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.

I hope the webserver is still working.

This is a desperation attempt to solve a problem; or more like placate voters -- if it works or not is not as important as acting like you are solving a voter issue.

A common (fundamental?) theme in minor to pro-level politics is BLAME management:

The fact corps impose the whole trash problem on *everybody else* to save them money, is masked by making it OUR problem to solve; we are responsible for cleaning it up.
Protection of children (especially if you want to do harmful stuff) is then the responsibility of their guardians to use the laws and tools they promoted to "empower" them. They are the good guys lobbying etc. to give everybody the ability to V-CHIP the internet! So then like the V-CHIP it'll fail but its our failure instead of theirs (to be fair, they never put porn over the airwaves and blame people for not blocking it with the V-CHIP... because that was a BS placating political "solution" from the 90s)

It's funny to suggest that we need age verification to counter immature people who go around making empty death threats like a 12 year old... but is not age tagged so we treat it was serious. Making an argument using them as a reason precisely against their position!

But really, those can be ignored for just about everybody. Now a real person on a phone call can sound really bad and real if done by the right unhinged person; heard it. Now with AI a child can get a really good real sounding threat. While a child calling would sound comical and unfortunately they all know this so we don't get to enjoy their cute death threats. Outside the USA, it's entirely empty when you get those things. Sure you can find 1 example case out of millions of people with lower odds than lightning strikes (and not golfers either.)

Seriously, a user group is all we should standardize as a solution. software can use the flag or not and setting the flag (user group) becomes another issue to fight over.

Find a better source. The idea doesn't originate from that sick woman who is a high priest of the morons. I'm not being insulting, her work is juvenile; it's low maturity for her age and while it resonates with teenagers, a healthy person out grows that in a reasonable time... when they hit their 20s. If you are still stuck, then by definition, you are a moron. Just a fact. Without brain damage, it's theoretically possible you can still learn and grow out of what everybody else has. Not all morons are permanent; though, the old definition of it came at a time when they didn't know brains are extremely adaptable.

Correct.
Americans ARE. TOO. STUPID. (by majority.)

Far from it, the admin loves military contractors! Why? big money.
Safer? they don't care much about that.
Low floor? again, they don't care much; probably the incompetents in charge don't even realize that matters until somebody tells them.

THIS is the solution! Promote it!...
Actually a simple user group "adult" that you add users to who are adults or "underage."

It's not OS enforced; it's STANDARD for software to poll to find out permissions. Engineering wise, shouldn't you use the OS existing permissions system to do this?!!

The law simply applies to software using a simple standard mechanism to determine it. If you want intelligence and security or whatever, those are 3rd party software that handle the user group.

The admin has a JOB to do. That JOB is to set access permissions. If the child becomes an adult, it is the admin's JOB (as a parent?) to set permissions. It should not be automatic or set by age or whatever. That is open ended and is entirely the admin's JOB! If an admin can't handle this simple task, they are too stupid to have children. Child protection services should take away their children; seriously!

Use case for those lacking creativity, a school. A school bans things from children. A child turns 18 but who is still in school and their peers are not yet 18 and the school don't just immediately allow porn or beer in the school at their birthday. An automated date rule would not work realistically in the REAL WORLD. Increased complexity (date+rule) resulting in even more complexity and special case exceptions. Poor design ends up in hacks and data corruption.

No he is not. He has no power to start wars. or kidnap people. he can make emergency defensive moves. that is why they are bending over backwards to make up imminent threat emergency excuses to give them legal cover that itself is pathetic. even bush had to work at it to do his war; this idiot just picks the worst option people give him -- just as John Bolton said he did previously.

Trump put crooks in charge and maybe you've noticed a huge increase in small delivery companies you never heard about bringing your packages when it used to be the USPS? Also the time delays of having your neighborhood letters being sent 1000 miles away to be sorted only to arrive later down the street...

Plus they hired a military contractor to waste money making stupid ugly delivery vans that are way way behind schedule; also they use plenty of gas. The EV company that bid for the contract would never be allowed to get the contract. Would have built a fleet by now and they'd be running CHEAPER. My USPS is using a minivan because they couldn't get what they were supposed to-- the good part is the minivan is far better than the shit being slowly made in Wisconsin.

Also they seem to like spending money on ads for the USPS. I don't know if there are more of those or not. I don't see enough TV.

FYI, right now they are set to have major delays and money problems likely to screw things up with delays for the election. Plus they don't timestamp letters locally so it appears later than it was mailed...
