I’m getting to it dammit

Blocking ml is a frequent topic of discussion, as it’s widely considered to be propaganda unconnected to reality.

I thought I’d blocked ml already. Guess I need to do that again.

Both things can be true, China has very tight control of media and they’re officially doing only stuff to terrorists. It’s literally impossible to hide carpet bombing apartment blocks anywhere in the world. Disappearing people into reeducation camps inside isn’t.

It’s not ai specific. It’s literally everything including basic stuff like sorting newsletters into its own category. That’s why I said it’s all or nothing. It’s just called " smart features" and they’ve had it for a decade, long before ai became a thing. But if you decline then you decline everything. That’s how they do it. They make a huge category and if you decline then you decline everything including things that are considered pretty basic.

The only option is smart features, on or off. That requires Google to read the email to categorize them and do a lot of basic stuff. It doesn’t let you narrowly have more privacy on specific features. It’s all or nothing, and if you get a lot of emails then it’s hard to turn it off if you already use categories. Google always does all or nothing because they know people need some of it, same with location. It has to be precise location tracking to use things, you can’t just do rough location.

Asymmetric warfare basic.

No one that is an American politician will be directly financed by Russia. It would always be indirect or hidden shell companies.

Senate investigation is sadly partisan and doesn’t mean much anymore. They’ll find what they wanted to find.

Lol. I just have a writing style that I use. It can be considered eclectic with a mix of various influences. The pluralized word is a buffy “whedonesque” influence.

But the point is that Russia has been running alternative warfare efforts and cyber stuff for a long time. They stoke various movements and invent ideas and spread them with bots and shills. Basically anything that strengthens Russian imperialism and weakens or fractures NATO.

Weakening NATO is their goal.

There’s been a number of news coverages of this. It’s not like it’s the biggest operation or anything but they have been trying to plant that seed intentionally.

Lots of it is still pretty shit, but that’s what happens when you have an entry on incredibly obscure things where there’s not a lot of sources information.

California and West Coast separatism is most strongly advocated by Russian agents seeking to weaken the US.

We’re still limited by what the HDMI and DP cables can throughput so it’s not like 8k tvs are even ready. Nobody wants an 8k tv if the cables can’t even transmit full fat uncompressed signal.

Just using an old phone without a modem plan is the easiest and cheapest option. You can put a custom rom on it.

The dairy and long distance transportation parts of it have much higher carbon emissions than the plastic packaging. Plastic pollution is usually a distraction.

It mostly only matters if there is buttercream frosting on top, which can melt easily if it gets warm. Cheesecake by itself is fairly durable.

That’s cardboard

There’s still the political organization with leaders and they claim to have a few hostages that are still alive.
