Don't let your politicians have a say in military matters. Likewise, don't let your military run the country. There is a good reason why they have two different job descriptions.
If you want to know what happens when the military runs the country, look at all the hellholes that are run by a military junta. If you want to see what a war run by politicians looks like, look at any war the US fought since WW2.
Hey, at least the boat is staying afloat, I bet that wasn't specified either. They are already fulfilling more than the contract demand and still the customer ain't satisfied.
They didn't since 1870. That's why there's that old joke (told around the 1950s) where three veterans, a young one, an old one and an ancient one sit together.
V1: I fought in WW2 and got the Iron Cross second class. V2: I fought in WW1 and got the Iron Cross first class. V3: I fought in the war of 1870/71, didn't get a medal, but at least we won.
A "real" AI would be the ultimate psychopath: Intelligence without any kind of conscience. Pretty much like a corporation, just way more efficient.
Fortunately what we're building is far from anything resembling intelligence. I.e. the ability to use prior experience in totally new situations, evaluate those situations and draw conclusions that can be applied to react properly to it. And I mean totally new.
The point here is that it's not possible (yet, maybe forever) to create an AI that can make such abstractions and apply old knowledge to new situations.
There is nothing wrong with learning responsibility and doing a little hard work when you are young so long as it doesn't interfere with education.
This is the crucial part here. Because the idea is that you don't really need that much of an education if you're only supposed to be working menial jobs. And when you're poor and can't afford education, why would you want to better yourself anyway, go work, serf!
You know, when you replace "conservative" in your postings with "women" (or "black people" or some other minority du jour), you'd come across like a SJW...
What you present here is how people "feel" about conservatives. I don't give a shit about how people feel about anyone. What I care about is how they treat people.
Why should network bother paying for high profile shows with good production values when they can get more net profit out of scripted reality shows that cost less than a board dinner? Yes, you could get better ratings for the expensive shows, but the difference in ratings is so small that you still net more money with slightly lower ad revenue but considerably lower programming cost.
A few months ago, the head of a big German TV network called his core target audience "a little fat, a little poor" in a telco with shareholders and got fire... I mean, it was suggested to him to reorient himself employment-wise. Even though it's true. Everyone who does give a shit what's on TV did already dump "old school" TV networks in favor or Netflix, Amazon and whatever other streaming services exist. What's left as the viewers of classic TV networks is those that are too lazy or too poor to pull the plug and watch those shows they want to see when they want to see them.
XP is worse for one single key reason: That there ARE known security risks that will NEVER get patched. Can this be mitigated? Yes. But it also HAS to be mitigated.
I work in a "must work no matter what" environment as well. We also suffer from XP machines we don't dare to touch because... reasons. We did manage to get them secured by shielding those parts of them that are endangered by machines we put between them and potential attackers.
It is possible. It's pretty ugly and of course not the best solution from a security perspective, but it can be done in a way that lets your CISO sleep at night.
Truth? What truth is there in a dud bombshell with huge tits? Is that what you want your kids to learn, it doesn't matter what's between your ears or whether you know how to use it, what matters is that you know how to use what's between your legs?
This is what we base our society on. What do you get out of the media these days? Fear, hate, tits and the weather report.
Hmm... let's see, what do we have on TV? Horror stories about war and strife, domestic and abroad, in the news. Various lowlifes yelling at each other in afternoon talkshows. "Celebrities" that have bigger boobs than brains, and whose only reason for their celebrity status is those built-in airbags and the airheads on top of them. Shows where we worship people for being able to pull off weird stunts or entertain us in some other way. And sitcoms that celebrate idiocy, a hedonistic lifestyle and unemployment, with what used to be called "successful people" being the butt of the jokes.
Dude, learn 2 things: First, how to make links and second, how to find free versions of paywalled articles. Even if people would copy/paste your URLs, they sure as fuck won't pay someone just to see whether your articles have any merit.
What I get out of your post is 4 abstracts that may or may not belong to articles that are good, one dead link, an article showing how white people get discriminated (I wasn't aware that white=conservative now), an article that gets its results from the trolley problem with people more willing to kill the hypothetical white guys than the black guy (showing off virtue signaling more than anything else, like, say the "kill the white man" narrative of the article), an article telling me that more college teachers are liberals than conservatives without giving any reasons (and which makes it really easy to spin something like "only liberals are smart enough to teach at colleges, conservatives are too dumb to teach anywhere but at bible colleges").
I'm pretty sure I missed one or two URLs in the process, but that's what you get when you don't FUCKING MAKE LINKS! And that's embarrassing twice, first, because this is fuckin'/. and second... well, with a username like yours, one would assume you have a clue about how the internet works.
You don't know London, I get it. You don't care about the traffic conditions right now. You care about the traffic conditions in 5 minutes. And believe me, there can be a HUGE difference between those two things.

Given the French, I guess that's the only thing that ship would be good for.
This.

Talk about entitlement!
Funny enough, you can tell that joke today with the US, using Afghanistan, Vietnam and WW2 and some other medals...
They didn't since 1870. That's why there's that old joke (told around the 1950s) where three veterans, a young one, an old one and an ancient one sit together.

Well, at least your computer is now fixed the same way our dog is.
Yup, that's the gist of it.
What's wrong with it is that this is ALL that is left. No information. No education. Nothing of substance.

Great idea!
While we're at it, maybe we can outlaw malware as well?

Name one online resource where this cannot be the case. I'd already be happy if all the links I set still exist the next week.
So what did the smart kid do? Crib from Wikipedia and also crib its citations instead of citing Wikipedia as a source.
Truth? What truth is there in a dud bombshell with huge tits? Is that what you want your kids to learn, it doesn't matter what's between your ears or whether you know how to use it, what matters is that you know how to use what's between your legs?

At least in those games you still have to DO something to achieve something. Sometimes you even have to use your brain.
You joke, but there have already been voices that we should do away with compulsory education and child labor laws.
And yes, I mean in the US.

Maybe it is the media's fault?
Dude, that's racist. On the racism scale of black to white, that's at least Mexican.
Everyone knows they all look the same.

Then again, considering the quality of BIND...
Well, if you find enough bits of the terrorist after the attack, go ahead and beat them...
