Just tell all the other computer related businesses they’re aren’t going to have any new customers.

Ameritech is being weaponized. Get out while you still can. Degoogle. Demicrosoft. Deapple, Deandroid etc…

Is anyone held accountable?

And nothing of value was lost that day…

Tomorrow’s future, today!

NYT is the apologist PR arm of this enterprise. They didn’t just wake up. They are hoping the public won’t put 2 and 2 together for as long as possible.

Which is weird because every legitimate argument they make against Chinese AI is at least as strong against US AI.

Kinda weird to tell the world you can’t be trusted.

Debt, the rope you hang yourself with.

…but, if you were to take the noose off, from around your neck, and give it back to the parasitic creditors…

Hmmmmm.

I still can’t believe prediction markets exist. Every bet requires a counterparty and information asymetry means its not a market, its a killing field going up against rigged bets just like this.

Billie, you’re a genius

Enough to be a fool

A fool to gamble everything

And never know the rules

Some of us can only live

In songs of love and trouble

Some of us can only live in bubbles

Surely the leopards would never eat MY face.

Go into an indigenous community like a First Nations reserve, or rural Africa where the people still practice subsistance hunting and tell them this.

Let me know how it goes. They’ll see it as bigotry. Deservedly so.

The sustainable hunter gatherers left on earth look poorly upon your high-and mighty opinions perched on top of a fossil fuel powered agricultural-industrial complex that has eliminated most wilderness and biodiversity for monoculture farms. Humans are about 36% of earth mamalian biomass. Livestock is about 60%. Wild mammals are down to 4%.

It’s a similar case for vegans. Their moral superiority is founded on an agricultural-industrial reality that while one of the superior options, practices an unsustainable method.

Your righteous indignation is an error. Your perspective is flawed because it’s anchored in a tiny worldview’s normalcy bias.

Don’t be that person. Something something, stones and glass houses.

A fair point, but I believe a mistaken one. Humans’ evolutionary niche is it’s intelligence. Our tools are an integral part of that.

From this perspective, would you say the lion hiding in the grass to ambush its prey is just cheating? For a fair fight it has to be in open terrain? We all use the gifts at our disposal.

To your point “OP” tools can easily scale to beyond fair chase. There is no line that separates what is and is not acceptable. Its up to the hunter to decide for themselves, and the public who regulates them. Within the hunting community, there are constant battles between bows vs rifles and even spear and atlatl “purists”.

Edit: I swear I’ve met more than one “barefister” too, but it was online, so I couldn’t tell if they were serious, or playing devil’s advocat.

There is no contention. We are completely agreed and I don’t believe I’ve said anything to the contrary.

Ethical hunters have a core principle referred to as “fair chase”. The animals have to have a reasonable chance to escape, or it’s an unethical slaughter, not a hunt.

For example, a dude with a bow or rifle in the forest, where the prey can run away is fair chase. It’s a battle of skill, and stealth. You have to outsmart the prey.

A dude with his buddies, drones or helicopters or fenced in “wildlife” preserve are not hunters. They are slaughterers. There is no fair chase.

If this person was a hunter, then he should be pleased his prey exercised its rights to fair chase, and give kudos for making the escape through him. A bold move worthy of recognition. In a life-and-death battle of wits, skill and instinct, the winner was worthy.

If this person was a slaughterer, then fuck him, he got what he deserved.

Either way, this is a 100% win.

Global economic slowdown? No problem? Let me kidney-punch you in the tourism. Now it’s a problem!

The vice president, who is was Catholic, discovers excommunication.

You can’t solve scalping when its a core function of LiveNation’s ecosystem. Scalping is the business model.

My chicky nuggies! ReeeeeeeeEEEEEEeeeee

Be grateful they are incompetent.
