You may think that the fact that Twitter is now hemorrhaging money is a sign that Elon Musk is a bad businessman with poor judgment but the reality is the company was already losing money when he paid $44 billion for it.

She was the head of the SF GOP, had donated to some of Kamala Harris’s earlier political campaigns, and was a board member of the ACLU at one time, though despite those other credentials, she was certainly a Trumper.

(What is ChatGPT:
ChatGPT is a prototype dialogue-based AI chatbot capable of understanding natural human language and generating impressively detailed human-like written text. It is the latest evolution of the GPT - or Generative Pre-Trained Transformer - family of text-generating AIs)
(Who made ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a conversational chatbot. It has been developed by Elon Musk-founded independent research body OpenAI. The organisation was co-founded by its current CEO Sam Altman and Elon Musk in 2015)
I challenged the #ChatGPT AI to “write a letter to Vladimir Putin proposing a plan to end the war with Ukraine, appealing to his ego.”

One more thing Trump refuses to get is that whoever becomes President during the swearing in ceremony remains legal president even if it later turns out that there truly was some epic fraud that brought them into office. They could be impeached or whatever, but until then they’re the one and only legal president. The reason for this is the stability of power. Any new president doesn’t have to worry about whether or not they will be retroactively declared illegitimate due to pure political shenanigans and thus all of the laws they signed etc.
‘The Hungry Tree’ at Kings Inns, Constitution Hill, Dublin pic.twitter.com/CtLwwvRQ02

The Hungry Tree in Dublin is an 80-year-old London Plane tree that’s currently in the process of devouring a cast iron bench. As the years have passed, the tree has grown, causing it to swallow the parts of the structure that stands in its way. Its gnarled bark now spills over the back of the bench, making it appear as though the seat is being sucked into the tree’s trunk.
It isn’t the first tree to eat something that stood in its way. Other trees around the world have acted similarly when faced with an obstacle that intrudes upon their growth. Still that hasn’t stopped the Hungry Tree from being listed by the Tree Council of Ireland as one of Ireland’s Heritage Trees.

I’m guessing someone trying to advance their own agenda by riding on the Trump train. So grifter, I suppose.
From what I recall (from more than a decade ago) , her support for the ACLU was for anti-religious discrimation cases — she’s a Sikh and there were and are numerous cases, where religious Sikhs have been forced to remove their turbans or are not allowed for jobs which aren’t necessitated for safety reasons.
Edit: Seemingly, she’s a standard right-winger, otherwise.

But that’s not compelled speech. Neither is baking a cake for a gay couple. The issue at hand isn’t that the web designer is compelled to provide their services, but that they chose to provide a service, yet want to not provide that service based on the sexual orientation of the client. It’s not ‘compelled’ any more than a diner is ‘compelled’ to serve a black man if they come in. The vendor is offering a service. They are allowed to withhold service if they so choose, but cannot do so based on a protected class such as race, gender or sexual orientation.
If the threshold is ‘using a different web designer’, then a black man can ‘use a different diner’.

re: #39 Renaissance_Man
But that’s not compelled speech. Neither is baking a cake for a gay couple.
But It is, if they’re being forced to provide the service. You’re telling them that they have to tacitly approve of gay marriage by providing services for gay couples seeking to get married. That’s why this whole debate is so fucking weird. Because I don’t necessarily want to force these businesses to have to provide services to people with whose values they disagree, because that’s state-compelled speech… but that’s also literally the point of anti-discrimination laws: To require businesses to provide services to people they would ordinarily choose not to. It’s a logical contradiction introduced by the whole “corporations are people too” case law precedent, and I really don’t know what to say or do about it. I’m just presenting here Mr. Cohen’s reasoned opinion, and as he is a seasoned litigator, I’d imagine he has some idea what he’s on about. There’s a spirited debate in the comments.
Here. A sample:
Fair point. Maybe the analysis then involves where to draw the line between expressive conduct vs providing a service.

This is probably an even clearer example of what, to me, is a “clear as mud” situation.
The dividing line is when the service itself requires some artistic talent or message. For example, a bakery can’t put up a no Jews allowed sign, but it absolutely can refuse to sell a cake decorated with the message Jews are the best

