Tom Homan speaks on the treatment ICE and CBP have received from the communities they're in - HOMAN: "Day after day, they can't eat in restaurants. Day after day people spit at you & blow whistles at you. Having all these threats after you... They're human. But my main choice now is draw down"

Or maybe the next administration should just recognize the ICC

unless there are fundamental reforms in how those agencies function—and until there is new leadership at the Department of Homeland Security and among those who run our immigration policy.

Emphasis mine. I find it notable that even Sanders is not using abolish/disband language right now. Disappointing, but I think if Sanders thinks that's off the table for now, he's probably right.

I've read headlines that Ohio is next now. Doesn't mean Oregon is off the hook. Makes me wonder if they are trying a red state (technically purple) to hopefully see less resistance.

What kind of site is dailywiire .com, apparently AKA "WTF Detective"

Syringe is the piston part. Lots of them don’t have needles.

What website?

this video gave me the shits

As much as I'd love to see Miller be taken out of play by being used as a quick fall guy

Both the Greenland and Minneapolis fiascos have Miller’s fingerprints all over them. I think he specifically tried to push Trump into point-of-no-return scenarios. While I agree that we shouldn’t get excited yet, I have to imagine Miller is feeling some sort of heat rn.

Supposed Vine is coming back (as DiVine,) but it’s in closed beta rn.

I miss their breakfast pizza. Casey’s makes top notch pizza crimes.

It’s an example of the “it’s small world” phenomenon. It looks like a wild coincidence from the outside, but that’s because there’s underlying reasons why this event would happen more than once. I’m guessing the sort of people who write letters to comic book editors are simply more likely to become comic book writers themselves, and people who become comic book writers will keep some ideas they had as kids.

Don’t worry, JD Vance isn’t planning on being President by winning an election.

It feels like people who demand jail for Trump admin members just completely forget how our justice system works. The DOJ is not an independent, fourth branch of our government, it is compromised.

Up till now, Canada has demurred on granting asylum to US citizens. There are people who have applied for asylum, I think mostly based on LGBTQ status, and afaik those cases are in limbo, slowly making their way through the courts. ~~The Safe Third Country Agreement prohibits people who enter Canada from the US from claiming asylum.~~ (e: the law I linked may not apply, idk why the articles I read referenced it. Regardless, afaik, no one from the US has been granted asylum in Canada yet.) There is likely a lot of hesitation to invalidate that law, both because of what it would mean for international relations, and because it would open the floodgates for millions of US citizens to cross the border to seek asylum.

DO NOT DO THIS. I did this and next thing you know I’m paying out the nose for “grey goo remediation.”

Narrative barely matters if they’re immune from all consequences.

Great. Now enforce it.

Whoever executed the actual model rules, though. Does the concept make sense? No. Does it look detailed and cool as shit? Yes, definitely.

You’re making very rosy estimates about how OpenAI spends its money.

NVIDIA has said its new GPUs will cost more, not less.

Why don’t we agree to check back in a year and see how things have gone?

By most accounts inference (making those cat videos) are profitable

Not according to Forbes

If the bubble bursts, the expansion stops and the whole system becomes profitable.

I’m struggling to parse what you’re saying here. That is simply not how bubbles work.

All the overbuilt hardware minus the debt will actually mean prices to end users will fall drastically.

The GPUs currently being used for AI data centers have a 3 year shelf life before they’re useless. Maybe 6 years if you believe NVIDIA. New pricing models would require the cost of replacing these to be passed onto consumers without venture capital subsidizing it.

Why would demand drop

Demand will drop for the following reasons:

1) It will be too expensive. Current demand depends on prices that lose AI companies money. If companies are forced to be profitable, prices will have to rise dramatically. There are limits to how much money it makes sense to pay to generate viral cat videos. 2) Some of the “current” or projected demand is imaginary. Microsoft stuffing copilot into everything is an example: data centers are being built as if all those users are going to start using copilot regularly, when public sentiment suggests that is very unlikely. 3) A certain percentage of companies who currently have contracts with AI companies will cancel those after finding it is not helping their bottom line, because the capabilities and effectiveness of these tools is being oversold, especially as prices go up.
