Ruin a couple generations of kids?
Everything was largely fine until Feminism. You can trace every single step of this disease back to its Feminist roots.

The only unemployment harm caused by AI will be inflicted by so-called "leaders" who fire people because they don't understand the limits of the technology.
I was a student who actually did want to learn.
As was I. However, my High School wasn't teaching much of anything I wanted to learn. And where what I wanted to learn intersected with what the school was teaching, I was either already far more advanced than the teachers, or my dad's Navy transfers landed me in a new school district that was stricter than the one I left. That meant that I never progressed, and squeaked by High School with a 1.0 (after a kind English teacher rounded up).
When I got into College, and a stable location, things were much better. I got caught up, and after a more extended than normal college curriculum, I graduated with a 3.2 overall and a 3.8 in my major (thanks for nothing, COBOL class).
I only took most of the classes I took in College because I had to take them. I couldn't have cared less for almost all the General Ed. classes, and I cored dumped them all after getting the credits.
...president OrangeMan created said law.
That would be a first. I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out why.
These state-level, massive privacy-invading age verification laws (including the subject of this article) proliferated under Biden (that doesn't really matter, but you imply that it does). All of these stupid Federal laws were bipartisan rights violations, from top to bottom. Both parties are dead set on destroying America, so blaming one over the other is ignoring the real problem -- they both want absolute control over us all.
'm reminded of the evil genie that would "corrupt" a person's wish to give them exactly what they asked for even though it wasn't really what they wanted.
Wishmaster is the movie. And X-Files did a more family-friendly episode.
Apparently "boffin" is a British slang term for a scientist/engineer.
Yes, and many boffins died to bring us that information.
A fear exclusively held by the people with more money than sense.
The income tax was initially promoted as a tax against the wealthy, then expanded in effect until it snared almost everyone. California will expand this tax in the same way.
...not a considered response.
You can stop your consideration at the 50% "one time" tax. That is a hard pass from me. Nothing good EVER comes from a one-time tax. They ALWAYS turn into a permanent tax. The rest of his proposal is totally irrelevant.
There's no way to make social media safe for children.
Yes there is, but it's very unpopular. It starts with dismantling the scourge of Feminism, which is the root cause of MANY of the dangers children face today, including social media. That's just the start, though.
...but not enough did and here we are.
I stopped buying and playing all Blizzard games at that point.
They are also hooking up and having sex far less frequently. They are measurably less intelligent than previous generations.
That seems pretty smart to me.
The technology isn't mature enough to consider accurate on its own and without human oversight.
And Google knows this, yet gives it prominent placement in front of everything else. That is implicit endorsement of what it is saying, so it is the same as Google saying it. Holding Google responsible is indeed a good ruling.
even if [LibreOffice] does feel a little arcane at times.
That's a matter of what you are used to and know. I can navigate LibreOffice much more readily than in Microsoft Office, as LibreOffice has been my standard for a long time.
So I take it you stood up for yourself and found a better job, right? Right?!
What on Earth gives you that idea? Did you read what I wrote?
The surprising thing here is what the actual cost is.
Why is that a surprise? We all predicted it from the very beginning. It's like being surprised when Christmas arrives every year.
Do molecular biologists wear designer genes?
