The five eyes have four other eyes. But, from where I'm sitting the primary eye has only gotten stronger in the last 2 years. See some work we did in late 00's to early 2010's called Nexus 7 and extrapolate to modern capabili

Yeah, back when this stuff was pretty new in 2024 I found a jailbreak and sent some bio/chem weapon instructions it generated to an organic chem PhD friend. They told me not only were the procedures wrong but that there were several st

>"the Second Amendment predates machine guns" That statement is false. Repeating firearms like the Puckle gun predate the bill of rights by ~75 years. More importantly, the Founders were hardly unfamiliar with privately owned m
