  • then they won’t be and people will need to be able to move on

    Wtf are you advocating for here?

    That law enforcement shouldn’t face repercussions if they’re breaking the law (or violating generally accepted human rights)?

    No, ICE agents covering up their face, so they don’t have to face consequences, shouldn’t be able to just move on after the fact.

    Are you allergic to the concept of accountability?

    It’s absolutely bizarre that you are arguing for the humanity of Americans, when that’s not your position. Your argument is for the “humanity” of those within law enforcement wanting no consequences for their actions.

    It’s very naive to think this isn’t troubling for EVERYONE in the US, not just the alleged foreigners (who, in many cases, are completely legally in your country and have done nothing wrong).

    The US is a imperial nation, so I have every right to comment on your politics, as a vassal of the US.

    Bruh, as much as I’d like to see you cry about how the leopards ate your face (when you inevitably face the consequences of this slide into fascism), I’d much rather see the US have some semblance of sanity. Because we’re just standing here with our pants down, entirely at your military’s mercy (Australia).

    It’s about time we diversify our security partners, holy balls.

    Read a book, learn some history, you made be troubled when you do.


  • (hyperbole for emphasis) hey guys, they were normal people like you and I. They’re just supporting their families! - You when talking about the workers at Dachau and Auschwitz

    They were people, but let’s not pretend they were innocent. Shame is a great motivator, and would influence many ICE agents to stop what they’re doing, or at least behave better, I would argue.

    Letting law enforcement conceal their identity is some literal fascist shit - that’s not hyperbole.

    The rest of the world (where I’m from) is looking on with extreme concern.














  • Sure does help, though.

    Any system that ultimately doesn’t work for the greater good is bound to fail, because someone will come along promising to deliver the people from their woes.

    It’s happened very many times throughout history, and yet many “checks” are perpetuated on convention alone, in many systems around the world.

    You’re just asking for it, at that point.

    Letting politicians draw their own electoral boundaries, and “certify” their own elections is beyond ridiculous.

    Git gud, USA, yikes.

  • WHO IS USING AI TO RESPOND TO EMAILS? Like, by the time to “craft” the ultimate response, you could have just written the email.

    This may be my bias as an engineer (not software, but chemical), there’s not really much faffing about in an email. You just politely respond, or politely make a query. It’s not very long, typically, and even if it is, an LLM isn’t gonna help you.

    You don’t have to sugar coat anything unless there’s some fuck up you’re trying to soften. You just go “Hi xyz, could you please clarify when the design temperature is changing here?”.

    Wtf is there you can use an LLM for in an email?

    I have only used it for software troubleshooting, as it’s quite nifty there, even if it’s information is out of date, it gets versions confused, etc, still gets me out of a bind or spits out random ideas to try.

    But emails? Those short form messages, just barely longer than texts?

    Are we actually serious? It’s not a report
