We can't even measure calories accurately, never mind predicting how much your specific body will actually absorb. Maybe we could be more accurate with vitamins and stuff, but I dunno.

'Something went tragically wrong', Netanyahu says

How many times has he made this claim, and how the hell does he say it with a straight face?

Tons of young male characters are voiced by women. I'm curious which anime you're referring to though.

There's literally been corrupt sheriff's caught ordering military hardware like a 50cal machine gun designed to be fitted on a helicopter...

I think this is (a particularly stark example of) the core problem here. The people who are supposed to be the ones protecting the rest of us from these right wing nutjobs are, well...right wing nutjobs.

I'm so not sold on this AI stuff. It just seems like a fancy new way to create problems.

Exactly, which makes the whole endeavour more of a guessing game than a science.

It's like a dog whistle. It's not in writing, but the cops know what they're supposed to do, and will be happy to oblige.

That's fuckin wild. How many 'secret societies' wear masks for parades and such? This stuff is getting so close to open fascism.

That's rad.

Unless you're a pirate 🦜

Anyone who works nights, or an evening job that runs late like a bar or something, is currently used to having the date change in the middle of their "day". I don't think it's really that big of a deal. It would be super weird at first, but kids who grew up with it would find our current system just as bananas as we would find this.

Zoom lenses are great, unfortunately most phones only have wide angle lenses.

It's still got this plausible deniability veneer, but you're absolutely right. We need to be seriously organizing to combat it.

I wish I could boycott capitalism.

For the good of everyone, except the ones who are dead. 🤪

Yup 🙃

That propaganda must be tasty, they sure do gulp it down.

It's not that they can't moderate their content at all, it's specific restrictions on how they can moderate. For example, not being allowed to ban someone who's running for political office, i.e. they're still salty about trump getting banned from twitter for a bit.

But yeah, it's fun to watch the right disregard their professed values whenever it suits them.

Do you own a cell phone though? Those things can collect way more data than any car ever could.

Yes good point... naturally "guzzling resources at planet eating rates" is quite expensive.

Have you been listening to the Falun Gong? This comment is bananas.

Believe it or not, sometimes real people actually disagree with you. It must be difficult to imagine independent thoughts that don't align with the narrative you follow, but they exist.

Funny how when China makes a bunch of cars it's "over capacity" and needs 100% tariffs, but Japan has been doing the same thing for decades and no one batted an eye.

China is threatening US global dominance and the US is freaked out and very motivated to cast suspicion on anything Chinese. Remember that "spy balloon" that turned out to be a nothing burger? I wouldn't pay attention to anything so insubstantial as "fears raised". That's all they're doing - raising fear.
