Totally. Capitalism and fascism definitely rhyme.

Probably not. The goal isn’t to sell American routers.

The goal is to sell routers to Americans with government back doors built-in.

Any companies with approval will be providing that back door.

Asked by a reporter why the U.S. didn’t tell Japan or other allies about its decision to strike Iran before it did so, the president said: “We went in very hard and we didn’t tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? OK, why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?”

“You believe in surprise, I think, much more than us,” Trump added, referencing the 1941 attack on the American fleet at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii that precipitated the United States’ entry into World War II.

Every fucking day with this guy…

By offloading tasks to the network, cameras and robots no longer require expensive, powerful hardware, which makes it easier to deploy AI at a massive scale.

I feel like it is more basic than that.

I think his quote transitioning from asking for help to demanding others “step up” just reveals something he was taught early on—“never show weakness”.

Along with “never admit wrong doing” and “deny ‘til you die”, if you just set a simpleton up with a few basic, immoral, rules and hundreds of millions of dollars, you get Trump.

I vaguely recall a similar approach to detecting law enforcement by scanning for BT signals from common law enforcement BT devices. I don’t recall if they were body cameras or communications equipment or something else, though. Sound familiar to anyone?

I have little to no interest in going to a movie theater. Not just now, but very likely ever again.

I just don’t see the appeal—the crowds are so consistently awful, unless you wait until a given movie’s theatrical run is almost done and no one else is there. But by then, sometimes the movie is already in streaming and I can watch at home.

I CAN be convinced to support business models which seem innovative, however.

For instance, theaters have offered different ticket prices for both age (children/seniors) and time of day (matinees). I would ENTHUSIASTICALLY support a theater which innovated on those points.

For instance, keep early movies cheap for kids. However, retain special “child” pricing throughout the day. I would love to see ticket pricing for children increase by lower ages and later times.

Take a 2-year old to an 11a movie? 5-bucks.

Take a 2-year old to a 9p movie? 500-bucks.

Also, usher enforcement of etiquette should become more aggressive. I wouldn’t mind a police detail enforcing that shit…just be clear with the tickets.

You want a police detail enforcing a ”quiet” theater—buy that ticket and pay the higher price.

You want a cheaper ticket and watch with a bunch of people playing on their phones and talking, go cheap and don’t complain.

Some people love the theater—it’s big, it’s loud, it’s fun. If you like it, go for it. In my opinion, anyone with even a modestly decent modern TV and sound system can wait a bit to catch their movie on streaming and always have a better experience.

Perfect!

The anatomical proportions of the patient are hilarious.

Though, I would say the physical therapist appears to be enjoying her work.

“Justice for Mama Cass!”

This reads like it never even went to trial. The article says a jury “failed to indict” and the man was “never charged”.

I’m assuming it was a grand jury and somehow a bare majority or jurors couldn’t find cause to charge the man (who—at minimum—pointed a gun at his daughter’s chest and pulled the trigger) with any crime whatsoever.

Not a single charge or trial?

How?

Or rather:
