The eggs are from these flappy guys:

unsent emails kept in the gmail drafts folder allows syncing notes across devices, and its searchable

Fox “News” and their malicious swarms of disinformation spreaders are concerned about losing their monopoly.

My guess is the month is most relevant to an agrarian society. It tells you where you are in the growing cycle that the entire culture revolves around. The day and year offer little practical utility to a 19th century farmer.

At that time, the first second of eternity will have passed.

We’ll be back the next time protons happen.

There is no escape.

A dozen, a hundred, there’s no way to tell.

yeah, just serve up some r34 animated rats and put cocaine in the beverages

There’s a lot to unpack here.

Lets start with the attempt to define “usefulness” as the degree to which connection to humans happens. Human connection on the internet has always been illusory. Yet we still find utility in it.

“Trusted sources” have always been 100% biased in favor of whoever owns them. We all have equal free speech rights, but some of us are more free than others because the ability to purchase a bigger megaphone scales with access to capital.

Organized, capitalized propaganda farms existed before LLMs and have been engaged in the same kind of destructive information warfare. LLMs seem to be more persuasive than the wage-slave humans employed by troll farms and other mass media outlets, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing if it manufactures a more rational public opinion.

LLMs lower the capital requirement to begin competing in the propaganda war. The biggest players who could afford to buy enormous media empires and fund human-generated influence operations are going to have to compete against the rest of us.

This planet has been a soulless hellscape longer than any of us have been alive, and LLMs are more likely to improve the situation than make it worse.

That’s rough buddy.

π == 3

That’s an excellent point.

I don’t really know what the launch detection sensors’ capabilities are. However, there’s probably a detectably different spectrographic signature from solid fuel rockets like ICBMs versus Neutron’s methalox.

What energy company is a natural monopoly?

edit: are you talking about utilities that produce and distribute energy, or the companies that provide fuel for them? Because a case can be made for mining operations like Exxon & etc to be subject to market competition, whereas natural monopolies like your local electric utility should be publicly owned, i.e. owned by the government, and not have ownership shares traded privately or in public markets.

Its inefficient for natural monopolies to not be owned by the government. Privatization increases cost and decreases quality of service.

they can’t be corrected or are never wrong

This is #1 for me. Its easy to spot, and they won’t be able to hide it because it would drive them nuts to admit fault.

They explicitly say as much.

If you are pissed about what the left [i.e. anti-capitalists] and the globalists [i.e. capitalists, aka the right] have done…

Wouldn’t even need to change the lyrics:

Now Tom said, "Mom, wherever there’s a cop beating a guy
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
Where there’s a fight against the blood and hatred in the air
Look for me, Mom, I’ll be there
