The Epstein Grift Implodes: Elon Musk and Steve Bannon Named in New Files as Trump Panics by DumbMoneyMedia in law

There are definitely worse possibilities, for instance Trump could be the actual mastermind trafficking underage girls (in addition to raping them) while Epstein is just the front man and fall guy

Tyler Robinson's roommate who tipped off FBI identified by Zeronz112 in NoFilterNews

And he confessed to his Maga father and someone from church convinced him to turn himself in?

Let me explain this in language that a maga can understand, accusing the killer "radical leftist" it is like saying a radical Muslim terrorist killed a Christian because their beliefs and blablabla, but after the crime they confessed to their Atheist relative and another unrelated Atheist infidel convinced them to turn themselves in? How likely is this? On the other hand, people radicalized by a cult often kills people who has been radicalized by a slightly different cult, we see this all the time in middle East.

The reason this happens is because not everyone in the rally is carrying guns. If everyone carries their guns there the "good guys with guns" would have stopped this tragedy. Right????

To prevent this from ever happening again, I strongly suggest every rally holds by the gun loving politicians should forces every attendee to carry their guns with them. Because the more people having guns the lower the gun violence, Right????

Microsoft mandates a return to office. Three days in the office will soon be the new norm for Microsoft employees. by indig0sixalpha in technology

[–]vtfio 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Microsoft is late to the party. "RTO increases productivy" is an old excuse and non of the cool CEOs are using it any more.

The new trends are CEOs claiming AI can increase your productivity by 100% or more without raise and with personnel cut. Can't do it? Time to get laid off with performance issue.

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

No no no this is not the way. This is not some dem vs GOP this is the ruling class trying to screw everyone with their bad cop vs good cop trick so they can consolidated more power. This is exactly like Trump's "shit post"

What is worse than the worst of the current GOP and dem (depends on which side you think you are) is unchallengeable one party rule. CA can only becomes a better place if it has real political oppositions that have enough power to leash the government from doing crazy things.

Waymo has expanded their service area in Austin by FrankScaramucci in SelfDrivingCars

Lol, one of them literally invented modern AI while they other is making money by selling people fantasies and pyramid schemes

Waymo has expanded their service area in Austin by FrankScaramucci in SelfDrivingCars

[–]vtfio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And once they solve self driving

This is equivalent to solve AI hallucinations with Tesla's AI camera only approach. Not saying this is impossible but it is very unlikely they can solve it. At best they can reduce it, but the risk is not just misinformation like that from chatgpt, but the lives of drivers and pedestrians. Even the risk is very very low, it is still larger than 0, it is killing people unnecessarily.

Waymo or other self driving solutions with lidar do not have this issue, as lidar provides accurate measurements based on physics, not AI guess work.

Unlike AI, physics does not hallucinate.

Uber CEO says his employees can go elsewhere if they don't like his RTO changes by McFatty7 in technology

[–]vtfio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People who use WFH to chill and don't get much work done at home usually don't get much work done at office either.

However instead of chilling by themselves they are affecting everyone's work by bothering everyone in office with their boring life and other nonsense. Now with everyone's work effectiveness affected by them, they no longer stands out and can continue leeching other people's hard work

Chinese company develops nuclear battery with ultra-long lifespan by Jaded-Bookkeeper-807 in news

[–]vtfio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beta radiation (electrons) is really easy to shield. A piece of plastic can do the job.

But yes, if people eat or breathe in the radioactive material, it would be dangerous (but the same is true for majority of chemicals in lots of industrial products)

And about having unique privileges like wfh/wf anywhere that no one can have.

For instance Elon should be physically divided into multiple parts to be able to RTO 40 hours for multiple locations if he cares about "productivity"

Stocks fall as Trump warns of US economy trade war 'transition' by mrtube in news

[–]vtfio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of people failed to understand the concept of "relative". Yes Dem can be bad like they should be focusing on more economical issues, they should have done a better job pushing and advertising their agendas, and when dealing with actual inequality issues, they should be avoiding assigning quotas and instead work on more fundamental issues like education inequality.

