    Do you really think Security would let him anywhere near the big offices.

  2. The law suit doesn't give a shit about "classy" or "presidential". The only question is legality. Why should it be illegal for a Twitter user to use a feature of Twitter?

  3. Re:Twitter could solve it all themselves on Trump Can Block People On Twitter If He Wants, Administration Says (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    There's nothing to be solved. Blocking is a feature every Twitter user has. Why should Trump be singled out just because most of the country hates his guts?

    When was the last time you were invited to a WH press briefing?

  5. Re:SubjectIsSubject on Trump Can Block People On Twitter If He Wants, Administration Says (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Please explain in excruciating detail just why it is that blocking a Twitter user from replying to ones tweets should be illegal just because the Twitter feed is an official communications channel of the POTUS. Because rational people just don't get it.

    Trump isn't blocking anyone from receiving the communications. Anyone is free to sign up for Twitter and start following him.

    Every publisher has discretion to ignore or block communications. So let's throw the question back at you: why is Trump any different in this regard?

    Except, of course, that the WH has complete control over who is allowed at press briefings. Your analogy leads to precisely the opposite conclusion you are trying to draw.

  9. The First Amendment has never required providing a platform. The blocked users can still tweet all they want about anything or anyone.

  10. Free Speech does not mean that each speaker must talk to every other person. The content of the tweets are still publicly available.

    Physically standing in the town square also left you open to beatings. I am fully in favor of bringing Storm Front to the nearest square...

    Lots of people with no particular expertise or knowledge start companies or organizations which require specialized knowledge. Do you think Musk is a propulsion engineer and a materials scientist, too?

    That quote isn't oxymoronic, but you are certainly a moron. Have you never heard the phrase "it takes money to make money"? That's not an oxymoron, either, you stupid shit.

    1) Why do you think AI will ever be more intelligent than humans?
    2) Armies are not run by super-geniuses now, so if AI truly becomes an advantage, both sides will look for more intelligent strategists, whether they are human or AI.

    Are you a fucking moron in real life, or do you just troll slashdot?

    Musk isn't doing any of the engineering himself. He hires people for that. Hawking didn't contract someone to make up shit about AI, he did that all on his own. As did Musk, for that matter.

    You are such a stupid shit that it's amazing that you can even string together coherent phrases. Or is someone ghost-writing for you?

    The kinds of inventions we have now that could do the job only do so when used correctly. Just sayin'

  20. As we are the only species we know of with enough intelligence to use said technology, how do we know what enough time is? Perhaps we'll finally receive a visit or a signal in a few million years.

    Given that we have exactly 1 example to work with, how do we know that other intelligent species could have arisen 1 billion years earlier? All this crap is based on a pile of suppositions and assumptions that are not born out by the one example we have.

    To add to all that, we haven't been able to detect extra-terrasterial signals for as long as we've been broadcasting. It's not unreasonable to assume the same for other species, should they exist.