re: #66 Grunthos the Flatulent
Gaslighting? Uncontrolled burnoff at the wellhead.
Oil fields of Kuwait burning during Gulf War level gaslighting..
Until last month, Thomas Achord’s friends in the increasingly assertive world of right-wing Christian nationalism saw him as an upstanding member of their movement.The headmaster of a Baton Rouge school that teaches “classical Christian education,” Achord hosted a podcast with the author of a new book advocating for Christian nationalism. In the insular online community where Christian nationalists debate how to live out their values in a secular world—perhaps by abandoning society altogether or by rallying around an American Caesar who will impose their values by force—Achord was seen as a rising star.
Then someone found his secret Twitter account.
Achord lived a clandestine second life on Twitter, under the vaguely ancient-sounding name “Tulius Aadland.” There, he called a Black member of Congress a “negress” and Black teenagers “chimps.” Achord opined about his desires for a “race realist white nationalism.” He complained that the middle school-aged stars of a Netflix movie simply weren’t hot enough for him. He expounded on his ideas about “Jewish satanism” and argued Jewish people were tricking the United States into “Jew wars.”
Achord’s two worlds collided shortly before Thanksgiving, when Twitter users connected his public profile with the Tulius account. Confronted with evidence that he ran the account, including a picture taken inside his school, Achord was quickly fired.
Achord initially denied the account belonged to him. Three days later, he tried a novel defense, admitting that he did run the account but that, stricken by a sort of Twitter-only amnesia, he had no memory of writing it.
Achord insisted there were contradictions between himself and the “Tulius” person that he couldn’t reconcile. For example, while he wrote on the Tulius account that he would never go to a Mexican restaurant, his Mexican mother had made him food as a child.
Achord’s secret Twitter account has occasioned much agonizing in the world of Christian nationalism, as his ideological compatriots publicly struggle to understand how one of their own could harbor such racist views. One called him a “stowaway” within Christian nationalism, smuggling racism into their beliefs.
But to Christian nationalism’s critics, the idea that the movement contains white supremacist ideas is no surprise. Even before America’s founding, Christian nationalism was used to justify taking Native American land and enslaving people, according to Philip Gorski, a Yale sociology and religious studies professor.
“It’s always been there,” Gorski said of the racism within Christian nationalism. “It just sunk out of view for some people.”

One of my favorite things about Glenn is how frequently and loudly he accuses the “left” of being hyperbolic.
Resharing one of Musk’s tweets about his plans for more “Twitter files,” Stone simply wrote: “Gross.”Musk originally teased the release of the so-called “Twitter Files” last week, claiming they would show “free speech suppression.” Some of the documents were shared on Twitter by Matt Taibbi, an author and journalist who writes the Substack newsletter TK News.
One of the revelations focused on internal Twitter communications about the controversial suppression of a news story concerning Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Insider’s Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert reported that the files showed the 2020 Biden presidential campaign asked Twitter to remove posts, including nude photos of Hunter Biden, which were already in violation of its revenge porn policy.
In an apparent reference to Musk, Stone later tweeted: “He’s not a serious person. He does things for sport that have serious consequences for real people.”
That’s one way of saying that he’s a sociopath.

All the shit we’re watching is just algorithms: stuff a machine that can sort things with enough data and it can sew together something that approximates the features of the example set.
It’s being sold as AI because that’s…cooler…and ducks around how the entire process is built on the sheer quantity of scraped data, and also because the idea that it’s “thought” covers for the fact it’s just pattern recognition. The system cannot be better than its data set, and cannot “understand” what it is doing: it can only more efficiently do what most of the examples do.
So, for example, if you train an algorithm to process loans on human data, the AI will reflect the priorities of actual loan processors—including their tendency to turn down black people—without any reflection.
Thing is…I think this is part of the appeal of selling “AI” as a problem solving systems: it’s The Great and Powerful Oz, the conceit of machine intelligence Do The Thing Better while within the opaque algorithm there’s just human decisions.

re: #127 Eclectic Cyborg

No. It’s not a scam because there’s no direct deceit, but it’s still sinister and involves a lot of manipulation and dark uses of social psychology.
The conceit of the Metaverse is that you want to participate because it is the new axis of social connection and participation…and you have to rent or buy virtual things to participate. Ideally, adoption becomes so ubiquitous you have to participate or you’re cut out of “normal” life: the Meta Metaverse is marketing itself to businesses and as a meeting tool precisely because if get adoption at the top that requires some level of adoption below, just to function.
The working models for how this goes are, on one hand, the dominance of Apple, but on the other, social environments linked to consumption—to participate you have to pay—found in online games. The Metaverse is supposed to be like WoW, where the company makes money off the spontaneous social innovations players create as they form communities, but is also supposed to have “self expression requires buying DLC” component of games like Fortnite.
It’s…kind of worse than a scam. It’s the same thing crypto and NFTs want: everything is now monetized, and all things can be speculated on, and you cannot opt out.

The United Methodist Church is breaking apart as the homophobes split away in opposition to SSM.

Third-party report details ACNA leaders’ inaction on sexual abuse allegations
Released online late Tuesday, the report follows a monthslong investigation that was contentious from the start.
(from September) religionnews.com
These people broke off because they couldn’t deal with the possibility of LGBTQIA people being ordained or becoming bishops. So they went off on their own and guess what? They still have the same old priblems with abuse.
The local Methodist church appears to be completely staffed by women and a cursory look at their worship bulletins indicates they use language that’d be unacceptable to the breakoff anti-LGBTQIA Methodists, so I guess they’re staying. If I was into going to church (I’m not), I.might go there.

