the ones with the criminal record have minor things like traffic infractions...

This is important and relevant to the discussion here because we have devoted resources that would normally be catching potential shooters and cr violent crazy people and getting those guys under control to non-violent immigrants. Meanwhile if your goal is to deport immigrants Trump is doing less of that because he's incompetent. One of the dirty little things the Democrats don't like to talk about is that Joe Biden and Barack Obama deported more illegal immigrants than Trump has ever during the same time frames...

Like it or not you need to keep your crazies under control. You can do that however you want but if you don't do it you're going to get a large increase in mass shooting incidents. You can't keep letting people encourage acts of violence in countries with little or no mental health services without consequences

There's still an active export market for Canadian oil, and the whole point of this action is to address outrage in the Western provinces over stagnation being forced on them by Ottawa. Expanding oil production and exports has nothing to do with "ceding ground to other countries".
