  1. Its more that they're returning to the old ways. Unfortunately it was a brief, exclusively western concept that justice was universal.
  2. There is a solution to it. Western Europeans did it before, we can do it again.

Wc2: the Elven Archers would comment "that you don't touch the other elves way."

Investors.

China's entire modern "economic miracle" is founded on housing as an investment vehicle.

You can in part blame Canadian Conservatives in BC, specifically Bill Vanderzam, Christy Clark, Gordon Campbell and Kevin Falcon; as well as federally, Brian Mulroney and Stephen Harper, for importing this behaviour and concept from Asia and its rise here. Initially in the late 1980s and early 1990s it was about attracting the elite of Hong Kong, who were afraid of what the handover of Hong Kong to the CCP would mean. (And rightly so, as it turns out.)

Vancouver BC is infamously unaffordable, and its entirely because of investors, both national and international using its real estate as a ridiculously effective investment vehicle. If you had purchased a home in the suburbs for 500k in 2006, that home would be worth well over 2 to even 3 million dollars today.

When Vancouver started capping out and hitting limits investors moved on to apply the same practices all over the continent.

Come now, modern day American Christianity has nothing in common with the Roman Catholic faith that spawned the Reformation in 1519, where the pope and his cardinals openly sold penances and salvation for money.

For everyone who thinks their vote won't count.

The anti-vaxxer BC Conservative Party, of whom more than half are functionally Qanon fuckwits, came within 18 votes of preventing an NDP(left wing) majority government in British Columbia.

18 votes, in an election of more than 2 million votes. Go and vote.

Obligatory shoutout to Digital Extremes for their Tennogen program.

  1. Harris wants to increase taxes on the rich. They stand to lose the most to that.
  2. Getting guaranteed government contracts is an insanely profitable gravy train to companies; particularly military spending.
  3. More so if you can actually insert your company into government logistics ( say, space flight, internet/communications and mail? )

Hypothetical crazy talk:

  1. Potentially they want to start being fully dystopian and being their own governments as a way to cement a "legacy".

It should be trivially easy to prove either way.

There will either be records on when it was changed or when it was discovered and fixed.

If there isnt, then it didnt fucking happen and Disney is lying.

No. I would suggest you actually read the study.

The problem that the study reveals is that people who use AI-generated code as a rule don't understand it and aren't capable of debugging it. As a result, bigger LLMs will not change that.

So, do nothing for 40 years while it gets progressively worse and allow countries to sign useless feel good things like the Paris Agreement?

I love the way Sir Terry Prachett wrote. In my opinion he is easily among the best authors.

But I like finding other authors that I don't know about. This is an issue in fantasy and scifi because there are so many bad ones, or weird ones like Michael Crichton, who penned some fantastic novels, but then went off the deep end and wrote an entire novel about how climate change wasn't real.

As such, a table like this is fantastic.

As I recall he went far right after meeting Laura Southern of the Canadian far right "Rebel News".

Which is also on the list as getting Russian cash.

I think she'd have more to be worried about with Robert Kennedy around talking to Trump. Trump is so easy to control and that dude needs help.

I actually read the public mueller report for myself. I know what it said.

As per the Mueller report: Russian trolling doesnt just affect the GOP.

And now we know that India, China and Iran(at absolute minimum) have their own efforts to that effect too. Israel has had the AIPAC for decades, so theyre guilty of it too.

That only works if the ads served are all the same or at least same time length. Which is very unlikely.

The core game loop is better than any of the pokemon games though.

I am curious as to why they took so long though. Were they waiting until the hype died down so it didn't look malicious?

I thought it was when he had a public meeting at his home with a fucking self-admitted Nazi.

I keep track of a bunch of subreddits that dont exist here.

That said, its really getting bad for bots there. Even formerly tightly regulated ones like space are bot trash now.

It's frightening to see that ol' Lord Sankey was dead on the money way back in October 1929 when he penned the "living tree" doctrine.

No, unfortunately you are wrong.

Gpt4 is a better version of gpt3.

The brand new one that is allegedly "unhackable" just has a role hierarchy providing rules and that hasn't been fulled tested in the wild yet.

Whattaboutism.

So are the Saudis.

But to deny that the known efforts of the Russians to fuck with the GOP and at least one known instance of them fucking with BLM is foolish. Go to the Canada subreddit on any news related to India and its full of atrocious asfroturf.

Russia and Trump proved it effective, now everyone is doing it.

Because he is, or at least was, part of the insider clique.

Even as late as 2014 he was still allegedly close enough to the Clintons that he and Bill could have a personal phone call hours long.

Seriously though, it is self preservation for the judge. If Trump loses, no harm in sentencing him punitively. If he wins, might as well sweep it under the rug to try and save a few lives of you and your staff.
