When Democrat politicians fuck up, other Democrats will absolutely call for, and get, resignations. Even things that boil down to consenting adults in privacy can result in resignations when it's seen to compromise a politician.

When Republicans fuck up, the party circles the wagons and goes full defensive. They will absolutely fight to resist any calls to resign, using any tactic they can think of to keep their latest pedo/pervert/con man/criminal in power. Only if the evidence is incontrovertible, and the outcry impossible to ignore, will they ever consider resignation, and as we've seen with Gaetz, that's not even necessarily the end of their career.

MTG is exactly the kind of brainlet to think that Democrats work the same way Republicans do. She thinks "Release all the Ethics reports" will make Democrats back down, or at least intimidate them. A party agreeing to release ethics reports relating to their own people is utterly unthinkable to her.

It'll still NEED a power cable, it just won't COME with one.

And the fact that Google didn't pay them more money than exists in the world will be why Russia blocks Google's operations in the country and seizes every bit of property they can get their hands on that they say was even vaguely related to Google's operations. They didn't even bother with a realistic number, because in the end they don't really care who does or doesn't believe them.

Elmo was really hoping he found a SovCit level loophole to just escape all consequences.

Elon Musk's greatest personal achievement has been his tireless work and incredible effort toward disproving the myth of Billionaire Exceptionalism.

Killing dogs is apparently really popular with those people. Has me wondering if the "Haitians are eating dogs" lie was actually a confession.

Yeah? That's... how LLMs work. It doesn't KNOW anything, it's a glorified auto-fill. It knows what words look good after what's already there, it doesn't care whether anything it's saying is correct, it doesn't KNOW if it's correct. It doesn't know what correct even is. It isn't made to lie or tell the truth, those concepts are completely unknown to it's function.

LLMs like ChatGPT are explicitly and only good at composing replies that look good. They are Convincing. That's it. It will confidently and convincingly make shit up.

Fallout 76 said the same thing. How'd that work out?

Spoken like someone who manages programmers instead of working as one.
