Pay the bounty.

The two other possible outcomes are Nightmare Eclipse (she's really on a roll!) or 0day sales on DNM's.

It doesn't even matter whether a decision to fix is made.

Gosh, you'd think $GOOG was broke.

The restrictions are a mix of reasonable nuisance management and paranoia about who is flying drones, what they can do, and chain of custody.

Beijing proper is a city with a population density of over 21,000 / km^2 -- so you can imagine the chaos if any tech enthusiast resident could fly a drone without a permit. Except for a couple of free zones in the outer boroughs, New York City restricts drone launcing and landings within the city to flights with a permit and flight plan, because otherwise the sky would be black with drones. Many cities -- both red and blue -- have zone restrictions for drone flights, and those currently hosting World Cup matches have tightened them for the duration of the tournament.

I am not American. Most of my friends would probably be prepared to pay extra to NOT have AI on their phone, and only use a camera to scan QR codes.

I do use a Samsung phone with the ability to write dimensions on photos of equipment, but other than that, mostly use it to phone. I am still on the 2022 model, which was bought for me as a present.

What I really want, and would pay a fair price for today, is a properly supported Linux phone. (Hierarchical Drop-down menus, no icons). With the option to run OpenBSD on it.

It's important to realize that the so-called far-left Democrats idealize Bolshevism while the far-right Republicans idealize Fascism, both of which are forms of Big Government Socialism.

So if the Democrats are in power and they want to increase the size and scope of government the Republicans will go along with it 80% of the time. Because they know they will eventually be back in power and have more tools of power to control.

They will balk the other 20% of the time so they still have something to run on and false promises to make to their voters.

The powerful parasite class is corrupt as hell regardless of jersey and they only care about staying in power. So if it's endless wars to get bribes from the MIC or poisons in the food supply to get bribes from Pharma or Big Chem it doesn't matter, that get passed.

That's why we have two-tiered courts, warrantless spying, usury, rigged elections, poisoned foods, endless wars, completely failed schools, satanic pedophiles getting pardons, crashing wages, nondischargable debt, unaffordable healthcare, food, housing, etc.

The vast majority of voters in any party want the opposite of that but are told to vote for "the lesser of two evils" which admits to an inherently evil system.

The Framers constructed a system of subsidiarity but that's long gone, its vestiges only permitted to prevent a real Revolution.

> Vote accordingly.

The only thing they fear is an election where nobody participate because they know they're screwed regardless of outcome.

After that real change has a chance of happening but it's never comfortable.

Military software development comes with lots of restrictions and the security guys never explain anything, they just tell you what to do or not to do and that is it.

It's all well and good until Lore steals Data's emotion chip.

The scheme I'm seeing the game theory people put out:

1. IPO to pay off the investors (political oligarchs)
2. Fear monger about China.
3. Bubble bursts.
4. Nationalize all the massive new data centers "to stop China".
5. Hand over the data centers to the "National Security State" now merged with a tiny violent Middle East colony.
6. Turn the apparatus inward to implement the AI Surveillance Police State (ASPS).
7. Blackmail the Boomers to send control eastward.

It's worth defending against even if the odds are low.

Are these the glasses the Visitors wore in V: The Miniseries?

Definitely not something a human would wear.

Do any adults actually use Snap? I thought it was just kids. Kids who have a few grand laying around these days?

Maybe they'll pair with an absurd Commodore flip phone.

On the other hand we may be seeing Malicious Compliance from Snap workers. If so, well played.

Or there are no workers and some LLM is running the whole thing.

So many possible ways this went horribly wrong.

As a UK Boomer, let me say "We already wanted Starmer out". Now the young ones have good reason to do the job.

Firefox Focus is best

HTC phones from OEM don't come with Unit 8200 APT implants so they're inferior?

Trump recently said that True MAGA is whatever Mark Levin is saying so I'm trying to steelman.

Or StealMan in this case?

"cannot draw general conclusions based on concepts presented explicitly in a text"

Wow, that would explain a lot.

But it goes further, the vocabulary of school age kids is shrinking also.

Adult Education is an even bigger problem in the US and EU. All these millions of useless immigrants who cannot speak, read or write a local language need mandatory training and if they fail, then they should be deported.
