  • What is the GOP going to do about the record amount of retirements and empty seats if they cancel the elections?

    They need the elections as much as the Dems. It's a matter of how free the elections will be. They will happen, but will they be predetermined like in Russia, or will they be the US standard level of BS?

  • I'm real tired of hearing this line at this point. States run the elections, and even if he were able to get past that, republicans are on the same ballot and are also retiring in huge numbers. They need the elections to happen, they're going to happen.

    Now, you could argue that the elections won't be free elections, and that would make more sense. Even shitholes like Russia have ""elections"", but of course the result is predetermined. Nonetheless, Russia has ""elections"". That's not even getting into how the US has never cancelled an election, not even in the civil war.

    Saying he's trying to cancel the election just makes people who are considering to vote to change something for once less likely to do so, because why would they if they're going to be cancelled anyway. You shouldn't do the job of voter suppression for the GOP.

  • cm0002 classic

  • I'm a liar how? I said that people should be using the ballot boxes anyway, and you said "watch them seize those too" even though it's much easier for them to seize the mail since it goes through a federal agency, thus why I said they should bypass the federal order by using systematic and efficient placement of dropboxes. Because guess what, the order only applies to the mail. It doesn't apply to the ballot boxes. I'm not sure what your real argument is at this point.

  • These data centers are NOT being used for research. Universities and research companies generally have their own computer clusters for that.

    These are being designed and built for LLMs and LLMs only.

    Plus, the US has already lost. We've cut off our allies, destroyed our trade partnerships, made the economy unsustainable, and also caused the very brain drain you mention here. We're cooked for decades at the least.

  • That's a bubble, quite literally. Collapsing into other companies. Do you think when people say bubble they mean that all companies related to LLMs will go under forever?

  • Their comment literally mentions Google and Facebook as the survivors, so I'm not sure what good it does to include them in your argument.

  • Didn't Mike Lee want an appointment and that's one of the reasons he sucks Trump's mushroom cock?

  • Then, according to you, this order wouldn't affect anything?

  • Typically, tech companies get around warn through garden leave, meaning you're employed and paid for 60 days but not able to actually work. Then, at the end of 60 days, warn is posted and severance is distributed. Is that what you're referring to?

  • I didn't say it wouldn't, I said that it doesn't apply to this instance. People should have been using the ballot drop boxes all along anyway.

  • Seize them out of the sealed ballot boxes? I mean, maybe, but that's not what is being referred to here - most states with mail in ballots also have drop boxes that do not require mail.

  • The USPS can be bypassed through strategic and frequent placement of ballot dropboxes. I already didn't use the postal service after the bullshit Trump tried to pull in 2020. It's better to use the dropboxes in every way except for one, and in my case it's only a block to get to the dropbox so it doesn't even apply.

  • Oh yeah, I didn't mean to imply that it was good.. but states could just have drop boxes instead and not give that info at all.

  • Be careful not to introduce security vulnerabilities such as command injection, XSS, SQL injection, and other OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities. If you notice that you wrote insecure code, immediately fix it.

    Lmao. I'm sure that will solve the problem of it writing insecure slop code.

  • The ballot drop boxes are not affected and can be used instead.

  • What if you don't want to fly to Florida at all?

  • Maybe, but I don't think "tens of thousands" would be blocked from voting through ICE simply being at the polling locations. Maybe that would be possible through spreading fear that they might be there, that sure sounds a lot like what's happening with this post.

  • That's not even counting states that have mail in voting with dropboxes. Yes, they're trying to restrict mail in voting but it all seems like it's around postmark dates which do not apply to drop boxes (the drop boxes have the same deadline as voting in person). Good luck putting an agent at every dropbox in the country, it's just not going to happen.
