Or a variant that's closer to Ebola Reston. Airborne, 100% fatality rate (so far only in a couple species of monkeys. So far...)

All this nattering about licensing and we haven't yet had one comment -

Regrading the "Killdozer" guy -

Those two things go hand-in-hand a lot more than I am comfortable with.

So we can't afford renewable wave energy for powering peoples' homes. But somehow it becomes feasible to power AI bros' desperate money grabs?

A couple of million dollars to the TRUMP Ballroom Fund should clear any irksome regulatory hurdles posed by the ineffectual FAA.

/s ... ?

Dude thought he had bought a golden ticket skimming a % off the top on the securitization of bribery. He deserves to lose his shirt. And be in prison.

The Matrix was right.
Mankind did burn the sky. Not to prevent AIs* from taking over but to give birth to them.


* actually unreliable LLMs, we all know the score here on /. .

Trump has done more to accelerate the adoption renewables than anyone EVER by goading Iran into closing the straits of Hormuz.
Non-stupid countries read that signal correctly and will respond more-or-less rationally. To whit, get the fuck off middle east oil.

There's ~8 billion of us, if we eat one or two of these antisocial dickheads, that works out to be less than a gram per citizen, you won't even notice it. Less than a communion wafer or the rat hair in a hotdog. Part of your civic duty like going to church or jury duty.

1. Propagandize on teh intarwebs to get the useful idiots baying in the wrong direction. Including demonizing the wrong 1%.
2. Collect kompromat to control politicians. If none is available, have a program to create some. (RELEASE THE EPSTIEN FILES.)
3. Assymetric warfare, use swarms of cheap drones s while the enemy uses 1 million dollar missiles to try to stop them.
4. sabotage, particularly cyber and ecoonomic .
5. Don't be a blundering loudmouth. Diplomacy has a much greater ROI. Needing to blow things up is a failure.
0. Make sure you've got people on the inside working in your interests instead of those of their own nation.

Looks like the ADE 651 got a quantum upgrade.


Kind of like how in WWII the allies promoted the idea that carrots help with your night vision to obfuscate the fact that they had RADAR to explain away how their night fighters kept shooting down German planes. Even Bugs Bunny played his patriotic part for the war effort.

That's damn well not how they're selling it!
