Putin has been working to dismantle NATO for a long time though. Whether he is right or wrong, he clearly feels that the US pulling out of NATO is in his interest.

They disagree I should be allowed to live though

You mean, John Menard?

I think that is because most people are only aware of its use as what are, effectively, chat bots. Which, while the most widely used application, is one of its least useful. Medical image analysis is one of the big places it is making strides in. I am told, by a friend in aerospace, that it is showing massive potential for a variety of engineering uses. His firm has been working on using it to design, or modify, things like hulls, air frames, etc. Industrial uses, such as these, are showing a lot of promise, it seems.

Idk man, my doctors seem pretty fucking impressed with AI’s capabilities to make diagnoses by analyzing images like MRI’s.

According to the English version of the Swedish government’s website, Sweden does have local laws though? It says there are 23 regions, with 290 municipalities, that are allowed, and have laws, that pertain only to that district/municipality. That the central Swedish government regulates their governance to make sure it adheres to constitution’s, and central government law also regulates these areas.

Reading more, there are police local to these regions and local municipalities too. With central government investigative authorities. So, what’s the deal with what you are saying, vs what the Swedish government claims

It has been shifting to every waking hour for a while now. Your behavior is being monitored to a greater, and greater, extent everyday, and the big companies, that truly own the economy, are becoming more, and more, likely to take punitive actions against you for anything you do, at any time, because “as an employee you are a representative of our company”.

Yes, the authorities will have to pay for data like everyone else.

I mean, i thought that was pretty obvious, about the US that is

the Suffocation era of Blizzard would be nice too

It went from niche hobby, to large secondary media market, to the largest entertainment industry in history. Game companies are, as you brought up, no longer being run by people interested in video games. While a lot of the talent they hire, are still people who are passionate about video games, a lot of them are, just people who learned a skill, in order to have a productive career. The latter is becoming a larger, and larger, percentage of the people actually making video games. Video games are just another industry now. Just like any other, they exist to make money, and the people who work for them are people who just want a pay check.

The indie development scene is the only hope really, for people who don’t want the top 40 pop charts version of games.

Oh, flying ferry is a nick name for hydrofoil, not an actual aircraft.

YT likely recognized the IP as belonging to a commercial entity and threw up the block, due to bot concerns, over that .

Hasn’t been happening to me. Then again, the music I listen to probably isn’t a big target for AI, yet.

The US is an imperialist hypocrite of a country. Like that is just a damn fact. As you point out though, the issues leftists, not in these spaces, have with places like hexbear, and ml, is the fact that they back authoritarian regimes like China. China who is in the process of the US playbook of economic imperialism with their BRI. They are committing a genocide, they are exploiting much poorer countries, to hold them in economic dependency, and they are discussing annexing land they do not own any longer, and haven’t for a long time now. No I am not talking about Taiwan.

They are making so many similar moves to the US post WWII, and have an economy that is dependent on allowing capitalism, to the point that they have a billionaire class second only to the US. While the US is growing its police/surveillance state, China is leagues ahead on that one. The big thing China doesn’t have, is something similar to the massive global infrastructure the US developed to be able to deploy, and supply, its military in a time frame measured in hours. China is trying to develop something along these lines, but it has the US/NATO super structure all ready in place, it will have to, at least partially, displace. This will not be easy.

This person is saying Putin wants the territory back, not the government system. They even say the statement was hyperbolic.

It’s because it isn’t worth it, for me, to discuss it with you. Have a nice day.

This was the 80s, my guy

don’t forget capitalism, capitalism is the real religion, and the dollar is it’s icon.

It is more like 0 and then 0+1.
