Not that I want this to happen, but cybersecurity is probably a far better investment than AI will ever be.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

It was more of a comment about how many millions they have wasted on AI with very little to show for it. At least they have a chance of better protecting themselves by acquiring this. They probably won’t, but it’s still more likely to help them out than what they gave to Reddit.

Forgot to add- Around half of women who have had abortions have had at least one child previously.

Yes, it’s called “keep it in your pants if you want your partner to get pregnant and she doesn’t want to because abortion is illegal in a lot of states now.”

I’m guessing the odds are so slim that vasectomy plus condom is so close to impossible statistically speaking that you would be safe. I’m not trying to criticize your personal choice, which is perfectly valid.

He is extremely stupid regardless of what the agenda of the people around him is.

In fact, he’s so extremely stupid that he just agrees with whoever flatters him the most. You can see it in real time sometimes.

Slavery, Texas Observer. Call it slavery. It may be legal, but it’s still slavery.

Imagine how much more impact the headline would have been if it instead read: Texas’ Plantation Prisons: Inside a 200-Year History of Slavery Shrouded in Secrecy

Because even “forced labor” doesn’t make it sound as bad as it actually is. Only one word does.

And that’s because…

I think there are many reasons. For one thing, they have the Christian vote locked up, and the sort of Christianity they preach is one where you can do any manner of atrocious things, ask forgiveness, be forgiven, then repeat the cycle. So many clergy that are even in prison for being sex offenders still get defended by their former parishioners.

Another is definitely a power imbalance thing, especially when there is a lot of evidence tying psychopathy to business success. Lacking any real moral code is fine when you’re a rich CEO. As Trump said, “when you’re wealthy, they let you do it.”

A third is that there are a lot of Republican voters who are so rabidly anti-left that they will literally elect a sex offender (Jim Jordan) over a Democrat.

I’m sure people can suggest others.

Looking forward to seeing what they’ll say about the cache full of guns they found in the attempted assassin’s house.

Don’t give them ideas. They’ll start calling for gun control, but only for people on the left.

You know the fun thing about using nuance? It doesn’t matter one red penny if Republicans aren’t doing it too.

This is an election. Being snobby about “ignorant people” helps lose them.

I don’t think there’s any question of that.

The question is: does he have a lady wig fetish?

Of course, you know that investing in private property is a pillar of communism.

Per capita is a terrible measure when it comes to greenhouse gases. That Wikipedia list puts Palau at number one per capita.

It doesn’t matter how much each individual person is putting out, it matters how much is being put out in total.

And in that case, these are the top five. None of them, including China, are coming close to doing anywhere near enough:

He’d probably do okay. It’s still one of, if not the most unequal countries on the planet and it’s far more corrupt than the U.S.

His trans daughter hates him so much that she not only officially changed her surname from Musk in court, she had it put into the court record that she disowns him. That’s not even a law thing, she just wanted it officially noted.

Imagine what sort of absolutely horrific father he must be to disown one of the world’s richest men? She could have kept her mouth shut, waited for him to die, and hoped she got some money out of it, but he’s that terrible.

You mean he doesn’t sleep on people’s couches anymore like he says? He actually lives the life of a billionaire with too much privilege?

That’s like me. Every pride, I see rainbows and suddenly I am sucking so many cocks. 11 months of the year, heterosexual sex with my wife. 1 month of the year, sucking cocks.

I’ve decided that Rudy needs his own special image. It’s a Riker derivative, but not a Riker.

How many had supportive families? Families that wouldn’t do things like overhear phone conversations or check browser histories?

I don’t think you have a good understanding of how oppressed queer people are in this world.

The other day that Tankie that told me that earning capital was a feature of communism and if I just read Marx, I’d know he was in favor of private property, as they were defending China as a “communist” country. My god that was funny.

When the Tankies come in here to defend this, you’ll find out.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Nope. I read the article. I just know the back story and I know that not only did Guo make his fortune developing property in China (especially when he got some very lucrative contracts for the Beijing Olympics) and, despite his criticisms of the CCP, he still owns a huge amount of property in the so-called communist country which has never seized and nationalized his assets, distributing the wealth amongst the workers.

He left China in “self-exile.” He was never under threat. He just didn’t like living there.
