Get a telescope and explore space whenever the air sirens aren't going off at night.

They actually mean just unborn American children, everyone else is a savage to them.

Meanwhile conbrainwashedtives are dellusioning themselves that those systems are part of the "deep state" and not a part of the government that's classified for a reason, part of it being the check and balances they only defend when the candidate they don't like is in power. Welp, this was coming, and this is going to critically expose the systems to the moron that sent firing notices from an unsecured mail server without even going into how they are going to abuse it themselves.

Spoken as if it was true Russian troll factory appraised propaganda. This is the sort of message of apathy they want permeating throughout the opposition. The problem isn't people, the problem starts with you. What are you going to do about it, and why should other people do something you don't want to work towards? Those people you are calling to revolt, what if they think the same thing you do.

The US thinks it's special, so it doesn't seem to think that this scenario is already working out in countries like Turkey, in countries like Hungary, in countries like Belarus ... You are not going to get a revolt, if you were that special it would already materialize at the personal level. You will decay into a dictatorship. The people overthrowing your democracy are psychopaths, they are psychopaths that have trained to not give a concern about society, they have lived in positions of affluence where they haven't had to care or have been burned by it, hell, these psychopaths have even played all the world building and backstabbing sandbox computer games with all their heart that for you were just an amusement and barely a footnote, and they will continue to gaslight your doubts and fears.

They have all the experience, and you, well, if anyone does rebel, it will be done with inexperience and a healthy dose of "well, society deserves this" apathy. At that point, it is just a matter of the will to accept losing for something you believe for versus the practicality of just living on no matter what because at least you live. A lot of people have clearly chosen their side, and it tends to be with "well it was chosen for me" when that's just projection of what they have already decided to choose. People praise Luigi, people have seen how society unites with Luigi, but they will never be a Luigi.

Basically, the governmental version of shotgun argumentation.

"Whistleblows". What a moronic take, in this regard taking the word of Edward Snowden is like taking the word of a random stranger in the street. At least we know on what Edward Snowden is likely spending his days on in Russia: Gaming. Wouldn't blame him, it's not like he can freely travel.

Fortunately, they will be crippling themselves in the console market doing shit like this, so there should still be plenty of choice left. I wouldn't be surprised if Bethesda eventually released a non-ray tracing version of the game after whatever deal they signed with NVIDIA expires and they consider porting the game to platforms without RT support.

I wish AMD or Intel released a GPU with upgradable VRAM, that would mean they would become even more viable for fuckbot training. People go the 3090 GPU route in the second hand market for them because all they care about is VRAM size, they don't care if its two generations old.

After NVIDIA's marketplace partner botched my order after I paid it and them not taking any responsibility whatsoever, I'm pretty sure I'm well on my way to becoming an AMD fan boy now. Maybe an Intel fan boy, depending on how they continue improving their GPUs. But a lot of GPU development in the future is going to go hand in hand with geopolitics, so it will be interesting to see how that goes.

No, but calling a lot of people stupid does border around rule 2.

So is gambling.

this shit will fade in to the into the domain of low skill grifters.

Seems about right. It just happens you can really get ahead by being a low skilled grifter in today's world.

It really isn't. This seems like rewriting history for views, although it's still an interesting read. This article is basically:

At the root of this reactionary thinking was a writer and public intellectual named George Gilder

followed by an explanation of how his influence started and grew there, followed by a fair degree of mental gymnastics to how well-it-didnt-seem-to-be-there-but-it-really-was.

Societies change, I'm sure his and a number of factors less colluded that the article suggests also did contribute to it, but it wasn't the same. IMO the biggest transition has been from Silicon Valley being fostered to create an investment hotspot to Silicon Valley being targeted by increasingly classist special interests that were losing their competitive traction because of how much influence its innovations were having on the rest of the world.

I can't believe the US' first dictator will be this diapered decrepit senile old scammer.

You probably crossed an admin and didn't even realize it. Reddit is really utterly shit behind the curtains, they just happen to put on a good face that has generally fooled politicians and influencers alike. Most people care about what's behind the curtains like they do with politics, not much at all, so they keep getting away with it specially due to the heavy control they have on the narrative. You know societies will begin to give a shit about social networks and what that is doing to our real societies when you actually have a recourse against their Black Mirror Nosedives.

Now our governments will give a shit for AI IP trampling. Or at least it would, if the "leader of the free world" wasn't so busy threatening it and re-prioritizing concerns. Eat the shit pie whole, Elon.

Talk about a shitload slice of the irony pie, the industry that has not given two shits about intellectual property is getting undone by the masters of intellectual property theft and they don't even have a recourse because of the bed they've made. Now, it's time to lie in it.

Loss in trust in the US economy under Trump along with the appearance of a new "Hail Mary" by investors who can look outside of the US' national borders unlike Trump and his followers.

Virtue signalling idol virtue signals, more at eleven.

It's like those fairy tales Zionists try to convince you about that every belief system should seek their own nation. It's easy to come up with free land when you have zero value for the people living on it.
