  Biden running in 2024 🤣

  i've filed this under news and world events, although i could've posted it under entertainment, lol.

  apparently, joe biden will be seeking re-election for another term in the white house.. this, despite a recent poll showing that 70% of people don't want him to run again.. biden just has to be the worst president i've seen.

  his gaffes, over-relience on a prompter, and, more than any other president, his refusal to answer journalists' questions, all go to make him top of the list in terms of bad presidents.. it will certainly provide entertainment, if nothing else..

  "Again with the hyperbole, I would like to see all the accounts where D&C were truly denied, because no abortion law is banning any of that."

  What hyperbole are you drooling about?

  geoffrey hinton, major inventor of artificial intelligence: .

  “if you take the existential risk seriously, as i now do—i used to think it was way off, but now i think it’s serious, and fairly close—it might be quite sensible to just stop developing these things any further, but i think it’s completely naïve to think that would happen.

  there’s no way to make that happen.

  "As Cofty said...unplug things seems to be the easy answer."
  
  Who decides when things get unplugged? I often think the internet as a whole has been a net negative for society and I believe a lot of others would sometimes agree. I still use it everyday.

  You sure have a lot of strong opinions about a country you don't live in. Not arguing, just commenting that I find it a bit odd. Are you Simon's lovechild?

  "As I understand it the worry is over the potential for misinformation. Imagine a future where anyone with a bad motive can easily utilise AI to produce the narrative and results they want."

  
  The part that worries me is that a lot of the population feeds, clothes and houses themselves working what are basically bullshit jobs. Busy work. Low level office management, tech support, customer service etc etc. If AI has the near term potential that some describe, I can see vast numbers of these jobs eliminated. And in the U.S at least, we don't have (and many don't believe in providing) much of a social safety net. It would not be the first time technology has eliminated jobs, but i'm worried it might be so many all at once that it could be pretty nasty in the short to medium term.

  "Each individual state decides whether to have abortions or not. This means that women who want an abortion in, say, Texas, can travel to a state that does kill unborn babies."
  
  For now. Until states like Texas work out the legal means to prosecute women who go out of state for an abortion. But even if they can't find any way to make that stick, Texas alone is enormous, it's nearly 3X the size of Great Britain and most of the surrounding states have also banned it. Traveling from say, Dallas, to a state where it is allowed is not a quick drive across the county line. More like halfway across a continent.
  
  These logistical hurdles mean it will be lower income women who are most put in a bind. Middle class and higher will just take a few paid sick days, catch a flight and keep it hush-hush. "Ok for me, but not for thee"

  "then don't get too cocky because it's not over yet, not by a long shot."

  Oh I know. i'm 100% certain that in the next 50-70 years someone in my life will die of a stroke, heart attack, cancer, Alzheimers,liver failure, chronic respiratory disease,blood clot,diabetes or infection. In fact, i would bet that nearly every human being I have ever met will eventually succumb to one of those maladies, barring the unlucky few who die young in random accidents. And no doubt, your ilk will still be chalking it up to vaccines.

  " and they murdered my sister with it ( along with countless others ) and it has stolen the health of her still living husband ( along with countless others )"
  
  I imagine if a vaccinated person is ever constipated at any time in the future, you'll blame it on the Covid vaccine....
