lol welp let’s just say I’m not optimistic

Even if the Supreme Court rules against Trump in the case, there’s no guarantee that Trump will abide by the decision. In a Thursday interview with The New York Times, Justice Amy Coney Barrett admitted that the Supreme Court has no power to ensure the president obeys its decisions.

Ok

Talk to me, goose

Because you can’t “program it to not attack China”. That’s such a wildly vague statement and system goal as to be essentially impossible to fulfill.

You can degrade or impair or disable certain systems in response to specific stimuli (e.g. a “kill switch” transmission/signal [that is itself a bit of a misnomer]) - like for instance, activate a radio beacon to diminish stealth (counterplay: wire cutters), or to offline external system integration/datalink (counterplay: none, it’s proprietary, closed source and largely classified), or any other number of things. It’s generally pretty hard to completely offline/mission-kill an airframe electronically (outside of an EMP, and even that’s not guaranteed when you’re talking about hardened, mil-grade components), because they’re specifically designed to be extremely resilient and fault-tolerant.

I understand what you’re saying, but I’m talking about stuff like what happens in the beginning of Ministry for the Future.

So while I understand what you mean, it’s not actually that simple.

As an American, I fully and enthusiastically agree. Hell, if you let me, I’ll move there and lend my expertise to the effort.

Honestly China’s weapons exports are probably going to absolutely skyrocket, now that Russia is… preoccupied, and the US is busy pissing literally everyone off. Sweden and France will probably see pretty big gains too. Korea and Poland too, for armor

Good job Russian citizens who are standing up to Putin

I am fully resigned to the fact that we’re going to see catastrophic climate alterations within my lifetime

Tbh if that’s the only value-add that windows can come up with compared to linux gaming in the long run… that’s a great argument for boycotting the games that insist on using that shit - or at least, insist on using insecure / shitty anticheat that’s incompatible with Linux, and/or requires comically and inappropriately broad permissions

Justified Russophobia (there are many more examples across ten centuries from all over the Baltic states, central, southern, and Eastern Europe, and Eurasia to boot).

No, you just never saw the meme before. It’s an old one.

I made a joke on a zoom meeting and nobody laughed

Turns out I’m not remotely funny

Edit:

Also, if your org has agentic summaries turned on, have some fun with it: join the meeting a few minutes early; the agent should join with you. Then start screaming about how the titanic is sinking, or the mongol hordes are invading, or that the Dominion has cut off supplies at AR 558, or the borg have broken through to sector 001, or the emus have broken the line and all is lost… you get the idea. This makes the post-meeting generated summary much more entertaining.
