  • I see no issues here. These AI tools came out during the game's development. Its not unreasonable to try using new tools upon release. And its reasonable to be unaware of the harms of these new tools before the harms are widely reported on.

    If things were as described, this seems fine. They now have a clear policy against AI. People, even in groups can be mistaken and learn and change their ways, which is what appears to have happened here. I can't fault anyone for making the occasional misstep.

    So long as they stick to their commitment to not use AI.

    Not only is AI bad it is also bad —

  • Every time I bought a new phone, I considered it a downgrade. There is literally no phone I am in any way interested in purchasing.

    I want a phone small enough to fit in a normal pocket, and has physical buttons for basic navigation, that supports current wireless standards. No such thing seems to exist.

  • I was in a jury recently, and they were clear in the instructions that we were to make decisions on the basis of the law as it is, not one what we think it should be. Some of the questions during jury selected were specifically tailored to identifying those who might consider nullification.

    Juries still exist in civil cases. They are there to make findings of fact, just like a criminal case. Bench trials are those without a material dispute of the facts.

    Nullification is a side effect, a consequence of the process. Nullification is not the primary reason for a jury.

  • Juries exist to determine facts, and check the work of the prosecutor to make sure they proved the case to the standards required by law. They are an essential part of the legal process, and the possibility of nullification is an interesting byproduct.

    This case was not nullification. He was charged with theft for towing a car, which is not theft anywhere, and is standard practice for tow truck operators. The vehicle was returned less than 20 minutes later.

    Not guilty was a reasonable conclusion, not a case of a jury nullifying an otherwise solid case.

    voting takes one day. It doesn't prevent you also doing direct action, or general strikes, or whatever more forceful actions may be needed. Its not an either or situation. Use all the tools available to you including your vote

  • The progressive ones voted against this. Bernie Sanders, Elisabeth Warren, Ron Wyden and 17 others did vote against this. Voting has an effect. It does move the needle.

    Voting is not enough on its own. You can do more. You should do more. Your have power over the government goes beyond the ballot box, but its best to use both.

  • For it to be nullification, the prosecutor would have to have brought an otherwise winning case. The feds no longer have comptent attorneys. They couldn't even get a grand jury to indict a man for throwing a ham sandwich. The administration's only wins come from the one court with no ethics rules.

    Nullification would be nice, but unlikely to come up.

  • the jury found Nunez not guilty of one count of theft of government property

    the defense attorneys argued that the law enforcement vehicle was blocking the driveway to the complex and their client had moved it around the corner — just one block away. They said that the car was returned within 13 minutes.

    Given what he was charged with, the jury's conclusion is entirely reasonable. Towing illegally parked cars is standard practice in the industry. I don't think its reasonable to conclude the result was from nullification.
