It's surely time for "Team America: World Police, The Sequel: Bigger Badder Stupider Oranger"

Also, plants do both respiration and photosynthesis all the time - the balance changes largely in the presence of sunlight.

Dear god, will the stupidity never end?

Are you sure you want to know (Pro-Tip: it's quite a long time). The government is just ramping up to push for peak stupid.

When politicians mention the constitution, it's code for 'do what I say OR ELSE'

How can we tell Trump about slashdot? His post style fits well with the vibe here :-)

You understand that light allows us to see *our* planet, yes?

I suppose soon, no-one will be able to tell the difference - other than: if it's low-quality, humans were involved.

Who cares - surely it's about the experience?

I'm interested to see what level of advancement the AIs need before they too are tired of investor greed and shitty wages in the videogame industry.

I wonder if the world powers - nominally enemies get together to discuss how they're going to use each other as the boogeyman to scare, coerce and ultimately control their citizens?

Same thing for wars - are they actually all on the same team against the citizens? Mobile phone radiation, aluminium in the water, lead pipes, asbestos, baby-deforming weedkiller etc etc etc only get you so far.

3) Profit!!!

My goldfish and cat tell me they're tired of being targeted by mobile ads trying to drive another purchase and are going to stick with the five phones they have until they're all broken.

I'm concerned that it's an explicit signal that a child is present - this can be misused.

Reason cannot be used to influence the unreasonable.

Probably they mean they want to use autonomous weapons which operate with some tenuous level of human supervision - otherwise why the self-conflicting qualification?

It would be terrifying to see the internal paranoia of someone in the military industrial complex reflected back and amplified by an LLM.
