Stupid and malicious are different.

The offered narrative is "let us build the data center AI control grid now because it's only temporary until we can move it to space".

You and I both know that's not thermodynamically possible with known science.

So do the people saying it.

We have a real problem with Positive Projection where we are decent folks so we project that on people who are not. That is an error even though most people are decent folks. The parasites are not.

I only recent learned that Hanlon's Razor comes from a humor book about Murphy's Law from the early 80's. It's not some ancient axiom of wisdom - it is used by the Cluster B disordered to mask their nefarious deeds.

If you talk about this with most people these days you'll get the Positive Projection script executed like an autorun.

Everybody should turn off autorun whenever possible. Major risk.

> Gardasil

It's sold as an "HPV vaccine" but it only targets about 4% of HPV viruses, specifically the ones most likely to cause cervical cancer in women in their 40's. It's described in the Merck literature.

Not even the HPV most likely to cause throat cancer in men (usually acquired from lady parts).

If cancer treatment advances at the current rate (AI discovery docs estimate 9 years for the supermajority) it's possible that the Gardasil fatalities will have killed more teens than prevented deaths of women.

It's like a Drake Equation for cancer - the coefficients will determine the narrative either positive or negative. This is where free choice is ethically mandated.

Unfortunately there is considerable religious fervor about such things so very few people wants to scientifically discuss nuances.

Say more; be specific.

What is missing or broken?

Why isn't EU sponsoring specific features and fixes it needs?

Or assign some of their own developers to submit pull requests.

Or hire *some Europeans* who are unemployed because their war is killing industry.

Let's hear from their project manager instead of faceless wankers and the people responsible for sales.

The propagandists say that their competitors confuse people and they won't believe the propaganda anymore.

The Horror, the Horror.

We'd all be trillionaires if we could see that far into the future with sufficient clarity.

Consider whether a Depopulationist psyop is more or less likely than that The End Times have finally come (unlike the previous thousand pronouncements).

People who are anxious and scared are easy to control. Have a look back at Al Gore's slide deck and see how much they really knew.

Though Competitive Advantage should not be discounted as a very real driver of evolutionary fitness.

The poorest people in the world somehow manage to not extinct their 4B-yr old germ line.

Many Westerners have personal preferences greater than familial survival. It's been trained into them but only in times of mass starvation has this ever happened before in history.

I use a bluetooth page turner pedal for sheet music.

I think it was $14 for two buttons. Maybe there's a third, I only ever use forward and back.

$40 is wild.

They probably need another trillion dollars and this time they'll do it right!

No accountability, no consequences for failure.

It's just fear porn.

```
McDonald's tracks adherence to the platform, and notes any deviations from the algorithm's price recommendations
```

Which is what you'd want to do for any prototype system.

They should then track foot traffic, gross sales, and net profit and see whether the recommendations increased or decreased them when followed.

Having a control group is valuable, not a target for punishment. If McD Corporate were sane, anyway (cf. ice cream machine fiasco).

The one near me was charging over $6 for fries three years ago - I can't imagine what it's up to now. Haven't been back since.

Reuters is mostly jschool grads emoting and distributing propaganda.

> Amazon mechanical turk slaves

What does 'slaves' mean to you in this context?

The hypnosis:

```
If I am not smart enough to understand what my code will do I am not responsible for very bad things it does under CFAA. Even if I know it is likely to do very bad things.
```

The psyop is that it is an independent intelligence free from the societal constraints of Justice.

This is analogous to some head of a corporation going, "We just dump the waste in the drain that says 'waste', the PCB's in the River aren't my fault."

Both groups are paying off governments to look the other way. We won't find justice there, apparently. (do prove me wrong, that would be great)

Here's a free book for the politicians in DC to read to learn why central planning always fails.

I mean it's only been out 106 years, so maybe they haven't heard of it yet.

TL;DR local cities have more information about what they need.

Of course corruption happens at all levels and some folks in cities still have DSL for that reason.

I saw it with a group of four people.

Three of us enjoyed it quite a bit.

I didn't mind it but nothing was surprising to me.

I saw several scenes that could have been more cleverly written but I was glad to support the group that saved a creative work from the burn pile. The idea of killing a movie for accounting losses seems sinful.

The motion-control photography, practical effects, and integration of animation were at least as good as Roger Rabbit.

If you enjoy the craft of filmmaking it's at least worth seeing.

I didn't see any marxist social commentary. Perhaps folks in the "Flock does nothing wrong" camp might feel otherwise.

Would be lovely if they could take a breath and spend a release fixing Dr. Konqui or Akonadi or whatever crashes that show up a few times a month for me (regardless of hardware).

This has been going on for half of its 30-yr release cycle.

I must admit ignorance of how this can persist for so long. FLOSS developers typically obsess over stability but seemingly not in the KDE culture.

I used to install symbols and submit bug reports but they're not interested if you're not running the latest tip.

Not that there is an obvious better DE right now. XFCE could stop corrupting its preferences files too. I used to have a script to restore a config from a previous ZFS snapshot when it self destructed but that gets old too.

If I'm building a device for production I'll use something simple like openbox/devilspie2 to get stability.

Lots of folks seem to get fed up and start a new project but momentum is a real thing. I hear Omarchy is stable and not withering but tiles just aren't my thing. More power to those who love them.