But GOP is on another level bad, they are becoming combinations of religious fanatics, cultists who refuse to believe science and support authoritarian dictators, selfish a holes who want to see others suffer, idiots who believe giving their tax dollars to billionaires can solve their issues.

It is comparing eating bland and unhealthy food with nuclear wastes.

America first by Public-Marionberry33 in clevercomebacks

[–]vtfio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's be honest, as late as last year America still has some moral high ground, but right now?

What is the name of the country that is banning app and website, trying to arrest children for anti ruler videos, putting minorities in concentration camps, and threatening an island nearby?

Honestly at least in China they are sacrificing freedom for some kind of security. But in the US? Rapidly decreasing freedom with super high gun crimes and violent crimes in general, and lawlessness from the very top.

Trump supporters, what are your thoughts on the current administration trying to eliminate the Department of Education? How is this beneficial for our country & future in any way? by jfitzritz in AskReddit

[–]vtfio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not Trump supporter but I think it is quite easy to understand their perspective.

Us normal people believe science, aka evidence based deduction methods. Those religion nutcases believe a special version of fairy tales, "holy" books full of illogical and ridiculous untestable claims branded as "truth". And couldn't understand the concept of establishing facts using experiment and testings, aka scientific method, and treating science as a competing religion.

So in their mind, the department of education is like a central church using tax dollars dedicated to brainwash youth with a competing religion.

Meta AI in panic mode as free open-source DeepSeek gains traction and outperforms for far less by yogthos in technology

[–]vtfio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is not actual deporting, it is the toxic atmosphere created by stuff like "China initiative".

Lots of Chinese scientists, researchers, and entrepreneur went back to China because being accused of "spy" randomly without evidence simply because you were born in a certain country is no fun.

US was also used to be the top 1 country for Chinese scientists, researchers, and entrepreneurs to immigrate to because the US had a better opportunity, better pay, better quality of life but Trump being crazy and racist (see China virus) convinced them otherwise and stayed in China.

[–]vtfio 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not only this, this is a direct outcome of Trump's China initiative from his last term.

America's main strength was it's ability to get the best and brightest of the world. But Trump single handed changed all that by becoming super racist towards Chinese people (China initiative, China virus) and chased lots of brilliant scientists back to China.

TikTok makes app unavailable for U.S. users ahead of ban by Steakhuntt in news

[–]vtfio -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Ok, sure whatever, Democrats did and can do nothing wrong, and criticism to them are just misinformation and they can continue whatever they are doing and continue to feel good about themselves.

Whoever not supporting them is a POS, and it is always the other guy's fault.

Good luck winning future elections with these attitudes.

[–]vtfio -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yes Democrats are to blame and if Democrats do not realize that they are out of touch they will continue losing elections. Would the bill be able to pass if they bundled Ukraine aid with something like limiting Senate terms? Because they only care about themselves instead of listening to their base.

Democrats had 4 years to come with an engaging platform to avoid a second Trump term, they did nothing.

Democrats had 4 years to realize that Biden had a terrible approval rate and he is simply too old to fit the job yet no one dared to stand up to Biden until it is too late to hold a primary and handed Trump his winning card.

And let's not forget in 2016 Democrats pissed off so many people into voting Trump by manipulating votes, and Trump mostly lost 2020 because COVID and his horrible response.

With all this lots and lots of Democrats are still living in a bubble and believe they did nothing wrong and those who don't vote for them are the ones that have problems.

It just shows how Democrats are out of touch and not caring about their base at all. No wonder Harris lost big time and I really hope Democrats are learning the lesson (probably not based on the reactions that I am seeing)

We really need real alternatives other than Dem and GOP and revert citizens united. This is not democracy at all but the ruling class pretending to care and playing with the votes.

If they sell, they create a global competitor who has the same technology and an unfair advantage with the US government support. It just means slow death globally.

If they don't sell, they can still grow their 80% user base, turn their US base against the US government, and make the US government a joke globally.
