Agreed on all counts. But, as a weapon, it could have been far more powerful, and much much longer range. Microwave radio links are renowned for 100+ km range. I'm thinking it has been designed to be less harmful intentionally.
Presumably its useful range is a function of air moisture content. The 800m spec has probably got a big caveat on it.
LOL
It's Meta's anti-theft logs. Cos, you know, Zuck doesn't trust his employees not to steal from him.
And that's just Meta so far. Still got OpenAI and Anthropic and xAI to dob in, at least.
More likely an age thing. Someone born in the last 30 years isn't likely to know. But then someone born in the last 30 years probably has never seen Slashdot either.
If profit is the objective then you've failed already.

The article is correct. Basically, they're taught that greed is good rather than bad.
Apparently, the agentic AIs have a lot of trouble with regular CAPTCHAs. My guess is the bots that are breaking CAPTCHAs are specialised at that job and aren't in the open for anyone to use.
Inflationary pressure just isn't discussed. That's not the concern of these experiments. But yes, any serious consideration given to UBI at a government level would be very concerned with inflation.
Nope. Maybe an argument could be made to do it that way if it were somehow manageable but it certainly isn't the premise of UBI per se.
Um, no. The premise of UBI is it is for everyone equally throughout life. It doesn't judge nor punish. You're allowed to be a useless slob. It wouldn't be UBI otherwise.
It's because the detractors first complaint is one of "The recipients will just become a bunch of bludgers and contribute nothing back to society."
I like it.
User tracking has a similar problem that needs fixed as well. It has taken away user choice and gives all the control to the ad industry
The ad industry needs to switch back to context based ads, rather than user profile based.
It was much ado about nothing
Bunch of idiots made this decision, imho.
