Trump can't even come up with his own bullshit, has to steal Putin's homework.

@rysiek The US hasn't actually declared war on anyone since early 1942. Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Kosovo, Iraq again, Afghanistan, Libya, Venezuela, and this are all considered conflicts or combat actions.
They're limited by the War Powers Resolution of 1973, which I wouldn't be surprised if Trump violated again: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Powers_Resolution

@trebach oh I am not saying this is surprising or new.

Also a reminder that while the Iranian regime is undeniably horrible, it is also the result of CIA and MI6 instigating (in 1953) a coup d'état against the government of Iran that had a democratic mandate, over oil:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad_MosaddeghThe coup made shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi an authoritarian monarch with US backing. His oppressive regime ended with the 1979 Iranian Revolution.

@rysiek Gotta give the British more credit, here. It wasn't merely “over oil”, it was specifically over British Petroleum's completely unfair monopoly in the region… hard to think of a clearer example of The Brits Are At It Again

@rysiek Oil and psychopaths mix too well.

@rysiek As expected, the USA has (so far) failed to visit consequence or prosecution on those involved. The clock is running out, one would hope they get to it.

The same Rob #Jetten, before the elections:
"Today, more than a quarter of a million people drew a red line through Amsterdam. A line against the inhuman violence and genocide in Gaza.
We demand more than words, we demand action. An end to the war, help for people who have been suffering for too long, and a political stance that does not look away, but stands up for humanity."
Nice words.
As you said: people demand action now.

Raises the question. Is there any good way to use AI? Is there a way to invert it and turn it on itself, to use AI to destroy AI, to sabotage any ill it is designed to inflict, to undo or replace its propaganda effect, to use it to release the Epstein files?

@dalias @fesshole that's a myopic way to look at it. Most likely the employer doesn't care enough about you to want to deskill you by exposing you to "cognitoharazds". They're following hype and/or they're misguided. I'd be tempted to say they don't even have a strategy around the use of llms, but that's just speculation. So you're not really sabotaging the company by burning tokens. What you're doing is moral posturing that makes you feel better about yourself because you're the main character in your story and you're sticking it to the man. But that's a pointless exercise that only ends up sabotaging the cause you're supposedly fighting for (capitalism, llm hype, late stage capitalism death cult). By silently complying, and using the tokens you're just bolstering their policy.
