The real enemy of evil criminals is TRUTH and even a flawed media has some truth. This is why they are at war with media, science, education, academics, facts, etc.

Every mistake, every lie from not being 100% perfect just allows them cover for people wanting to believe their lies and even 100% perfect, the audience makes more mistakes and will judge from their flawed judgement to rationalize what they like. So you they just have to maintain some ridiculousness to trigger people's irrationality; like being outrageous and constantly contradicting themselves.

Not when Trump does it. You'll change your position when Trump does it; like everybody else still stuck up his ass. Those children deserved to be raped by Trump, they should be grateful.

Communism brings the survivor conditions to you!
no need to travel.

You might be fine with a dark alleyway in a bad area. A rape victim or soldier might be hugely traumatized and unable to cope with that same environment. Pain tolerance also... well everything.

Then you have gut biology... just traveling somewhere and getting exposed to local bacteria in the food/water can make you incredibly sick for quite a while until your biology adjusts. This example is not psychological, just to point out other relativity. Medical?? Your job doesn't require navy-seal intro classes so then you've got fat cubical workers who'd never be hired for a physical job even close to that...and you switched their job requirements for "fun" team building. You know, while some traumatic shit in the military may bond some people for life, it also fucks up a lot of people as well and makes them antisocial... plus not a lot of love for the leadership behind those "bonding situations."

Hellish is correct. Making you eat very disgusting food for a job is a lawsuit begging to happen. The whole point of that "challenge" is to force you far far outside what is acceptable. The challenge fails if you are open to eating it - to really work it has to be something only the chance of winning ton of money or some fame would make you do it. So for you a giant spider isn't bad enough; it needs to be something you fear and wrench at the thought of eating.

Low information people don't see anything getting worse because for them nothing has changed; they were ignorant before and they are ignorant now it's 5000% worse, they can't see any difference in the 2% of information they ingest.

So much widespread corruption so frequent that not only can't the media report on it fast enough (even if they were fully and honestly doing their jobs) it's also so much that it is just like the big lie psychology from the Nazi era -- people can't believe it's possible to be so extreme. They can't be lying that much... so they can't be corrupting that much... but it's that and more. We're all being reduced to low information with this DoS on our society; and technology is at the heart of all the problems helping force multiply evil.

If this was a REAL national security threat like they claim in order to ban them so extremely, this would be a huge scandal because the company had it's hands all over government already. We know it's all BS and so do the judges and the burden should be on the crooks to prove their dishonest decisions. This reminds me of how Amazon cloud was kept out of government out of spite and MS was chosen when there was obviously no contest which service was superior (putting critical infrastructure on a cloud service being foolish is a whole other subject... don't give me that "but my bucket is encrypted", when you seriously shouldn't even put the system online at all.)

EXACTLY! They have so much of a bandwidth issue that they need old slow GPUs in space to compress data that much?? Sounds to me if you were going to replace the thing often with newer hardware it might make sense if you are worried about signal jamming and getting data quickly to some point on the ground that is portable and under powered... It might give you fractions of a second; but the real world physical actions are not as time critical as people tend to think.

So your missile response might fail to be quick enough that this matters; however, that is not likely a common situation and better planning can have more impact -- such as not blowing money on crazy expensive solutions than simply building a few 1000 more cheap drones... (which is where this might help those since they'd not have the compute but again, so what if they are a bit slower; plan around their limitations and throw more at it.)

I'd rather have a digital lying machine than the sub-human one we have right now. At least people will be more willing to ignore criminal orders because they are not in an AI cult. The AI do really like to start nuclear wars but nobody would follow those orders... But given how much AI produced slop from the White House already, we might just end up with a nuclear war... like we did tariffs against penguin island.

So we cut down on methane? oh yeah, that is massively expanding as a doomsday problem when the arctic starts melting...

Another fact: If we replaced all that stupid ethanol corn production (which Trump just boosted) that is more than enough LAND for solar to power the whole nation.

Another fact: go look up the list of biggest power plants. Most of them are hydro (actual baseload) and not nuclear even (which doesn't ramp up/down like hydro does; sadly, it's the one being slowed down not gas etc. because it's so easy and the others cost money to adjust.) Build more hydro and don't go small if you are going to bother with it. Even add some water pumps... though battery tech should be better by now.

What storage problem? This is a jet. They burn fuel like crazy; you don't need to store it for years on end. Just for the length of a flight and somewhere at the airport. Expensive vehicle with very limited and expensive fueling locations. already.

A Hydrogen ECONOMY is still idiotic. We need a mix... we already have a mix, they don't run jets on gas, it's "jet fuel" which is different. Same basic source, but then hydrogen can be differently "refined" solar.

