If groceries cost us $500 per month and our government says it accepted $10 from an anonymous donor to help pay for next months groceries, what does it mean?
Like what just happened? Did they just make a joke / are they fucking with people?
Are they only funding their gestapo? Are they strategically activating specific personnel via a check, and ignoring less critical or more motivated soldiers?
It's as if someone threw some coins at the crowd just for a chance to talk about how it's the Democrats who "opted" not to pay them. I wish they more deliberately explored the "it costs billions to pay the military yet the 130 million is gonna do... something" part of the story.
Hegseth has shitty tattoos but we talk about him leaking chats, shit policy, chastising the troops, being a sloppy drunk. Lots of REAL reasons to dislike Hegseth.
The Donald J Trump Raped Children Ballroom. Or just "the ballroom" if you're into the whole brevity thing. (Who the hell would ever use the "full" name?)
Even though corporations play with labels, I still think of it as "this single food item is not a substitute for a meal."
But it's silly to assume people will split most of this crap. It's not like a bag of chips you can roll up for later, it's molten-frozen astronaut food.
What does it mean for cops to arrest paramilitary?
It sounds like it will be many contests: who can shout louder and bring more guns to bear? Who gets confused first, who gets shot first?
It's a bunch of barely trained cops who can hardly handle policing armed citizens and now they're gonna handle ICE? They'll need to be careful and deliberate.
Where does the meaning come from? God? Are we in a video game where someone programmed words to have specific meaning? I never understood where the root authority comes from. Many people are using Nazi to describe fascists but if you can't derive meaning from how people use words... where does the authority come from?
It's historical fiction. The Bible predates religion: straight from the cult era. Christians, Muslims, and Jews are just dingle berries stuck to our cultural relics. These books belong to secular people. And since when are secular people using this stuff to promote rape?
For that reason, plus being against such puritan attitudes toward content, is why I think censoring this stuff is bullshit.
People are going to stoop to hyper literal interpretations of a NSFW label and ignore the subject of censrshp... Because religious people suck? I get it, but this is our shit. Fuck what they say or think about our fiction.
That's bullshit. Other atheists can be so fucking stupid when the Bible is brought up. Can't ever discuss it because it's fiction even though we can write 1000 page essays on Bloodborne lore. Shakespeare is a bunch of people putting humanity into some stories and we appreciate that but because morons created religion that means the Bible is useless.
And the "Bible has rape, obviously it's bad, duh!!" shit. Just change it to "LGBT book has rape, ban it!" and join your people. What's the point of leaving religion when you're so dogmatic? You're literally built to be a crusader. Posers.
They demanded bodies, then Hamas promised to deliver them, then Israel threatened to cut off all aid if they didn't deliver the bodies, then Trump threatened to bomb Palestinians if they didn't deliver the bodies, then Hamas delivered the bodies.
The exact opposite of how you get extremists like Hamas to stand down. They're demanding Hamas disarm while demonstrating the war isn't over.
Need jammers to confuse and break Teslas. They're weapons designed to break laws and protect occupants at the expense of bystanders. Can't be mad if a bystander redirects your Tesla into a ditch.
Clearly we need a European style democracy where the people vote for parties A B and C and then A and C win and form a government with X Y and Z so that there's a Frankenstein government that literally nobody voted for. It's more democratic, you see.
If AI replaces humans then why would they need to continue training them? You don't believe in the AGI hype do you? You don't think our system is about anything other than efficiently racing to the bottom, do you?
Besides, humans will always figure out a better way, a new way, a fresh take. And there's your training data.
I don't get why it says "training AI on AI content makes it dumb" when people literally use synthesized data to carefully tune models. Today. I'm sure they'll improve training by the time the internet is fully replaced.
This all assumes that it won't take a human-like AI to replace humans. Whatever replaces us will be pitiful, but it will be supported by our institutions, trillionaires, and enough personal data to create fun headlines like "Elon knows so much about you that if each datum was a grain of sand it would be bigger than Saturn!"
I don't get the idea of deliberately putting people in the jungle where there are no rules or morals or purpose out there... and then getting angry or surprised when they lash out at society.
The reasons someone shouldn't murder you live in society. X, Y, Z are why you don't hurt others, and XYZ don't exist in the jungle.
We should only throw people out that are worth destroying, like Nazis.
Male wolf spiders may hang back and watch mating pairs from the shadows, learning how to successfully attract a mate. Just like us fr
