  1. And Obama woulda gotten away with it too, if it hadn't been for Trump diddling those kids!
  2. See, the ICE agents went INTO the building (which they did at a LAUSD school), but they didn't actually ARREST anyone there (because the school officials kicked them out)! So, Dagger is winning here! ICE....DEFENDED!
  3. Sure. See, I made an analogy. You are stanning for ICE because they haven't gone all the way in to schools, as if that is some great positive fact (they have attempted to do so more than once, that we know of). It wouldn't exactly be a great fact for us if the Nazis did all their shit, but simply hadn't entered a synagogue....yet.
  4. I mean...Pete almost certainly keeps his porn downloads in a folder visible on his computer's home screen called "SECRET PORN STASH DO NOT OPEN" or some shit. The dumbest. Fucking. Timeline.
  5. Dagger: "The nazis haven't actually gone INTO a synagogue to snatch up jews and then ship them off to concentration camps. Jesus Christ….grip those semantics a little harder to justify your stupidity." This fucking timeline, man.
  6. Welp, you've got it pegged. I mean, that's the play they're already running with respect to....Ozzy....who was clearly the picture of health, a marathon runner and such, before he got "the jab." It's their play. They run it every time an EKG goes flatline, it will be no different here.
  7. Dude. That pretty much flies in the face of.....everything about America these days. Commie.
  8. Oh, so y'all HAVE figured out the play. Yeah, this was 100% obvious the second that "getting her story" was mentioned. She will be asked to say "Trump was just another New Yorker who came to big social events. He had no idea that anything bad was happening, and he never had sex with any of Epstein's girls." She will say it. She will be pardoned. And...this is the important part...all of the "law and order" and "WE MUST PUNISH PEDOS!" MAGAts will suddenly be just fine with that outcome. Because...and this is also important....they are the most loathsome people presently walking this earth.
  9. Yeah...I mean....Ozzy's ill health clearly had nothing to do with his Parkinson's (diagnosed over 20 years ago) or a brutal fall and hellacious surgery in 2019. Or, you know...decades of brutally hard living that treated his body like a garbage dump. Naah. He was a fucking healthy marathon runner right up till he got "the jab." These people are so fucking stupid. Beyond stupid. Infinitely stupid. A singularity of breathtaking idiocy.
  10. It may glitch, and give you this solution instead....

    Austin FC

    Final All-Star roster for tonight released. Messi ain't on it. Fucking diva.
  12. @Sbbruin, check your messages. Shoot me your text info, and I'll buy you a pregame wine cooler or spritzer or whatnot.
  13. Oh, no, you see....there were sinister lights over New Jersey right before the election, which were obviously the Biden administration collaborating with aliens and the chinese to spy on us via chemtrails. And that story went "poof" and went away literally within minutes of the election being over because....reasons. But it was TOTALLY a real thing, trust us.
  14. Why you went there instead of "starts a degrading OnlyFans page" baffles and disappoints me.
  15. I mean....I could even argue with you on that point (worthy of a whole separate thread: we have enough resources and the ability to maintain the population on earth, and even have it grow more. We just don't manage or allocate the resources appropriately). But underneath all of that is some complex morality, moral weighing and judgments, etc., which AI can't/won't do. It can get some basic rules, like "don't come up with a solution that calls for directly killing people," but complex moral thought is beyond it. AI is a tool. If that tool is used to "replace human thought and decision-making in ways that may totally disregard moral guardrails," then we are mis-using it. In the end, our cultural worship of the profit-motive at the expense of everything else (oh the irony....that's a moral decision we've made, and it's a shitty one) is setting us up for unspeakable disaster.
  16. That conclusion may not be incorrect. But then a solution of "so, kill 500 million of them" would be.
  17. Oh...yeah...if you're looking for someone to posit humanity's perfect record on that front, I sure ain't your guy. No argument here. Just suggesting that there's at least a CHANCE for a moral check with humans driving the bus (some days....those chances are much lower than we would like, but they still qualify as a "chance"). As compared to a machine, which doesn't care. "It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear."
  18. That's true enough. But,if you create goals with no moral guardrails, MANY (most?) people will at least still operate using their internal moral guardrails. Even low-grade morons will do so. AI has no such built-in, pre-existing guardrails. Again, Asimov illustrated the risk 80 years ago with his Three Laws of Robotics having to be imbedded in the hardware of AI. We are not doing so now (and of course, even the Three Laws themselves made for some interesting writing about the conundrums and logic puzzles they could lead to). The fact that we're plunging headfirst into a world of "hey, intelligence with no humanity or morality, create and implement a path forward to solve problem X" is perilous as shit.
  19. Really? The tie is what grabbed you? Not the head of Otto the Auto-Pilot?
  20. The foundational problem is 1) giving a goal-defined task to 2) an entity that literally has no humanity or morality. Without programming in all of the guardrails that are embedded in most human thinking (sociopaths being a notable outlier), there are no limits or boundaries. For example, imagine giving AI the problem of "at present, the world can only grow enough food to feed 7 billion people. There are 7.5 billion people right now, and starvation is rising. What can we do to make our food supply go farther?" You might well get an answer of "euthanize 500 million people." That's a perfectly logical way of dealing with a limited food supply. Sure, it's evil and murderous, but you just asked AI to solve the problem stated....if you fail to give it detailed parameters (like "solve this without killing anyone," simple things like that), or an overarching set of rules, then you WILL end up with results like that. Sometimes unintended, because you just didn't think of the alternatives when you gave it the task. I'm reminded of when I told my 5 yr old son, about to start T-ball, a tip to get him ahead of the game: you can tag the runner to get him out. So, the first game, the first batter hits the ball, and my son charges him, slaps him with his glove, looks at me and yells "DAD! I TAGGED THE RUNNER!" All the other dads look at me. I sheepishly confess "yeah...I forgot to tell him that you have to have the ball when you tag him." Failure to provide underlying/background rules and restrictions leads to bad outcomes. This is Asimov Three Laws of Robotics shit, and we're going to fail at it, miserably.
  21. Yeah. Still not clicking. Asymmetrical power dynamics aren’t inherently evil. Using asymmetrical power isn’t inherently evil. Using it against civilians…for the express purpose of ethnic cleansing…is evil. Without relitigating all of history, after Hamas attacked on Oct 7, Israel had a right to use its power - asymmetrical as it was - to go after the perpetrators and cripple the threat. Didn’t think that was a super controversial take, but there we are. What Israel is doing now - and has been doing for a long-ass time in this “war” - is not just beyond what could have been justified, it’s just open genocidal war-criming. And again, it’s been doing so for the majority of this war.
  22. Well, if by “come around,” you mean “think Israel was inevitably going to wage a full-on genocidal war,” I’m not there. Israel has had numerous forks in the road where it could have stayed at least close to “in bounds” on legitimate combat. But Bibi preserving his ass and the hard right prevailed, and here we are. It didn’t have to be this way…yet this is the way it is. Which is fucking evil.
  23. I do? Seriously…I gotta tell ya, I don’t recall ever cheering for the IDF to slaughter Palestinian civilians.
