They're guilty, they knew it and still pushed forwards with bad policies. They don't provide ANYTHING that can't be replicated quickly of from a competitor. Sick the dogs on them and let the lawyers feast. Maybe a class action AI is the correct method ? /s

This is the GAME that made PC gaming. I'm still running/making Doom/Doom2 wads and pk3 at 57. Just finished a new map by a 15 year old that wasn't born when the game was made. I'd say it had an impact on the WORLD. I'd be happy with the soundtrack as a requiem.

Said "Billionaires" will spend far more $$$ in political "donations" to avoid the 1 time tax. Just pay 10% on your earnings like the rest of us.

Radar O'Reilly radioed in...He wants his Korean era military issue glasses back. He left them on your mom's nightstand.

Another over reaction based on politics and parent apathy. Rather than be involved in your kids life and supervise the online issues, we'll just block ALL online activity. Scientist have been convinced that youth brains were being "rewired" but have failed to find any proof. It's not the electronic activity that is hurting them, its' the LACK of responsible social interaction. They grow up lacking a conscience or empathy because they never see other "real" people or suffer consequences for their bad interactions.

I miss BANGG!

For the young folks...Us ancients would pack up our rigs, and drive to some shitty venue and shoot the F out of each other in the conference room. Standing up and pointing at the guy you just head shot, shouting "BOOM" is way more fun socially.

All those great corporations and TexA$$ still makes less than half the money California does. Having lots of large corporations just means your politicians are giving out tax breaks on your dime. Those same corporations will move in 2 years to where the NEXT tax break is. The Mega-Corps are extra-national moving assets around to avoid taxes...Apple comes to mind. They paid Ireland so little the EU complained..

(No. I'm not congratulating you on that. I'm wafting the stench away. You can smell San Fran-Shit-N-Go from Yuma now.)

No that's Wellton you are smelling. SF smells like fish not cow shit.

Large corporations are leeches not contributors. The only true measure is GDP. California's is approximately TWICE what Texas claims. In fact it takes Texas AND New York to beat California. If we could ensure these corporations actually paid taxes things might even out.

"I think American's don't understand that the US has slowly gone overboard with things like AI that don't fit the values of other countries."

LOL This shit doesn't fit the value of any country, unless its' a country club for Billionaires. I'm from the US and we are OFF the RAILS here, but things
are going to starting happening NOW....

I've a friend who runs one of those Gazillion $$$ combines. He's said it before," I NEED air conditioning, and GPS. Everything else is BS."
We were talking about the BS JD pulls and his comment seemed to fit this room. I don't know anything about farming or tractors but that stuck in my head.

Some genius needs to have an AI code an AI tool to manage AI's usage of AI tokens. Aight ?

The ban on private individuals is a bad idea...

Private individuals, PI's, Skip Tracers and reporters SHOULD be able to use such software freely. Police, and the Government NEED to provide reasonable suspicion to a court and get a writ.
This kind of tool can be incredibly useful, or incredibly invasive. The real question is who(m?) do you trust as the gate keeper. I'd nominate the EU data protection people but there is no agency or entity in
the US I'd trust not to monetize the data regardless of law.

I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the reccomendation.

I can remember seeing those in the theatre, after standing in line for hours. Star wars made a huge impact on my childhood. One of my best childhood memories is with my now deceased uncle seeing Empire Strikes Back. Like many I was terribly disappointed by the later Star Wars episodes. I've not even seen any of the "new" stuff. Actually Revenge of the Sith is the last movie I saw. She will be missed.
