  1. Hey @ChickenSandwich what's the Ministry of Truth saying about this peaceful and lawful citizen being abducted and illegally held in violation of his constitutional right?
  2. The Jug is one of my favorite warbirds, thanks for sharing that deep dive!
  3. Even if/when Trump TACOs, the damage is done with our historic strategic partners and allies. Those bridges are burnt and will take generations (or post WWII style denazification) to rebuild the trust
  4. IMO, adding ads isn't going to generate the tens is billions in revenue. This isn't gonna help the business and it's mainly an optics play to keep useful idiots investing and to not pull their money out

    Well I for one am glad the children are gone and the adults are in charge, right @realgreggym ?
  6. it was burning at 2 this afternoon, we should have heeded the ill omen
  7. We've already been there. Some models are better in different fields or tasks than others, but they're all just commodity at this point. The base technology of LLM's has been scaled lazily and greedily - in the technical sense - in that there haven't been many changes or advances to how the data is compiled, or models are trained, since the boom started a few years ago. Deepseek had the biggest step forward with applying a GAN architecture to train smaller portions of the LLM at a time rather than everything all at once, but even then the resulting model is still a commodity that is fungible with any other LLM. Even moreso if you're running your whole stack locally, since you really have no financial ties to the parent companies that build the LLMs. IMO, as someone who's been in the machine learning space since 2019, the majority of LLM service buying is being driven by idiot executives not wanting to look like they're falling behind. Not by any actual returns on the time or money. That said, there are actual good and interesting uses for the technology, but it's not what the trillions and trillions have been spent and committed on
  8. If only there were some warning, or trend of past business ventures that could inform us of such an outcome in advance!
  9. IMO the message was moreso that Mamdani is actually listening and getting results, and that cuts through the noise pretty well. The MAGAs still thought trump is doing the right thing, they just appreciated that they actually got something for their vote from Mamdani

    Tucker really was the straw that broke the camel's back
  11. It's gonna be real interesting to see how this hits, if the markets are out of their k-hole and actually responding to events instead of just LGU
  12. Counterpoint: More Perfect Union did a really interesting deep dive on the strange newly budding "MAGA Mamdani" voter bloc Around 10% of Mamdani's voters are MAGA? Strange strange stuff
  13. They're too worried about mortgage fraud and drug smugglers, while their president is committing mortgage fraud and pardoning cocaine kingpins. Not to mention setting up the next in line for more drug action AP NewsAP obtains documents showing Venezuelan leader Delcy Rodr...The Associated Press has learned that Delcy Rodríguez, Venezuela's acting president, has surfaced in nearly a dozen DEA investigations, several of which remain ongoing.WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Donald Trump announced the audacious capture of Nicolás Maduro to face drug trafficking charges in the U.S., he portrayed the strongman’s vice president and longtime aide as America’s preferred partner to stabilize Venezuela amid a scourge of drugs, corruption and economic mayhem. Left unspoken was the cloud of suspicion that long surrounded Delcy Rodríguez before she became acting president of the beleaguered nation earlier this month. In fact, Rodríguez has been on the radar of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration for years and in 2022 was even labeled a “priority target,” a designation DEA reserves for suspects believed to have a “significant impact” on the drug trade, according to records obtained by The Associated Press and more than a half dozen current and former U.S. law enforcement officials. ... Almost immediately after Maduro’s capture, Trump started heaping praise on Rodríguez — this past week referring to her as a “terrific person — in close contact with officials in Washington, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
  14. It's not like they have a history of instigating riots to justify a crackdown right? ABC NewsMan who helped ignite George Floyd riots identified as wh...A masked umbrella-wielding man helped incite riots and looting in the immediate aftermath of George Floyd's death, police said..... Oops
  15. I can't tell if Europe suspending trade deals with the US over Greenland is good or not. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-17/eu-set-to-halt-us-trade-deal-over-trump-s-latest-tariff-threat
  16. Buying CBS was to wear its skin and launder their fascism into more mainstream discussions, so that useful idiots not paying attention will just okeydoke and go along because TV say so
  17. I've got a bridge with a private beach in Nebraska you might be interested in buying
  18. Can we get one of our correspondants to the Trump Ministry of Truth to explain how pepper spraying and assaulting Getty photojournalists is a good thing? The image won't embed outside of bluesky so here's a screenshot. He posted more of what happened on his Instagram https://www.instagram.com/stories/john_abernathy_/3811407304172945177
  19. It bears repeating, Donald Trump was a WWE Hall of Famer before his first term. You're more on the nose than you know
  20. There is a court martial and corroborating evidence included on the accusation, which does give it credibility. If the court martial exists, at least.
  21. A horrible reality is that most child abuse and child sexual abuse happens from people already close to the victim child. It's never talked about because people always want to protect Uncle Jim Bob. Like, the fucking Duggar family for example, who kept hiding their eldest son's abuse of at least four of their daughters
