I got replaced by AI after working in law for two decades. I’ve been studying for the bar while also constantly wondering if AI will subsume that work too before I even finish. I feel sick with stress almost constantly due to this. So this is great news.

That horse snuck up on Mr. Hands and did that to him without his consent.

You shouldn’t have to opt-out of any of this, but if you own one and want to keep using it, I thought this would be helpful information.

I ran Wireshark to capture traffic from my LG C5 and the only “scanning” it did was SSDP. Did they post any written article with further information on what it’s doing? Most if not all of what was detailed in the video can be opted out of;

I’ve been using the Feedbro extension for Firefox and quite like it. Some feeds display full or almost full articles directly in the reader;

Should have used The Treaty of Canandaigua as their argument to the administration as to why they couldn’t change the name.

My Apple Watch is within 2% of the reading on the exercise bike and is noted as the most accurate in the study. I’d wager your exercise bike reading is pretty close to your actual calorie burn.

My intention was not to mock the idea. There’s a need for a gig worker electric small cargo vehicle and this fills that niche. Too many people go into gig work factoring in only the cost of fuel and not the vehicle depreciation. With an EV, your primary costs are only electricity and tires. This would be perfect for people doing gig work who actually want to maximize the amount of pay they retain.

The fact that this could potentially have a synergistic effect on the company of a major investor makes it both a good idea and good business.

The A3-001 is from Saab, not Subaru.

It’s in one of the sunniest places in the US too. 6.0 kWh/m²/day of solar irradiance. There’s even already a relatively large solar farm in the same county.

Telo and Canoo really went back to the drawing board and designed trucks around the skateboard design of an EV. No frunk, front seat as far forward as possible, relatively aerodynamic design. Carbros absolutely hated them and derided them to no end but the only real objection was that they looked so much different from the designs they are accustomed to to, that is, designs tailored to the specific problem of accommodating a large engine block. At some point we’re going to have to leave these designs in the past, it’s just a matter of time.

El-Sayed specifically said that he is not a socialist, so I don’t see why he’d fail to see full support for the general election. People confuse opposition to a specific label (a label with a great deal of negative baggage) with opposition to a specific set of policies.

Some of the anti-immigrant sentiments smell strongly of a CHUD larping as a Japanese man.

The first quote you pulled requires the preceding sentence for context.

Despite these assumptions, from 2000 to 2006 organized civilian populations successfully employed nonviolent methods including boycotts, strikes, protests, and organized noncooperation to challenge entrenched power and exact political concessions in Serbia (2000), Madagascar (2002), Georgia (2003) and Ukraine (2004–05), Lebanon (2005), and Nepal (2006). The success of these nonviolent campaigns—especially in light of the enduring violent insurgencies occurring in some of the same countries—begs systematic investigation.

The second quote you pulled merely precedes an explanation of how the authors attempted to address the difficulty of separating violent campaigns from nonviolent campaigns.

In many cases, both nonviolent and violent campaigns exist simultaneously among different competing groups… To address these difficulties, we established some standards of inclusion for each of these categories. The list of nonviolent campaigns was initially gathered from an extensive review of the literature on nonviolent conflict and social movements. Then we corroborated these data using multiple sources, including encyclopedias, case studies, and a comprehensive bibliography on nonviolent civil resistance by April Carter, Howard Clark, and Michael Randle. Finally, the cases were circulated among experts in nonviolent conflict who were asked to assess whether the cases were appropriately characterized as major nonviolent conflicts, and also which notable conflicts had been omitted. Where the experts suggested additional cases, the same corroboration method was used. The resultant data set includes major resistance campaigns that are primarily or entirely nonviolent.

If you attack a party for something well in advance of an election, it loses its effectiveness before election day. People get desensitized to the message and it no longer impacts their decision to vote or who to vote for. If you noticed during the last election, different promises were made at different times. They waited to promise full legalization of cannabis until the last minute for a reason. There are also alignments of promises or points emphasized during primaries based on which state primary or primaries are up next.

In an examination of 323 violent and nonviolent resistance campaigns, between 1900 and 2006, nonviolent campaigns achieve partial or full success at twice the rate of violent campaigns