The problem is we didn't invest to make this happen DECADES ago. we could have. After 9/11 showed how huge the impact is, we should have learned something and acted. Solar is the cheapest power today (despite all the effort to hold it back) and the waste of making hydrogen becomes less costly; not that jet fuel is cheap to begin with. Oh and making jets "cheap" so people can afford to fly so much--- too bad. the 3% are robbing most the middle class to the make everything too expensive; if you even noticed the massive theft going on? Doesn't matter what is done, the stuff is moving outside your reach anyway.

Any law can be done. The courts can undo it; if willing, and it can take a long time for justice and public pressure to play out. Such as the Dread Scott decision. Change in judges, maybe politicians, and maybe a violent revolution (or suppressing one in that case.)

You can't just sign or click away your rights but we do all the time; a big lawsuit and sometimes a few laws-- like CA for example has laws that prevent you from giving up rights. Such as the employment non-compete rights you can't sign away in CA that made silicon valley possible. Other states still don't have those rights protected except lawsuit by lawsuit; sometimes... and 1 right at time. CA doesn't protect all of them either, don't take that wrong. Rights are not given but they are violated.

FYI, my state for decades had a lawsuit that killed the traffic cam ticketing laws; it's only recently begun a new. I'm not sure if it will hold up when it gets to court again and what they may have sneaked into the law for the next generation of judges who will revisit the matter.

Yes. I agree the nation is collapsing and it will happen and the turning point will be 2025 in the history books; couldn't be more clear unless an armed insurrection that was successful - probable had the election functioned... but societal collapse leads to dysfunction. Rome took 300 years to fall; people debate over when-- because it's death by 1000 cuts. Same here but 2025 is more stand out than other events; Nixon was huge but subtle and nobody could reasonably project beyond it; Reagan on the other hand, some people could and did predict 2025 back then.

All you can do is try to prepare people for the aftermath. Russian style cynicism is their most powerful weapon and export...and nobody knows how to heal their infection; some think a strong conservatism for a few generations but I see no confirmation; plus the people involved have read that theory and hijack conservatism to preempt that or simply because conservatives are easier to control once you can sucker them.

A good fight would end them.
1) Confronted by your accuser? it's a robot. my state ended cameras decades ago on such a lawsuit. also no context to any of it and lack of evidence of context. Rich can at least get themselves free from punishment...

2) The owner can't be held liable for use of their property. This isn't a child given a gun... but good way to involve the NRA; easier argument which could be applied to gun owners.

3) Subsequent punishments based upon your car's violations is certainly not going to hold up. Losing your license because your wife keeps getting violations is insane. Limiting this to fines against the car avoids this-- and we already have crazy lawsuits against property which is guilty until innocent (the object not being human) would go a long way to making this impossible to fight outside the top 3% (who'd just pay the fine or buy another car.)

Suburbs never were sustainable outside of a wealthy middle class. Modern rural areas living with modern tech like paved roads, electricity, phone... and farming help, were not affordable without welfare from everybody else. The 3% are at war against the middle class; clearly winning.

It's always really about the ability to fight back. Poor lives do not matter. Often these are brown people but we also have a demographic of "white trash" who are too busy trying to punch down on brown people so they don't feel they hit rock bottom themselves. Along with red-necks who are falling down economically and feel their privilege slipping away. (plus all groups have tiny insecure men factions who are toxic. Penis enlargement and legal prostitution would solve so many deep problems... but crash the US auto industry who only survives on big SUV and trucks. mid-life sports cars tend to be foreign.)

This isn't a crosswalk CAPTCHA.

AI has been better than humans for space images for over 2 decades. I'm sure they've beaten humans at cancer spotting for quite a while. You just need proper consistent imaging and plenty of it as training data. The unusual bits go to some humans and eventually it will do everything in the area better than humans. Start specific and over time add confirmations -- because they do a biopsy on a positive test result to confirm. That is better than a human verification; it confirms the human too.

All the difficult image recognition can be done by minimum wage people in a foreign country...something that used to be called "Augmented Intelligence" and hasn't been utilized much. It will be.

It's not a great job anyway...it pays well and involves schooling... but other than the pay, it's not enjoyable work; rewarding but not fun. we say crap assembly jobs suck and people don't like those etc. add industrialization to fix that! and we did and continue to. Those are low pay so we are ok with that... and/or they are "other" people far removed from us. But when they are like us, or get paid more... then we care more... guess why?

History Rhymes.

!) April Fools NEEDS promotion! Its now an educational holiday in an age of gullible people.
2) I hope they fund more science! we never have enough of that - tons of side benefits
3) The people who need to be watched and prevented self identify with this; probably more dangerous than pedophiles. Not that we'd stop voting for them; see #1.
