BTW, thanks for the reminder to rewatch GalaxyQuest. It’s such a great movie.

TBF, they want everyone dead.

“Hoarding” was just another example of American media blaming individuals for systemic problems. There are always a few idiots, but what actually happened was a breakdown in supply chains.

Same thing happens every time it snows. Stores have enough stock for X people to buy TP. When the whole neighborhood decides to stock up at the same time, they run out.

You can use it to rinse Grabthar’s Hammer if you want.

Those are the gang tattoos we need to worry about.

Yes.

America has always been more or less of a fascist state, and this is not new activity, although it is worse and more brazen in a lot of ways. Civil Rights for ethnic minorities has always been pretty iffy.

30% of the country loves this shit, and another large fraction doesn’t even know it’s going on. A lot of us are working to try to change things. The media is not covering all of the demonstrations, but we definitely need more people to get angry.

The problem with that is that a guy who murdered his three kids is known for something.

At the most generous, maybe the professor in the article shares a name with the killer. Articles will include enough information to clear the professor (like maybe the killer has been in jail for a decade ). A LLM will weave together real information about the professor with the “fact” that he killed his kids.

ChatGPT shouldn’t be used to find any real information, period.

People thinking a glorified autocorrect is a source of factual information is horrifying.

When you want a job done right, don’t leave it to amateurs, go to stealmytesla.com.

Note that these are emergency powers he’s using. Supposedly this is a crisis.

…or they’re on the take as well.

I think 10% of people believe nearly anything. It’s basically the rounding error for a survey.

Honestly, if you had asked me 10 minutes ago “Is MacOS based on Linux?” I would have gotten it wrong. But if you asked “Is MacOS based on UNIX or Linux?” I would have gotten it right.

Shitty title. Business school professors claim they trained an AI to judge workers’ personalities based on their faces.

The article talks about why that is such a stupid and terrible proposal.

if the US government wanted Google to do something, they could storm their headquarters and get the government tech people to go in the servers and change it.

Bwahahahahahahainhalehahahahahahaa

Thanks, I needed that. Whatever movies you’re watching are terrible.

Forcing your way into Google to have “government techs” change something is NCIS level ridiculous. Conceivably they might get a court order to “force” Google to change. Funnily enough, the US and Mexico have the exact same levers to make a company do what they want. The US has more power to push those levers though.

What do you think “lite Republicans” means?

How did Democrats “reign in Israel”? You know other countries exist right? And they exert international pressure? Democrats have not reigned in Israel at all.

I’m so glad that your choice allowed you to claim moral superiority.

Here waiting for you to stop infighting and join us in the real world.

With 10,000 soldiers, they can search a lot more cars.

Sure. I understand if they feel they need to include that he claims it isn’t. (He hasn’t claimed it isn’t.) But the thing to do is to give your viewership context.

Journalists are way too quick to 'both sides" stuff. (Not sure how much of an American problem it is.) I don’t think I’ve seen a single article that didn’t include the quote from those asinine Nazi sympathizers at the ADL.

THIS, I like. Sure, maybe you have to report that he claims it isn’t. But bring receipts.
