When cities can’t afford other things they usually cut them to save money.

I’m not sure Flock is the exception. Might be, though. The US is a shithole.

We’ll see. This court decision will determine if distress codes are destruction of evidence, which is different, but I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to think they’d extend that to wiping your phone before traveling too. Why not? They hate you.

The only real defense would be having a burner, it’d break too many things to make it illegal.

just wipe your phone

They’re testing that in court right now. That might be “destruction of evidence” after all.

But if I don’t get downvotes, how will I know that I’m making people mad?

Also, how does that work? Can’t they legally force you to enter your password too?

No, because forcing someone to enter a password is “compelled speech” and against the 1st Amendment. It’s also testimonial, which means compelling that speech would also be self incrimination, which is against the 5th Amendment.

Don’t ask me why forcing someone to make a hand gesture is not also compelled speech and not testimonial. The Constitution is mostly nonsense being interpreted by life appointed morons who interpret things however they like.

There’s a reason you’ve been trained to knee-jerk hate AI, who benefits?

The fuck does this mean? We’re being screamed at to love AI and use it for everything.

Glass is not a car. That’s a few components on a car.

Yes, some processes can be fully automated. No, we can not fully automate the assembly of a whole car. It’s still too complex.

You can just play a different game. It’s a toy. This shit doesn’t matter.

I haven’t watched a movie in ten years. Or TV show. Or a video longer than 15 minutes.

It’s just not one of my hyperfixations. It’s different for other people, as this thread demonstrates.

Their logic is “women are cattle that exist to breed” and so there’s literally no argument in favor of abortion you can ever make.

The only thing that ever convinces them is if a woman becomes a person to them, so perhaps a daughter or other family member, and so they’re able to justify her abortion because she’s a person. This will never be applied to a woman they don’t know.

The US’s origin as a settler-colony shines through with how its legislature is set up, it effectively gives land a vote. A few settlers in the great state of Nowhere have as the much more populated coastal states.

Was there anyone operating under the illusion that it was bulletproof?

Like, a lot of people? They treat their Constitution like a sacred text instead of something that should have been scrapped and rewritten after the Civil War.

Well of course, the problem is that the law exists to punish poor people. I’m just saying, fines could be made into something devastating.

For instance, they have to pay everything upfront or their company is sold off to pay the fine.

I dunno, a €890 trillion fine would be good too. Bankrupt their company.

Lex is also a “12th level intellect” i.e. one of the smartest people in the universe.

Porky is a dumbass that thinks he can use a chatbot to replace his workforce.

On the other hand, there’s not much normal humans could do against Zoom. They need superheroes to beat him.

Not so for porky. He’s just a guy.

People would vote for a government that gave them cheap electric cars. This has nothing to do with needing to win elections, it has to do with pleasing daddy US and daddy doesn’t want the world to stop using oil. Europe is a US neocolony.

It’s a good thing that China subsidizes EVs. We should be doing that too!

She’s covering for them.

pls pls pls first LLM senator

Maybe we can trick it into giving us universal healthcare.
