The original argument for these cameras was:

You are in public, it is legal for humans to physically observe you, therefore it is legal for the cops to observe you, therefore it is legal for them to use cameras to observe you.

The problem is that quantity changes things. It may be legal for a person standing in public to observe you, but for them to follow you all day is called STALKING. That is not legal.

For a cop to follow you all day, every day of your life, that is Harassament. They would need a court order to do that, or be subject to a court order preventing it.

Flock and other similar cameras do not just take pictures, they have software now to track you everywhere you go in the US (excluding Alaska) using over 120,000 cameras. They can follow you from one camera to another.

This is stalking, not merely observing.

That's not having more computer, that's having more computers. DCs are concentrations of power, it doesn't matter how many computers are in them really but we have to organize the logic into many computers because otherwise interconnection becomes unmanageably expensive. Drones inherently depend on many distributed computers, but none of them have to be very powerful. The more processing power you have the more fancy tricks they can do, but drones are inevitably energy-limited and therefore have limited loiter capability, so the types of tricks you will want them to play are also limited.

Yeah, it's called fast fashion.

How do you know he doesn't also say things about those, coward?

Trump is demented. That's a different disability.

While he was never a good legal businessman, he seems to have been a capable gangster. But now he's lost most of his marbles, and the rest are rolling away rapidly.

Demonstrate that they're being enforced before claiming they're enforceable.

Private criticism is by definition ineffective. It is designed to inform without punish. It is in reality folding, letting Trump win.

Trump is doing a performance. He does everything as a performance without understanding the real life consequences of things.

He insults NATO publicly and wonders why they don't support his war. Why? Because he expects that only the MAGA idiots will observe the performance and is shocked that everyone else observes it and believes it.

The thing is, NATO spend decades learning that the performance IS reality. NATO saw Hitler, thought it was a performance, then paid the cost for thinking that. They saw Stalin and went on guard, finding him to be a real threat based on his words. Same with Khrushchev and Brezhnev.

Europe learned long ago NOT to trust the shmucks that claim they do not really mean their public words. Those words are believed by their own people so it does not matter if the leader was lying, the words they spoke become the truth, if they can push them hard enough.

The GOP used to not be pleased. They have driven out almost every trustworthy Republican, leaving a bunch of toadies in place. No one cares that the toadies secretly know Trump is a shmuck.

The toadies will be punished in November BECAUSE they did not fight back publicly. They could have impeached, they chose not to. Now they will be removed from office because they did not attack Trump.

Here you are crying about Marxism again while also being a person who wants your relatives to get more free money. Shouldn't your family be paying for that if you're so against collectivism? You don't have beliefs, only arguments, so why should anyone care about your emotional appeals?

Nvidia doesn't need to care because people are stupid and will buy their shit whether they are assholes or not. A few informed customers may switch but most people aren't informed.

The Republican plan to dumb down voters until they are stupid enough to vote Republican has secondary effects, who knew?

You don't know enough to speak to that, which I covered elsewhere in this conversation. Your opinion about it is uninteresting.

Choice one: Is this the beginning of a new golden age of Television?

Choice 2: Or are they putting out the same, low quality stuff and when they DO manage to create a hit, do they cancel it after one season?

What am I thinking, of course, choice 2.

Sure, just not many 8 year olds are customers. It's teenagers.

It's not stupid if chaos and destruction are the goals. It's only evil.

To maggots anyone not on their party line is wrong. Too bad that party line is an unprotected signal chat.

You were mad that efforts were being made to make up for prejudicial treatment that you have benefited from and now you want to cry about it here and get other people to comisserate with you over it. You proved exactly how necessary such efforts are with your crybaby reaction.
