Agreed, though that might be the way to actually get people who aren't already opposed to stupid warhawks saying stupid warhawk things to apply some critical thinking to what's being proposed. Because I'd say almost everyone can tell at a glance how stupid this idea is, but a lot of trump supporters wouldn't apply the slightest bit of critical thought to something that came from trumps Institute of Peace.

Which isn’t quite how capitalism usually works so 🤷‍♂️

It still is how capitalism works, lots of people want to buy a product, then companies will sell it. It's not good will it's just business sense.

Guessing something similar to the toilet paper aisles during covid.

Which I gotta say also is one that was funny when basically this was done in the US just before the 2020 election... where they showed the shelves of how the stores currently were, followed by a "this is Biden's america".

There's lots, but just like everything, very few people actually can stick with and use them. Probably the thing that I think would be a logical feature in most chat programs, would be if say you put in your timezone into the client somewhere, then when you type a time you put some character before it like *3:30pm - the chat client could determine your timezone, put it in chat as UTC, and each recieving client could automatically convert it to their users timezone (and I suppose some kind of tag to make it so people know it is already translated to their timezone).

rooted in a well-documented pattern of unfair trade, subsidies, intellectual property theft and surveillance

I have faith in America, there's no way we're losing to china in patterns of unfair trade, subsidies, IP theft and surveillance.

It's the scale rule... steal a $25 disk, jail... steal 2 billion dollars worth of media... bailout.

From what I've seen, there's definately a vocal group of little people, that consider it a slur. What percentage of actual people with the condition that think it I have no idea

Agreed that's trying to preserve the workaround, without fixing the problem.

Problem is it doesn't matter, the reality is, demand for jobs, and people who need to survive... isn't a number guaranteed to match, and between automation, and wages falling so far behind inflation that many households need 2+ incomes just to keep the lights on, an unemployment problem is inevitable.

If AI actually can cut enough jobs, that the number of jobs available, is less than the number of people who WANT to work, then all we need to do is make it so people don't HAVE to work.

Wasn't even close to saying he shouldn't be in jail, just saying the story puts so much emphasis on facts that literally have zero relevance to what actually happened. At bare minimum that should be manslaughter, assuming 100% of his story as true and the gun went off accidentally.

Honestly based on the heated arguements before, I'd be skeptical and lean towards murder.

The thing I find somewhat odd of the story, is if the facts are accurate, what's even the point of the trump arguement. It feels like the article is flooded with basically details not directly related to the shooting. The "relapsed alchoholic that had 2 glasses of wine", the topic of the arguements (and even the specific things said in them).

Actual relevant facts of the shooting.

Dad had an arguement with the daughter.

Several hours later they had an arguement on guns, Dad brought out gun to show her... then claims he accidentally shot her.

Point is the arguement doesn't really hold relevance, Dad either horribly mishandled the firearm, in which case the situations up to it were irrelevant.

Or dad murdered his daughter in a fit of rage.

I don't think so... I honestly think the direction anyone supporting the AI bubble wants, is going to be streaming games. You won't run them on the PC... they will run out of a data center and your inputs will go back ot the data center, You'll own nothing, you'll adapt to paying a subscription price for single player games, hell instead of monthly you could pay by the hour or minute.

Because the whole idea is to discourage people from behavior that is likely to cause bad things to happen. Obviously when bad things happen we go "I wish someone had stopped the person before people died".
