We know what will happen in a world where there is no need for human labour. The 'elite' will build Terminators to eliminate most of the humans.
I doubt it. The elites have capital to invest in the means of production. Absent this they have no real power or purpose.
When you no longer need to pay countless thousands of people to perform a task this is a double edged sword. It not only means you can make do with less it means anyone else can step in and accomplish the same tasks without you.
"Blaming internet or some chatbot" makes perfect sense when the chatbot was programmed to manipulate people and it manipulated a 16 year old to commit suicide.
Chatbots are trained not programmed. If you have evidence OpenAI's chatbot was explicitly trained to manipulate people then FFS please don't keep it to yourself.
Every conversation with ChatGPT happens on OpenAI servers.
Every byte transmitted over the Internet goes over a telecommunications provider therefore telecommunications providers are responsible for everything.
They have complete control.
They have no such thing.
If Walmart sells a gun to a five year old, they cannot say, "Well, the five year old broke the law. Not our fault."
Selling guns to a five year old is itself illegal under the gun control act. Walmart would be breaking the law.
Gravity tends to clump stuff up.
But not the same way luminous matter (the "standard" stuff) clumps up. The mass distribution needed to explain spiral galaxies assumes that this "dark matter" remains at the periphery of the galaxy, keeping the rotational velocities constant as one moves away from the galactic center. So now, dark matter has to be something that doesn't interact with gravity (or curved space-time) the same way normal matter does. It curves space-time like normal matter does. But it isn't pulled into the gravity well (space time curve) toward the center of a galaxy the way other matter is.
Or, our model of gravity/space-time isn't quite right.
Laughing at your incompetent mendacity in Napolean, who also got his ass kicked by Russia, also without your help. You barely did anying in WWII; Russia did over 80% of the work of beating the Nazis, show some respect.
Even with Trump's help, russia will lose this one too.
Nothing can beat Russia short of nuclear weapons, but then the whole planet is dead you dumb fuck.
Election wasn't delayed and people went home in a couple of hours. It was a Boomer parade, not a coup - which is what many of them were literally charged with, illegal parading Only person killed was a protestor shot by a cop for no reason. You're a million megatons of incompetent BlueAnon bullshit.
1/6 was no more an insurrection than 9/8 was you dumb fuck.

They were slightly cheaper than Amazon for the same product, then I did a big project which got slightly downsized and I wound up with $400 in "restocking fees" for a couple of pieces of factory-hologram-tape sealed network gear, after I paid $100 in return shipping.
Learned my lesson real fast.
27% of the cosmos is not insignificant. Unless it is distributed very unevenly. So now your theory has to explain that.

Government subsidies often do lower prices. Looking, it seems that the actual operating prices are pretty opaque, couple of relevant paragraphs from wiki,
Électricité de France (EDF) – the country's main electricity generation and distribution company – manages the country's nuclear power plants.[62] In 2007 EDF was substantially owned by the French government, with around 85% of EDF shares in government hands.[63] 78.9% of Areva shares are owned by the French public sector company CEA and are therefore in public ownership. EDF remains heavily in debt. Its profitability suffered during the recession which began in 2008. It made €3.9 billion in 2009, which fell to €1.02 billion in 2010, with provisions set aside amounting to €2.9 billion.[citation needed] The Nuclear industry has been accused of significant cost overruns and failing to cover the total costs of operation, including waste management and decommissioning.[64][full citation needed][failed verification]
Though it seems the above may be out of date,
As of 2015, France's household electricity price, excluding taxation, is the 12th cheapest amongst the 28 member European Union and the second-cheapest to industrial consumers.[69] The actual cost of generating electricity by nuclear power is not published by EDF or the French government but is estimated to be between €59/MWh and €83/MWh.[70]
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... which also has other interesting info.
It probably is all around us, but does not interact with regular matter a lot.
It appears not to at solar system scales. Because we can plot the trajectory of a satellite to intercept an object beyond the orbit of Pluto without considering its effects. But at galaxy scales, it distorts the effects of gravity and galactic rotation sufficient to be easily observable.
Magic stuff, this dark matter. It knows when to be there and when not to.
Local CDNs do nothing for real time data (banking transactions, for example). But for the average bandwidth consumer, I suppose it doesn't matter where the TikTok chicks twerking originates from.
Ask Saddam Hussein how that went.
