Think of all the poor bots that can’t repost!

I remember the anarchit’s cookbook and knowing it was terrible at the time. One dumb friend was able to prove it while luckily avoiding seeious injury!

But what I also learned back then was criticsl thinking as a lot of early websites were just as terrible, but it was a bit easier to tell they were terrible because they did not have any sulporting information like references or examples. Today it is fairly easy to dismiss youtube videos where the person is enthusiastic or doesn’t show the thing from start to finish. The best auto repair videos were some guy with a handheld camera (probably a phone) walking through the process and explaining what they were doing and why. If they stuggle a bit, even better! My favorite channel for someone doing wordworking explains everything in a calm and clear way, shows the process, and explains the ins and outs and why they might have done it differently in the past!

The worst ones are someone enthusiastic showing five second clips and not mentioning anything about safety or how to know if you are doing it wrong. They are entertainment personalities and not a source of knowledge!

When used prices are not significantly lower, it is hard to make that choice over new with a manufacuturer’s warranty.

Used prices are ridiculous now.

Plus taxes and registration, which can easily add an extra 10-15% to the cost in many places.

Unlike a couple decsdes ago, the second hand market doesn’t really save that much either.

When the first three results look like high schoolers copied with slight wording changes from the same source and they are all written in an extremely passive tone, my assumption is AI. Questions on things like cooking temps are the worst in my experience, and I assume that is something which is easy to automate.

I want to party with Dan!

From the article:

The United States said the hackers sent emails, which included stolen excerpts from Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, to staff of his then-rival, Joe Biden. Both presidential candidates said such attempts took place.

I read this as the group attempted to send Trump’s email’s to staff of both candidate’s staff, but maybe it means both candidates confirmed the emails were sent to Biden?

Yeah, if you believe the center owner the robot was apparently purchased because of unreliable security staff that were also providing eyes on the scene.

They say Biden is still waiting to talk to Trump to this very day.

They feel like there is less crime, because they have bought into security theater.

To cause chaos. A nation arguing with itself will be less inclined to mess around internationally.

Sending things to both parties is more likely to cause chaos.

The suit is there to reduce fatalities and minimize injuries, not to avoid every poasible injury.

Sometimes there are situations where touch and feel is critical, although my understanding is that the preferred approach today is remote detonation where even the suit is away from the likely blast radius.

A two (or more) state solution is also a possible outcome. For example, Gaza and the West Bank could become Palestine as a separate country from Israel. There would need to be a massive change in borders for that to even possibly work out, but an independent Palestine is more likely to lead to eventual stability than mashing everyone together.

Which is different than Israel not existing.

You understand the difference, right?

Israel does not need to stop existing for the genocide to end or for the government officials to be tried for war crimes.

It isn’t like Italy needed to stop existing after WWII…

The continued existence of Israel does not require an ongoing genocide, so those are not in opposition.

If someone accused you of being pro-Trump and you said “I’m registered independent” do you think they’d be like ‘oh, nm carry on then’?

If they asked I would say ‘no’ instead of trying to dodge the question.

You asked about something specific, whether someone was ‘officially’ something and I answered the question. You asked a question that is apparently different than the thing you want to argue about, which is who they (currently?) support.

The mental gymnastics are just mind blowing with that crowd.
