As anything with el Bunko or his alleged administration behind it, look out for the return flow of money into his pockets. I'll presume it is there until it is proven otherwise.

Growing up in Buffalo, our next door neighbor would always put in a skating rink, wood frame, polyethylene liner. It was great, we played hockey all winter long.

Now, you'd be silly thinking you get any decent spell of cold enough weather in Buffalo for that skating rink.

Another data point, bugs that didn't use to inhabit Michigan have discovered it is now warm enough in the winter to not freeze off their little hinies, so now they are ready to go come spring for all those nice fruit trees.

The fish in the Atlantic north of the equator have decided to vote with their fins and move north. Fishermen along the East Coast complain they must now use more petrol chasing their asses north in order to catch them.

Tropical diseases have been moving north in the U.S.

Now, don't forget, global warming is a hoax perpetrated by Haitian immigrant pets trying to eat Ohioans. I hear they like to roast them with a delicate seasoning on the barbie before chowing down.

Bloomberg is reporting that Asian stocks have rebounded this morning, and that rebound seems be from shift investment portfolios somewhat (only somewhat) away from AI stocks. A similar mood seems to be apparent on Wall Street where NASDAQ futures are up 8/10 %.

It would seem this is not the AI apocalypse but rather some cold feet towards companies that have massive capital expenditures on AI. Elmo's government supported company has lost some steam also. Fascism is fascinating for its adherents.

Actual experts don't need "references" to back up their knowledge, because they know it.

By requiring "citation needed' Wikipedia has become Midwitpedia, and Midwits will always push actual experts out in favor of those who parrot whatever the "references" say. This is why it's become increasingly worthless for any subject that's remotely controversial.

The current insanity is the inevitable result of Enlightenment thinking. It's not possible to stop at 1970s liberalism, because there must always be "progress" toward complete insanity.

The Enlightenment and its "liberal" offshoot were based on lies and could never come to any other end.

This is why the next decade or two will be the time of rolling back everything to pre-Enlightenment ideals. Nothing good can ever come of them.

It seems pretty obvious that Hunter Biden intentionally left it there hoping that it would be released to the "trusted media" and that would keep his dad out of the White House. Because he knew what his dad was like.

Except the "trusted media" wanted Trump out., so they intentionally buried it.

It's both. Most "journalists" these days just regurgitate press releases, and AI can do that faster at a much lower cost.

Yes, exactly. The "directly" makes it clear that there'll be no privacy when they want to track everything "indirectly" later.

It's all so tiresome.

It does demonstrate the problem with "misinformation" though. Some people will continue to insist it was true even years after it was proven false.

> We're just regulating the things social media forces users to see when they haven't asked for it.

I don't want to see "trusted News" on social media and have deliberately not followed any of them. Apparently any Briton who feels the same way will now have it forced on them.

My mother-in-law spends all day watching "trusted News", which is why she has absolutely no idea of what's going on in the world.

> The talent pools are bimodal, you have a small pool of extremely talented people that carry the weight of the org, and enormous swaths of seat warmers.

To be fair, that may just be Pareto's Rule: 20% of the people do 80% of the work.

You know that it's not true! They're extremely understaffed in their legal department, they don't have enough lawyers to sue their customers for license violations.

Putin stole my socks.

I curse him every time I open the tumble dryer and find he's stolen another one.

There's no need for "journalists" now AI can do the job just as well.

Where do you think they got the AI training data?
