Well duh.

If I were the Supreme Being, I would have started with LASERS! Eight o'clock, DAY ONE!

David Warner is good in literally anything though.

Sadly, there isn't a law against it.

Edit: But I'm sure it's one of the very important things that the Democratic Party is totally gonna do someday like they always do whenever they have a majority in congress and/or presidency. Just you wait

Is it worth noting that I only know this because of the spoof horror movie Repossessed?

Sure there are plenty of situations where services remain open and free (for now), like wikipedia, linux distros, etc. but we aren’t always that lucky.

It's got absolutely fuck all to do with "luck." It has everything to do with adoption.

Most people won't adopt things that aren't sufficiently pretty. They're more than happy being data whores for social media pimps because it's so fun.

That's the weird endgame here, the result will be stronger international China influence and less international US influence.

It's like the Generals willfully losing against the Globetrotters.

Cali tariff exemptions

Um, how?

The only way out of this at this point is .... to get out.

Oh, also, chicken tikka masala was invented in Scotland in the 1970s

And most of it wholly invented in the US, too. Hardly any Chinese takeout is legitimate food that is eaten in China, but an Americanized facsimile. Iirc almost all US Chinese restaurants are legit sourced from the same company in terms of most of their recipes and even their decorations and stuff like the "chinese zodiac" placemats

Fun fact: They did. Rush Limbaugh had a proud "keep spraying" campaign.

I remined of the time researchers used an evolutionary algorithm to devise a circuit that would emit a tone on certain audio inputs and not on others. They examined the resulting circuit and found an extra vestigial bit, but when they cut it off, the chip stopped working. So they re-enabled it. Then they wanted to show off their research at a panel, and at the panel it completely failed. Dismayed they brought it back to their lab to figure out why it stopped working, and it suddenly started working fine.

After a LOT of troubleshooting they eventually discovered that the circuit was generating the tone by using the extra vestigial bit as an antenna that picked up emissions from a CRT in the lab and downconverted it to the desired tone frequency. Turn of the antenna, no signal. Take the chip away from that CRT, no signal.

That's what I expect LLMs will make. Complex, arcane spaghetti stuff that works but if you look at it funny it won't work anymore, and nobody knows how it works at all.
