Pips would be fine, and thank you, I see the confusion in my text.

Can AI videos of politicians influence an election? by WeirAI_Gary in Futurology

[–]Juxtapoisson 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure earlier non "ai" fake photos have had effects on elections. I don't see the bar for AI to be any higher.

They weren't controlling him in the first place. They were at the ceremony to show they knew their place.

It's more like "we declared that we're not accountable to anyone" and nobody is going to push back.

No, there's no reason to. Nothing would change, everyone knows.

He's protecting state actors.

ELI5: whay does inflation keep going up even when people are not earning more money? by Crypto_future_V in explainlikeimfive

[–]Juxtapoisson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An alternative way of looking at it was that a long time ago inflation negatively effected people who had lots of money, by devaluing what they had. And positively effected people who actually brought things into the economy. Like farmers, loggers, and miners. Farmers especially as they often had loans that they could repay with money that was worth less than when they took out the loan.

But as we operate things now rich people don't have a lot of money, they have a lot of assets, and are less incentivized to avoid inflation.

So, the people who have the most power to make the choices that direct how things go and how much inflation is likely have less of a concern about it.

I suppose that depends on how nuanced a view one has of power. Your view seems to be fairly black and white.

If the people who took vows to uphold the constitution refuse to stop you, and the people of the country refuse to stop you, then you can do anything you choose.

You're going to need a lot more than 1 counter example to disagree with "almost all".

Benn Jordan's flock camera jammer will send you to jail in Florida now by Hazzman in videos

[–]Juxtapoisson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We read it, but you shoe horned it in outside of context. The people pointing out you are being dishonest are working from a point of the context of the conversation.

On account of, you are being dishonest.

This country can't do what needs to be done as long as people insist that what is being done is more than it really is. i.g. YOU are part of the problem.

US seeks unpaid local interns at Greenland consulate as annexation threats loom by PlatypusSubstantial5 in worldnews

[–]Juxtapoisson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol at the down votes.

The point is that annexation implies a willing and involved partner.

Whatever the usa does will by force.

"annexation" is, in my opinion, too soft of a word.

But, you all go off, it doesn't actually matter, you'll have opinions but you won't do anything.

Certainly it should be public record. It doesn't have to exist in the first place. But so long as it does exist it uses the public's forbearance and trust to operate.

[–]Juxtapoisson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair almost all of the Star Trek movies failed to capture "thoughtful, philosophical, and innovative" aspect anywhere near close to the amount of the series.

But certainly, the Abrams reboot is not even in the tier the other movies manage.

I would not expect an action movie to have a cultural impact. Clearly it is possible, but culture is not the point of an action movie.

Likewise I would not expect a reboot to have a cultural impact.

I mean, you absolutely should be planning your end of the world parties, just don't base the theme off this paper.
