It's not perfect - it misses things here and there, or identifies things wrong (probably fixed if closer up) - but it's surely good enough to be workable in areas of known hostile activity. You can even filter down by subtypes, like "intact military vehicles" or "air defense systems" or whatnot.
Huh. Apparently Segment Anything can - without any custom training, and with potato-quality drone images - do a pretty good job of finding military targets.
#Tennessee Republicans, spurred on by #chemtrail advocates, pass a bill that, on the face of it, appears to unintentionally ban all #CO2 emissions ("injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals into the air affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight")
@HistoPol Tesla is just switching to signing the car over to the owners before it gets the plates and then the owner files a missing plate request.
Note that there's two court cases, once against the transport authority and one against the post office. The former case has gone much better than the latter.
Tesla does not need ports. It already transports a large portion of its vehicles by road.
Tesla Sweden sales this quarter were about 50% higher than one year ago.
@forteller You're talking ideology. I'm talking pragmatism. I'm telling you the results of this: these people will either lose their job or crawl back in a worse situation than they left.
If your ideology makes you happy with that *outcome*, then knock yourself out.
@forteller OMG, if they can't find strikebreakers, and they for some bizarre reason can't just ship in new people from elsewhere in Europe, why they'd have they have to ship cars 1-6 hours for painting, however will they manage? I mean, that might cost, like, a couple dozen to a couple hundred euros! Surely they'll go bankrupt... :eyeroll:
I don't think people like you get it. The value chain isn't in Sweden. The value chain is in Berlin, Shanghai, Austin and San Francisco.
@clacke@aral Okay, if a person ***actually accepts facts*** then there isn't much more to say indeed.
Nazis were NOT mass forcing women to have children. Any assertion otherwise is 100% ahistorical. They encouraged women to marry with propaganda, awards (such as the Mother's Cross), social organizations (such as NS-Frauenschaft), etc. And even still, women worked - just in "traditional feminine jobs" (nurses, teachers, secretaries, etc).
@clacke@aral And even then, there were prominent single women. For example, though she eventually married (briefly) in 1944, the single Leni Riefenstahl was the most famous film propagandist of the Nazi regime, directing such infamous films as The Triumph of Will. Or for a more extreme example, the youngest woman to ever be executed under British law was Irma Grese, a brutal and sadistic Auschwitz guard, sentenced to death at the Belsen trial.
If to you the essence of Naziism and The Handmaid's Tale is both "Women are encouraged to raise large families", then you have no clue about either of them (but *especially * Naziism*).
@clacke@aral um, no. It's abour religious extremism vs. extreme racism. Nazi Germany wasn't anything like The Handmaid's Tale. Hitler wasn't even very religious (though the Nazis had sort of an alliance with the Catholic church.. though also dabbled in paganism). And contrarily, The Handmaid's Tale wasn't about a conspiracy that Jews are a mind virus causing races to ignore interests essential to their survival in an upcoming resource panic.
@silverwizard And what is your purported "stated interest"? Literally the only thing stated interest I can think of that most billionaires have signed onto is the Giving Pledge, which is literally the opposite of the point you're trying to make. They cover a wide range of nationalities, races, and political leanings, and indeed, many of them can't stand each other and think that the other is dangerous for society. Just like people as a whole do.
@hypolite I'm sorry, but EVERYONE in the species Homo sapiens is a human. Not some shadowy "Other". The stereotyping of broad groups as otherwise rather than considering them as individual human beings subject to the same human characteristics as others is an incredibly dangerous moral philosophy.
