I'd be willing to bet that only media pundits like them are still concerned about Biden's age/health. The SOTUS and it's rulings is what we're concerned about, now.

I wonder if that guy realizes how much he sounds like the kind of things Mao Zedong and Hitler used to say about artists?

After the Supreme Court's "immunity" ruling, Biden's age is the absolute least of my worries.

The more I think about it, the crazier the SCOTUS ruling gets: Biden can now ignore the Supreme Court! Their recent gutting of regulations? Biden can order them meaningless. Hello health care reform, Reproductive Freedom, Student Debt Relief, Gun Safety or whatever! And the Supreme Court did it!

Regardless of how you feel about Mark Hammill, do you agree that we need to turn out in massive numbers to vote against not just Don the con, but also against every Republican enabler?

On the plus side, their ruling means that Biden *can* order Donny's arrest, and have him shipped to Guantanamo or whatever...

They say this, but they don't want you asking if their system is so "smart" why do they still have to rely on thousands of humans tagging the data they "train" it on?

That's the part about moving I like the most, when everything has potential, and you haven't pulled too many muscles trying to move stuff, yet.

You never know what impact your words may have over time, though. I can personally count several people who used to disagree with me about various issues years ago, who now repeat the exact phases I used to argue with them. Just because it doesn't change anything now doesn't mean it won't ever.

I'm continually amazed at how Thomas and the other newer "conservative" justices somehow make Scalia look better. Unbelievable.

Deplatforming is out of favor in Silicon Valley. But it works.

I have quit using Adobe products for that very reason, and I have been using them since the late 1990's. I work in the printing industry, who's yoked themselves so closely to Adobe they'll probably never been able to leave, alas.

You're absolutely correct. They are ALL using cheap labor in places like India and Africa to do the tagging/labeling of the data for "training" their software. It's very exploitative, and they are heavily misrepresenting what their "AI" can actually do.
