@NavedKh67996264 @DiamondandSilk “Claims”
The referendum sounded like a political ad, not a legal referendum question.
Democrats are so currupt they don’t even hide it anymore.
English

@DiamondandSilk Claims about “misleading” language are part of ongoing GOP lawsuits, not a confirmed overturn. Courts are still reviewing challenges, and the Virginia Supreme Court may decide next. The referendum passed narrowly, and any reversal would require a major legal ruling.

@PinayEvelyn @elonmusk There are more white haters than black haters in this country. By far.
Nearly ALL high profile racist acts of violence / defamation were hoaxes.
The whole racket is a Jessie Smulette hoax. “You’re in MAGA country!!”
English

@elonmusk Let's not act like white supremacy isn't a huge threat to communities of color. Racism stinks!

@KanekoaTheGreat There is such little racism in the USA Today. The groups they fight it have to literally fund the racists in order keep the racial tension alive!!

🚨BREAKING: DOJ charges the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) with wire fraud, false statements, and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
The SPLC secretly funneled $3M+ in donor funds to violent racist extremist groups:
-Ku Klux Klan
-American Nazi Party
-Aryan Nation
-United Klans of America
-Unite the Right
-National Alliance
-National Socialist Movement
-Sadistic Souls Motorcycle Club
-American Front
To hide the payments, SPLC allegedly opened bank accounts under fictitious entities to conceal the source and control of donor funds.
Per the indictment: an SPLC field source was a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the 2017 "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville — made racist postings under SPLC supervision and helped coordinate transportation to the event.
FBI Director Kash Patel: "They lied to their donors, vowing to dismantle violent extremist groups, and actually turned around and paid the leaders of these very extremist groups — even utilizing the funds to have these groups facilitate the commission of state and federal crimes."
Acting AG Todd Blanche: "The SPLC is manufacturing racism to justify its existence. Using donor money to allegedly profit off Klansmen cannot go unchecked."
Scheme allegedly ran 2014–2023.
FBI calls it an ongoing investigation.
Insane!!!

@DrNeilStone For flu. Dummy.
Flu vaccines are worthless. They don’t work. For a healthy soldier they are only a safety risk.
English

TWO THIRDS of the 660,000 soldier deaths in the American Civil War were because of infectious disease such as pneumonia, typhoid, diarrhea/dysentery, and malaria
2026 and the US Secretary of War says soldiers don't need to get vaccinated if they don't want to
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth@SecWar
The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine requirement, effective immediately.

@ToTheMoonMiss @WhiteHouse How many pallets of cash were airlifted to Iran???

My wife collapsed in our hotel room in New York today
“Call an ambulance, I can’t breathe” she was screaming
My heart dropped
If she ends up in an American hospital we are financially ruined
I went on the Lufthansa app to book a flight back to Frankfurt, but unfortunately pilots are on strike today
“Please I’m begging you” she was lying on the floor
I sighed and called 911
She is now in surgery as apparently her appendix “almost burst”
I am extremely scared
This is going to cost us at least $100,000
She could have received much better care, for free, in Germany
I will never visit this barbaric country ever again

@grahamformaine Then stop stopping efforts to end corruption. All the liberals LOVED to trash the efforts of DOGE. The most efficient place for a scammer is to work in and for government.
English

@IanCopeland5 When you showed up with low oxygen, instead of giving blood thinners, they put you in a ventilator - because the hospital got more money that way.
That’s medicine.
English

I said this during the pandemic and there were tears.
If you don't trust medicine cool!!!
We accept that.
But when your oxygen level drops below 85% and you start turning blue, keep that same energy.
Why go to the hospital, they are trying to kill you remember?
Jamie Bonkiewicz@JamieBonkiewicz
I don’t understand anti-vaxxers who go to the hospital. Do you believe in medicine or not?

🚨 “WHAT THE F*CK IS GOING ON?” — KATIE COURIC WARNS 17 CANCERS ARE SKYROCKETING… AND NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN WHY
Katie Couric says doctors are now seeing something they can’t ignore:
• A 21-year-old with stage 4 colorectal cancer — no family history
• Patients in their 20s, 30s, 40s being diagnosed late… already metastatic
• 17 different cancers increasing among people under 50
And even specialists are struggling to explain it.
Possible factors being discussed:
• Ultra-processed food
• Microplastics + “forever chemicals”
• Antibiotic overuse
• Environmental exposure
Couric: “It’s not just lifestyle… something is going on.”
And the most unsettling part?
Many cases are being caught too late.
So what changed?
What do you think is actually behind this spike?

