Space junk is highly deterministic, though. No atmosphere to fuck with.

It absolutely is, even if your particular instance hasn’t been. Lemmy.world probably takes the brunt of it.
Does that claim remove the existence of conflict of interest?
State funding describes a conflict of interest, whether perceived or actual.
Musk wasn’t wrong in applying the state media tag to NPR/BBC/CBC. At the end of the day, they are funded by the state.
Thanks, China.
The entire point of E2EE is that it doesn’t matter who the host is.
Tell me you haven’t read the Communist Manifesto without telling me you haven’t read the Communist Manifesto.
The bot doesn’t know what’s “real” or not though - it’s a large language model, not a model of the real world. All it knows is what it’s been told in its training data.
Is anyone arguing that, at the time of the Iraq War, it wasn’t considered a “truth” in America that Iraq was developing WMDs and that anything to the contrary was considered disinformation?
How the fuck are 14 155mm shells filled with mustard gas from 1980 and a few kilograms of expired growth media going to kill millions of people?
Iraq had those same stores of chemical weapons since the 1980s and was in the slow and arduous process of dismantling them (it had dismantled something like 90-95% of its WMDs by 2003 and was not stockpiling replacements). Given the lack of new production, many of the chemical weapons supposedly in Iraq’s stockpile would have turned harmless due to the short shelf life of chemical weapons.
By and large, people used this imagined idea that Iraq was still developing nuclear weapons as the justification for the invasion. American media ran stories about how aluminum tubes “used for uranium enrichment” were being imported by Iraq. American media brought out Iraqi defectors of questionable credibility who talked about Iraq’s burgeoning nuclear capability. American intelligence claimed that Iraq was actively seeking nuclear weapons development. Of course, all of these claims were entirely false.
Ah yes, American truths like “Iraq has WMDs and that’s why invading them is the fair and just thing to do,” “abortion is bad for human rights,” “the US isn’t collecting all of your internet traffic because that would be a violation of privacy,” and “this CIA-funded coup of a democratically-elected government will definitely help spread democracy around the world.”
This researcher has built a pro-America AI disinformation machine for $400. I expect that, like most American media, it will start citing “independent think tanks” like Atlantic Council (which, coincidentally, is staffed mostly by ex-US intelligence and receives funding from US intelligence agencies) and use reports gathered by “independent sources” such as the US 4th PsyOps Airborne (which, per their recent recruiting videos, admits to orchestrating large-scale protests including Euromaidan, Tiananmen Square, and others).
It’s literally a poor financial decision to get an iPhone in the US. Flagship pricing on Android phones in the US is so fucking low you can get an S23 for like $300 on a $20 4 month contract.
Quite. All American networking equipment is being used to spy on people, so clearly all Chinese networking equipment must be, too. Evidence? Unnecessary.
Fiberglass is a bitch and it’s used in far greater quantities.
Have you ever wondered why people are so eager to accept the premise that China is doing everything to spy on foreign nationals?
Considering that those claims are almost all getting started by American agencies, and given the details of the Snowden leaks… America is projecting.
Do you understand how fucking convoluted and bureaucratically insane the US H1B visa system is?
On the other hand, what if the problem is simply one that’s no longer important for most people? Isn’t technological advancement supposed to introduce abstraction that people can develop on?
Satellites have some degree of mobility and space junk follows trajectories that can be computed basically infinitely into the future.
