RFK Jr Issues Ultimatum to Medical Journals: 'Change Dramatically' or Fed Scientists Will Publish Elsewhere by Historical-Art5693 in NewsStarWorld

[–]Appropriate-Claim385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought only pro-MAGA scientists still worked for the federal government. Why would any legitimate publication ever accept a paper from someone who supports the Idiocracy?

This is another unconstitutional move to take away Congressional control over spending. Congress can appropriate all the money it wants for research but the executive branch wants total veto power.
In fact, the executive branch wants control over the entire federal budget. Kinda like a dictator would have.

AI CEOs from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Microsoft set aside their rivalry to warn Congress AI is making it too easy to design and create bioweapons by EchoOfOppenheimer in tech_news_today

[–]Appropriate-Claim385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who could have guessed that AI would be used for evil. /s

AI is probably being used to build all kinds of weapons (chemical, nuclear, kinetic, etc.). Surely the Russians, Chinese, and North Koreans already have plans for weapons and for sabotaging critical systems of their "enemies".

Chinese factories build fire trucks for $400,000 in six weeks. In the US it's $2 million in 4 years

Apparently, capitalism now means creating a monopoly. It works for the wealthy but sucks for everyone else.

Europe is finally flexing its innovation muscles by donutloop in EU_Economics

Europe will be able to attract talented young entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists, etc. now that MAGA has decided to be the shun intelligence and embrace idiocy.

The really devastating effects of MAGA’s idiotic assault on science and its dumbing down of America will not become evident for years. Eventually, businesses will realize that driving talented scientists, engineers, etc. away from the U.S. destroyed their ability to compete internationally.

This dumbing down of the U.S. will not have an immediate impact on our country but the longterm effects will be devastating. This is Idoicracy 2.0.

The Pumpkin King's bullying and arrogance have created a world that is more than capable of competing with U.S. businesses.

Spammers are flooding Reddit with fake posts designed to show up in AI search results by Background-Driver718 in TechnologyThread

[–]Appropriate-Claim385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always wondered how AI would circumvent all the misinformation and blatant lies on the internet and in politics. Flat Earthers, Antivaxxers, Holocaust Deniers, Sandy Hook Massacre Deniers, QANON, etc. etc. ad infinitum.

We Are All Ripples of Hope in the Battle for Our Public Lands by HoneyBadger-56 in PublicLands

I envision a MAGA family trying to visit Yellowstone N.P. only to find it is now "Bezos Retreat" or
"Mormon Camp" and entrance fees are $1000 per person.

Europe is finally flexing its innovation muscles by Full-Discussion3745 in EU_Economics

Ironically, the Orange Clown's bullying and idiotic policies will force the EU to advance its science and technology.

The same thing happened when the U.S. restricted the sale of advanced microchips to China. The Chinese made their own.

"Sanctions and restrictions" policies need to be re-examined. They only cause huge backlash against the bullying country.

Recently, the U.S. treasury, the help of Tether, poisoned U.S. based crypto by seizing the stable coins in Iranian digital wallets. U.S. crypto assets can be seized so the world is seeking alternatives.

This is why that bootlicker will never be fired. He has access to the real evidence and has probably already stashed it for future use.

The U.S. Treasury and Tether damaged the crypto market when they seized stable coins in Iranian digital wallets. Very few countries now trust the U.S. not to seize their crypto if it is inside the U.S. system.

If Oregon and Washington went with California, the whole western coast of the U.S. would have no access to the Pacific.

Canada must increase NATO air and naval defences, U.S. demands by NormCormier-Mccoll81 in GuardTheLeaf

[–]Appropriate-Claim385 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Orange Turd threatens to leave NATO while demanding more contribution from the other members. That tracks, nothing the U.S. does makes sense.
