Then why are price so high?

They were illegal when they got here, so they are still illegal. They have to go back to their own country, and re-enter the US properly.

Of course, when they get there and find out their own country is now a US state, and they can't enter it, there may be some confusion.

The word "tick" is very important here.

Our governing system is increasingly illegitimate.

I would assume they were placed on a bedside table pointed in the general direction of the fucking.

But still.

It means I think everyone else is an asshole.

I might be too, but I don't think I am.

Depends. If the chief murdered the guy, then that's the restaurant's responsibility for not keeping the chef secured.

At least I understand the words in the explanation.

But who the duck dislike being called a good boy?

Right, but that's not to protect them from AI. It's to protect them from us, once we come to our senses.

Because the people with money know they don't have to listen to the little people.

We don't even need overblown fears about AI killing everyone. AI is ruining students, ruining artists, causing massive layoffs, being used to monitor and judge our behavior, and is attempting to influence our behavior. It seems there are attempts to give these glorified auto-complete programs increasing amounts of resources and authority.

This is bad for most people. And those of us born after 1980 or so have no illusions that anyone in power is going to care about the welfare of the little people. They only recognize money and power. We don't have money, but there are many kinds of power. I hope someone recognizes the signs, and changes course before it gets bloody.

That's kind of the point, isn't it? Our way of life sucks.

I missed the "X" in that title, and read "EFF is leaving the Electronic Freedom Foundation," and was very confused.
