No problem, EFF hasn't been cool for a while now. Remember what they did to RMS?

It's not difficult - Iran must be balkanized if Israel is going to conquer the Middle East and expand its proper borders to "those promised by God". They will demand a regional empire beyond their borders as a "buffer zone".

The Eschatological Christian Zionists want them tp destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque and build the Third Temple so Jesus can come back. Much of the Senior Brass at DoD (or Department of War Crimes) believes in this.

Is it all absurd and crazy? Doesn't matter, it's what motivates the people with nukes.

That and Trump being blackmailed with Epstein Tapes. The news says it's specifically an audio tape of a phone call between those two.

This is what the people who want peace in the world are up against. We can't counter what we deny.

> when your investigative toolkit is journalism

Exactly. The English Majors went where other investigators have previously gone and ruled out.

The stack of blockchain, Merkle Trees, halvings, etc. show a level of insight a quantum above Hashcash.

There's noting wrong with being "quite good" but "engineering genius" is something different.

Besides, Satoshi would never have stood for not funding mining with txn fees. The BTC chain is in danger of being unmineable very soon.

I bought some paper books from Amazon in 1998 and they still work like the day I bough them.

Excellent support after 28 years.

When you have a product made from leftover rejected parts the supply is guaranteed to be limited.

So you hype it as "for a limited time" and people go hog wild with FOMO.

coming soon: "The Neo is Back."

Yeah, "LLM's are gods" and "statistical ML networks are good at finding defective code patterns" are extremely different claims.

The people who are True Believers on both extremes look pretty silly.

I appreciate really good closed captioning while having no use for chatbots. Both ends get to call me a heretic!

Just watch the patches and CVE's trickling out.

It's not like OpenBSD is going to sit on a vulnerability for 90 days or whatever.

Issuing a patch doesn't give away the details about how it was found.

>"I agree with the decision handed down."

I do too

>"I do not agree with legislating from the bench. The courts need to apply the laws as written, not make up new laws. We have a branch of government for making new laws."

The problem is that the laws are often not well written and too flexible, generic, undefined, or even contradictory. The other problem is when the legislature is too chicken s*** to make a stand on anything and do their jobs. Instead, they just shove all their responsibilities onto unelected agencies with nebulous, overly-broad mandates. That way the legislators can't be held accountable for anything.

To be fair I just wasted a week tracking down a radio telemetry problem because of a forum post that many people said worked great but it definitely pulled a pin high that was supposed to be low, which shut off an antenna.

Only diving into the spec sheet and some sample embedded code convinced me that the forum post was exactly wrong and after making a simple change to do the opposite did all the telemetry devices mesh up and start reporting correctly.

So ... how does 90% compare to human content?

A wrinkle is that everybody knows humans are flawed and too many people treaty the LLM as omniscient.

Why should anybody care if this drives electric bills up to $1000/mo for the typical household?

We have unlimited energy, no?

Dipshits aren't creating a global energy crisis right now.

The world economy isn't headed for a global depression.

Natgas should be burned for LLM hallucinations and cats driving motorcycles, not converted into fertilizer to stave off a massive African famine.

Western woke governments haven't spent the past fifty years blocking new energy generation at every opportunity.

Right?

Don't invite the guillotines, dudes.

Why not notify their electric company to cut their power to halt infringement?

Or their water company so the house is uninhabitable?

The Courts need to recognize that Internet has become a necessary utility and that the music companies need to deal with the individual directly through the Courts, not in a lazy clandestine way.

Grande seems based.

Count the number of emails between a company founder and Epstein before you install their code in your Browser or put your data on their platform.

I mean, spies were spying on you?

Not to mock the victims, but c'mon, Nancy, don't be naÃve.

You are pretty close. I honestly can't even remember why, it was so many years ago. I only remember hating the messaging app and hating what Google offered and heard about Textra. Tried it, and it solved all my problems. I paid a few dollars to support it. And over the years, it just kept getting better.

Since I have no interest in social media or other DM, all I need/use is SMS. It is possible there are better options now, but I have no motivation or need to explore anything else yet.

>"Why would you want SMS app with "ads and in app purchases" when so many fully featured ad free with no in app purchases SMS apps exist?"

I have been using it for many years. Long before there were any good other options. There might be better options now, I don't know. I have been happy with Textra, though. Updated regularly, lots of features, and reliable.

>"Everyone has their own message app, and outside US, almost no one uses it for anything other than SMS. For everything else, it's Whatsapp, Telegram, WeChat, Signal, etc."

I have never used Samsung's, although it is on my phone. Or any other manufacturer's (LG, Moto, etc). But I also don't use Google Messages. I use Textra with every phone, regardless of brand. But I also don't use any other messaging except SMS. I just want something that works and does what I want.
