    Hawley introduced the legislation, titled the Decoupling America’s Artificial Intelligence Capabilities from China Act, on Wednesday of last year.

    For people who see this, I think they meant “last month.”

    A dying empire doing everything it can to delay the inevitable. We really are watching the beginning of the end of the US hegemony aren’t we?

      The theory that the builders of Empire were the ones that understood it, and the inheritors of Empire are true believers in the false justification the builders gave and thus defeat itself when given the reigns is coming more and more true.

    Guess you’ll have to jail all the chuds and libs who typed “Tienanmen Square Massacre” so they could post the screenshot on Reddit as some kind of gotcha on China.

    So we’ve gone from banning books to banning apps.

    could face up to 20 years in jail, a million dollar fine, or both.

    So I’d get less for stabbing someone.

        Sliding right and left. It’s becoming more polarized as Empire decays.
