At this point, he's merely a useful idiot for the Project 2025 people. Their idea of economic growth is their investments grow. And they take particular care to feed la Presidenta a fair proportion of social stupidity orders to keep the Maggots worrying about who is using the "wrong" bathrooms than who is stealing them blind. They mask these stupid orders in "morality" when actually caring about people is not on their agenda.

And just as important, when did this Supreme Court care about the Constitution.

"It's gun control all over again and the answer is NOT to withhold capability from people, it's to empower good actors to defend against the bad ones and distribute power widely to keep central authorities in check."

From https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F... (as a tag on one of their graphs): U.S. gun homicide rates exceed total homicide rates in high-income OECD countries.

So how's arming everyone and their uncle's dog working out for you, eh?

"conservative speech", you mean "conservative whining". How come the Right turned into a whiny bunch of geezers complaining about how their lives were miserable because someone might be using the bathroom the Right wishes they wouldn't?

FTFY: No, just you and your leftist friends, outraged that someone dared burst their information bubble with Fascist content.

It might come as a shock to you, but any women "injected" by her husband is indistinguishable from a random woman with donated sperm. Magical thinking by people like you is not a prescription for success.

From https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theregister.com%2F20..., we learn that AI use is making young people in the U.S. weaker in their thinking skills. Why think when you can just ask some dumb oracle and paste its answers into whatever. The same fate awaits U.S. companies who go all in on this crap.

Nothing like having phone home beacon in your imported tech.

No Nobel Peace Prize for you, but you are eligible for a FIFO Faux Peace Prize. And it is trending, even two-bit dictators have one.

We may do better in 2026, there's fair chance of an el Nino forming and those usually bring on higher temperatures. The fact that this is a la Nina years and we're still up there is not good.

Their hardware lasts longer than the trash with which the MS users are satisfied. And then you have to use MS Malware, I'd rather eat a broom.

"oligarchs do too" To me, it seems the oligarchs have only succeeded in mutually recursive backscratching to suck in the suckers.

Unless LLM become a dime a dozen. The Chinese have every incentive to do this given the Western companies fixation on producing the most expensive ones.

Regardless, LLMs won't help with many tasks, and they are only as good as their last model. So in any fast changing landscape, I do not see them doing well.

It isn't just el Bunko's ties to Ellison and his sprog who owns Paramount/Skydance (the firm that fired Stephen Colbert on the ground that el Bunko ordered them to). Paramount/Skydance is backed by Jared Kushner and Gulf Arab oil money. The opportunities for el Bunko to accept "tribute" from this "deal" are nearly endless.

As always when el Bunko is involved, look for the trail of bread crumbs back to his pockets.

That $100 would be better spent on probes to planets, not attempting to cram people into a tin can and sending it to Mars....unless.....if they promise to cram Elmo in, then I might support it.
