I don't think it's a matter of better or worse quality, the Healthcare being expensive and for profit in Mississippi leads to people just not going to the doctor at all

The 20 yr olds of now and the future will have far less luxury being forgotten than the previous generation I suspect

Honestly my first thought too. My Frontpage is half obviously Ai written posts these days, filtering by a couple years back would be a good thing

They want the regulation to be that Ai models cannot produce such images at all, not that producing them is illegal

Man what a awful looking site. I shouldn't have to crank my brightness to max to kind of read the words

I don't like being conspiratorial but it genuinely feels like the people at the top know some major catastrophe is coming and are just grabbing whatever resources they can while they can before retreating to their bunkers. Even the white house is trying to build a massive underground bunker using the ballroom on top as a excuse. I don't see why else they would all be willingly destroying society as they are right now unless they don't think it matters.

I'm kinda surprised with esim, wireless charging and Bluetooth noones just made a phone with a solid layer of glass completely surrounding it for 100% waterproofing

To some extent it already has, Ukraine had a press release a few days ago stating they had attacked and taken a position using only robots and drones for the first time

Ping pong paddles have two sides, with different characteristics for each side. Now the two sides have to have different colors so your opponent can see what you are hitting it with, where before you could use the same color on both sides and your opponent wouldn't be able to tell how the ball would react

You could make the argument that the grapefruit succeeded in its intention already, by being so good that humanity tends and manages whole groves of grapefruit trees

I think you would find very few people who think belt and road wouldn't be vastly superior to what the us is doing now

Sounds like the exact person we should be concerned about getting hit with scifi weapons to be honest

The person launching them sure does. This scenario reminds me of the time Russian hackers took over a US pipeline a couple years ago then immediately apologized saying they didn't want to cause a international incident and they would vet their targets better in the future. There are not many people who want that kind of heat. Like the first ayatollah is dead and the second is reportedly in a coma. The Iranian government is willing to pay that price and that's why they won. How many pirate leaders do you think are willing to pay their life so that their third of fourth successors can maybe collect a toll? Or how many are like Venezuela and you can kidnap one guy and the whole house folds.

If they're dropping mines then the navy will be the targets eventually.

In time pipelines can be made, no? 2 million per ship already gives a lot of room for exorbitant infrastructure projects to break even in the medium term

I'm not sure most people have the strength of conviction in their God to stare down the us navy like Iran does.

Trump saying recently that he hates hanging around successful people and prefers losers because he doesn't want to listen to other people's stories really speaks to the poor self esteem angle

Clearing the machine of money it already had sounds way more likely to get you into trouble than getting a free coke, I'm not so sure that's a benifit

Is there practical ways other than spending a couple billion dollars to protect yourself from nation state hacking groups? Especially if you'd doing something like internet connected medical devices? Honest question

I know at least on att prepaid they don't meter their own websites, if you have completely used your data up you can still access the website at normal speeds to change plans and stuff

I wonder if it's because of election interference. Foreign countries bot farms basically have free reign to assault the minds of your people 24/7 online, idk how you stop that outside of identity verification systems

Even if the software is mundane I don't think most people should want their country offloading sensitive spy stuff to a guy who's obsessed with the antichrist to the extent the Vatican itself is complaining he's going to Rome and giving secret speeches about it.

Because it's funny and they genuinely don't care whether or not they're bad guys

This is unironically what happens when society rewards sociopaths

I'm sure bezos will be really happy someone is being a hero for him in a war zone while he sails his newest yacht to wherever the new version of the island is.

If we don't care what the filling is you could just use sticky rice.

You forgot the part where he reset their email he didn't own and change their passwords so they couldn't get back into it

Peer pressure is apparently not even effective in getting billionaires who could easily hire whatever variety of escort they want from having sex with trafficked children, so I'm not sure in what world it's supposed to stop the billionaires from installing cameras.

Except that the vulture capitalists definition of walking dead also includes companies that are profitable and healthy but not perpetually expanding and multiplying revenue every year. God forbid a company grow, reach some sort of local cap on size, then just comfortably exist to deliver a good service without trying to extract everything it possibly can from every customer. That's not walking dead and if all of the companies in the US were satisfied doing that this would be a much better country to live in.

That's not all tariffs. The Ai boom is at the point where some memory manufacturers are selling their whole production capacity a year in advance.
