These National Guard may not be villains (yet) but they certainly aren’t ‘heroes’ like members of the military like to be portrayed. They absolutely could stand on principal and refuse deployment. They would face a court martial but heroes do what is right regardless of the potential consequences.

I was going to reply something about how he isn’t relevant because he has been dead for like a decade but I googled him to get the exact date correct first and I was shocked to find out he is still alive.

That picture accompanying the article is backwards. Why is it portraying the AI as the babysitter and not the baby that needs to be supervised by a human?

Where are all the soldiers and assorted politicians who swore an oath to protect the USA from all threat foreign and domestic?

I think the unwritten rule is they aren’t touched and they are there when people come back through. I didn’t ditch mine, so I can’t say for sure.

It might not be currently illegal but I think there should be a law defining “crimes against society” that only applies to corporations and politicians. It could be vague like “disorderly conduct” but just for corpos and politicians and would include things like lying to the public and could have punishments like corpos losing their business license (death) and banishment to the moon/sun for politicians.

I understand it would be totally easy to triangulate if it were a single jammer, but would it be possible to triangulate a mesh of maybe half a dozen jammers. It seems like a headache to try to triangulate that because your signal strength would be all over the place.

Nah, they are playing that game where they all jerk off onto a cookie and the last one to cum has to eat it.

Looks like you are not pregnant with twins.

I have a CD player in my 2004 car and I burn CDs regularly.
