Yeah thats the “middle class”. They aren’t part of the working class (serfs) but also arent the hereditary owners of counties (nobles.).
Rich fucks who have more money than anyone else and yet bitch about how hard they have it has literally always been what “middle class” means.
Washington and Jefferson was middle class. FDR and JFK were middle class. King George, Queen Elizabeth and King Charles are not
The rich 1% are the middle class. America discarded the hereditary upper class when we banned titles of nobility.
In our free society there are only two classes : those with enough money that they never have to work again, and those without.
Why did you say “not your neighbor who voted for Trump” and then provide an example who absolutely [would have] voted for Trump?
As has been said elsewhere about everything Microsoft is pulling:
If your LLM was worth using you wouldn’t need to force anyone to use it.
Fun consequence of this: the ten commandments should be translated into WAY less formal English if want to be traditional.
“No murders y’all” weirdly doesn’t have the same punch when engraved on a stone tablet, though. (And most Americans can’t read ancient Hebrew.)

We know a bunch of ways to kill cancer cells. Unfortunately, we usually want to avoid killing the non-cancerous ones, which is considerably harder to do.
I wager we could get New Hampshire, Vermont, or Texas to challenge the uniform time act as a violation of the 9th amendment just for the fun of it.
I wouldn’t put it past California, either.
Most laptops or other portable computers are not repairable. Heck, even desktops these days are highly integrated with often just three chips and maybe a graphics card inserted into a motherboard.
If you really want reduced telemetry, switch to Linux NOW and only use systems that F/OSS folk approve of.
If you don’t need a PC for gaming, consider something like a raspberry pi.
LLMs are only about as useful in law practice as a uber-caffinated non-lawyer. The things simply don’t know the law, and any argument it may create should be checked with the same thoroughness that a lawyer would give that of a associate who was revealed to have had super early-onset dementia.
If you’re in the situation of going to court and are thinking of trusting the advice you get from a LLM, dont. You’d be better off appearing “pro se” with advice from the sovereign citizen movement.
(I mean, so long as you don’t try that admiralty court / all-caps pseudo-corp bullshit. The law is written in a keyword-less syntax with a case-insensitive parser. )
It was the message for when the phone service was disconnected. While this often happens after the person dies, it could have also meant they were away for an extended time. (Such as "I’m going to stay with my daughter for a few weeks after the birth of my grandchild.)
Absent other explanations, though, death is a probable explanation.for a grandmother’s phone being disconnected.
(Note that “poor with no money” is also possible, since phones cost money.)
Because, unlike oil, humans are a renewable resource.
Like, oil, however, too many of us is unsustainable.
AI will likely be similar to Asimov’s robot series, but just a bit grittier.
Better. That actually supports the assertion that Russia does engage in left-targeted disinformation (in Canada, on Twitter.)
It also supports the original point you dismissed as “wrong” – of the 90 “most influential” accounts, only 9 were subjectively identified as “Canadian far left”.
Maybe you should spend more time reading the actual articles, and not just their headlines?
True enough. But even a tyrannical government at least has a presumable intent of working for the betterment of its country. (Albeit through wrongheaded and small-minded means )
A.foreijgn power, especially a historical adversary and bad actor, is instead presumably working to harm or diminish us.
You presented it as proof that Russia is supporting misinformation on the left. To be that, it has to both include all three parts of the claim – that there is disinformation on the left, that Russia is covertly supporting disinformation, and that some of the disinformation on the left was supported by Russia.
If your wife sleeps around, and I engage in casual sex, it does not necessarily follow that I slept with your wife.
A common suspicion in America is that Vladimir Putin believes that Trump as POTUS is good for Russia, and that Putin interferes with US politics with a specific goal of helping Trump.
If you have some reporting that directly links Russia to left-wing disinformation I’d love to read it. But the BBC article I read after following your link didn’t have any such link.
Your article doesn’t seem to mention Russia once.
Rumors and smears are part of free speech. To the extent that right-wing trolls and their audience are actual voters, it’s essentially just a coarse form of ordinary political speech.
The extent to which a foreign government acting coverly is either creating or artificially boosting such content is scandalous.
25 is the age that some dude studying brains stopped looking, since it gets really hard to find study participants who are 7 years past freshmen in a university who’s longest tract is a 4 year undergraduate followed by a 3 year graduate.
Tech folk seem to not realize that “this image could have been faked!” has been a problem since the very first photographs.
Every step in evidence collection literally served to put someone’s name on it, so those people can go before a jury and say “yeah, that’s the stick i used to get the video from their security system”
They’re rarely called,.AFAIK, mostly because “that video must be faked” needs some corroborating evidence to be plausible. And for that matter, so does “this video shows him robbing my store!”
“possibly possible” is either redundant or unclear. Try:
“Not Necessarily necessary” is definitely redundant and unclear. Try:
(Unless you’re talking about taking antibiotics for anything but a bacterial infection, in which case “wasteful and dangerous” is better phrasing.)
