Woah! How much money we talking about? If anyone wants to split it with me, you can "turn me in" 👍

I'll be happy to explain my incredibly boring, not even remotely illegal activities. Can't say them out loud here, though. That's for the FBI to fall asleep to 🙂‍↕️

I wonder how many times we can get the money? "Ugh, not you again! Why are we paying people for this‽"

We learned this lesson in the 90s: If you put something on the (public) Internet, assume it will be scraped (and copied and used in various ways without your consent). If you don't want that, don't put it on the Internet.

There's all sorts of clever things you can do to prevent scraping but none of them are 100% effective and all have negative tradeoffs.

For reference, the big AI players aren't scraping the Internet to train their LLMs anymore. That creates too many problems, not the least of which is making yourself vulnerable to poisoning. If an AI is scraping your content at this point it's either amateurs or they're just indexing it like Google would (or both) so the AI knows where to find it without having to rely on 3rd parties like Google.

Remember: Scraping the Internet is everyone's right. Trying to stop it is futile and only benefits the biggest of the big search engines/companies.

This seems more like a story about global warming killing jobs than anything else.

Of course, Trump's obscenely pro-oil stance is very Leopards Eating Faces.

The entire article reads like a comedy... Of errors. The ICE agents didn't know what they were doing. Didn't know where to go. Didn't have functioning equipment. Didn't know how to use said equipment. Couldn't follow basic instructions (navigation).

Forget the innocent civilian who was pointlessly harassed and detained for a moment: They are clearly wasting US tax dollars, driving around aimlessly, without proper training, accomplishing absolutely nothing.

It is astonishingly clear that ICE is incapable of doing the most basic functions of their job. Better to not even have immigration enforcement at all than this pointless waste of government resources.

This is the clearest demonstration yet that Republicans are completely incapable of governing efficiently. Or even governing at all! If they can't even implement their own Nazi/racist ideals properly, what makes you think they can do something as complicated as balancing the budget or managing a war?

They can't even get villaining right!

So basically... There's was no justice for rich people in the past either.

Couples that get roped into this hobby often tie the knot.

It won't stop until you're 64. The name was prophecy.
