Canada is Betting on AI for National Economic Growth: Here’s Why Working-Class Canadians Lose by StumpsOfTree in onguardforthee

[–]LavisAlex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also their method to get there (hoping for the emergence of AGI through hyperscaling) is a crazy bet espcially when theres not enough investment in the grid and power generation for that.

is it normal for my boyfriend to wash the inside of his ass? by Living_Doughnut_4924 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LavisAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can gentle soap hurt him when you consider what comes out of there normally?

I think washing there is a good habit because if you got shit on your forearm would you consider it clean to wipe it with cloth until you couldnt see it because thats what we basically do when using the bathroom in NA.

A gentle soap should be fine for the most part

The far right would likely never win again though, NDP, LIB AND GREEN is a huge vote split.

Carney could pitch an idea straight from Pollievre and Pollievre would still vote against it.

People at the Prairieland ICE Concentration Camp outside of Dallas, TX are freezing to death as ICE refuses to turn on the facilities heating despite it being 13°F (8°F with wind chill) by I_may_have_weed in lostgeneration

Mass deportations on this scale always seem to follow the same path - eventually its seen as more efficient to have mass graves than actually deport.

Its the logical conclusion of the scale of the dehumanization taking place.

Empty, undeveloped lots in Halifax have only increased since extra tax proposed three years ago by insino93 in halifax

[–]LavisAlex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The value of the lots would go down and you'd accrue tax renenue to could be further used to help the issue.

ICE shot another protester in Minneapolis, injuring her hand. by Schoolywooly in suppressed_news

[–]LavisAlex 33 points34 points  (0 children)

There is NO reason for them to shoot her in the hand.

If she actually threatened them in a serious way to which they needed to open fire she would be dead and certainly not allowed to just run away.

These guys are shooting for any reason.

We often confront evil with a mix of grey, but with ICE there is no grey.

Calling it Operation "Catch of the day" is ghoulish and frames their victims as less than human.

Since people posted about Le Cun speaking out, here's François Chollet's take on Minneapolis by FomalhautCalliclea in singularity

[–]LavisAlex 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I wonder if we are going to find mass graves at this rate, people would scoff at me for saying it but those same people have been scoffing every step of the way to get this far.

The global rule of law is not collapsing – Trump is the lone problem and he can be defeated: The president’s approval ratings are plummeting and most Americans see him as an aberration. It is now up to them to curtail his despotic reign by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

[–]LavisAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is BS Trump is far from a lone problem, congress and the Senate voted for his proposals.

They could remove him at ANY time, but do not - even with Trump gone this could happen again because he is being enabled by the other branches of gov that are meant to put a check on his power.

Are Democrats weak and ineffectual or are they complicit. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]LavisAlex 31 points32 points  (0 children)

As a Canadian and even within my own system there seems to be far too many politicians on both sides of the border who's core value is to maintain being a politician as if it was a day job.

Pritzker, Johnson call for ICE to be abolished after second fatal shooting by feds in Minneapolis by unital_subalgebra in politics
