Comment Re:I think that's more indictment of China (Score 1) 171

Pakistan has twice now looked the other way at Major terrorist attacks happening in India rather than warn the government and twice now nothing has come of it because they're not allowed to go to war when it would screw with capitalism.
 

India's official stated position is to foment disturbances and separatist insurgents in Pakistan. Go look up the statements of senior Indian officials (foreign minister, interior minister, etc.), won't be too hard to google. Why would India/Pakistan inform the other side of imminent terrorist attack? During the recent terrorist train hijacking in Pakistan, while the event was ongoing, Indian media gave full coverage to the masked terrorists, lauding them as freedom fighters.

As to war, India has tried limited "surgical strikes" with embarrassing results. India has substantial edge over Pakistan in a conventional war. Consequently, Pakistan hasn't signed any "no first use" of nuclear weapons.

There are hard line dumbasses on both sides and there won't be any progress in the foreseeable future.

You seem to be fixated on one (one in a multi-million) outlying use-case! First of all, a meatball (human) can make a final call after detailed and precise explanation by the chatbot. And before you start another rant about how it isn't possible because of the "law", the "law" isn't set in stone. Also, the law isn't worldwide.

You sound like an "about to be out of work licensed therapist"!

Why can't the chatbot "describe the situation in detail", include "subtle facial expressions", determine "if what was said was in jest . . ."

Why can't the chatbot call multiple people?

You're grasping at straws. Keep changing the goal posts. It won't matter.

The 1977 election manifesto of the right-wing Israeli Likud party said: "Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty." Similar wording, such as referring to the area "west of the Jordan river", has also been used in the 2020s by other Israeli politicians, including Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu on 18 January 2024.
