    People want it to be Data from Star Trek, when it really should be the ship's computer. I want to tell it to run a simulation accurately, create some solved tool, etc. I don't thin…

    A corporation can file a frivolous lawsuit that can bankrupt me before it could even get thrown out as frivolous.

    A few years ago I bought a couch at Ikea, I wanted to get it delivered. They held out a QR code to a task rabbit link, after fighting with the code and bad reception and not wantin…

    I just stopped writing my social down on doctor intake forms years ago after numerous "whoopsie we were hacked" letters, that almost seemed like a scam themselves(always nearly ide…

    Maybe we can finally reach communism by first getting together and all agreeing "the economy" isn't a science and if we all just believe really hard, numbers can go up forever, the…

    This is essentially the problem with a lot of US fabs. Many exist only as a technicality for the defense industry to make things domestically. This means they get the "$1,000 hamme…

    China is also ~4x the population of the US and accounts for 30% of the worlds manufacturing and energy production. The scale is so crazy that these numbers rarely make sense on the…

    Brutalism is always a target for lazy critiques. Concrete heavy architecture enables far more interesting geometry due to how you can use various molds and modular construction. In…

    that's why you don't give cops unaccountable tools which they can use to kill/harm/harass people even more effectively. Cops need to be on a leash because the profession attracts t…

    Police dogs are another insane thing we allow. You can be mauled by a police dog and if you hit the dog, you get an assault on a police officer charge. It's bad enough a cop can pe…

    The exceptions to the rule are very rare. I can think of one case where a person shot back during a no-knock raid on the wrong address and had charges dropped because police didn't…

    Police regularly ignore evidence that disproves their claims. They will not prove your innocence for you. It will still be up to you to pay the lawyer 1000s of dollars to do the di…

    I was trying to hide my power level but yeah, the point is to maintain a permanent "underclass" that can't pick and choose what work they take. If everyone was truly free, we'd hav…

    This is the big problem with mass surveillance as a whole. With enough time, they'll find some pretext to bring you in, even if the original crime they want you for is weak. This w…

    People tend to view these things as "pop the drug, and you're cured" but if you really want to make the most of the neuroplasticity, you need to make a conscious plan ahead of time…

    Yeah, Disenfranchise the hippies and the blacks by targeting those communities with heavy policing. Sorta like today where there's similar drug use levels between white and black p…

    I'm wondering what they could have done differently here. The report said it was a 0% moonlight night, extremely dark. No exact position from GPS, and visuals on the landing strip.…

    You probably don't have that same opinion when Government funds(tax dollars) go to paying out lawsuits over police brutality.

    I've actually considered premium linoleum for the give underfoot. LVP is such a terrible flooring. Sure it's cheap to buy and install, but man you feel that cheapness.

    With how few trans people are, the people among them who have detransitioned is even smaller. I'm not sure why these people should be the only ones that are taken seriously. They'r…
