They should study this. It should be pretty cheap since you only need to study one person from each era to draw conclusions about whole generations. This is how science and reason work. πŸ™ƒ

I think the fact that Zodiac wanted to communicate with authorities and the media tells you much more about the kind of person he was than the ciphers could.

A big problem with ciphers is that the more complex they are, the more likely the message will get scrambled in the encoding. An incompetent cipher is more secure than the best encryption methods; nobody can read it.

Carney told Trump and America to fuck off and then did a world victory tour. A weakened Trump, his agenda and popularity at the nadir of either term is having a good conversation.

Art of the deal.

I love it when the regime gets caught up in the symbolic because it means they're not using that energy to harm people.

Besides, Trump has probably never interacted with AI. I assume every time he logs in, it's just Zuckerberg, Musk, or Altman on the other end typing the response.

Ublock's easylist blocks that whole site. Anybody got a reputable source for this?

Just keep in mind that what they may be "planning" is Plan-R because they've burned thought plans a-q with their incompetence. If America ever recovers from it's fascist experiment, it'll be because we chose the dumbest Nazi alive to lead it.

I wonder how many times Gwen has had to explain to a young fan what an answering machine is.

I don't understand people who don't love his channel. How can you not be fascinated by how we turn burning coal or nuclear fission into cold air?

I meant it as a complement, jerk. As in, look how much better the UK is with traffic fatalities. But you're right, fuck those colonial assholes. Goddamn nation of thieves and drunks, get out of Ireland!

Is that European enough for you?

In the US, it's normally OK to hit someone with your car. Unless that person is a cop. The pigs will execute babies over that.

The real story here is about Google. Not only have they robbed websites of viewers with their chatbot answers, they're making less money than they were with regular old search results and ads.

The headline should be: Not even Google can make "AI" work, instead the chatbots have made the whole internet poorer.

I read a book called "Blackpilled" by Elle Reeve. The most shocking thing in the book was her interviews with "old guard" Nazis. Think people like Stacy Ketch in "American History X", or Patrick Stewart (RIP) in "Green Room". According to Reeve, the one thing they all said about the alt right youngsters was they were disgusted by how poorly they treated their women.

Rape is a partizan issue in the US, and conservatives are pro.

 
 
 

I've got an elderly cat that became my responsibility through... circumstances.

He's a lot of work. He has zero personality or charisma. Worst of all, he harasses me for wet food his whole waking existence. Food motivated is not the word, it's the only thing he knows, or cares about.

I'm not going to be sad when he dies.

 
 

I'm in the bottom half of Appalachia, if it's a regional thing.
