Casual gamer, love fantasy books, pretty left of center politically though I think I keep an open mind.
Because they're worried cartel members are using drones to cross the border, which is what they (incorrectly) thought was happening here.
The question is why they didn't loan out actual soldiers to run the equipment competently.

There's something in the thread about Starlink introducing registration, meaning that before they didn't "know" who was Russian, maybe? Or at least had some level of deniability

The CSAM stuff with Grok happened like a week or 2 ago, this search was mostly about data privacy stuff.
That just doesn't sound as good.
And I'm not sure how much Twitter should be held liable for the images Grok made (THEN, anyway, before they were made aware).

I'll never understand Musk's distaste for Lidar. From memory 1 every 55,000 miles is orders of magnitude more than Waymo

Then the cops will kill you or wound you then charge you with murder and more likely than not win, whether you think they should or not.
It’s just not a good idea, you aren’t coming out ahead in that scenario

Those are setbacks and if Garland had appointed Smith a year earlier those setbacks might have been overcome. We'll never know now.

If you got farmers to change their crops and habits you'd save a couple orders of magnitude more water.
Energy use by data centers is a real issue. Water use really, really isn't.

I think he tripped over the guy's leg toward then end (can't see the legs in the video but it looks like it) and so the agent thought the guy tripped him intentionally and so tackled him. Not what happened, dude was just standing there.

Well there would be fewer "people" able to do it, and they couldn't hide behind the company, they would have to own their decisions. So it'd be an improvement.
I care less about corporations having constitutional rights and think money just shouldn't be considered speech though.

They should be fined, and if they can't (or won't) get Grok to stop then you talk about putting them out of business.
People using your product in illegal ways shouldn't automatically mean the company gets put out of business.

Possible he was wrong, out of the loop on what Witkoff was doing. That level of incompetence is also bad though.

I think it's something about the RFK and Olivia Nuzzi affair, apparently before she was interested in RFK she had a fling with Mark Sanford and the details get weird?
I think. I'm trying to avoid it.

I have found that I want to talk AT people and think I've "won" much, much more than I want to argue with them.
Probably isn't great, but leaving a snarky reply and then muting them makes me feel a lot better than long back and forths.

? Policy wise and from a bargain perspective it was a horrible decision. Politics wise it's much, much murkier. The discharge petition was always going to be big news whenever Johnson had to bring the House back.

Doing what at parties? Being around Epstein isn’t a crime. If she saw men committing sex crimes she should say that. Any of them. So far very few actual accusations have been made. if there’s something here then SAY. IT.
