You can’t envision it because you live in a country that is currently incapable of maintaining basic infrastructure and providing the most bare minimum housing for its populace, much less expanding it.

That’s not true for elsewhere in the world, nor is it true historically.

10 million dedicated laborers (10%) is an insane amount of manpower.

Can you cite any specifics? Because either things are actively spicier than I was aware of or you misunderstood what was being said.

If that was the goal it would’ve been false flagged already. The goal really is just a simple as they don’t think their actions will have consequences, and so far they’ve been largely correct.

You didn’t answer the question.

How much more tyrannical do you need?

As a crime-free civilian

No you’re not you just haven’t been prosecuted for any of them.

You, and everyone else, are just as much inherently criminals as those behind bars. You’ve just gotten lucky so far with your life trajectory to have different experiences.

^Link is specific to US and UK but holds true for most any “developed” country.^

That’s the logic behind prison, but not the reality.

Locking a person in a cage does not solve whatever underlying issue led to the crime in the first place. The resulting trauma and stigma almost certainly makes it worse once they get out of prison causing crimes.

Or they are locked in a cage forever for the most menial of crimes, at which point they themselves are the victims of a greater crime.

Its not a lie, there’s a formal point system to determine whether someone is associated with Tren de Aragua. 8 points means they’re definitely a part of the gang.

It’s 3 points for being in the US without documentation, 6 points for associating with any known members and 2 points for any social media posts containing “associated references”.

Practically every Venezuelan is part of the gang according to the DoJ. So it’s not a lie, just guilt by association.

when they finally crash and burn like RCA, AT&T, Motorola, Intel, and many others

In what world have any of these “crashed and burned”

Sure, but you can do better for $3. Smaller, more powerful, similar power consumption

I’m sorry for being a bit of a good time to try and get a publishable result of the day 🤣

Dependence and addiction are different things. I find the story of mathematician Paul Erdős’s bet on stopping amphetamines illustrates it best where he had no problem stopping but said of the experience:

“You’ve showed me I’m not an addict. But I didn’t get any work done. I’d get up in the morning and stare at a blank piece of paper. I’d have no ideas, just like an ordinary person. You’ve set mathematics back a month.”

If you’re addicted to stimulants, that’s a health problem and has both poor sensitivity and selectivity for ADHD. If someone is taking stimulants and forms dependence but not addiction that is somewhat sensitive for ADHD but has terrible selectivity.

Takeaway option one: Society does a terrible job accommodating those individuals who are any sort of neurodivergant and many laws, especially those around drug use and possession, don’t actually improve society and instead primarily harm those who are most vulnerable. The takeaway here being that the laws/society are a problem that needs to be revised.

Takeaway option two: Neruodivergance = criminal and anyone with a diagnosis of ADHD/Autism/etc. should be placed under enhanced supervision as they are likely to do crime in the future. Those people are the problem and preemptive detention is the only possible solution to prevent them crime-ing all over the place.

Take a guess which direction the UK is going to go with this?

Highway of tears, there have been several leads and several serial killers caught. The original list in 1980 included Larry Vu, Eric Charles Coss, and Phillip Innes Fraser but they were later removed after the “highway of tears” designation to focus exclusively on first nation women.

The lack of males is due primarily to the categorization, not the lack of victims.

Safe from theft, vandalism and harassment? Mostly yes! Safe from police looking to solve homelessness via criminalization? No.

It wasn’t originally my claim

Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention and missed that. I apologize.

loads of modern computers don’t use DDR5 or ECC variants of older generations at all, so don’t have any error-correcting memory. If the wrong bit flips, they just crash.

Integrated memory ECC isn’t the only check, it’s an extra redundancy. The point of that paper was to show how often single bit errors occur within one part of a computer system.

memory errors are really rare

Right, because of redundancies. It takes 2 simultaneous bit flips in different regions of the memory in order to cause a memory error and it’s still ~10% chance annually according to the paper I cited.

it’s talking about machines with error correcting RAM, which most consumer devices don’t have.

It’s a paper from 2009 talking about “commodity servers” with ECC protection. Even back then it was fairly common and relatively cheap to implement though it was more often integrated into the CPU and/or memory controller. Since 2020 with DDR5 it’s mandatory to be integrated into the memory as well.

gives figures around 10% for the chance of an individual device experiencing an unrecoverable error per year, which isn’t really that often

Yes, that’s my point. Your claim of “computers have nearly no redundancy” is complete bullshit.

I think you are both overestimating the ability of biological systems and underestimating the ability of mechanical systems to be repaired.

Biological systems have incredible self-repair capabilities, but are otherwise largely unrepairable. To fix issues with biological systems you mostly have to work within the bounds of those self-repair mechanisms which are slow, poorly understood and rather limited.

Loosing a few skin cells is perfectly normal. Corrupting a few skin cells can cancer cancers or autoimmune disorders. Loosing a few Purkinje cells can lead to significant motor impairment and death.

Computers, and mechanical systems in general, can have a shit ton of redundancy. You mention ECC, but neglected to mention the layers of error connection, BIST, and redundancy that even the cheap, broken, cost-optimized, planned obsolescence consumer crap that most people are mostly familiar with make heavy use of.

A single bit flipped by a gamma ray will not cause any sort of issue in any modern computer. I cannot overstate how often this and other memory errors happen. A double bit flip can cause issues in a poorly designed system and, again, are not just caused by cosmic rays. However, it’s not usually that hard to have multiple redundancies if that is a concern, such as with high altitude, extreme environment, highly miniaturized, etc. objects. It does increase cost and complexity though so____

The huge benefit of mechanical systems is they are fully explainable and replaceable. CPU get a bunch of radiation and seems to be acting a bit weird? Replace it! Motor burnt out? Replace it! The new system will be good as new or better.

You can’t do that in a biological system. Even with autografts (using the person’s own tissues for “replacements”) the risk of scarring, rejection and malignancy remains fairly high and doesn’t result in “good as new” outcome, but is somewhere between ‘death’ and ‘minor permanent injury’. Allografts (doner tissues) often need lifelong medications and maintenance to not fail, and even “minor” transplants carry the risk of infection, necrosis and death.

And don’t forget cheaper!

Which is why its imperative that little Timmy is sent to the mines despite all the risks and occupational health hazard that will eventually kill them.

Microsoft when Bing first came out was literally like “it is highly recommended that everyone here use Bing Search”.
