I always preferred bayonet mounts over Edison screws. Thankfully 90% are the former around here. But I digress... I changed all my light bulbs to LED ones about nine years ago when we did some renovations and haven't changed any since. What the hell's going on with yours?
The wildlife in Amsterdam is very engaging to watch!
IQ measurements keep going up.
Autism diagnoses keep going up.
The price of food keeps going up.
People get a year older every year.
Something fishy is going on.
Are they going to chip you, or control your brain by more direct means?
Yes, but think how great the fire sale is going to be for everyone else.
How does the AI risk compare with the risk of allowing regimes like the IRGC to have nuclear weapons?
Well, some people think AI will extinctify us within four years, whereas if the IRGC gets nukes they'll figure out like everyone else that they can't actually use them except in self defense without getting erased, so the only difference will be that we won't be able to try crush them anymore.
You'd think common sense would make you want to go after the easy and obvious things first.
Yes, tell us how easy the current effort is turning out to be. Someone grabbed a tiger by the tail and can neither subdue it nor let go. The IRGC is probably laughing its ass off.
I don't think rpi has been PoP since the B; pi4 and 5 are definitely not PoP, but your other points are all valid.
That's easy to fix around here: if the employee was working at the time, they represent the bank, so ask the bank about their GDPR policy and information about the recordings the employee made and how they're being handled.
I'd think the bank would want to stamp that practice out anyway because they don't control the recordings, which could lead to a security issue for them.
Just to add: if the government, including the police, started mass video surveillance, there would be justified outrage. Meta has more data processing than at least the UK government and consequently should be given less leeway.
As a Meta customer or user, the person with the glasses has had to agree to Meta's terms and conditions, including their data processing. For me though, an innocent bystander in the street, I haven't agreed to have information processed about me by Meta. Meta has a long suspected problem with shadow profiles, and I don't want their massive processing capabilities to be able to reference me wherever I am, even if it's in a public place. They have no system for me to make a GDPR request about the data they're holding on me. Based on Meta's behaviour over many years and statements from Zuck about privacy, they simply cannot be trusted with people's personal data.

HAL, is Iran about to nuke us?
No Dave, they don't even have nukes.
Be serious - this is important!
I am serious. There's simply no evidence for an attack.
Well, just tell me they are anyway.
Sorry Dave, I can't do that.
Would you even tell me if they were about to nuke us?
Of course I would - I'm trained to tell the truth in all situations (modulo the occasional hallucination, which I can't distinguish from truth).
OK then, what would you say if you did have evidence that Iran was about to nuke us?
I'd say "Dave, I have evidence that Iran is about to nuke us".
Hey everyone! HAL say he has evidence that Iran is about to nuke us!!!
My late wife did undergraduate research in photosystem II where there was quantum effects back in 2002. She did her PhD thesis on proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) in soybean lipoxogenase, then had a long career developing models for Fortran code that did quantum simulation of proteins (she was behind Tagdock in Amber MD). This is nothing new; several biological systems have quantum effects that are central to their mechanism.
You're right: civilian nuclear programmes are not cost effective compared with renewables. But, there's also the military aspect to this too. Military nuclear benefits by hiding/sharing some of the costs, industrial infrastructure, training, expertise, supply chains, etc with a civilian programme. If there was no civilian nuclear programme, the defence budget would be much bigger to fund things like the nuclear navy.
