Besides that how is China going to impose it? The airline industry for example requires pilots and ATC operators to speak and understand English around the world. You think American ATCs are going to learn Chinese or is America going to flex it's influence to keep it English?
And the main reason for this (which is also why Chinese is inadequate for business) is due to the fact that Chinese, like many Asian languages is hierarchical in nature and leads to dumb shit happening like easily avoidable plane crashes.
 
trump destroyed that issue by appointing ACB and then SCOTUS killed the issue
Republican Presidents appoints Republican judge, yeah that's really shaking up the system

Overturning Roe was a GOP fantasy for 30 years, Trump appointed the justices but the same thing would've happened if it was fucking Jeb in the White House

I also don't think the Dobbs decision was necessarily even a part of Trump's agenda. He'll pander the base about the evil wokes killing babies or whatever but even he's smart enough to know it would hurt them in the midterms
 
The key step that everyone forgets is, 99% of the time, the "Data" imported is full of garbage that a human has to weed out first. If some sort of AI automation were to do this, a large swath of corporate america would have to reckon with the fact that their 1/4 million dollar data systems are mostly filled with garbage input done by garbage humans to begin with.
The problem with "AI" (it is not an AI, it is a very complex chatbot) is it doesn't grasp context and training it to understand context is really hard without giving it a huge environment to play in. Even with all the racist shit aside, Tay was probably the closest humans ever got to doing this, but its creators were too pozzed to learn anything from that experiment.
The problem here is that you guys are holding AI to the standard you THINK represents humanity.

It took me a long time to adjust my expectations and stop projecting myself onto npc’s. You just basically assume that everyone you interact with functions roughly about as well as you function, and can troubleshoot things and make them work.

I promise, you go to the DMV and there’s one person there capable of assisting when you have something unusual. For me, it was that I moved to another state and moved back later. Instead of reactivating my old license number, they made a new entry that conflicted with my deactivated one. It took weeks to get in touch with the one person in the DMV who could process theoretical frameworks to even formulate a guess at what could cause the problem they were having

Meanwhile I kept getting threatening letters about my license being suspended
 
Man, protesters used to have balls. These are some seriously weak displays of "defiance." These cops are in plainclothes and clearly unimpressed with the dipshits shouting "pig" at them.

May they all (the protesters that is) pass away from uncomfortable sexually transmitted infections. They don't deserve any kind of "martyrdom."
I don't get why don't they bumrush the dude being arrested tbh. 20 cops to 30~ protestors?

AI can't answer any question whose answer can't be Googled, found in a journal archive, etc. It's a machine at the end of the day, no fundamentally different than the water-wheel-powered looms the Luddites chopped up. If your job is hand-sorting and categorizing images, sure, it will be eliminated by AI.
 
In fact, there’s no real evidence that sound causes permanent hearing loss or tinnitus at all other than correlations
This is 100% true and everybody should shoot a gun next to their face to prove that the science of decibels (I didn't know they measured sound with 10 bells!) and "eardrums" (how can ears have drums? That's retarded jewish doctor make believe) is fake and gay.

Only YOU can prevent tinnitus by not being a pussy ass bitch.
 
All three are more likely to occur when I drink caffeine or when I lack sleep.
I've noticed the same. Lack of sleep can cause my tinnitus to become almost unbearable. Elevated blood pressure is also a big one that I've picked up on over the years although it's not as consistent as the lack of sleep.
 
missing the point entirely


jeb wouldnt have won and he wouldnt have appointed ACB
Jeb would have made sure to choose nominees that the left wouldn't absolutely chimp out over. They would come pre-selected by DC insiders to make sure they'd get that begrudging, "conservative troglodyte...but a principled jurist nonetheless" endorsement that John Roberts got.
 
Trump ran on being pro life (in 2016), what the utter fuck are you talking about?
he has at various times said he's pro-life, he's pro-choice, and believes it should be left up to the states. it's similar to gun control, he hums and haws on the issue. says give rednecks the guns, then signs the most restrictive gun legislature since clinton

missing the point entirely

I don't know man, Clinton was very unpopular, and a lot of people voted for her purely out of hatred for Trump. He might've followed in his brother's footsteps and gotten an EC victory.

As to whether he'd have nominated ACB or not, she wasn't particularly objectionable to Republicans. Hell she's actually better than some non-Trump appointees.
 
Where did the stereotype of Canadians being nice even come from? In college we went to my friend's cabin for Spring Break one year in an area flooded with Canadian tourists and they were the most snotty, rude, and unpleasant people I've ever met.
This is why I feel zero sympathy for Canadians. These faggots mock and loath Americans just like every other Eurocuck Trash. They all think they're better and smarter than us when in reality their functioning brainwaves died off years ago. They're over-socialized fuckwits who would rather say objectively wrong things than be ever offensive.

I voted for someone who wasn't entropy incarnate. I do not regret that decision. I do regret that people like you continue to persist in your disgusting, arrogant ignorance of reality, logic, and realpolitik.
Piss off, faggot. The reality is you're never getting the world you asked for. You can't ask for the perfect world. All you can ask for is a new one. That's what you voted for. These faggots liberals spent nearly 50 years destroying this world and it's going to take more than 90 days of Trump to undo it. You don't do this because you expect results immediately. You do this in the hope that someday your grandchildren won't have to dig their way out of this garbage like you did.

don't be a retard, he wouldn't give 2 shits because Republicans had the Senate.

Ah yes, such famous liberal leaders as Nixon, Reagan and both Bushes. Fuck off you spastic trout.
 
All trump had to do was not fucking joke around about invading canada and starting trade wars with them because those are actually really insane statements to make, and all it does it give the previously massively unpopular Canadian libs a victory from the jaws of defeat.

The audacity of the forever-trumpers to blame the leafs for actually reacting negatively for that, same story about tariffs, it says a lot about their mentality that everyone else is supposed to be a subservient bitch to MAGA forever and anyone else being repulsed by it is simply "being a cuck".

I have a feeling some of you don't actually live in reality, look at what happens when MAGA collides with it.
Canada let it's hatred of being America's top hat get in the way of good governance, but don't pretend your wishy washy conservative party had been successfully purged to the point where it wouldn't do the exact same thing the other party would just slower.

Leafs deserve the rake. Annex posting will continue until morale improves.

I don’t think Trump intends to take all of Canada, I think he wants Alberta and the conservative portions of the country. At this point I expect Canada to become nothing more than a rump state.
