If you got into the country, what’s to stop ICE from picking you up and sending you to a prison in another country?

It’s not AI.

There’s one big tell that I don’t think AI is advanced enough to replicate.

Op took this picture though a window that had multiple panes of glass. So there’s an echo of the image from the secondary reflections between the panes of glass.

I also can’t spot and of the debris in the shot blending into itself. Everything seems to be complete objects.

But that reflection? I’ve never seen AI do anything like that.

In case anyone doesn’t quite see what’s going on here, the image is taken from inside (lights seem to be off from where the camera is), through thermal glass into a concrete window space, which is common for places that have basements so the window can serve as an emergency exit (even if you need to break it to get out)…

Looks like there’s some kind of evergreen tree not far from where the window is, given the debris in the photo.

Great shot OP.

I can see why, it looks AI as hell…

I think it looks nice. AI or not.

I’d have to stare at it for longer than I have to decide if it’s AI. So until I can do that, I’m going to trust the OP until I can verify their claims.

Edit: definitely not AI. Nice shot OP.

Payphones are still a thing. They’re more rare, but they still exist.

This is actually the right move.

Literally find a payphone, pick it up, call 911 and say there’s a group of dangerous looking masked individuals at (name of location), and I’m scared that it’s not safe here.

Then immediately drop the phone and walk away. It seems rude but if you hang up or stop responding the correct action on the 911 operators side is to expect the worst and literally send everyone to that location, lights and sirens.

None of these answers are wrong.

Pretty sure we had CRTs in highschool, back when I was a teen many years ago that were Kia brand… IIRC.

Crazy, right?

Oh damn.

Manufacturing of any kind always causes an environmental impact. This is the way of things.

The one thing we can’t get that would mitigate the environmental costs of making stuff, is if stuff was built to last…

Honda built a rocket

Me: of course they did.

They launched the rocket

Me: naturally.

They landed the rocket.

Me: on the first try?

I disagree.

1. You already have a government space agency. Maybe give them more funding so they don’t have to rely on space-x to get their stuff into orbit?

2. There’s a national telecom network already in place. It at least has the potential to be faster and more reliable, if it isn’t already… At least compared to low earth orbit satellite coverage.

There’s no good reason to continue providing Elon or his companies with any government handouts. Pull that funding and give it to… I dunno, students who have more debt than homeowners with a mortgage… NASA… Literally anything that helps people?

Neither of those keys exist.

Probably because I keep uninstalling the software.

Heh, it’s a small business and bossman isn’t exactly anti-AI.

I think GDPR and related laws, really tempered what Microsoft did to the whole of the European region. They didn’t want to deal with it, so they made as much as they could, opt-in. As opposed to the north american policies of either opt-out, or forced-on.

IDK. I don’t work at Microsoft, I’m just guessing. 🙃

For those curious, if you can get a European Windows product key, you can install the “N” version of Windows. Be warned, it only works with certain product keys…

The standard Windows installer should give the option of “Windows 10” or “Windows 10 N” (or similar). The N version is basically bloatware free out of the box…

The regular version has a bunch of promos pre-installed, like candy crush, and other things that most people couldn’t give a shit about…

Recently I’ve been playing a “fun” game with my work laptop where I’ll remove copilot, and a few days later it will appear again. Weeee. In that case, it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s a policy in place to enable copilot on my works systems… I’m sure someone who works here, probably higher up the food chain than me, wants it enabled, and the ham fisted policy maker can’t create a policy just for those who want it, so everyone gets it because the bosses son Shane decided that he wants to see how much of his work can get done by AI so he can do even less while on the clock.

I get it, you’re an optimist about it.

Nothing wrong with that. I try to take a more practical/grounded view.

In my experience, most people actively avoid thinking. If it involves any measure of mental effort, they would just rather not.

I see it every day.

I’ll say this: a lot of people using AI, are not thinking or making decisions.

I’m not sure who they were trying to fool? Bluntly, if you’re keeping your passwords in a local repo using strong encryption via something like keepass, you’re generally not the kind of person to see “KeePassXE Pro ultra mega best edition” and blindly download it without vetting the source…

Does it really matter? It’s a shit looking vehicle that can’t drive in the rain if you don’t switch to carwash? Mode? I think?

The vehicle has so many design oddities, so many manufacturing problems, and it’s associated to one of the least liked billionaires in recent memory, so much so that people in the general public go out of their way to vandalize the vehicle whenever the opportunity presents itself.

What’s to like about it? Even if you don’t hate Elon, and don’t hate the look/design, the"truck" is a meme at best and a gigantic waste of resources.
