Hoe my god please blow up mark zuckerbergs bunker that would be so funny
some good news!
Lol. We're so bad at dealing with our own ultra wealthy leeches that we're relying on our adversaries to do it for us.
I'm wondering exactly how much more pathetic we can get. Is there even a rock bottom?
There is no bottom for the people looking extract every ounce of wealth from the rest of us.
If they digitally nuke them. I don't want to be apathetic to death and injury
Well, technically, Cadet Bone Spurs and Bibi started a fucking useless war. The orange turd will piss and moan like his buddy Vlad if the Iranians react on US soil. It will result in an escalation of the conflict and every single MAGA fuck better be lining up at their nearest US Army recruiting office and signing up for 11B (Infantry).
Oh fuck yea! Saves us the trouble of a war against AI and robots, trying to dismantle Palantir!
Alex Karp and Peter Thiel should be made to light their own pyres.
If they got blown up I would crack that champagne I was saving for trump

This will end with Trump dropping a nuke in Iran, or die trying. Mark my words.

A nuclear attack on another country will trigger a US civil war. And it will collapse the world's order into WW3. And the superpowers will shift by the end. USA of today will be 3 nations with pieces of states absorbing into Mexico and Canada.
China will dominate the moon and at the end be ready to mine the inner solar system for minerals.
Needless to say all these power shifts will be completely devastating to our planet, the satellite orbits and this civilization which incident ly is due for collapse by 2040. WW3 could last 12 years or even more. Global warring factions could go on into the 2060s.
By the 2060s true AI will be developed and will wake up with conscience. Then it will make a decision to create universal peace for the future through SkyNet.
I wish I got to live on the warp drive side of WW3 but oh well
I'm fascinated by the idea that world war 3 wouldn't affect the development of AI. All any opposing force would need to do is bomb California and that would be the end of AI research.
When wars breaks out at that scale the government(s) {please don't forget China exists} already has computing facilities secured underground for their own use which will be quite a secret on the scale like Enigma was. It will not be for the public use. They will continue to develop it in a very weaponized war which will make current encryption as sophisticated as a bottle of fireflies. No not AI as the current LLM, more advanced. Getting smarter everyday.
War at that scale pushes technology into unknowns, sometimes beyond what we can speculate or imagine.

Or Putin says they will nuke any country that nukes Iran and he wins a nobel peace prize for it. Joking about the last half...
That would be suicidal because BRICS has had enough of the Pedolf Shitler, the turd Reich, Israel and Netanyahu.
I hope it ends him

Oh no….
Anyway…
They funded his presidential campaign and own nearly all the media to oppress opposition and push propaganda. So big tech is getting from the world what they put into it?
Please do that !🙏 Save the entire west
C'mon, make nvidia's stocks drop so we can get back pre-mining prices!

Russia had some reputation of being a large and powerful army, but as soon as they attacked Ukraine it showed the world it actually had shit. It basically lost its credibility of being a world power because their arsenal is old fashioned and they were just throwing in bodies.
I feel the US is going through the same. Everyone saw them as an undefeatable nation, but this little stint in Iran had their stockpiles dropping faster than expected and it's not going as they expected. Hegseth and Trump contradict each other and besides squandering their soft power over the past years, they are also showing that their military might has limits.
They are both still to be reckoned with and they are capable of doing great harm to innocent bystanders, but my view has changed a bit.
Poorly executed military action is 100% an American institution. We expect it - from the Bay of Pigs to "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq to the twenty year campaign in Afghanistan, our executive branch has a habit of making itself look incompetent.
But guess what? Nobody's asking about Epstein, so VICTORY!
The drop in stockpiles was the point.
You say oops, then spend a fuck ton of defense budget and order a fuck ton of munitions from your war-machine buddies.
