These things go into the American memory hole faster and faster every year.

I love seeing the headlines about Hurricane Milton being "not as bad as expected." It was just a mild climate change-fueled nightmarish natural disaster where millions of people were displaced and thousands of people, some already impoverished, lost possessions and lives. Don't think about it, Americans. It definitely couldn't happen to you. Enjoy your slop.

What I am saying, explicitly, is that willem-van-spronsen would make a better congresswoman than AyyyyyOC-big

American healthcare may be shitty, and it may be too expensive, but at least

It is something that sounds impressive. If it worked it would probably be impressive. But I get the sense that a lot of people, just like with AI, really believe that this is a technology that is already working. Seriously, where is the money going if it's not working? IBM(the holocaust punch card people) are heavily invested in QC and receiving government grants for it.

Quantum computing is pretty much vaporware at this point, right? Kamala says we need to keep up our investments in QC and AI to beat China, but as far as I know, QC has some serious fundamental barriers that we are not able to overcome right now, which prevents the technology from even being used for the things people want it to be used for. So what are we competing for?

I was reading IBM's roadmap for QC development and it could honestly be the RDI Star Citizen promises with how out of sight and reliant they are on the technology improving at an unrealistic pace.

Maybe I'm cynical and have an outside perspective but quantum computing is starting to look like one of those dead ends that everyone looks back on and feels a little embarrassed by the whole thing.

TYT brain is infectious and I hope a vaccine is invented one day.

2011 was a lifetime ago. If we were to be generous.

CW: Electoralism from a Bernie burnout:

Is Dr. Cornel West a grifter?

People keep saying it but I am unsure what they are referring to. Hell, I would be more likely to believe the grifter narrative if Dr. Cornel West had stayed a Green, which is like the premier grifter party in the US, as far as I can tell. See, I was planning to xi-vote for Dr. West to maintain my protest candidate streak as punishment to the people who tell me to vote every year to change the Reaper drone operators. Dr. West seems like the most well-known person whose views align closely enough to mine. I would not want to vote for Dr. West if it was all a scam. And would likely vote PSL again. I was disappointed Leonard Peltier had to drop out last time for completely understandable reasons but was still proud to have supported that ticket. Which is the only thing my vote really matters for, that I can live with myself at the end of the day as I've only ever lived in red states.
