Funny, the same telecoms that whine about how hard this traffic is to stop... are also selling a "premium" service to customers- who then manually tag unwanted calls so that the te…

One word: incentives. You're absolutely right- and telecom networks get us on both sides. They collect fees from the scammers, then fees from customers to block the scammers. Can't…

I find this fascinating because - let's say that I want to simulate the scenario for myself that a language model finds itself in. I'll put aside my deep dislike of anthropomorphiz…

Here's three links to get you started. https://virginiamercury.com/2026/06/29/virginias-romance-wit... https://www.csmonitor.com/Environment/2025/0320/data-center-... https://www.i…

what about an AI generated image using the real face of a minor? That can (I would argue will ) cause real damage to the real child.

Apple can’t solve for loose physical cables, poor usb hubs, or firmware issues as discussed in tfa.

What would you suggest? There are real divisions in this country and a lack of shared ground truth. This thread among many is an example. I vouched for your earlier comment stating…

So in that case, what were they there to do, exactly? Don't forget, an actual noose was erected on the capitol grounds: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/16/us/politics/jan-6-gallows…

The Proud Boys have a defined organization structure and leader, with a set of definitions of what a "Proud Boy" is expected to do upon joining (see McInnes' post introducing the g…

There will be no investigation at least for the foreseeable future. ICE and the federal government are actively stonewalling any attempt at one! I'd love to see an investigation. (…

“That guy” had a name. His name was Alex Pretti. He was disarmed before he was shot in the head. He was not even holding his weapon at any point. Are you implying that simply carry…

Btw - > If you want to concede that it's fascist to want violent criminals prosecuted, I believe it is fascist to bring trumped up charges for ridiculousness. Say for example the c…

Ok sure not every of the 1500 people pardoned by Trump could be considered “violent”. Have you watched the videos? There’s definitely more than one. And you’re shifting the goalpos…

Ugh let’s not get all conspiracy theory up in here. Show me real evidence of that and I’ll believe you. Until then - to say at the same time - the Feds are so incompetent and also …

So again the hn hypocrisy doesn’t matter. The only thing on the line for me is whether my imaginary internet points balance increases or decreases. The feds on the other hand have …

Shifting the goal posts. I’m talking about the selective prosecution and you’ve tried to equate that with hn sentiment. Does it really matter what the double standard is for a bunc…

No the jan6 rioters just used poles and batons and such to beat the shit out of police- some who died afterward. https://youtu.be/DXnHIJkZZAs?si=zDKJcly9KMBY_GgJ I mean - seriously…

So you’re telling me the jan6 defendants had no intention to cause harm to the lawmakers? Actual people died on jan6- nobody died at prarieland afaik. Have you seen the footage fro…

I do want violent criminals prosecuted. But the problem is that there is a very clear signal given that prosecution is highly selective. I made my point earlier - if this administr…

Just to be clear, the January 6 defendants: - were a group of at least 1000 people - who, among other things, erected a noose on the capitol grounds, brought zip ties and weapons -…

Can anyone seriously define “antifa”? What would the pardon read? “Anyone who is anti-fascism is hereby pardoned…”? Edit: downvoting me doesn’t answer the question. If you have a d…
