I foresee a non-zero chance that this could backfire and their new ever-expanding military budget gets used on smaller weaker nations and then as an excuse to divert funding away from services that people actually rely on.

That guy was in 1895, which is a hundred years after Ben Franklin suggested it, but neither of them were responsible because it wasn’t adopted until the early 20th century in Canada, Germany, Austria, and the USA roughly in that order.

I think France should retaliate in this specific situation but if their standard procedure were to take 100 eyes for an eye then the world would be burning.

Sounds like Casus Belli to me, lets fucking go

Wasn’t DST invented in America? How did it even get adopted by the EU?

I’m also seeing that it was formerly used in Russia, India, South America, and some parts of Africa, and it is still used in 4/5ths of Canada and 1/3 of Australia.

Well good for Japan and SK, fuck China, and bad for the entire rest of the world.

Sucks to suck, this timeline is in the find out phase.

I said any productivity gains are offset by loss of quality and capability, and I actually think that’s especially true in your coding example due to large measurable increase in security flaws.

You gave a shit example and now you’re tripling down on it.

Lmao you really came back after that ratio?

Skill Issue

I think it is you who forgot what I said. AI is useless.

AI code has singlehandedly increased vulnerabilities across every industry because the shit code is pushed by people who don’t know what they’re doing.

Net Negative.

In theory they get super rich, but in practice the early adopters of AI seem to be hemoraging money as a result of it. It doesn’t actually make the bare minimun content so they end up hiring humans to fix their bullshit and the end product is worse than just using humans.

Nah AI is just garbo in general. Any productivity it gives has a noticible drop in quality and capabilities that result in net loss.

I’ve never read or enjoyed any AI works so far, tbh.

If I had a spare $2 Million I’d build one of those fancy Lorentz Tesla Cannons and see which dystopian scifi tech wins. Gonna be loud af either way.

How it works is that a coil is charged with high enough voltage that it generates an electromagnetic field which keeps it from disintegrating until the voltage drops below the threshold such as coming into contact with an object. The required voltage depends on the max range and the gauge of wire which connects the rod and the quick discharge capacitor banks, but in the range of over a hundred thousand volts is expected. It’s basically a rechargeable short range EMP: it will literally melt electronics near the contact point even behind other objects. Electronics such as an expensive sonic weapon.

I suppose a much cheaper solution would be a jar of flammable liquid and a burning rag.

For me there is a videoplayer on this post that contains the full clip.

The iZEV program began in 2019 I believe, and given the timeline these sort of investigations and hearings take I would bet they did catch it pretty quickly.

Rather than comparing VINs another way to compare would be to go off the monthly or quarterly tax statements from corporations comparing sales to volume of rebates that way, but if they were committing fraud on the rebates that means they would also be committing tax fraud, but I have absolutely no idea how it was actually implemented I’m just spitballing here.

TBF China and Russia are pretty much the only nations actively using widespread facial recognition technology literally everywhere not explicitly banned.

I don’t use very many extensions, but it works with all of the ones I’ve tried such as uBlock Origin.
