I've been wondering for many years before the first traffic camera appeared, why the toll-roads aren't enforcing the speed limits automatically. The time you enter and exit the highway is recorded down to a second. The distance between these two points is known — your average speed could be computed on the spot even with the early 90-ies technology...

The polite police officers would be standing right behind the toll-booths issuing tickets without the drama of hiding in the bushes, then chasing you at highway speeds...

And, yeah, you could lower it by stopping at a rest area — but it'd still be a tremendous disincentive to speed.

I was and continue to hope, that such universal enforcement, affecting all voters, would cause the limits to go up to reasonable figures — or even be abolished completely...

I've run into these people, they're the worst

When have you last checked your compiler's output?

That's really important for the sperm destined for the septic system, sure...

Using AI is training AI to replace you. If you can be replaced with AI, you will be, and should be.

If you don't use AI, your peers will be, and you will be replaced by AI anyway.

Good Luck

So I don't play that type of game. Has anyone here played those, and had the gambling feeling over these loot boxes? The summary is rather damning, but I'd like the opinion of an adult gamer.

Lying to yourself is the biggest danger for trying to stay Anonymous. With enough patterns to recognize, the idea that one can hide is a delusional take.

The only way to win, is to run EVERYTHING you post through an AI that changes the tone and words used in all your online activity. But even then that may itself be a lie.

It's Not Enough to "Caution Against".

That language is TOO PASSIVE.

The correct and appropriate phrase is "HELL NO" and start tossing out 1st, 4th, 5th amendment claims IN COURT.

I read that and was simultaneously laughing and angry. I'd call it a load of horseshit, but that would be insulting to horseshit.

What a bunch of windbaggery. Meaningless, feckless corporate speak.

We know. They know we know. We know they know we know. They don't care.

Nothing says "fuck you" like a "well worded" press release. It was only missing the AI EM-DASH.

Climate is notoriously complex set of wild interactions that are unknown at best. Predictions of climate crisis have always been wildly off, because the goal is to scare people into action.

But the boy who cried wolf is a cautionary tale that climate people failed to learn.

It is a feature, not a bug!

But hey, lets claim incompetence and not malice even though they are indistinguishable at this point.

You forgot the obligatory "Get Off My Lawn!" .. so here it is.

And yes, BUTTONS and DIALS are best for drivers.

The alternative is voice and steering wheel controls, but I don't like either as much as dials and actual buttons.

"Progress!!!!"

They are training their replacement.

Just a wild ass guess though, but knowing efficiencies are always driven from the top, this is the primary likelihood.

William Shatner is a classically trained Shakespearean actor who appeared in festivals and on Broadway prior to switching from stage to television. His TOS enunciation and emphasis is due mostly to his experience with radio performances (which were over the top verbally) combined with directors on TOS constantly telling him to increase the astonishment. And in reality, wasn't anywhere near as pervasive or dramatic as the pop culture version that pokes fun at Kirk.
