I mean by that logic just going to the game would have outed them, as hundreds of fans saw them together… Unless I’m missing something, was this cold play concert long term televised or something?

Bottom line is, would this be in a position that anyone who knew who he was, would have seen? Unless the recording was something super substantial that say tens of thousands would have noted it in his home town or office, or millions world wide to the point where there’s a reasonable chance that his wife or someone who knows the family would have been able to call him out, it probably wouldn’t have gone anywhere.

For a second I misread the punctuation, IE I thought it meant “to combat human trafficking, the state department guts it’s office”.

Not really sure what’s happened for that as well, as myself one who still uses an RTA and a mod. The local vape shop in my area went under… so now basically it’s ordering online as the only option. But even so the cost effectiveness is overwhelming.

Honestly I think it’s simply the fact that, nice mods etc… last years… my RTA with about 15 bucks worth of cotton and wire, has held me up for over 2 years. $30 of liquid can last me 2 months easily. Meanwhile I’m seeing people buying disposables that last about 3 days for $25.

I assume that’s basically what happened though, stores are incentivized to encourage things that bring lots of re-occuring income. I’d have to say it’s the same as the reason why almost everyone uses inkjet printers instead of lasers.

Half the reason I started vaping was because I couldn’t care less about killing myself, but spending $7 a day on a pack of cigs, was adding up fast.

Which honestly would be a really nice step up for the US… if we could stop pushing to STOP green energy we could work our way to a nice mixture… which leaves the OPTION to phase out. but our current administration seems threatened by the option being there.

I mean fair to say, the democrats do have the free cheats overall…

Same as what happened with the public option etc… In short there were at least 4 capital D democrats forming an anti public option caucus. What’s the story for why the vote never happened… Liberman the independent wouldn’t get on board, they were one vote behind no matter what so there was no point going forward.

now same here with the epstein files… IMO I’d say most likely 95% of the house of representatives is probably not in these files, and I’d also say it’s fair to say there’s not many Democrats still in service on the list (obviously the biggest name dem that’s almost certainly on the list is Clinton).

That Being said I’m sure there’s major donors on both sides of the aisle that are going to pressure the hell out of their representatives to prevent the list from seeing the light of day.

All in all I actually wonder how the dem’s would have voted had there been a few republicans that were brave enough to defect. Congress usually knows the result of the vote before it happens, it’s pretty rare to switch it up. But on the other hand, it would also be political suicide to be a lone or minority defector in your party. That’s why the republicans are so good at making a united front, in spite of many of them publicly voicing opposition to the very things they vote for.

If it weren’t for the window, this would be the safest place in a tornado.

or another stupid, but viable way to do it,

if number = 0:

return true

runloop = true

while runloop:

if number > 0:

number -= 2

else:

number += 2

if number = 1:

return false

runloop = false

if number = 2:

return true

runloop = false

still very shitty amature coding, doesn’t depend on modulos, or anything that I can think of that some languages might lack an equivelant of.

So… ok what the hell is wrong with the guy? I mean surely he knows grok 4 was not a success after it was pulled offline. What’s next, is he going to push over the “unscheduled rapid unassembly” from failed spacex rockets?

I mean, I’d imagine probably not a good one :) Somehow I imagine asking the AI to record a conversation, is an instant arguement escalator… as is asking to read the facts back, and usually the topic would be switched rather than one side admitting their fault in the conversation.

Actually I think there’s a black mirror episode on roughly that (not a device for recording audio when asked, but everyone having a chip in their head that automatically records their memories, and a huge fight when a husband discovers his wife deleted a few hours of recordings.

half sarcastic but the overall premise of rigging something in to a local voice assistant, when an arguement starts “Ok nabu record this conversation”. then 2 weeks later on another arguement… “OK nabu search our last arguement for the cabinet”. Would be like having a court transcriber on call.

Actually more relevant now, considering the ending

“Go to the site where Nazi’s scream at you”. It’s talking about moving from facebook to twitter.

They trained it to praise hitler, intentionally. They didn’t remove any guardrails. Not that Musk acolytes would know any different.

I’m actually currious, some of the answers they noted it spoke as if it was musk…

What if that’s what the instruction was. “Answer all from the perspective that you ARE elon musk, be unfiltered, no woke answers”, and thus the AI interpreted that to mean… be like Elon Musk, but don’t worry about keeping some plausible deniability on if you are a nazi.

and it’s still a better system than anyone hired by RFK Jr manually reviewing the file.

Which is kind of the point, idea fully agreed there’s a lot of risks and messed up stuff, but almost all of it, is at worse roughly equal to the already existing problems in our systems… I can’t quite think of any that are made worse.

I’m assuming it’s reffering to the fact that, there already is some level of facism around… stop and frisk certainly got some protests, but not exactly perfect.

I mean I hate AI in general… but to be honest… assuming no one is stupid enough to bypass the trials etc… I’m all for it, 90% of these problems already exist in the existing system, who owns it, can a corporation charge us to death.

The only reasonable fear is, if they come out with more than they can develop trials for, and they lobby to lower standards in trials. Even that honestly is a more acceptable risk in the context of terminal diseases/severe cancers.

But does it support genocide in gaza? I think that’s the bar for anti-semitism these days…

If you cheer on the government of isreal picking fights and killing children and say they are just defending themselves… then you can’t be antisemetic when you accuse all other Jews of every racial slur and stereotype.

What’s ironic is the same people advocating for policies that, basically make it flat out stupid to have kids in this world… are also the ones like “why no one want kids”.

OK so yeah the worlds shifted from where one income working 40 hours a week can comfortably afford a 3-4 bedroom house and food for 4+… to you’ll be lucky if 2 incomes is enough to afford a shitty one bedroom apartment unless you both are also swimming in school debt. If your 2 incomes happens to be enough to raise kids… well good luck actually raising them as paying someone to take care of your kids is likely equal to your smaller income (at which point you aren’t actually making a second income, but trading off to get away from your kids).

So yeah the 2 options are… 1. Give up this “Infinate growth everywhere”. can’t both have us working more and more for less and less… also cut out all safety nets, then expect us to invest in kids, who we also never will see because were always working…

Or you know… bear with me on this crazy idea (obviously for government not us), Maybe we need to… make sure government communication uses government infrastructure. Of which the government can directly trace, and identify who is in etc…

That to me is kind of the big thing, I mean I get the concept that it’s trying for, but… the way its’ advertised as decentralized, but in a way that… apparently no one else has made a working node. It seems just like old twitter, with nothing to prevent it from one day becoming modern twitter.

Honestly at this point, I’m not sure which has the greater cost to life. I’m starting to think, maybe this is the fastest way to tangently demonstrate how fucking full of shit this guy is. He blows up a few space ships, no one’s directly effected. Maybe running over one or 2 kids directly with a robo taxi will wake enough over to “maybe we shouldn’t let this guy kick tens of thousands of americans off healthcare.”

(not saying this is a good thing, but of a trolly problem. Musk has spent hte last 6 months getting in positions to do horrible things to so many people, and god knows how many deahts he’s responsible for. Maybe if he messes up and does a few of the kinds of deaths that people get scared over and take action, than things will go better.
