The feds would just argue the supremacy clause, tell the filers to get fucked, then kidnap the filers to Sudan.

I think it's more likely that California begins a succession movement that don dipshit to get impeached.

Yup. Had this dream about two months ago while in Vegas with a buddy for a concert, cept it was a urinal, and I was awoken to trying to piss in the corner of the hotel room.

Don't get me wrong, I certainly think AI/LLMs have their uses, more as an aid to humans. Medical diagnostics, front line customer service, clerical, every industry could benefit from having a computer doing basic to even advanced level support. What we're seeing now though is all these execs think that the tech is at the level where it can replace entire workforces, and that's where the fallacy lies. Imo, humans should always make the final judgement, especially when these decisions involve affecting other people. It has the ability to improve and enrich lives, but the way things are going is that they'll be used to make the line go up at the expense of people.

The wank auditor will see you now.

If there's no humus to be had, then humanity is doomed anyway.

I want to get off Mr Bones Wild Ride

If I had to guess, the entire reason they're shoving AI integration into absolutely everything is to try to make it irreplaceably viable, if only to keep it relevant. The bubble pops when VC funding decides that maybe AI isn't the holy grail they thought it was and the market on it tanks (bringing every associated stock down with it). Personally, I'm wondering if this bubble is what brings the house of cards down with it, because the amount of money that is all in on AI is absolutely insane, and for no good reason.

I'm fairly certain this is why the current administration is so vehement about not letting anyone regulate AI. We know it's bubbling, they know it's bubbling. It's only a matter of time before the market finds irrefutable proof that AI has been oversold and investors bail.

Why would your password be *******? That seems terribly insecure.

I enjoy self hosting it

I'm kinda with this. He was the absolute best on the Colbert Report, but the second he went mainstream, he lost his luster. Hopefully he finds a new show to host where he can get back to his roots.

And 20,000 rupees is ~$230

Problem is that once Delta gets away with it, they'll all start doing it.

Well, she might've, just when she was a baby, repeatedly.

Indeed, $3,340/oz as of the time of this comment.

Historically, a bank note was the equivalent to a fixed amount of gold. However this fell apart due to the volatility of gold once it became traded as a commodity on stock exchanges, as well as when other nations abandoned their own gold standards. Iirc the reason virtually no countries peg their currencies to gold is due to the fact that doing so limits the ability of governments to enact flexible monetary policy (ie QE) in times of economic hardship, or to influence the stability of a given economy (as Powell is doing niw by keeping interest rates up to prevent hyperinflation). It also severely disadvantages nations that do not have gold deposits, and limits the global economy as a result.

Note: I'm an armchair economist, everything here is as far as I understand it and could be wildly wrong, but I try to read/listen to proper economists and not yahoos spouting off in TV.

Right, but as it sits, the USD is extraordinarily inflated compared to the price of gold. I really hope Trump and his goons don't try to say, "as of today, the USD is now worth $x," because that won't fly with the rest of the financial world.

I mean that's all cool, but what, are we just gonna toss the dollar and trade gold bullion?

"You're a bunch of dumb, weak losers for listening to my campaign promises. Morons."

Considering he thinks the people that voted for him are stupid losers, he probably doesn't care.
