Not going to be useful. They don’t want a democracy, they don’t want a justice system. They want a king and the ability to use state power to shit on other people.
I think it would be right in saying the scientific method hasn’t ruled it out as it hasn’t been applied to the phenomenon in question. There is also no reason to believe it did happen, and our current understanding suggests that if such a thing as a portal is possible (whatever portal means here) it likely would not ‘just happen’.
Assuming the witness isn’t just lying, I think the best thing would be to rule out psychological or neurological causes first. But without a portal to actually study, the scientific method isn’t going to get very far.
As I said, their problem isn’t that fascism is bad, it’s that they don’t like the word, or anything that looks like 1930s fascism. For them it’s a marketing problem that needs a marketing solution. How do we sell it to a country that hero-worships a generation that made war against it and first hand saw the evils it produced. Folk hate being called a fascist even if they fully support all the policies.
It is a lot like watching two people fight I think. You don’t have to like either of them to enjoy watching them beat each other up, but it isn’t any fun if it is just one person battering the other.
Basic blender went bad (motor ran but spindle wasn’t rotating). I wanted to disassemble to see if it could be repaired. Three of the four screws were Phillips head. I had to cut the casing open in order to discover why I couldn’t unscrew the fourth. It was a slotted spanner.
This is why I like finest as percentage of turnover like what the GDPR does. Even the big shits pay attention of you are willing to make the fines actually significant.
Or we can just start nationalising businesses that break the law. No compensation for the leaches, just now the company serves the state. Lots of folk have no problem imprisoning and nationalising the labour of human criminals.
If we are going to suffer states we should at least make good use of them.
The idea that AI-created music should just go into the public domain is I think the wrong kind of thinking. It is not simply that AI has no access to copyright, AI has no access to moral rights either. My understanding is that it didn’t actually create anything.
Now if an artist uses an AI as part of their work, they are doing some creating, but the AI has no more role in the process than a set of speakers. No one extends their creative credits to their amp. Moog don’t make music no matter how important their instrument was to the sound. If I make a random hole puncher and feed it’s output into a player piano the machine isn’t making art.
