  I agree, but courts have been partisan for a while. See judge Cannon’s handling of Trumps documents case and the supreme Courts handling of his freaking insurrection.

  I understand the way things are supposed to be. But it’s not the way they are. Courts are going to have to decide which side of history they are on.

  Fascists are good at using the fact that their opponents need to uphold the law against them.

  Your comment is correct as much as I hate it. But to the quoted portion, their opponents don’t need to. They choose to. And it drives me insane that they think that we can operate within the system the fascists are actively ignoring to fix this. The “normal way” things are done is gone, it’s time to stand firm and take action.

  My half thought conspiracy: The actual hope is to get people so reliant on AI that the fee is secondary.

  You’re already staying to see this in news articles where, "Chat gpt says Trump’s physical not possible," or that “gork calls elon top misinformation spreader.”

  Why are news outlets reporting on what some hallucinating AI says? To legitimize it. As people use it now they’ll become more reliant on it. It’ll be no different than, "just Google it "

  But they aren’t only going to do this to make a profit. It’s more than that. It’s about controlling the flow of information. Once people are reliant right on it they’ll adjust algorithms and black list information that doesn’t benefit them.

  Legitimately AI is trying to position itself to control information and by extension the realities of its users. And that is priceless.

  There’s no politics when everything’s mere existence is heresy

  Double it and give it to the next defendant!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Anything that might get Trump would probably have to be powerful enough to take out a whole crowd, and that’s just very unlikely.

  Hard disagree, Ukraine takes consumer drones and turns them into pinpoint bombers or ultra fast suicide drones.

  IMO the only reason political violence hasn’t been more common is people afraid of losing what they have. But they’re soon to lose it anyway.

  It’s starting to look like the oligarchs are going to replace every position they can with AI everywhere so we have no choice but to deal with its shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well the thing is, we don’t know. Maybe 10 is patched so well that no one is hanging onto a major exploit just waiting for EOL. Or so well that no new major exploits are found (extremely unlikely). Then so long as you’re just gaming or watching YouTube it doesn’t really matter.

  But someone could be holding onto one or someone could stumble into one. And all it takes is one.

  No no surely making the rich richer will help, it’s done so great the last 50 years!

  50501 is very active, we’re hitting the streets all the time. I’ve been at a demonstration almost every week for the past month and a half. Please, join us!

  Lots of states allow private sales with no background checks required. People should see if they live in/near one.

  If so hop on mewe, or some other social site, grab some cash and get you one! Gun shows are awesome for this too.

  The engineers did this, Teslas just kind of do this.
