The number one justification for cryptocurrency in my book, even if it's less safe or convenient or even has small fees. Your business being subject to the whims of payment processors is ludicrous.

Even with this being the justification, they could just say they won't be working with the customer in the future, not literally steal their customer's already earned money.

Who would it be "curated" by if not AI?

Any form of auto-generated summary online is from AI

What? My issue is that Americans are getting screwed over to help illegals. No more illegals = higher wages for Americans.

You're clearly not that high IQ because you're not able to make the leap into understanding that your own personal experiences don't matter on a societal level, everything is averaged out. A society that is on average low IQ will on average be a low achieving shithole, and vice versa. (Barring say discovering a bunch of oil under your barren sand dunes)

Yeah you go do that in the Congo. Get some up close and personal research done
Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Sunday July 21, 2024 @03:10AM (#41023123)
Black kids start off lower IQ than White kids and environment doesn't change this, hence IQ isn't environmentally determined. Not sure what you don't understand about this.

The clear correlation with every positive aspect of society
So we shouldn't use AI at all because it's often inaccurate? I think it's fine as long as it's made clear that it's not totally reliable, both in widespread public knowledge and in UI disclaimers.

It does actually.

I fully support increased wages for menial jobs, as long as they're not going to illegals
Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Saturday July 20, 2024 @08:19PM (#41021379)
Yes it does, that means "sounds correct."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota_Transracial_Adoption...

Black kids adopted by well-off White families remain lower IQ than White kids adopted by well-off White families. In a world that actually gave a shit about the truth this wouldn't be news to you

From the same scientists that brought you "men can be women" and "race does not determine IQ" and "illegal immigrants totally don't commit more crime guys trust us". I heckin love science!
It's AI-generated, like anything AI-generated you should not assume it's totally accurate. I would support some kind of disclaimer if it's not already there.
Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Saturday July 20, 2024 @07:50PM (#41021193)
Yeah that is also pretty pathetic, agreed.

Sure, if you want us to turn into a violent retarded shithole. I'd rather keep us above Mexico's average 87.5 IQ, thanks.

Nope, it's IQ. For example: low IQ societies tend to be more anarchist, high IQ ones tend to be more authoritarian.

Illegal status isn't collected in a lot of insane places most heavily affected by illegal immigration, any stats on the subject are not complete

No idea, but housing and jobs in many sectors are getting extremely scarce in Canada's cities due to their insane immigration policies aiming to bring in """skilled workers"""

1. We're talking about illegals. This is the left's favorite motte and bailey.

2. Sanctuary cities and sanctuary states choose to not make immigrants, illegal or otherwise, report their immigration status when arrested. Those stats are garbage.

For example, Oregon:

> Your country of birth, immigration or citizenship status information should not be stored or shared by state or local government agencies or law enforcement.

Way to just ignore the completely open Mexican border and the wave of diploma-milled Indians coming in from Canada. These are not the envy of anyone

Yeah lets just turn America into Mexico, no big deal. What's the worst that can happen? Let's make the national average IQ 87 and turn ourselves into a shithole so we can have people to do menial jobs for slave wages.

Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Saturday July 20, 2024 @07:19PM (#41020958)
We'll take the proven geniuses, not roll the dice that someone generations down the line might not be a wage-deflating leech.
Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Saturday July 20, 2024 @07:18PM (#41020952)
>we can’t find enough locals to do

BECAUSE THE WAGES ARE DEFLATED DUE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. How is this so hard to understand?

Re:10% of Cubans have left Cuba in the last year on Saturday July 20, 2024 @07:17PM (#41020947)
You're not concerned about the crime because you're well off enough to not be affected by it. Hundreds of Americans have been killed by illegal immigrants recently. If you love them so much move to Mexico/Cuba. Not welcome!
