From my understanding it does. The only thing is, that while they have to let citizens back in, they don’t have to let their phone back in

Mine would get me barred, which is why I deleted voyager and metatext from my phone as I prepare to travel abroad. If they want to look at the facebook account I have not updated the past decade, then whatever.

I too jump for joy outside of the camera frame

there is no great boogeyman that you can point a finger at as “the bad guy”.

Well, there is no boogeyMAN but there is boogeyCLASS and they are the billionaire/trillionaire class

I haven’t seen it mentioned yet, but Lorex has options for wired and wireless cameras that store footage on the camera itself via sd card, or to a local NVR.

If the other companies also have AI executives then they will be more comfortable talking to each other in that AI language

To maximize labor savings, I think the AI could definitely replace the C-Suite of all companies. The humans currently in those roles are already wrong about what is actually needed at the ground level so no one will notice.

I feel like this should be crossposted to c/lemmybewholsome

People were still using zipdisks in 2002?

Frakking toasters

I grew up with #4

Making $120k but living like they made $60k would mean they are living in survival mode.

Don’t forget that while middle class people have some tiny wiggle room before financial collapse, they are still very vulnerable compared to the millionaire, billionaire, and now trillionaire classes.

Wasn’t Chomsky found to have connections to Epstein during his trial or sometime after he was convicted?

Chomsky did downplay the relationship to be much less than the wording here, though.

Edit: I forgot Epstein didn’t even make it through the trial, so I guess by conviction I mean his death.

TIL 2k is not synonymous with QHD

I got thrown of thinking they meant 'til, but they mean TIL= Today I Learned

That’s the first danger I thought of with masked plainclothes (secret) police who don’t identify themselves. Human traffickers can put on the same getup and kidnap someone in broad daylight and people would assume they are law enforcement.

I do want to also leave a comment that there is value in questioning narratives. Some people see a headline and believe it without question. I also use your same argument when my MAGA cousin throws a negative headline my way about immigrants, trans, or whatever the hot topic on Fox News is.

What I do to strengthen that argument is add other data and sources. Like, if it is about an immigrant committing a crime, I will include a study that shows immigrants are less likely to commit a crime, and actually more likely to be victim of a crime.

Idk, I just didn’t want to only pile on a ‘you’re wrong’ type of comment, but also encourage free thinking which is essentially the premise your comment is based on.

If you are looking for evidence that things like this are not just a series of individual bad actors, they also coordinated efforts to get into a helicopter, rappel down, and remove basically an entire apartment complex of citizens and alleged non-citizens alike from their homes out into the street. Some had to sit outside naked because they were not given time to put on clothing.

It was pretty good speech up until the end when he started saying the USA used to wage war and pass laws for moral reasons. That not only whitewashed USA history but also felt like a precursor to MAGA.

My MAGA cousin sent me pics of that avatar calling it his waifu, and I pointed out that it was the girl from Death Note. I then encouraged him to watch the anime since it is good. Sadly, he has not followed through with that suggestion.
