If only the US had integrated the Universal Declaration of Human Rights into law. It’s only 78 years old. Guess they haven’t had time yet.

Article 25

Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services,

I wouldn’t count “behind a VPN” as “open to the internet”.

It’s still listening and recording. The recent Gamers Nexus video shows that the just store everything locally until they find a way to send it. They’re always scanning the radio for other access points too.

Damn seagulls.

Code is probably one of the easiest things to verify

LOL!!!

Local opposition to data centre builds seems to be most effective at the moment. People oppose it from across the political spectrum, and it’s becoming a hot topic. Add your voice to the crowd.

AI use for Open Source projects is arguably the one use case that benefits everyone,

It doesn’t benefit everyone if it pushes the quality down because the impetus to go fast wins over the dedication to reviewing the code properly. Nor does it benefit everyone if the world becomes uninhabitable because of the energy used by data centers. Nor does it benefit everyone if economies collapse due to the hype being wrong and the speculative bubble bursts. Nor does it benefit everyone if the hype is right and it renders most jobs redundant.

These are the very rational things “haters” are concerned about. AI is for the rich to get richer. It does nothing for the rest of us.

I put on my robe and wizard hat.

Like many leaders before him, he’s going into a critical election weak. He thinks he needs a win to look strong. Iran is a big pile of shit for him, so he’s looking to other “easier” targets.

He doesn’t understand Canadians at all.

So we’re taking that code out of systemd, right?

What about King Kong? That was pretty big at the time. Sure, it’s more of a supporting role, but still significant.

IF you have an alternative provider of that good you’re tariffing, you make that provider more attractive to buyers in your nation. That provider could be a local one, or an international one in a country you don’t tariff. Introducing tariffs basically cut off your market to the supplier you’re tariffing.

Trump’s idiotic tariffs were global. All products, all nations. No local supplier for most things as the US makes bugger all now. No alternative suppliers because he tariffed everyone.

You’ve seen where they want to build this, right? Heat is not an issue.

So don’t build it. It needs too much power.

I hear jet fuel melts steal beams.

Also the younger generation needs to step up and run for office. The disillusionment with politics runs deep, but just staying out of it isn’t an option.

In that movie where that guy kisses his sister. 👉👈

That’s the sequel.

Yes. You’re being a dick.

Elephants aren’t religious (as far as I know) yet even they will gather to say goodbye to a family member. When the day comes, you’ll want to too.

If that’s true in the US, then god help you. I know they still exist in the UK.