Brevard County Sheriff’s Office deputy Austin Walsh was killed Saturday morning in Palm Bay by his roommate Andrew Lawson, Sheriff Wayne Ivey said in a Sunday news conference.
The two were taking a break from playing online games with friends and were standing and talking together when Lawson, who believed he had unloaded his gun, “jokingly” pointed the weapon at Walsh and pulled the trigger, Ivey said, citing the probe by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Palm Bay Police Department.
A single bullet was fired, struck Walsh, and killed him, officials said.

Former Republican Congressman David Rivera has finally been indicted over a probe into his $50 million contract with Venezuela’s socialist government, a spokesperson in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami said in a statement.
According to NBC Miami, the former lawmaker was officially arrested in connection to the ongoing federal criminal investigation while in the Atlanta, Georgia airport. The indictment was handed down by the grand jury last month, said spokesperson Marlene Rodriguez. He paid bail on Monday afternoon after being processed.
The pressure was mounting over Rivera after the contract was revealed at a time President Nicolas Maduro was trying to curry favor with former President Donald Trump in the early days of the administration.
“Rivera’s Interamerican Consulting was sued in 2020 by PDV USA — a Delaware-based affiliate of Venezuelan-owned Citgo — alleging the former congressman performed no work as part of the contract he signed in 2017 for three months of ‘strategic consulting’ meant to build bridges with key U.S. stakeholders,” said the Miami news outlet.

The article included the following:
Some conservatives of character, like Erick Erickson, Jonah Goldberg, Max Boot, Lindsey Graham and Mitt Romney, have denounced Trump. They would rather their party lose the White House in 2016 than turn America’s future over to an unstable man who could well gain access to the nuclear codes.
Erick Erikson and Lindsey Graham quickly fell in line with Trump. Romney auditioned for a position in the administration. Eichenwald was right about Trump’s character but very wrong about most Republicans who initially denounced him. Boot has been the only one listed who has been consistent in his opposition. The party does not object to fascism, only to their failure to win races and take control of the House and Senate. The fascists are on target to run the House — let’s see whether that victory will lead to more power for them and how much damage it will inflict on our nation.

Right now, Bateman is only (*only*) accused of trafficking women and girls by moving them around between Utah, Arizona and Nebraska. While Bateman was arrested back in September, this moved back into the public eye because of two incidents—several of the “wives” disappeared from where they’d been placed in group homes here in Phoenix, but were found last week in Spokane and the feds filed an affidavit last Friday.
Rolling Stone has an overview of the affidavit and it’s ugly folks. I’m putting it behind a button because it’s *disgusting*.

Now the reason I brought this up is to make this observation. Warren Jeffs has been in custody since 2006 (doesn’t seem that long ago, but he wasn’t actually convicted until 2011). He’d only been “profit” since 2002, unlike his father Rulon, who had run the show since 1986 to 2002. So he’s been in state custody since 2006, which is the same amount of time his father was profit. While was able to hold on to his people for a long time, a lot longer than I would have expected for a guy who is going to spend the rest of his life as a guest of the Texas Department of Corrections. So that the FLDS is fragmenting should be of no surprise to anyone. That said, apparently, Samuel Rappylee Bateman is now claiming that he’s the “translated Warren Jeffs,” which is super conveeeeeenient, since ole Warren is, as I said, stuck in a TDOC prison and never getting out.
I am sure there are probably another half dozen guys who think of themselves as either Jeffs’ successor or some such, the whole thing is just creepy.

re: #187 PhillyPretzel
To be honest I would have to look up what the requirements are for PA.
Pretty similar to the others. Passport or birth certificate and some documents like utility bills with the correct (and current) address. The fun part might be finding a DMV that processes them since most of them do not. I looked into it right after I moved when my license came up for renewal and found only one location for PA Real IDs near Pittsburgh.

re: #218 darthstar
Jack be thick.
Jack also be a parody account. CA’s 54th district. That reminds me of the guy who was from WA 11. I thought he was a real congressman for months.
Of course, Elon may not figure it out so let’s watch it play.
Here is what Virginia requires for RealID:
- One proof of identity
- One proof of legal presence
- Two proofs of Virginia residency
• Two from the primary list, or
• One from the primary list and one from the secondary list
- One proof of your social security number, if you’ve been issued one
- Current driver’s license if you are applying to exchange one issued by another U.S. state, territory or jurisdiction for a Virginia driver’s license
- Proof of name change if your name appears differently on your proof documents
There is a very specific set of documents that are considered to show proof of citizenship. (Citizenship is _one_ of the ways to establish legal presence. Also can be used to establish identity.):
Birth certificate showing birth in the United States;
Form N-550, Certificate of Naturalization;
Form N-560, Certificate of Citizenship;
Form FS-240, Report of Birth Abroad of United States Citizen; or
Valid unexpired U.S. passport.

The only accurate proof of “identity” is your DNA.
Everything else can be faked.
A birth certificate is just a piece of paper. If a county/state registered a birth by a name and date that someone claims is themselves, that does not mean it is them. They simply claim it.
We need DNA screening!
