Trump..no, Trump has no idea what is going on. Trump is just a useful idiot. Koch Brothers and other billionaires Ala project 2025, absolutely, they are in control.
More likely, Stephen Miller and others directly around him, those fawning over him in cabinet meetings.
What if the cops or some judge orders you to wear one in order to extract information or control behavior?
In the U.S. this would probably violate the 5th Amendment clause against self-incrimination.
That said, let's just hope this isn't available in the next 2.5 years
Futurama did a joke on beaming commercials into your dreams while you sleep.
And letting us hear Bender's dreams - I think we're in them.
(Can't decide if they would/wouldn't want to harvest those thoughts...)
Huh. I thought these guys were all about States Rights.
Apparently that only extends to telling women what they can do with their own bodies?
Well
Blanche lamented that the Trump administration’s efforts to restrict abortion are “taking longer than we want” but said the Justice Department was “working hand in hand” with federal health agencies and the White House “so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state.”
“We don’t have complete victory yet, but we will have victory, and victory will be soon, and and and it will be permanent,” Blanche vowed.

Gambling is mandatory.
Book a seat on Greyhound. Because you won't be flying anymore.
Because, like Archer, they're on both the No Fly and No Train lists?
US Hires Over 2,000 Video Gamers As Air Traffic Controllers
Aren't many (most?) video games about destroying things? How much of their training will be about *not* crashing or shooting down planes? I guess it could work if scores are based on successful landings and course changes? Not as exciting, but maybe just as satisfying? They will know that there's no save, restore or reset functions - right?
And that crowd ignores that the other Noah was involved in the biggest climate / sea-level change event in "history."
Not to mention he was a stable genius, able to somehow collect and pack two of all the species on earth into a small (by modern standards) ship, then feed and transport them all around the world without mishap.
Obviously, Noah was a Timelord with a TARDIS.
I worked in an office for years and never had a Windows PC.
I've had a mix on my desk for day-to-day use over the years: DOS / Windows PCs. BSDi / 386BSD PCs, Sun 3/4 Workstations, SGI Indigo Workstation, various Linux PCs. The last two places provided Windows PCs for Office and Outlook, with X11 software for Unix/Linux server connections.
If the stable genius hears about that, it'll be the end of NOAA and maybe of climate itself.

I know reading TFA would be silly, but literally half of TFS addresses your "point".
I know. I re-read TFS and posted a follow-up saying Oops. But thanks...
Google Gemini Hits 1 Billion Users In Record Time
Is that willing users? Users who are happy about Gemini being forced on them? Users who have an easy way to avoid/disable this (while using google products)? I'm guessing all no.
Oops, re-read TFS, my bad.
These 1 billion users may also be encountering Gemini in all those places, but that's not the MAU metric. Pichai is talking only about people who are opening the Gemini app or visiting the Gemini web interface to enter a prompt or access Gemini Live.

Oh no! $500 million dollars taken away from the $275 BILLION collected in taxes. What ever will CA do without that $500 million?!?
Guessing California will still be the 4th largest economy in the world.
2024 Nominal GDP

- Japan: $4.02T
- India: $3.90T

Getting the job done is no excuse for not following the rules. Corollary: Following the rules will not get the job done.
