This reminds me precisely of those fucktards who spread covidian conspiracies - "safe & effective mRNA cocktails" and that hilarious "double masking works" bullshit. More of the same will be produced by this insane effort. Those who fall for it will deserve what they get, if they didn't learn from 5 years of idiotic Fauci-led hysteria.

FFS "prioritizing rapid AI development over any sort of centralized control or rigorous standards" is a pretend problem. Centralized control isn't a laudable goal except to big government enthusiasts. Those rigorous standards? Any hugely expensive undertaking on the level of these datacenters requires rigorous standards if it's going to be profitable, and nobody is investing in sloppily built datacenters.

The free market responded as expected: there's a market that John Deere lost forever by getting greedy. A competitor arose and more will follow. Food supply's more necessary than ever.

You responded to a comment about TX and FL, yet the content implies you're referring to California. It's true that some activities certain Californians enjoy are curtailed in Texas - street shitting, homeless encampments literally anywhere, racial violence, gang violence, etc. This is a necessary tradeoff that lets Texas attract a more productive class of citizen, and the reason why Texans don't pay the highest taxes in the country. When you encourage productivity while discouraging the shitty behavior that erodes social fabric, standards of living becomes measurably higher.

Fun facts:
California’s state and local government revenues and spending are 60 percent higher than Texas on a per-resident basis.
Cost of living is 30-40% lower on average in TX than CA
Home ownership in both FL and TX are 2/3. It's closer to 1/2 in CA.
California has by far the worst average air quality in the country
California's homeless rate is more than double Texas'

You're assuming that naming a bluetooth speaker "BOMB" is something an actual bomber would do. In reality no actual terrorists have - as far as we know - named their speakers BOMB, and water brought from outside still hasn't caused any explosions. Naming a thing isn't a threat. Nobody is yelling fire in a crowded theatre.

Maybe it's time you and your fellow authoritarians justify your unreasonable, groundless, idiotic fears and explain how this particular incident deserves new rules.

After listening to the Vatican pedophiles, I agree with your highly authoritarian stance here.

- We desperately need to be told by government what we can do with software tools, because only government bureaucrats are smart enough to make the rules.
- We should be as concerned about AI as we were when buggy whip sellers lost their jobs in the last century
- We should place boundaries around AI use for vice because individual liberties, and the freedom to make our own decisions, is too much for our enfeebled modern minds to comprehend. Prohibition always works so let's continue that winning streak.
- We should draw boundaries around AI use in weapons because, uh, weapons should be blindly obedient. We don't want them to hurt anybody, right?

We've been getting these predictions for decades so eventually it'll come true, right?

That's why the ever-generous Bill Gates keeps buying up waterfront to help compensate the plebs being forced out once the ocean level rises.

It's a good thing too - Gates and his buddies are finally making some headway in creating the climate catastrophe they've been warning about.

Imagine how special you've gotta be to call 911, report a stolen briefcase and Airpods, and get taken seriously. Anybody else would be roughed up for reporting tripe like that on the emergency line. The ripe privilege of these poisonous pricks is preposterous.

Dreaming is great but wait til you see what Reveries can do for your experience of realism here in Clownworld.

I'm truly astonished that replacing billionaires with welfare bums isn't worrying Newsom, given his political aspirations and potential for graft at the national level.

The UK's example of trading 200k/emigrant for -14k/immigrant is a fascinating primer on socialist economics that should've been a cautionary tale rather than blueprint.

All the crybabies trying to justify these billionaires and their empires can't handle the fact that every single one will be replaced by hundreds or even thousands of welfare recipients. Californians will replace the dollars contributed by billionaires with empty hands and achieve Newsom's socialist dream.

From the ashes of self-inflicted wounds will emerge a California made stronger (by manufactured hardships), more benevolent (toward lawbreakers and thieves and political parasites), and greater (in hungry numbers) than ever before.

Mamdani will look on in astonishment and envy as paradise slowly unfolds (aka collapses) following Newsom's aggressive tax base erosion. It's a blueprint to every socialist society looking to enter full communist mode without regarding historical precedent. And it will be glorious. As a Brookfield investor and resident of a red state, I salute the bravery of Gavin & Pelosi's pals in offering their own flesh to the mob and stand ready to scoop up whatever remains at firesale prices in a few years.

Wow. I didn't know you were so smart, and saving the whole human race was so easy because of your smartness. Thanks I guess ðY

Or, putting on the tinfoil hat here, what if I'm alive today because of literally billions of years of fine tuning by an evolutionary process vastly beyond people like you, no matter how smart you'd like to believe you are. Could this possibility be more likely than the other? Hmmm. ðY"
