At the risk of feeding a troll.
My argument is basically the ‘china/russia were never real communism’ one but with the caveat that real communism isn’t possible in the first place with real human beings because its so easy for a bad actor to hijack the entire thing and thus that will inevitably happen almost immediately. Any real communist is probably naive, deluded or excessively optimistic.

Tankies are just the same kind of bad actor who are the reason such a system is impossible in the first place and promote communism simply as way to seize ever more power. Its a very pedantic point of view but I’m sick of the right wing changing the definition of words.

Nah communism is just naive people trying to enact collectivist policies wholesale not realising or not wanting to believe that such policies are incredibly open to subversion by authoritarian groups.

There are specialized LLMs that (if the document is digitized) will actually cite their references within the data they’ve been given and provide direct links. It’d still need proof reading as someone would have to check those citations but it would still speed up the process immensley.

I mean part of why they did better was by using the ride sharing aspect to side step the laws that regulate regular taxis. Sort of like how AirBnB sidestepped rental and subdivision laws using the home sharing aspect… Actually the main competative advantage of all of these recent side hustle businesses is just crime.

Nah the UK has it too, its technically possible to win a majority with about 1/9th of the vote. It also tends to result in the right wing recieving an inflated share of the effective vote.

Aren’t local ISPs essentially banned in a lot of places due to lobbying from the big players? Less abandoned and more actively stomping on its throat.

Also those headsets are 500 a piece. Most people can’t afford to drop the cost of a mid range PC on a peripheral.

Lets not forget the debacle where a third party company designed a cheap and permament fix for the ice cream machines and mcdonalds responded by comiting libel against that company. The company that makes the ice cream machine then outright stole their IP (found to have outright copy pasted code with comments and all) and briefly sold it as their own fix before I belive discontinuing it.

Kind of like the ice cream machine fix version of ‘embrace, extend, extinguish’ but with all the finesse of beating someone up in an alley.

Especially given humans have real standout traits like being endurance hunters, somewhat rapid scarring and a high resistance to shock (advantage on constitution checks?)
