The specific kind of government you are pitching for is solely and directly responsible for the unjustifiable and cowardly mass murder of unarmed women and children with napalm bombs and hellfire missiles that occurred in the invasions of K

I'd wholeheartedly agree with your assessment of the best course of action. To the points raised in the conversation above: there is definitely too little understanding of the pattern and too much blind adherence to the pattern as a wi

Per Chesterton's Fence, isn't this the right course of action for any individual who is unsure of why the practice was started? https://www.lesswrong.com/w/chesterton-s-fence

The state is the only entity that infringes on my rights. Private parties have never tried to strip me of my right to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, right to bear arms, my right to privacy, my right to private property / the f

The liberal Federal government was also the one who legalized those practices in the first place. Slavery and racial segregation doesn't exist in nature, the legal practice of both only ever existed thanks to government having a monopo

No, it's half a dozen examples that already happened in real life (5 quite literally, 1 with digital fingerprinting of network traffic instead of physical fingerprints). This isn't parody or satire, it's history. I am not com

Have you tried with frontier models from other providers, like Anthropic, Alphabet, xAI, etc? I am finding the capabilities with this specific test to be vary quite wildly among "leading" models.

The criminal justice system does not prevent crimes, they just investigate a small handful of crimes, arrest even fewer, and prosecute even fewer. The federal government, further, has almost zero role in policing. Unless you live in DC, the

Just to be clear, you're preaching to the choir. My preference would be for the entire intelligence community along with the rest of the entirety of the US federal government being dismantled as swiftly as is peacefully possible. That

There is no contract between taxpayer and government. We use "the social contract" as a polite euphemism for the terms of tyranny we live under. Real contracts offer a chance for all signatories to consider the terms and the oppor

So, like the excessive prosecution of men, who receive sentences about twice as long as women for committing the exact same crimes, on average? Men are prosecuted at far higher rates than women, too.

Don't apologize for that insight. Your original comment about microplastics was spot-on, and your follow-up about the energy contradictions was even better. The downvotes sting, but they usually mean you're onto something importan

Undoubtedly a better system, but the 395 variant with a full 128GB of (soldered on) RAM, you're looking at ~$2k for the system. Comparing that to a $250 dGPU (that arguably isn't even worth that) is a very "apples to oranges&

My quote was copied and pasted directly from your message. Again, the actual decline in proportional male income and wealth isn't mutually exclusive with male interest in income and wealth rising. If anything, the realized decline is a

You made a claim later in the exchange, which is what I am responding to. Your claim - "Those fields (wealth, competitive sport) aren’t in decline among young men.". Men's proportional share of income is in decline, and w
