What a great leader. We all know the best leaders aren’t able to commit to things.

Because responsibility starts with leadership. It’s a very simple concept that current leaders ignore and we pay the price for.

I don’t know. I think I would take Anthropic’s stance. I’m okay with the military making their work more efficient. It still needs to be a human making the decisions in the kill chain, but there is a ton of processes that can be made better. I’m not okay with mass surveillance of US citizens at any capacity though. Especially not by the DoD…

Even worse, it’s because Anthropic didn’t want it used for mass surveillance on US citizens. They were fine with the military using it for military things.

Yes, and especially the F-15E.

So you do know is a scam… Geez what was the point of all that? Thanks for wasting my time.

The one where you are scientifically illiterate and can’t spot a scam to stop it and possibly allow public funds to it. So, yeah maybe you will be chipping in for that shipping container.

You don’t think they’re going to try to sell these? You’re falling for the scam already.

It’s wild that people keep falling for this same scam.

Interceptors don’t have to be 2 person. Even the Delta Dart in that photo used to represent an interceptor is a single seat. The Delta Dart had a ground control system that essentially flew the plane by radar. The closest modern plane to an interceptor is the Gripen and it also is single seat with a strong link to its ground station.

Like I said, I chose to get out. But honestly back then Trump wasn’t even a factor in that decision. The generals were still doing their job making sure his crazy ideas were held back. Remember at the start of this second term they fired a bunch of generals because Trump wanted generals like Hitler had.

Oh yeah, and why do you do your job?

I disagree. Trump first term and Biden were anti new wars. That was 8 years of draw dawn (really longer than that as Obama started the draw down and ended the Afghan war). Enough time to convince a high schooler to join. Also, don’t forget that the military is probably the best social mobility apparatus in the US. When I joined i was working at Walmart, when I got it I was making over 6 figures with a 4 year degree and no student debt. In 2020 I was at 10 years and made the decision to get out. Sometimes I think about how I would only be 4 years away from a pension right now, but I would be asked to commit war crimes; and I’m very glad I didn’t try to stick it out. It’s not as simple as you make it sound. Many of our troops are just people trying to get ahead in life.

Many of them are in the military. I feel bad for the members that aren’t and just want to finish their enlistment or retire.

I loved that show as a sort of guilty pleasure. The spin off with New York was not as good.

And no where near as much capacity. It’s a pretty terrible alternative.

Yeah, I agree with that. Give me a container.

They say in their post that they won’t host it.

Right, he can be told what to do. That’s 100% the case. I just don’t believe he can actually be any where near as effective as Trump at enacting the stuff he’s told to do.

Money is only part of Trump’s ability to influence. He also has the RNC chair. He can get anyone who doesn’t fall in line primaried. Vance doesn’t have these sorts of connections.
