I don't think this is going to put the major ag conglomerates out of business.

That's not quite how it worked out with tractors and combines

But that guy who says this in act 2 does get promptly killed in act 3, which is pretty funny.

There are tone-deaf people in China. They interpret tonal differences through context.

However you personal issues understanding the world are not a universal philosophical truism. It's just you being an asshole.

Seems like there's only so much oil infrastructure we can bomb until "opening" the strait doesn't matter all that much in terms of what goes through it over the next 6 months.

Hey man, you’re the one writing banger gen-AI tiktok scripts with blood orifice Georg.

Wait Bluesky has a head of comms? That none of us have ever heard about or from?? LOL yikes

The problem we now face is that’s pretty compelling content

the Lugs and Palookas all furrow their granite brows, staring down at their huge clumsy feet

These tools do not deal with ambiguity and confidence levels well at all. Especially if you try to question them about it, which shifts the internal weights of their conclusion.

They work well for coding because you can have them run tests on the code and get a binary pass/fail.

In junior high, we'd casually debate if we'd die instantly in the first strikes, or if we'd would die slow, agonizing deaths in the fallout.

Or that there's enough chairs. I had to sit on the floor in some of the big lectures

Odin’s grandfather experienced a remarkable new beginning when he was licked free from a salt-encrusted slab of stone and ice by a primordial cow. And we’re lucky to have Icelandic manuscript SÁM 66 help us visualize this special event.

Is anyone else aware that quite a few Mormons believe that Bigfoot is actually the biblical Cain, cursed to wander the wilderness for eternity as punishment for killing his brother Abel? Apostle David W. Patten claims to have met him in the 1830s while camping in the woods around Paris, Tennessee.

He already holds the office of Flava, with all the experience and honors thereof. He's ready.

If—as you claimed—very few of us actually care whether or not any given datacenter is constructed, why would "shit local representation" be a deciding factor in where they're located.

He's a *really* good troll. I think it's natural talent. Some people can sing or shoot lasers from their eyes. Stancil can troll.

Online, it's often super annoying, and I don't think he even knows how to turn it off. But when he uses his troll powers against ICE... let the mutant cook.

If you have no idea how widespread use of multi-ton BEV private cars is affecting air quality relative to bikes, maybe remove one or two of those soap boxes you're lecturing from?

I was adopting the goal post you specifically cited.

In places that already have strict regulation of ICE exhaust, particulates are now the bigger air quality issue. Which comes from all cars. And is worse with heavier vehicles.

It's fine if you don't know. Just weird you'd act like you do.

Could you describe what you meant when you said bad actors are choosing weak jurisdictions?

There must be a meaningful distinction between saying that and pointing out that white supremacist billionaires are targeting poor brown communities. Otherwise you would have fallen victim to the omnicause.

So cite a study that examines the particulate pollution from cars, including BEVs. How much does a 4-ton BEV Rivian contribute to particulate pollution, relative to an e-bike?

"To defeat the AI industry" is a few steps removed, and if anyone tried to quickly drop a datacenter in to a fancy white suburb, the distinction behind the resistance would suddenly become clear.

seems like a pretty good reason to be a pain in the ass about where they go?

In that case, it's kinda weird how they keep ending up in politically disempowered places? The air pollution from the diesel backup generators is probably just a weird coincidence.

If air quality is the most important metric, how are you factoring in the particulate pollution from all cars?

If you'd actually read it, you wouldn't have been pretending confusion about the concept it explains in the first paragraph.

So I'm downgrading you from "loudly confused" to "indistinguishable from a poorly-written chatbot"
