There is no way to balance mass surveillance with "privacy, security, and the freedom that we enjoy in this country"
Count the sheer number of audio and video recording devices connected to a worldwide network within 100 feet of you. Right now.
Any desire to maintain “balance” was lost long ago. Around 1949 to be precise. When the fucking instruction manual for 1984 was written.
..Students in higher education are supposed to specialize in a subject, not in a fucking company.
You sure about that? Follow the scholarship money yet? Just how sponsored, is that degree based on millions of campus funds “donated” out of the tax-deducted goodness of a mega-corps bleeding heart?
Be careful what you ask for. Education coffers, just might get it.
Perhaps after 165 million games played there is little substitute for the real thing. But given how AI (and humans) often learn a game to the level of building strategy, is there a reason these AIs weren’t merely trained by first reading every Stratego strategy book?
I’ve not heard of a single Grandmaster that has ever reached that level by simply playing the game of chess. They read about it. A lot.
I think SI is a fine title because despite all tricks it can do, it still fails in basic ways that even idiots don't. As such, Subpar Intelligence is the title it has earned. I don't need anyone telling me about hypothetical futures because I'm talking about right-damn-now.
Right-damn-now, is ToddlerAI.
A four-year old little fuckshit who isn't mature in any way. Easily persuaded and often delusional. Can be triggered by bending over Madagascar to abuse nonsensically in an asinine-flavored sentence with little more than an educator testing integrity.
..I replaced the hard drive and battery as it was of an era where things like replaceable batteries and hard drives were a thing. That one even had two slots for hard drives.
Repairing capable hardware to extend the life of tech and create an actual sustainable product?
Why that's certainly no way for the Go Green Generation to fill landfills with fashionable addiction and crash a stock market with a Magnificent amount of corrupt capture..
you really don't need to pay for winrar
Only if you include an alt.binaries addre, hey what gives man? This USENET subscription ain't gonna pay for itself.
Maybe that's actually a measure of how bad the inflation is.
The electronic price price tag on the grocery store shelf is updated in HFT real-time now, tied directly to the price-per-gallon of diesel fuel at the pump.
Inflation has no fucking idea how to measure the economy anymore when it has become that corrupt.
(HP GLP1-flavored Marketing) "Yeah. Thinner. That's the shit."
(Apple) "Uh, just so you know..even we filed Bendgate in the Lessons Learned folder."
based on what customers near individual restaurants are willing to pay..
I suppose this pricing comparison is only between McVendors, since they don't even make the same product as the restaurant next door. (The Mom and Pop restaurant down the street from McDonalds isn't a multi-billion dollar conglomerate selling custom designed addiction in a food wrapper.)
Lame to blame this on AI, but I doubt enough customers are going to tolerate some Zillow-grade pricing scam for McShittles sprinkled with food crack. A Big Mac for almost $7? I guess the measurable decline in sales based on this kind of greed is just the fine print franchise owners are not willing to talk about.
Communism has never been for the people. Just like with the fascists, communism is all about supporting the state, which is all about supporting the people in power. Politics is not a horseshoe. Politics is a ring. There is no real difference when you get to the extremes.
This, is labeled accurately Insightful while headline writers make it sound like enslaving citizens is a “curb” of inconvenience. A mere speed bump of a travel problem.
Time to grow up kids and stop pretending Communism comes in any other flavor than Communism.
..the bananas have the same taste and texture but stay "fresh, yellow and appetizing long after peeling and slicing."
Banana taste changes a lot as it ripens, which is why many people prefer to eat them more green. Or more yellow. Or in the case of banana bread, black and slimy-rotten, fermenting with flavors.
Define “appetizing”. By taste, not by color. I’d like to know how the perpetually yellow banana changes flavors.
Leftist bias in media, is blatantly demonstrated when you find all of left-leaning media across a dozen channels suddenly using and abusing the word/phrase du jour in the endless Us. vs Them political game.
And I do mean that literally. There are countless examples of them doing this. When the talking heads literally cannot speak individually and freely, it's telling as to who the real puppets are. It's also quite telling as to who holds the capacity of individual thought.
Groupthink, is what brought the left to its knees.
If the kids really want to know how bad news manipulation is, watch Good Morning, Vietnam and find the media story in there that isn't so fucking funny.
You said yourself, right here, that Fox News manipulates their audience. What is your point? Maybe "90% of media rightfully lost their grip on absolute power" because they stopped manipulating their audience while Fox News gives them a fantasy to blame for the poor state of things in this country?
You obviously only think these things through enough to support your political stance. Hell, your own mind is manipulating you.
What in the hell are you rambling on about when I refer to a movie about Government censorship and manipulation based in the 1960s? The hell does "Fox News" arguments have to do with that? Fox News as a company didn't even exist until the 1990s.
And leftist media lost their grip on delusional manipulation and control within the last 5 years. As their ratings and show cancellations proudly confirm.
Watch the movie. Educate yourself before commenting. The point being made, is encapsulated within the weapon US Government abuses every day. ALL media, is nothing more than a Weapon of Mass Distraction.
(WalMart) "$37 million dollar check from Cambridge Analytica? Well..yeah. Uh, sure. We can uh..kinda explain it. I mean..just because we sold your data to someone else to use and abuse..well that still means WE DIDN'T USE IT, right? Right? Ha! See, told you we were telling the truth!"
Can't believe people are still falling for some 'privacy' story when this is how this shit works every fucking time..
The most main stream media right now is Fox News, heavily right wing, and the current 'right wing news' is stuff that was in parody of dystopian news in films of the recent past.
If right-wing news is parody, then leftists should have a fistful of receipts to prove them wrong. All day, every day.
Do they? Actual factual receipts? Not merely "I feel" arguments?
If the "main" stream media is now Fox News, then the other 90% of media rightfully lost their grip on absolute power, along with their viewership and ratings. Go figure as to how that happened. Then watch liberals triple-down on it and lose more.
Talent does what it can. Genius does what it must. You do what you get paid to do.
