I feel like I had to have heard of this device before, but that article was a fascinating read - thank you!

I think people still think of China as a second tier sometimes, but from what I have seen their technology is likely at least equal to ours, and I would imagine the West and China both surpass each other in different technological categories.

Right? I was like “Faith in the FBI? Someone didn’t watch the Mens Hockey gold medal match…”

I feel like it is entirely plausible to miss something when scanning, I believe it is extremely plausible to miss something when scanning an entire jet aircraft, regardless of the skills of the personnel involved.

But keeping a jet aircraft from another nation is totally ok… got it :)

Right? I was gonna say, there is no way he isn’t keeping is 44k gold plated listening device.

It has the number 1 qualification for being a C-suite employee - no soul!

I don’t know the math or the physics, purely speculation and good faith discussion (sorry if I offended anyone by being tepidly in favor of this option lol).

I don’t disagree with your premise that it will be quite the feat, but I doubt they would be broadcasting the headline unless they thought they had a way to make the math, math.

Honestly not sure about the math, I was just speculating for the sake of discussion, and a belief that this is slightly less harmful to human life than terrestrial solutions.

Don’t they put plutonium reactors in space? Have to be able to cool those somehow? Or maybe they are not difficult to cool… I know I have seen pretty massive heat fin stacks on satellites.

Honestly if they are hyper focused on putting data centers SOMEWHERE this seems like a less bad option… Maybe I’m missing the bigger picture somehow.

I think he did nothing wrong from a western cultural sense, but considering the historical context I can see how he ruffled some feathers (riding in to the rescue much?).

I think the view that he did anything wrong is pretty silly and hyper sensitive, honestly feels like a FoxNews talking point wrapped up in a bow - “Macron faces backlash for bringing order…” write your own headline.

Any chance you have a book recommendation to read more about there system? I would love to hear some of the theoretical stuff!

What is the answer to Russia’s propaganda warfare?

Do we cut them off from the internet? What happens when they launch attacks from other countries…
Do we firewall ourselves in from the rest of the world? Terrible solution on its face for obvious reasons…
Do we educate people better to spot propaganda? How can you educate someone who doesn’t want to learn, and genuinely believes in these things…

What can be done about this? Regime change in Russia? Will Nk just take up the troll job?

It seems like a fight we are destined to lose without an a population that can see through the bullshit, would love to hear some other ideas though.

I think it is AI, who stands like that with all their faces magically in focus, and in view?

Also, the building looks a lot like the Zuckbook building… But it taint at least according to my hunts

this is very helpful info, thank you, didn’t realize this was possible.

I don’t think so… yet… So not as disconcerting tbf, but curious to if it will come out of nowhere at some point, just like this.

I thought my win 11 came bundled with it, although I could be wrong.

As far as difficulty to uninstall and remove thats an android situation, but I feel like that could be the next OS to get this treatment (speculation).

I think the outrage is due to the fact that it is standard on a ton of devices, and not easily uninstalled or removed.

Can you even uninstall chrome on an android phone? I only get the option to disable.

my question is, right now when we have value we have to fight tooth and nail for every spec of capital we get… Once they don’t need us, why would they give us anything? Its a lie to keep us quiet while we lock the doors and turn off the lights.

Yeah but you can target enforcement efforts to entire communities with lots of drugs in their wastewater, offer federal grants / money to police departments to hire special officers for this task (I bet a religious school trains this special kind of officer). Many insidious ways to weaponize our sewage.

fucked up.
