What the fuck did I read??

Pretty… underrated.

Wow… Just wow…

Post it again but with a parrot on his shoulder.

Local press and lots of people in Brazil criticize judges because, due to flaws on local laws and 80’s redemocratization efforts, they have some perks, privileges and exceptional powers no democratic country would give to them. There are cases ranging from content showing them traveling overseas being not visible on local internet and TV people being given cease-and-desist orders for disagreeing with some judge decision, to people being detained by Federal Police agents for criticizing justice system inside a plane that happens to have a judge among the passengers - not to mention those FBI agents detained at Rio de Janeiro airport for containing a judge’s wife who got unruly in a plane for drinking too much during the fly.

This time however he asked for it, and our justice system toke the right decisions. Elon Musk should know how ridiculously overpowered our judges are before acting like that.

Starlink is ruining law enforcement here in South America already. Drug cartels and people on illegal activities acting in Amazon rainforest are getting increasingly creative at turning their starlink devices on, then off, then on again at different points. Also, such devices switch hands rather quickly - and international borders sometimes - in order to avoid tracking.

Watched a documentary about Goya on an educational TV channel years ago. The documentary tells, among lots of things, how he got progressively tired, sick of playing the role of the boot licker who would paiting anything those brainless and entitled nobles, politicians and rich merchants would want. No matter how whimsical, futile the subject. Exactly the way they wished, no matter if every brush stroke was a lie. Never putting anything shady on negative on them. Until he told his wife he was about to snap and needed to “vent the poison”. He stopped accepting painting orders, locked himself at home and began to frantically, obsessively paint the “black paintings”, one right after another, non-stop.

That would be really cool. Problem is, conversation can get really wild because bots have a tendency to engage in folie-a-deux when interacting with each other. YouTube has videos posted by people who just put two chatbots talking to each other - with kafkian results. Maybe they could, given recent improvements of AIs, program them make one-time replies to each other, say, 10% of times?

Worked with both marketing and tech dudes many years ago, and two things I learned were (1) marketing guys overestimate new/fad tools so badly and (2) they (in conjunction with management) can be mercylessly demanding over TI guys.
