Not as big a deal as it seems. Even if you can alter the count on election day, you still have to provide the physical ballots for any recount later. That means you have to know how many ‘bad’ ballots need to be removed, and replaced. And then you need ‘good’ ballots to replace them. That means a source of unused…

Modern people would scoff at this and say that carbon remediation, along with population culling in an orderly and rational manner, is the correct way to make sacrifices to the gods for their favor.

If you pay attention, you will find that the general trend is for people being clever to do more satire of themselves than of their intended targets, without being at all aware of it. Wile E. Coyote Syndrome.

So . . . it IS just like people?

Government control is working the way it is intended to work. You want a government that can do things without any accountability, using extra-constitutional agencies and bureaus, to bypass the stalemated legislative process, because something HAS to be done, right now, regardless of objections from nay-sayers? This…

It is so good to see that this administration is taking on the job of addressing the deficiencies in the Veterans Administration program with this BOLD step to improve care and eliminate waste and apathy. Nobody parked in a wheel chair in a hallway, drugged into a stupor to vegetate, should have to share a wall with…

Nope. This demonstration shows the power of AI, in its ability to create a news narrative and edit history to the preferences of the people controlling it. There were no errors.

Right. So long as you have a source of funds to be distributed, it works really well. Living on free money always works, so long as the money keeps coming. Unfortunately, money is not wealth. It is only the token of exchange. Production of actual goods and services must be maintained, in order for there to be wealth…

Not to mention the environmental impact of production. Or the demands for electrical energy that cannot be met. To replace hydrocarbon fuels with “green” alternatives, you need three times the generating capacity, and massive storage systems. There actually is no such thing as a practical EV at this time.

Pretty sure that none of the energy solutions will actually keep the ice age from ending. It’s actually been going on for some time now.

True. But they are right in one sense of it. The AI may be trained with the bad data they prefer, and select ineffective solutions that involve manipulating trace gases in the atmosphere, rather than predicting climate change issues as the ice age ends, and providing adaptive solutions, such as relocation of…

In every western country where capitalism, industry and democracy are part of their culture. But we HATES all of those things!

People who do not live in industrialized, democratized, capitalist nations with advanced technology. But we don’t want don’t want democracy, capitalism and industry to become the standard for civilization.

Again, no mention of how reducing emissions would prevent the ice age from ending. No idea how it would warm the seas to prevent inland desertification or glacial recession. These, of course, have been the global climate trend for thousands of years, and destined to continue for as long as polar ice results in a lack…

Fresh water reserves, including glaciers, subterranean aquifers, atmospheric moisture, and green biomass, have been steadily diminishing since the ice age cooled the Earth’s oceans. They will continue to do so until the oceans warm up and the atmosphere increases in depth and density as a result.

If you have studied the science at all, you would already know that you cannot prove that CO2 levels cause climate changes. Their only effect is diffusion. Diffusion can slow energy loss. It does not prevent it. Nor does it amplify energy. Your belief that there is an imaginary IR amplifier in the sky is apparently…

Or, it could be that Catholic schools, better at teaching actual science than public schools, are not indoctrinating the young in the false claim that CO2 controls the climate. So they don’t believe that the ice age is ending because of human industry and hydrocarbon fuels. Because it has been ending for thousands of…

Ideological purity is not a suggestion.

Plumes of water vapor now twice as likely to cool and condense before being forced inland by expansion of air and vapor behind them?

Portability. Energy density. Convenience.
