This is a love tap, fists will be thrown later. One thing can and should be done, we need to start adding aerosols into the atmosphere, the higher the better. Adding Na compounds to jet fuels would introduce just enough aerosols in order to start reflecting a tiny amount more of solar radiation than what makes it to the surface of the planet. 1-2% reflection is all we need to start reducing the temperatures. Of-course we will have to keep doing it until we figure out a more permanent solution.

Google is now adding more rules to make sideloading more difficult while Apple never provided a way to sideload an app in the first place. People need to be able to build and load their own apps without permission from the OS manufacturer, a phone is a computer with specialized hardware, we do have ability to build and run apps on our own hardware.

This is why when people say the market decides they are wrong. If you can't sway a companies positions or politics by refusing to shop there then there is no way the market decides anything.

The problem with the above is that you are mistaking "yourself" for "the market."

"Everyone isn't doing what I want them to, obviously 'the market' is broken."

Flock is not a single police officer standing on a street corner. Flock is a network of continuous data collection from every perspective on every road and intersection. Flock is not a camera, it is an AI system that follows you precisely everywhere, it is a data dump without a court order. There is expectation that a police officer will NOT follow you everywhere without a court order just because he is paid from taxes and has nothing better to do, this is stalking.

This kills me. Instead of a "simple" (I realize that e.g. a google search is not all that simple) database query, we have an LLM that does the query for you, then analyzes it, and redisplays the output (making it thousands of times more computationally expensive) but now you are suggesting that the chatbot control a VM or similar and perform the steps as if it were a human, adding millions of times more overhead. It's mind boggling.

Isn't cordyceps the fungal family that zombifies ants and other insects? Why anyone would want to promote something that maintains physical contact between living cordyceps and humans is beyond my comprehension.

Conspiracy theory: the "anyone" doing the promoting is already affected by the product they're hawking and it's trying to spread.
