Even in the US, a lot of TOS/T&Cs are unenforceable. It’s harder to get a judge to say it, but there’s case law holding a LOT of these as useless - and your point would also almost certainly come up even in a civil suit, let alone a criminal trial.
No no, that’s too slow and slow is expensive. Time is money and we have to move faster and break more things in order to disrupt the market. /s
Nah, that just helps to normalize it and let people think it’s just harmless and fun.
It’s easier for the news and the government to deepfake things like “huge mobs of Mexican narcoterrorists just over the border” or “there’s a nuclear missile silo in Iran” or whatever with this.
Many states also don’t (usually) require old plates to be turned in when designs change. My state’s gone through two design changes since I started driving in 2010 and I still have my original plates. I’ve seen people driving with plates from the 80s.
Not to mention the payload reqs on this. All the radiation shielding and heat management is gonna need a new Sea Dragon-sized rocket.
Well of course, first you invent the ansible.
Anthropic just knows it has political leverage, that’s it. Large parts of US infrastructure and business now rely on Claude models to even function the way they do with the staff they do, and you can leverage that dependence into political action and retaliation pretty easily in the name of “national security”.
Not if they’re hit with a missile or another satellite. Debris could pretty easily be rocketed up into a higher orbit from a military strike.
If an insurance company refused to carry a cop, they’d be sued out of existence by every police union and booster org in the nation.
Especially with the recent East Wing argument, the lesson is “if you do it fast enough and ignore other people getting angry about it, you can do whatever you want.”
No, we definitely are trying to use rich whites as a patch on the leaking dam now that we’ve been trying to deport all the “illegals” as fast as we can (and to get the administration filthy fucking rich). “Rich” in this case being "over $50k/year so we might be able to get them to buy a car and rent an apartment Considering they’re talking about lifting the immigration restrictions on white South Africans specifically.
Yeah, this is basically where I’m at. We don’t want to make Canada an actual state. What we want to do, is make it a colony, in the 17th century idea: we rule everything, and whatever you do, it just gets shipped southwards to prop up what’s left of the imperial core.
And to shove justification off to a black box. Awful hard to put an algorithm on trial.
Actually basically yes. NASA has had decades of practice at minimum viable operation capability, making their spacecraft and rovers all but drag themselves along even when anything else would stop working.
My work phone for my old job, lived at work. When I clocked off, unless management really wanted to go dragging my actual cell number out of my resume, I was unreachable. If it’s that much of an emergency, you can get someone else.
Yeah, I thought the larger body of evidence all but proves that it was a wet market source.
Nah, “conditional approval” is written into the regulation. You might know this wording better as “pay us a large sum and we’ll give you approval.”
Plus all the shock absorption for the lense. And the avionics if you don’t plan to just have this thing drop film into a predetermined area (like the old Keyhole sats or the U-2).
JD Vance had this too. You can’t even get up onto the street where his house is when he’s home now, because he’s so scared of protestors in front of his house that he’s had the Secret Service lock the entire street down just to feel safe.
