  • Pentagon prepares for 'sustained' war against Iran as Trump calls for 'regime change'

  • I didn't do anything different in my response to you than you did to me but OK

  • I don't disagree with anything you said, except your classification of those actions as rational. I think framing the world and responding to it the way you described is completely irrational.

  • Democrats seek to reassure Europe about post-Trump America

    Jump

  • That last sentence could be true, but if the US can't keep national cohesion together the EU probably can't either. One of our big problems is cultural diversity providing avenues for division to take root. The US is infinitely more homogeneous than the EU. I don't think Europeans are prepared to act like a unified society outside of a few common interests. I still think they should try, but I also think that means something vastly different to citizens in the different nations of the EU.

  • Rich people don't give poor people stuff, even if it means they get more stuff too. They aren't rational actors. They have what should be already, and will one day be, classified as a mental illness.

    I skied directly into a treeThen rolled the dice in the dormitoryIt now burns badly when I peeI hope my mom is proud of meI only brought home an STD

  • As a Turkish citizen, I cannot stand this. Wake up! Turn to FOSS and Decentralized applications. The new pandemic is "identity verification" and every country is about to fall into this trap.

  • Along those lines, there's no technical reason we need representative governments anymore either. The reason representation was necessary was because it was clearly impractical for multiple reasons for all citizens to travel to the same place, debate the merits of proposed legislation, and vote on implementation. The internet solves those problems. The system hasn't changed because we're coasting on institutional momentum.

    Now, that is not to say that I trust any current government to implement such a system in a fair and impartial manner. However, all the technology needed to do so has existed for a long time now. The only things stopping us are entrenched power structures and a lack of imagination.

  • Man who shot a British woman in Texas after 'arguing about Donald Trump' won’t face criminal charges. A grand jury declined to indict him.

    QuitGPT goes viral as users cancel ChatGPT in political protest

    Jump

  • There are people here and other places on the internet who can make a difference in enterprise contracts as well. I am part of an AI pilot program to roll out ChatGPT at my company right now. You can be sure that I am actively pointing out that, among other things, OpenAI is being sued by several entities for stealing data when their primary promise to us is "we won't use your data". That feedback matters and some of us learn about that stuff from places like this.

  • Marine Detained in Minneapolis Says Feds Copied His Phone Without a Warrant

    Jump

  • I know, the article says specifically "sampled his DNA". That is not biometrics unless this author has no idea what those words mean.

  • Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal accuses DOJ of 'spying' on her search history from unredacted Epstein files review

    Jump

  • I understand the context but I like to imagine Bondi thought she was looking at that lady's internet search history and not her search of the Epstein files. It's funny to picture Bondi sitting there waiting for her to say something about pedophiles so she could respond "oh yeah, if you're so concerned about pedophiles why were you Googling this:"

    Then reading the first item in that list which seems to say

    "New Brazilian just arrived. Sexy and cute. 13 yo"

  • Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras?

    Jump

  • I can't say that's surprising but I have only heard of smart TVs having been confirmed to do that

  • Marine Detained in Minneapolis Says Feds Copied His Phone Without a Warrant

    Jump

  • Sampled his DNA? WTF is that for? Nobody has a DNA lock on their phone.

  • Pam Bondi Admits DOJ Has a Secret Domestic Terrorist List

    Jump

  • Same.

    Pam Bondi should die in a fire.

    Maybe that will help?

  • stop funding Big Tech corporations

    Jump

  • I am enjoying this same combo as well. Going on about 2 weeks now and it's pretty smooth sailing.

    Out of curiosity what is the issue with those two apps? I don't have any interest in using either one but I am curious why they don't function for you.

  • Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras?

    Jump

  • Theoretically they wouldn't have internet access if a previous occupant set them up unless one of your neighbors has an unsecured AP. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding you and you're saying you set them up on your wireless network after you moved in. Still a good move to get rid of them but I wouldn't be as concerned about them if the only AP they were set up to use was no longer present.

  • I suppose that's true but it does seem like it would be more effective to spend the effort tying her failures directly to Trump rather than letting him offer her up as the sacrificial lamb. People seem to think he's good at delegation and "business stuff" so hammer him with the mistakes his people make and force voters to remember how highly he once spoke of them.

  • What good is making her resign going to do? Don't get me wrong, she should be gone, but Trump put her there and she's doing what he wants her to do. Forcing Trump to swap one stooge for another doesn't accomplish anything except resetting the "Trump's AG did something bad" counter, which might actually be useful to him but doesn't help us at all. Focus on the guy who put this obviously unqualified person in charge of the DOJ.

  • If you're gonna game the system that hard just get divorced and keep living together. Remove the uncertainty.

  • I don't know about you guys but I'm tired of taking the high road. These fascist pricks have no morals. They know there are lines polite and reasonable people won't cross and they use that to their advantage. They have no such constraints. Every hesitation on our part exposes another crack that they can slip through and avoid consequences. Threats of social repercussions, financial penalties, and prison sentences will not win this fight. The only way this ends is if we take it all the way.

    Charge them with treason, execute them, and redistribute their wealth to the people. Anything less will only allow this disease of insatiable greed and lust for power to fester and one day return. Even going that far will only keep such men at bay for a generation or two. It will take constant vigilance and unwavering commitment to the principles of equality and justice to keep them out of power. We got lazy and gave them an opening. If we want to get rid of them we have to be willing to be as ruthless as they are in pursuit of that goal.
