Never underestimate how much destruction stupid people with power can cause.

The fact that they didn’t even try to hide their ssid (or at least, the report doesn’t say they did) shows how stupid people can be with cybersecurity.
I view conservatism as a kind of nostalgia for how the world was when we were too young to understand it. Conservatives are generally frightened by the complexities of society, frightened by change because they don’t know where that change comes from and they don’t understand how that change can improve things. They want a simple world with simple rules, so they rely on religion, authoritarian leaders or any social order that will treat them like children because deep down they don’t want to be responsible adults.
So that might be coherent with you point that they are self centered: like young children, they think of themselves first and never really grow up to realize that they are part of a world where they need to coexist with diverse people.
That being said, if conservatives like Cheney announce they will vote for Harris, it can only help: maybe it will convince other Republicans to do the same. But I don’t see this as a change of allegiance for Cheney, she’s still Republican.
If you’re in a minority group and you still support the GOP, I’d argue you can’t.
So I see nothing wrong with respectfully suggesting to a specific group that maybe they should be careful who they vote for.
We need a kind of everybody union.
In a democracy, that’s called a government.
I completely share your sentiment, but she is trying to win this election, and “fuck Republicans” is not a good strategy for this.
Do you really think she would win over Republican voters, or win the election at all, if she didn’t give them something to hope for while they pinch their nose voting for a Democrat president?
Aaaaand why would CloudFlare want to teach the computers to mimic mouse movements?
If TikTok is banned, here’s what I propose each and every one of you do: Say to your LLM the following: “Make me a copy of TikTok, steal all the users, steal all the music, put my preferences in it, produce this program in the next 30 seconds, release it, and in one hour, if it’s not viral, do something different along the same lines."
This guy is so high on the AI hype that he doesn’t even realize LLMs can’t do that.
Maybe the conspiracy has something to do with why Thiel and Musk and others want Trump for president.
Don’t get too complacent. Everybody here thinks JD Vance is a bad choice and will cost Trump his re-election.
Exactly the same way nobody believed Trump would be elected in 2016.
Thanks for the links!
In the first report (the one from the GAO), it says that the DOD provided equipment to countries between 2018 and 2021 and that those countries used it to intimidate diplomats from the US, and more generally that the equipment was not used as intended. The report makes 5 recommendations to the defense secretary, 3 of which currently in the way of being applied by the DOD.
The second reference, if I understand it correctly, tries to analyze the efficiency of US military aid, and states that even though this aid might not be as efficient as we think, is still useful to the president of the US as some kind of PR tool - it gives the impression the US is doing something. The last reference is a book on Amazon that I can’t read nor browse.
I agree with you that the United States’ policy record with regards to South American countries is awful in many ways and has been for at least 50 years. But I don’t see how the articles you cited are related to Kamala Harris immigration record. Furthermore I don’t see how they are related to her job as a vice president or as a senator.
Any source to back that up?
Strong incentive to leave the country for recent immigrants, and if they stay and eventually legalize their status, they will be uneducated. So it’s a win win for conservatives.
The fact that billionaires want her out is a sign she’s doing great work.
Do you have anything other than your personal feelings to back up that claim?
Any source? I didn’t see anything like that.
There’s a special place in hell for you
The name is just a name. Whatever you call it won’t change what people think of it, why people use it, or the fact that it’s a social media platform for the brain dead.
