What’s the show called?

So police did not have to flag the file as AI generated, and don’t prioritize the review of these allegations by an actual human?

Did anyone tell that man he was unlawfully detained and has a civil claim against the government who knowingly and recklessly detained an innocent person?

I thought Panasonic makes those infrared ovens still. They’re still around!

Productivity gains are not across the board, and is a subject of scrutiny and debate.

But what AI really has done is basically redistributed American wealth to a smaller group of people, and therefore a smaller pool for the US politicians to focus on satisfying. If there is an AI bubble pop, what market watchers suspect is there’s actually no other American sector to mitigate what is otherwise a recession.

Canada is harming its relationship with the US?

Are we talking about the Americans electing a criminal felon as President, who appears to be facing allegations of decades long pedophilia, and seems to be part of a global scale honey pot and blackmail operation that targeted people around the world? Did that damage trust and credibility? And did we mention the Americans who seem involved in the debauchery, death, trauma, and abuse from trafficking vulnerable underaged girls around the world for this operation for decades are also not facing any justice? Instead, they all appear to be closing ranks and maintaining an iron curtain of silence?

Oh, and world leaders and dignitaries have to grapple with the knowledge that these same Americans remain in positions of power and gatekeeping positions throughout the US government system?

Plus this same US President is extracting wealth for his billionaire friends? Wealth that the Western powers created a rules based order together to generate?

By the time the Americans manage to uncollapse their justice system, and maybe codify some laws to avoid the total collapse of their society in their legislative branch, it will be decades.

Canada is not throwing a hissy fit, we’re literally working around a gasping goon where an ally should be, and we’re trying to keep the lights and the heat on for the rest of us until this blows over.

A cynic in me suggests that this may be a move to push people off the system and disenfranchise them entirely, or the new rationale to create a second class of people who are forced to live with increased digital vulnerability while a new class of numbers can be generated with different privileges.

OpenAI is the same as any other publicly traded corporation: it serves society, but this service primarily focuses on the shareholders. We’re looking at a vehicle designed to take money, and give it to shareholders. (private in this case or otherwise)

Focus on growth of data centres at public expense, AI slop, the circular nature of some of the investments going into AI, and the productivity (or lack of), are part of it. We are not looking at any exceptionalism. AI isn’t unique in its capability for catastrophic harm. What we eat and drink can easily be on that list.

AI and these American companies, just want the money train to continue unabated, and any regulation to go away.

I went back to springs, the mattress is no joke heavy.

I always thought it was a bit like Goosebumps, but science fiction.

Share bud, there’s ladies living in tents in hotel rooms. I’m considering it.

Thanks for spelling out how to get started for me. I’ll give this a try later!

Thanks everyone for the responses!

Question: I do remember the days of those RSS buttons everywhere. But I never managed to see the value in it.

Can anyone share their experience with following feeds, and how they consume this content? Is there some kind of spam/tracker free functionality that people enjoy? Are there apps out there that organize this in a way that changes the game?

I’d like to give it another shot, sorry for all the questions.

People are still getting detained for what appears to be arbitrary reasons related to their skin colour, and these detentions have led to violent incidents carried out by agents of the state. Even if you survive the initial arrest, the detention centres also appear to be lawless. Detainees are subject to additional violence or sexual violence, and the conditions are inhumane.

Vegas offers to be a honey pot for a conflict zone. Any sane person would rather visit another civilization.

A government agent altering a photograph to render an inaccurate image of an accused person will raise serious questions of bias. But also, any defense will likely now include whether the government has also digitally altered any other evidence concerning the matter, and whether that evidence was developed for public consumption or otherwise. to generate bias.

I’d say more broadly this raises concerns about how the White House directly controls or damages the credibility of the Judicial Branch. But, for the world audience, this should raise red flags about the (in)stability of the US in general.

I’m in the US as a failed state camp. Once the Americans can accept that position, there can be a proper rebuild.

I’d consider the label “competitive authoritarianism” as rather generous, and narrowly focused on just the internal processes of the US. I also believe that the current state of the US can be more defined once we expand the view to include the Americans have yet to fully explore the scope and extent of the Epstein files, along with the full collapse of the Supreme Court of the United States to corruption.

I have similar concerns for Canada: the lack of any check on the political party system itself. For the US, with only two functional political parties, the need for some checks is even more desperate. Originally I think the concern is that politicians are always the target of lobbying and potential bribery. They are technically the most fluid agents in the political system, and therefore one of the weakest points.

Perhaps what surprised both the Americans, and others abroad, is how there’s no check on SCOTUS Justices for what essentially amounts to the appearance of outright bribery and corruption. At that point, I would have expected a full audit of the suspect Justices cases should have been done and essentially a complete review of every case should have been committed. Maybe a temporary expansion of the number of Justices to include members of the American Bar Association and other Justice system participants should have been done to basically re-hear the compromised cases.

In any event, the damage to American institutions is far reaching, and deep. I don’t think the American public fully appreciates that even with the “frame” of what once was a democracy, the damage will probably take decades to recover from.

Apologies for the confusion then, I was following the rule to keep the original title and my comments in the body.

I guess it doesn’t help that the site is one of those live updating types with the headline adjusting.

The US is next door, and any conflict that arises would directly impact Canada across the board. Canada can expect displacement, logistical disruption, and economic consequences. I’d say these challenges would require responses from all levels of government.

Maybe as a good thought exercise, Canadians should turn their minds to what does American displacement even look like for us? Perhaps this can be categorized as emergency preparedness and disaster response.

Canada’s accustomed to dealing with diplomatic spats, difficult trade deals, or bad US foreign policy. But I’d suggest escalation of conflict in Venezuela, and domestically within the US, goes against the so called “firewall” strategy that North America had with the notion that the Oceans presented a natural and strategic defensive barrier. If American displacement actually happened due to regional conflict domestically, this would overturn a lot of existing assumptions.

What does absorbing large numbers of refugees even look like, would winter serve as a natural deterrent and how long, how many people can actually be taken in on an Emergency basis? Do we even have a means or criteria for returning displaced folks to the US?

We should confront these scenarios instead of dismiss them because the Americans appear to be steps away from them.

For those thinking about the switch, and happen to game, I understand that plenty of users are going to CachyOS or Bazzite as well.

If this were a terrible cake of mixed motives, one would be to throw out or damage the Epstein files in such a way that no one involved with those allegations can be tried.

Second, obtain war funding (Venezeula) to secure a coup, or to at least hold a significant portion of the the US indefinitely.

Third, in the event of complete failure, extort and move as much money out of the country that can resist tracing or recovery. Exit planning to leave the US on emergency basis.

I keep these three points in mind while looking at the Trump Administration.

From what I understand, Venezuela, Canada, and Russia are the primary suppliers of heavy crude. Even after so-called embargoes against Russia for the Ukraine-Russia conflict, ghost ships are still able to get product to market.

As for Iran, I’m not sure the US can even hold Iran, given their track record in Afghanistan and elsewhere. As it turns out, occupying another country requires huge troop deployments over decades.

Also, China’s built out relations through the Belts and Roads Initiative, meaning they’ve diversified the markets they can access.

One alternative plan, from an outsider’s point of view, is that the US has engaged in a long standing strategy of wealth transfer from its middle classes to its wealthy upper classes over decades. They’re in the process of breaking down their country for sale to its billionaire classes. While on paper it looks like a coup, the structure of the US suggests that the whole thing comes down with a whimper instead of a bang.

I suspect the billionaires are just waiting to see if they can get away with stealing the US, without the American people rising up and charging them for treason.
