I guess they don't walk around with a broomhandle Mauser like I do.

Pretty sure most LLMs are already a vector for strategically false and/or propagandistic and/or psychologically damaging responses based on their training data sources being the Internet.

You can only account for so many poisoned records before your accounting strategy displaces the actual data.

I can't wait for prices to update based on the individual walking by them, based on their social media profiles and other metadata filtered through some unknowable algorithm.

I doubt this will end any hype. Many people, having bought into something, are completely unable to accept when they've been fucked over. "Thank you sir, may I have another?"

Just, no.

I watched all of the reasonably available video of both the Alex Pretti and the Renée Goode killings. The descriptions you provide for both are just so wildly uncoupled from anything that can actually be seen in those videos that I wondered if I was losing my mind because I couldn't see what you said was "all on film from multiple angles."

After a quick sanity check (my Magic 8 Ball answered "My reply is no" to "Am I losing my fucking mind here?") I realized that your descriptions were derived not from the content of the videos directly, but passed through some intermediate process wherein you just described some alternative facts that agreed with your world view.

Were either or both of these dead people professional agitators? Probably not, but even if they both were, the guys who killed them did not respond in a manner consistent with their trainining, their agency procedures, or governing laws. The people who put those ICE/CBP agents in that situation, the current administration, will protect the shooters as long as it doesn't cost them anything, but a lack of consequences for doing the wrong thing doesn't mean it was the right thing.

I think we should install some Earth engines to push the planet to just the right orbital distance to make a year exactly 360 days. Additionally we should adjust earth's rotational attitude by bringing it in line with the solar ecliptic plane.

It would take all the money on the planet, and would kill trillions, but it's worth it to not have to deal with leap years or daylight savings ever again.

Probably. At some point many Americans became convinced that all the garbage they see on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc about things they deserve were actually true, and so now they simply believe that they deserve anything they want.

Russia probably just lost their supplier of Iranian-built drones.

I don't have to imagine this at all, because I've been on several flights that had more than one person watching something on their phone at full volume, because they're clearly socipaths. It'd be wonderful to not have to put up with that particular behavior disorder in that particular form while stuffed in an aluminum can at 40,000 feet for several hours.

Your implicit assumption is that all power plants are producing emissions. Right now, about 40% of power is generated by nuclear or renewables, so, you're definitely not right at the moment, and you're trending towards mostly wrong as few utilities think it makes sense to build out new fossil fuel fired power plants.

Intermittent renewables + battery storage is primarily what's being developed right now, and despite the current administration's assault on renewables, they still make the most sense to build out for a number of reasons.

It seems the stable genius' administration functions like a small child across the board.

Do you compare apples to oranges much?

Do you stop at the gas station that prices gas at $0.05 more per-gallon than other gas stations?

This is pretty much the most fucked up part about the current situation. I've got a job, a 401k, and an investment portfolio that's doing just fine. I'd rather it be the case that we try to bring the base quality of life up in this country rather than that the top .001% in the country squeeze everything out of the rest of us, so I didn't vote for Trump. As a result, I'm told I'm a leftist/socialist by some of my siblings.

My voting is more civic responsibility/ethics based, so apparently I'm not sane. I'm doing just fine in terms of income, savings, and quality of life, but I'm called deranged by people I know to have made and continue to make shitty life choices, as measured by the outcomes and their current quality of life and circumstances.

Back to the fucked up thing; Trump's base is exactly the people he's hurting the most, and they don't care to see it because they're more focused on elevating themselves by pushing someone else down, or are so into the Trump Cult of Personality that everything he says is taken as gospel.
