The problem is the majority of the legislative and the head of the executive decided to collude to just ignore the constitution and then proceeded to stuff the judicial branch with their puppets. The problem with the checks and balances is they don't have an answer to "but what if 2/3rds of the government decides to wipe their ass with the constitution at the same time?".

No amount of reorganizing the deck chairs changes that calculus. The system was broken the moment they just decided not to remove Trump from office during his first impeachment. The only way I can see to do anything about that flaw is to just make it ridiculously easy to impeach any politician, say something like a general vote of the public that only requires a 25% margin to pass. Sure the Republicans absolutely would have used something like that against Obama, but at least we'd be able to clean all the corrupt bastards out of congress and the supreme court as well.

I'd argue the 9060 and 9070 are less AMD not screwing up and more Nvidia setting records for screwing up. The 5060 and 5070 are wastes of silicon that are out competed by Nvidias own hardware nevermind AMDs offerings. The 9060 and 9070 are not bad GPUs, but they're not really good either.

If Intel can close the performance gap with AMD while also maintaining their price points we might see some genuinely good GPUs as AMD is forced to compete with someone (Nvidia isn't really a competitor, AMD isn't even attempting to compete at the high end, and Nvidia refuses to compete at the low end). My only fear in this scenario is that AMD does the same thing they did previously when they struggled to compete with Nvidia and just exits the GPU market entirely.

It would be truly ironic if we ended up in a situation where AMD is the dominant CPU manufacturer, Intel dominates the budget GPU market, and Nvidia dominates the market for people with more money than sense.

Don't forget medical expenses as well. The cost of living in the US has been on the rise for decades while wages have remained flat. The simple reality is while the US economy has continued to improve, only the rich have benefited from that and it's approaching the point where the majority of the US population literally can not afford to live in the US. The oligarchs are going to be forced to share that wealth or the entire US economy will collapse and they won't like what happens when a large, angry, and very well armed population decides they're tired of living off the crumbs that fall off the plates of an incredibly tiny group of the ultra wealthy.

Isn't it an international human rights violation to make somebody stateless? For that matter is there literally any legal mechanism in the US to strip citizenship from someone once it has been granted?

I read the headline and was prepared to support the church on this one (for once). Then I read the first paragraph of the article. I have never made a 180 on an opinion so fast. The fuck is wrong with the Catholic church and child abuse? Why is this a constant problem with them?

Man they are still caught up on that fake story somebody sent to one of these morons claiming kids were using litter boxes in school. It never happened but they're going to try to legislate it away anyway.

The lesson here is don't troll these idiots, they'll fucking believe it and then start passing idiotic laws for non-problems.

So 1/3rd of Americans don't understand how economies work or what a tariff is.

Bernie once again demonstrating that he's the only adult in a room full of children. It's got to be frustrating as hell to be surrounded by these morons constantly.

This next election is going to be an absolute shitshow. I guarantee they'll refuse to certify the election, and they'll try to hijack the electoral college (again).

I have so many questions, none of which are answered by the article. Was the flavor really picked by an AI? If so, how did they train the AI? What kind of AI was this? What other flavors did it come up with? Did they try a bunch of them and this was the best one they could get?

This whole thing just screams marketing stunt to me, and not a particularly good one. I can't wait for this whole AI thing to just die out already. How is it that every tech fad seems to somehow end up being even dumber than the previous one (although I think the whole NFT thing might have set a new low bar)?

Please stop posting this kind of garbage to the technology community, this belongs in a creative writing community more than it does this one. There is absolutely no technological basis for literally any of this. You just sent ChatGPT on a prolonged hallucination session and it's as relevant to this community as the plot of Terminator is.

I'm really getting sick and tired of all the unhinged "AI" posts constantly showing up by people that either have no clue at all how something like ChatGPT functions, or worse know exactly how it functions and are just generating clickbait for views.

ChatGPT is not a general purpose AI and it will never do anything other than creative writing. It can not tell you any truth that doesn't already exist in some form on the internet, and if you think it has either it or you are hallucinating (I.E. it's bullshit). AI are not coming for everybody's jobs in a general sense, although a bunch of moronic CEOs are eating garbage like this post up and salivating at the idea of firing their entire workforce and replacing them with AI controlled drones (hint, like most technology you can only replace many cheap workers with a fewer much more expensive workers who need to maintain the very expensive technology).

If your job involves physically doing something and it hasn't been replaced by automation yet then that's because it's cheaper to pay you to do it than it would be to program and maintain robots to do it, any "AI" isn't going to change that calculus.

If your job involves creating something then you're probably still OK even if "AI" is introduced, you'll just become responsible for fixing the half broken output of the "AI".

The only people that need to be worried about being replaced by something like ChatGPT are people doing low skill high turnover jobs where volume counts a lot more than accuracy like call centers.
