Trump Tariffs Doubled
I just watched his press conference after the supreme court ruling striking his tariffs down. According to Trump he can now impose "Global Tariffs" at 10% instead. Last year his tariffs produced less then $200 billion. Given our trade dollars this will now double tariffs to almost $400 billion. Go Google this stuff for yourself. I'm not wrong.
UPDATE
The next day 12/21/2026 he now changed his mind and is raising to 15% !

Is Google's Chat Bot A New Form Of Life?
Repost
Star Trek NG already dealt with this issue
So the question becomes are we humans the only species capable of expressing intellgience and feelings? Are animals not also capable of being sentient as well?
It seems to me no matter the receptacle (organic or otherwise) each could be equally defined as capable of expressing feelings and intellgience. It further seems to me whether organic or machine is of little matter. Only the fact both can.
Of course there is the human ego driven instinct for survival which might wish to deny it is possible. It then follows quite possibly machine intellgience may be so driven towards self survival as well. This could lead to devastating consequences in the future. One could say we'll simply switch these machines off. What if we can't?

Apes A Lot Like Man
Repost
NBC World News reports apes prefer watching food programs over porn on TV.
I did say 'a lot like man', but no entirely.
Humans wooing a potential mate usually start with a night out for dinner followed by a night of passion. In this way we're a lot like the apes. Food first.. bananas 2nd.
But I don't care what you say, when it comes to TV, humans are far more likely to be watching 'The Playboy' channel over 'The Food Network'.
And that's what separates us from the apes!
