The same treaties that define what are international waters also define universal jurisdiction for some crimes - every country is allowed to exercise their sovereignty against pirates for example. The list "just" needs to be expanded.

Lol, they don't even match consistently between Portuguese and Spanish which are much closer, even when the noun is literally the same (e.g.a água vs el água)

We understand reasoning enough to know humans (and other animals with complex brains) reason in a way that LLMs cannot.

While our reasoning also works with pattern matching it incorporates immeasurably more signals than language - language is almost peripheric to it even in humans. And more importantly we experience things, everything we do acts as a small training round not just in language but on every aspect of the task we are performing, and gives us a miriad of patterns to match later.

Until AI can match a fragment of this we are not going to have an AGI. And for the experience aspect there's no economic incentive under capitalism to achieve, if it happens it will come out of an underfunded university.

We can solve those problems directly or indirectly by tying superman to a dynamo. With free energy even the issues with materials can be solved over time.

*Portuguese. We also use it as informal greeting in Portugal, and I'm pretty sure it's universal to all portuguese speaking countries.

For the impeachment itself, assuming the Democrats all vote for it, Musk only needs to buy 9 republicans.

For the trial, he needs to get 20 republicans for the two thirds. It's not going to be cheap, but it sounds doable.

The problem is that leaves Vance in charge, and a focused autocrat is not an upgrade.

Germany it's because of the holocaust (funny that it never translates into wanting to make a safe homeland for Roma people at all costs).

US it's because of Christian death cults wanting a new temple in Jerusalem because they think it will bring Jesus back.

Benny was caught giving weapons to the Islamic Fucking State and for some reason decided to own it.

 

An additional executive order meant to "protect the United States from foreign terrorists and other national security and public threats" is undeniably meant to apply to pro-Palestinian protesters across America, particularly on college campuses.

 

The driver ... came to Germany in 2006. But he is not an Islamist ... on the contrary: He was apparently a radical critic of Islam and sympathized with the AfD – and Elon Musk.

A new study published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics suggests the satellites are emitting "unintended" radiation from the electronics onboard the satellites.

These low-frequency radio waves, are being picked up by telescopes designed to scan that frequency range. That's because this range also happens to be instrumental to deep space observations.

 

A Harvard behavioral scientist, who has extensively studied honest behavior, has been accused of fabricating study results — and yes, the jokes write themselves.

 

New evidence strongly suggests that OceanGate's submersible, which imploded and killed all passengers on its way to the Titanic wreck, was unfit for the journey. The CEO, Stockton Rush, bought discounted carbon fiber past its shelf life from Boeing, which experts say is a terrible choice for a deep-sea vessel. This likely played a role in the submersible's tragic demise.
