So does that mean that NATO can also start deploying troops there? I mean, so far we’ve kept out to not escalate this, but if actual foreign troops will set foot on that front line, you can only wait so long for the other side to do the same…

Few will desert as their families back home will pay the price for that.

Yeah, but that was over 20 years ago

Yeah… The main thing I see here is that China (read; government , not the people, not being racist here) will take this code, they will make improvements on it, they will NOT give back. Basically like Microsoft, but now an entire country.

Chinese government hasn’t exact had a good reputation when it comes to taking technology and not giving anything back

Why?

Do you really really have to ask why? :)

UH OH!

With ICQ I learned the social skills that I couldn’t on the real world because I had been bullied to near death. I talked to random people all over the world, learned that I could talk to girls without having to feel like shit.

Used it so much, and with volume up, my upstairs neighbor thought I was watching the teletubbies all the time because of the UH OH!

Met my first girlfriend this way, she was in Mexico, I was in Europe. Moved to Mexico to marry her (bad idea, she was rather manipulativr and a huge cheater as it turned out, got divorced) and lived in Mexico for samn near 20 years.

To say that ICQ had a big positive influence in my life is an understatement, it changed my life beyond anything I’ve ever had before.

Thank you.

Yeah, though the Chinese government isn’t doing this out of the goodness of their heart, this is what open source is about.

training they do have is focussed on the things that will kill you quickly

I think i know what you’re trying to say but it sounds really really bad

But the “stabilize and transport asap but keep stable” is pretty much the goal for all ambulances world wide.

Nobody was asking for your tinfoil god fearing conspiracies

Install Linux already, just get it over with.

A 35 mph crash would make the inside of that cyber truck do https://youtu.be/waG8YYTwpAQ?si=ncyl2l4IiP7GDLuk

Even a simple 10 mph “crash” without crumple zone would be painful to say the least

PhD level of intelligence

No it won’t. At some point, some AI will, but that point is still far away.

I’m sure it’ll know how to string words and sentences together real nice, even to the point where it makes sense. It will still not have a clue what it’s talking about, it’ll still not understand basic concepts as “understanding” requires a whole lot more than just an advanced ability of pushing words together.

I’m sorry but just wondering here… Why would you need to phone home up to the point where you can’t be without a phone? I didn’t have phones in my school, never needed them either. A lot of people are acting as if not having phones will kill them where in reality, everyone will be just fine.

Why would even that be necessary? It’s school, not jail or drug den…

Kids survived fine without phones for millenia, I’m sure they can survive now. If there is a real emergency, then I’m sure some supervisor can make a call…

I literally didn’t quote anyone

Yeah your arguments so far have been yelling that it sucks.

You mean to say that some random company sells bullshit gummies?

Maybe buy them from regulated companies instead?

Yeah you are a right wing type.

War on guns and muh rights and tyranny, it’s all right wing talking points.

No-one is “waging a war against guns”, it’s a bullshit argument, just like “guns are needed against tyranny”

What people want is sane gun laws, so that -for example- crazies that want to shoot up schools and such, can’t get their hands on them. I’ll assume you disagree there and you enjoy school shootings and would want to arm teachers because nothing is better than a gun fight in a school hallway, right?

You’ve never noticed that the gun violence as it is is a uniquely US problem? Doesn’t happen anywhere else in the world at that insane level. Yeah, each country once in a decade or damn near century might experience a mass shooting, the US experiences those at about once a day. The US is also unique in its gun laws that they want as many guns for people as possible. It totally has nothing to do with gun makers having politicians int heir pockets, mixed with people like you who are Brainwashed into actually believing you need guns to protect against the US armed forces

I’m literally laughing while writing this, because you peope actually believe that a) you’d stand a chance to survive even a minute, and b) you’d actually fight tyranny. Trump literally is claiming multiple times he’ll install himself as a dictator, and his gun loving followers not only love him for it, they just go in and claim democracy is bad.

All US gun laws have done is cause suffering and death, and yes, guns and ammo should be heavily restricted. That would make your country liveable instead of it being the hell hole it currently is.

Just out of curiosity, what do you think capitalism is?

Science isn’t “deeply flawed”, sorry, that’s nonsense. Are there some players here and there that try and abuse the system, of course. These players are then rooted out and exposed, that’s how it works. If someone tries to hurry research, someone else will discover it.

This entire “capitalism is the root of all evil” is nonsense too. At its core, it’s the freedom to trade directly with one another and there is nothing wrong with it. Strong rules need to be in place to control that process ans the lack of that is what causes do many issues, especially in the US.

Just writing on your mobile phone, claiming science is deeply flawed, is just facepalmingly stupid.