Aujourd'hui grosse discussion avec mes ingés (chez Argil) sur pourquoi Elon a viré le LIDAR de ses voitures autonomes. Choix radical, moqué pendant des années, et comme d'hab il avait raison depuis le début.
Le LIDAR c'est un laser qui balaye l'environnement et crache un nuage de points 3D. Sur le papier tu obtiens la géométrie exacte du monde. Dans la vraie vie c'est une verrue technologique collée sur le toit parce qu'on sait pas faire mieux avec la vision seule.
Problème numéro un : ça rajoute une modalité dans le training du modèle. Ton réseau doit apprendre à fusionner vision + lidar + radar + ultrasons. Chaque capteur en plus c'est une source de désaccord à arbitrer, pas une source d'info supplémentaire. Sensor fusion artisanale = dette technique permanente.
Problème numéro deux, la bitter lesson de Rich Sutton : scaler le compute sur une seule modalité bat systématiquement les architectures bricolées à la main. Tesla a dropé le radar, puis les ultrasons, est passé full end-to-end vision. Leur courbe sur les edge cases s'est accélérée APRÈS, pas avant. Waymo fait l'inverse et reste stuck en ops géofencée.
Problème numéro trois, le plus fondamental : le LIDAR voit la géométrie, pas la sémantique. Il sait qu'il y a un truc, pas ce que c'est ni ce que ça va faire. Les derniers 9 de fiabilité sont des problèmes de cognition, pas de perception brute. Un capteur de plus résout rien, il ajoute du bruit.
Sébastien Loeb balance une 208 T16 à 180 dans un chemin boueux corse sous la pluie avec zéro LIDAR. Deux yeux, un cerveau. L'évolution a donné des yeux aux prédateurs pendant 500 millions d'années, pas des lasers. Il y a une raison.
Le LIDAR c'est l'équivalent du marxisme appliqué à l'économie. Une solution planifiée, centralisée, qui prétend modéliser explicitement ce qui doit émerger d'un système distribué et adaptatif. Tu remplaces l'intelligence par de la mesure, la compréhension par de la donnée, l'émergence par le contrôle. Ça rassure les ingénieurs qui veulent tout spécifier en amont, exactement comme la planif rassurait les économistes soviétiques. Et ça échoue pour les mêmes raisons : la réalité est trop riche pour être capturée par un capteur, comme elle est trop riche pour être capturée par un plan quinquennal.
La vraie intelligence, celle de Hayek comme celle de Tesla, c'est de faire confiance à un système qui apprend de l'expérience plutôt que de tout pré-encoder. L'élégance d'une solution c'est son rapport signal sur complexité. Le LIDAR explose le dénominateur.
Défendre le LIDAR en 2026 c'est préférer empiler des hacks plutôt que résoudre le vrai problème. C'est de la feignasserie intellectuelle maquillée en rigueur d'ingénieur. Les mêmes gens qui défendaient les systèmes experts en 2012 contre le deep learning. Ils finiront pareil.
Never bet against end-to-end. Never bet against la simplicité. Never bet against Elon.

@greendragonhq Tax should NEVER be more than 50% for ANYTHING.
Think about what you are advocating: That the government has more rights to your money than you do. That’s literal tyranny.

@CAgovernor All the liberal DAs do t have “hold criminals accountable” as a goal. Not at all
English

Missouri's murder rate is 73% HIGHER than California's.
No amount of right-wing spinning can change reality: our state is investing in prevention, enforcement, and is holding criminals accountable.
Fix your own failed policies before lecturing us.
Senator Eric Schmitt@SenEricSchmitt
California is covering for criminals. Not punishing them. Not stopping them. Covering for them. The paper trail is bloodier and far worse than you could even imagine.🧵

@don_scholl48139 @andieiamwhoiam @TonyLaneNV Yeah. You do if you are an animal or doesn’t believe cops have any authority.

NEW YORK: VIDEO SHOWS OFFICER STRIKING HANDCUFFED SUSPECT
Footage circulating online appears to show an NYPD officer delivering multiple body strikes to a restrained individual.
Reports indicate the person was resisting, with several officers already on scene assisting in the restraint.
The officer’s identity has not been confirmed, and there has been no official update on whether any action will be taken.
No backstory of what happened prior.
What’s your take on this situation? ⬇️ 🇺🇸

@andieiamwhoiam @TonyLaneNV The perp was literally biting the cops leg. Cop stopped when the perp stopped. HELLO , PEOPLE?!?

I have young two children, live in a tiny multi-family home in Chicago and live paycheck to paycheck at a little over 200k/year.
150k for a whole family isn’t “rich”. Plus do I get compensated for all the hard work for little money i invested to get to this stage in my career where I make a (more) decent salary?
English

Netherlands just announced a new 120% wealth tax
It will apply to the ultra-rich who earn above €150k per year
So if you make €200k, you pay €60k on the €50k above the threshold
Dutch officials explained it is to "discourage wealth hoarding behaviour"
So beautifuly said
Finally someone in Europe has the moral spine to put an end this selfish accumulation of wealth
No human being should make over €150k a year
It is a vulgar and borderline pornographic amount
I hope more EU countries will adopt this progressive legislation
This is why Europe is, and always will be, light years ahead of America

@Khamenei_Voice @jacksonhinklle Dude. They were all dirt poor until they did away with socialism. Read a book.
English

@jacksonhinklle Exactly. China lifted 800 million people out of poverty. Built the world's fastest trains. Became a spacefaring superpower. All under communism. The 'communism doesn't work' lie is Western propaganda to hide their own failures. China is proof that a people-centered system works

@Geniustechw How about I dont PAY INTO Social Security my whole life. Then I would be happy not to accept the less money that I put into it.

@mazemoore CNN doing thr bidding of the Democrat party. They really don’t want a Republican governor in California.
