the_doctah··on Police are using AI to pull over drivers for 'suspicious' behavior
You're literally just describing a chicken-and-egg problem. Curious what your brain thinks is the reason African-American communities are policed more intensely. Surely every police organization in the United States is just racist.

Now do firearm related crimes.

Anecdotes fall apart when we don't cherry-pick.

Oops

Literally every single thing you said needs some kind of supporting evidence because it's all nonsense.

Well, yes, because so is crime.

> I urge you to understand that housing prices in Seattle are largely driven by supply inelasticity, more than anything.

Would you say that supply and demand share some kind of economic relationship?

What's racist about it?
the_doctah··on Unknown number of Texas voter registrations went unprocessed due to DPS error
I'm confused by your flippancy, are you suggesting it doesn't happen?
the_doctah··on Unknown number of Texas voter registrations went unprocessed due to DPS error
Because of United States law.

I've found Instagram comments to be heavily censored. What exactly are you worried about?

>you also can't have a street facing surveillance camera like in the US

That's wild. Their solved crime rate must be in the gutter.

>Nobody was going to put pictures of dead kids and far-right propaganda as a suggestion after a pancake recipe or a cat video.

Had to get to the end of the article to find the liberal brainrot.

I watch "The First 48" religiously and its amazing how they go directly to Flock data in every new episode.

>Gabe seems like a pretty good guy but he bought a $70m mansion and builds yachts as a side business…

As if that was a counterexample to him being a good guy? Who cares what he buys. It's his money and its legal. The "billionaire bad" brainwashing needs to stop.

the_doctah··on Sony deletes more movies from the accounts of people who ‘bought’ them
Maybe not the most effective but Helldivers rolled back the requirement to link a Playstation account (on PC) after massive outrage and pushback.

Your employer should pay you 5% less then they are legally obligated to. See how flippant you are then.

Pure conjecture, Reddit-coded, seal-clapping bait.

>Excuse me for not being impressed.

That was always going to be the outcome.

>The burden of proof rests upon the person who makes the allegation. "Do your own research" lol.

This isn't a court of law, I'll provide you with as much or as little evidence as I please.

the_doctah··on What it feels like to work with Mythos
More Mythos Marketing.

It's becoming more like Reddit, that's for sure
the_doctah··on Driver accused of DUI tracks missing laptop to Illinois State trooper's house
Same with polygraph tests. It's not admissible in court. It's an interrogation tactic designed to give some perceived authority to the police's claims that a suspect is lying and give the suspect a reason to talk more.

Should be illegal.

the_doctah··on Stop Flock
Yes, let's have no federal immigration enforcement entity in this country, novel idea.
