The terrifying thing about drones is that by the time you know they are there it’s too late.

That’s my next move. I’m done with the mobile OS duopoly bullshit.
I’m also starting to self-host a lot of services.


Precisely my point, it will look a lot like The Troubles. The major difference is now the government has mass surveillance making it nearly impossible to carry out a guerrilla campaign.
For example, in a 1990s world, Luigi Mangione would never have been arrested. But we have a government who literally is capable of tracking every person through the global camera network, or through cell phone tower connections, or even random comments on social media.
And that’s before the authoritarian capture of the media cycle and social apps. The propaganda is intense these days.
All these factors make it excruciatingly difficult for a spark to light the fire, so to speak.


I despise this line of thinking. What, shoot an ICE officer? Then what? Explain it to me like I was 5.
You would have to have a national movement simultaneously to have any effect, and we can’t even get people to coordinate on voting.
Somebody needs to learn about a binary search.
(Assuming that there is exactly one ingredient causing the problem.)


Generally no. The proposed orbit for these datacenter satellites (which is still a ridiculous idea for oodles of reasons) puts them all in sun synchronous orbit, leaving nigh infinite safe paths to send a space telescope up through.


That’s great, but that comes from funding those things, not shutting down a different industry. It’d be better to shut down non-productive industries like bombing brown kids in the Middle East.


Nah, everything at super low orbits like these constellations decay quite quickly. Even in cases of total loss of all satellites (eg Kessler Cascade), they would all reenter within a couple years.
You could relatively easily just put your space telescopes above that orbit and they’d be just fine.


I dunno, every engineer not working on space almost certainly ends up optimizing some sort of ad delivery system. The tech industry is almost completely enshittified.


Advertisers avoid placing ads in controversially named pages. They are likely protecting their income


Not so much that this slop goes hard. It’s still AI garbage through and through.
But it is somewhat refreshing to see that the propaganda weapons made by the US are predictably being used against them.


I will never not be amused at how poorly AI does at both dice and LEGO.
Yo momma so fat she ate 1 Trillion parameters for breakfast
I guess vegans like to eat the onion.


That’s not what term limit means. You must mean term length.


I’m all for term limits, but 2 years is not nearly long enough to be effective in a job.
For sure, but if I don’t have to, that frees up the road for the people who actually need it.
It does give off that vibe but I can’t actually find any smoking guns. I’m gonna go with digitally painted on this one.


According to the article they have higher crash rates and fatalities because the drivers are worse. The cars themselves actually rate fairly high in safety standards.
That being said, I think the safety evaluations are flawed and don’t consider things like electronic locks.
Inventing lawyers was a mistake
