Sure, along with the occasional public execution, for optics.

The Fourth Amendment to the constitution disagrees. Blanket surveillance by definition flies in the face of our right against unreasonable search.

They downvoted him because he spoke the truth

99 percent of the time it works every time

It's special because it's ephemeral.

Are you really calling into question the well documented developmental effects of lead in human cognition and behavior

"Whoever can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities." and "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it."

etc, etc. So it goes

Agreed. To see "Never Again" morphed into "Never Again for me, Now Again for thee" has been one of the most heartwrenching, sleep depriving things I've witnessed since some deaths in my family.

I'm not against generating more electricity, I am against generating unnecessary emissions using obsolete combustion based mechanisms, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't put words in my mouth.

The current administration is enforcing the use of these obsolete technologies, and the likes of Elon Musk are using things like gas turbines in clear contravention of the law in places like Tennessee to satisfy power demand for a thing no one really wants anyway, except the already wealthy who see it as an opportunity to eliminate labor costs and make everyone more pliable and stupid than they already are.

It's worth noting that the same people profiting off the current AI bubble, are the same people donating a lot of time and money to elect and maintain this regime. Have you never heard of the network state? It is rather late in the day to play the fool.

Yes and all of the credulous rubes still whinging about how they "can't imagine" how it's gotten this bad or how much worse it can get, or how "this is not who we are" at some point should no longer be taken as suckers in good faith, and at some point must rightly be viewed as either willfully complicit bad faith interlocuters, or useful idiots.

Seems like citizens are the ones who need protection from law and immigration enforcement, considering the public executions we've all witnessed in the past week or so.

Electricity generation causes emissions, which enter the air. Cooling consumes water, as does power generation.

We are not generating this power using renewable energy. Have you looked out the window lately at what is actually happening?

Because we need air to breathe and water to drink more than we need pictures of garfield with giant tits

I just did this on Youtube for the first time in a while, and it won't show me videos unless I start watching things first, unless I go to Shorts, where I am presented with an infinite scroll of what appears to be deeply unsettling and uncanny short AI generated engagement bait videos.

It's baffling to me that they get away with this.

Don't threaten me with a good time

Congratulations, you have invented taxes

Because some reasoning is motivated

Their automated product killed a living creature. Yes, it is by definition their fault.

The grownups have left the building, and the brats have guns.

And this is why they don't care how many people they fire. The intention was always to automate the warehouses, and as long as they do it before they exhaust the workforce, turnover doesn't matter.

True, though Broadcom operates in a very similar manner in this regard.

Or they can do things like buy VMWare, gut the support/engineering/sales staff, hound and threaten their install base, and ultimatley profit greatly by stripping down and destroying a perfectly healthy if relatively late stage business.

Yes, and the solution to the fact that corporations have your information is not to give more people your information.

Radiation is good for you now, a little bit, as a treat.

Exactly! We don't get luxury space communism until after we defeat the nascent Terran Empire... or else we end up the Terran Empire

Feel like we're doing pretty well on the Star Trek timeline, tbh. Got to get through the Eugenics Wars

Where do you think training data comes from

>At the same age

Boomers have had significantly longer and better sustained market conditions to grow their wealth.

The extraordinary burden of proof is on the people making extraordinary claims, in this case that your thoughts come from an invisible, all powerful entity who we have never had any evidence actually exists, and wrote a book, instead of humans having written that book, as we have every other book that has ever existed. The burden of proof does not lay on those who say their thoughts come from biochemical and electrical signals in the brain, as all available evidence supports that assertion.
