@mimsical @tchambers I use it daily for my contracting work as a tool.

I think what most people don’t get is the effort you have to put into it to make it useful to you.

Yes you can ask it to do ‘something’ and it will spit out an answer, but that answer normally sucks.

You need to reason, train, and provide information to get you to the destination.

Paramount kept their staff on hand to handle stressful conditions, surely kept lots of folks on-call to ensure the Superbowl could be streamed on their service, had record viewership numbers and then immediately laid off 800 of the people who helped give them that success the next day so that the executive leadership could pocket all the profits without sharing it with the labor force who built it.

Seriously. Eat the rich.

@rodhilton I’m on a slack group with a bunch of my old coworkers who all now work there and had to follow this in realtime today.

I felt horrible for all of them.

Especially one who had his 1:1 moved to today with his boss, only to find out it was just a coincidence and he wasn’t getting laid off.

Jesus Christ the people stumbling over themselves to excuse this are just as bad as the ones trying to excuse Trump's handling of classified information.

It's a super hypocritical look that folks on the left have been wanting to jail Trump for his handling of intelligence materials but seem fine with Biden willfully disclosing classified materials, for seemingly no reason other than that he's too old and feeble to stand trial, and that a jury wouldn't convict him.

https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/biden-classified-documents-report-02-08-24/index.html

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton I don’t think it is splitting hairs at all.

He did willfully take them. He took documents from his office when he left, but it was not intentionally done for criminal purposes or malice. They flat out said even if he wasn’t president there is not a crime in doing what he did.

What Trump did was 1000% different and I bet we find out there is more evidence as to why he took them when this thing goes to trial.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton Also I think many people and legal experts all say that Trump made it worse by retaining the documents and not giving them back when asked.

He obstructed justice and probably wouldn’t have been charged if he just returned them.

So that goes to your argument of either charge both or none.

If Trump would have done the right thing it probably would have ended up that way, but based on his actions it has led them to have no choice but to charge him.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton Yah I get it and I am not arguing that fact. I am saying that in itself is not a crime.

Trump is charged with willful retention of national defense information, false statements and representations, conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document, concealing a document in a federal investigation and more.

If Biden did all those things he would be charged when he was no longer president.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton it is a crime because it is illegal to knowingly posses classified information and states secrets, BUT….

I think the archives and justice department are understanding when a person in a position of power transitions out of office that they may “willfully” take items of the course of the transition, and the expectations are that when the government says YO we are missing Iran War Plans can you check the magazine rack in your toilet to see if you have them and give them back, you do.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton levels and relevancy of the classifications I would assume have a major part in it.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@rodhilton I still think there is a massive difference and it is not apples to apples.

It’s like a car accident, once you drive away and leave a scene you make the crime much worse!

More importantly great back and forth.

Thanks for the conversation.

@spurs // Ali Gold on Emerson Royal

“Tottenham defender Emerson Royal believes that life as a centre-back could be something he takes to as his career progresses.”

I really like Royal. He's not the best in any area but he works so hard, is still young, improving, and such a good energy to have around the club. For me he was second best player against Burnley after Porro.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@hallenbeck @spurs

Wow this is your worst take I have read on here. I may have to rethink our social media relationship. HA!

Royal is horrible. A disaster waiting to happen.

Wether it is a bad pass straight to a defender, a poor foul given trying to make up ground, holding the ball too long trying to dribble up and just giving the ball away, or worse just lazily watching the play unfold while on D.

The amount of times Davies and Vickers have looked at him like WTF is too many to count.

Jfrites,
@Jfrites@shakedown.social avatar

@IanHill @brndnpink @hallenbeck @spurs I think that is where I would much rather see the young kids get a shot.

He is just not good enough to spend money on. Would rather reinvest in players you can trust.

And I do not think he can cover any of the positions. His time at CB has been a shit show.

We are lucky to survive any game and have lost a majority of them when he is back there.

Won’t argue stats except to say I don’t believe them.

Jfrites,

@chrisbegley @hallenbeck @brndnpink @IanHill @spurs

Davies is the perfect example actually. He is exceptional, I just don’t like Royal.

I think moving a guy around makes 0 sense. You can take a younger guy and get him playing time.

Anyway we debated long enough. Let’s get on to talking about TIMO and the hopeful announcement of the Dragon!

@tatonka @hallenbeck @spurs biggest mistake was his fault.

He demanded he play CB.

He was best a CDM and should have continued to play there and have a killer duo behind him.
