Y'all are focused on the wrong things.

How precarious is the AI investment bubble that a single LLM with a single architecture innovation, that ships with a keyloggers and has the cybersecurity practices of my Aunt Kathy, and faced zero scrutiny or vetting, can "shock" the industry and drop Nvidia 14% in a day?

Bubble gonna pop soon, folks. Get your popcorn ready.

Moving left and destroying rule of law are not, by definition, opposites.

Building resilient, rights respecting, widely trusted, and protective institutions is the opposite of tearing it all down, and Dems haven't been good at that in 30 years other than Obama doing a lot to boost up OMB to utilize data and evidence in decision-making. And just look how that's going at this point.

It's how both of them work, Trump's emails are structured the same way.

"Donate today or a [person from a political party] will eat your baby! Only [candidate] can stand up to the mean ol' [other party]."

Then 3 days later, video of the two opposing candidates sitting together, laughing, sharing a bottle of scotch, and their spouses sharing recipes at an event.

Rescinds the EO to stop a court case. The freeze is still happening, just without making it super public.

A Trump administration official explained that Wednesday’s move was taken to end the confusion over Monday’s directive and end the federal injunction against it. The official said it would not halt the intended freezing of funding that conflicts with Trump’s executive orders.

And that's also only on domestic funding, foreign assistance is still frozen.

It really is terrible. I've tried a dozen times to get it to do anything that the free version of GPT can do...fails every time on the few things it even tries.

They've learned from the GOP that you can be very financially successful saying you're the only group that can do anything to help...with just a little bit more money.

Then every time you try and do something, it fails because you didn't have enough money, and blame everyone else.

Oh, for sure. No one wanted to care much about how it might be used against them prior to November.

Tuta is fine, but very basic.

The stuff with Proton... It depends on what you need. Just an alternative to degoogle your life, it'll work for now, but they may slide into a more pro Broligarchy stance in years to come. For some people, they're still a little too invasive for what they want.

Email is inherently insecure, so its best to lock down a few and just fluidly transition around as you need.

Because it's the Executive Branch and the President is the Chief Executive. Every agency in the US Federal government, other than a couple under Congress, are directly under the President.

....who else would it be?

Budgets and the laws that govern what those agencies can do, that's Congress.

Validating who is right in an argument about what the laws mean, that's the Judicial Branch.

tl;dr Facial recognition, phone tracking data, DNA, and all the other tools CBP has had on hand for 5 years.

Basically all the things I tried to warn people about between Nov and January.

Are you me? It was the first NES game I opened, before I even had the NES.

Still haven't beaten it. I don't think I ever even made it through every level.
