No clue but maybe you confused it with this one?

The US helped Saudi Arabia bomb the shit out of Yemen for a long time (search). I'm not properly educated about this myself but there are war crimes, starvation, a lot of shit. I mean you can't keep up. But to them, enforcing sanctions against Israel creates local support, otherwise they are a pretty bad Islamist regime. The Houthis are also not proxys of Iran. So US bombing them probably helps them too internally.

But there is so much shit going on that it's hard to keep up.

I'm feeling a bit of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and a little of 12

Using IP laws to legislate this could also lead to disastrous consequences, like the monopolization of effective AI. If only those with billions in capital can make use of these tools, while free or open source models become illegal to distribute, it could mean a permanent power grab. If the capitalists end up controlling the "means of generation" and we the common folk can't use it.

That is what I was asking because of your outrageous claim (death within a week). But of course you're just a loudmouth.

I imagine that theoretically you could have algorithms or machine learning to calibrate this. Like make test sounds so you see how the sound diffuses and then filter it out.

The US is indeed in a very good position, having only two borders and two oceans between everyone else. They just need to get Mexico to mine their southern border, while they mine theirs.

But Europe, Russia, China, India have plenty of them and won't be able to escape refuge streams or conflicts. Large parts of India might become uninhabitable. Food prices are going to fluctuate. Global trade will become unstable or collapse, disabling the complex globalized industrial economy. Nuclear war is very likely. People still don't know what's coming.

But aren't these key pairs generated per session and/or per contact? So once you switch to a more secure / auditable client this only matters when communicating with people on whatsapp. But they presumably have a backdoor in their app for the NSA anyway.

Is that actually true? I've looked this up a while and it said it's basically overblown or urban myth (wiki). Basically we've been drinking rainwater forever (I know it's not pure) and you get so much stuff through food that it might lead to deficiency but not quickly.

It's per kg of body weight. So if you weigh 80kg (176lbs) then rapidly drinking 7.2L of water has a 50:50 chance to kill you - I think.

Even if you can just add to it, you could have some sort of journalism file system to replace or delete previous files in newer records.

Arthur Wesley after all also bought a muggle car and bewitched it.

Thanks! That is really my only impression, Arthur, even though an expert in Muggles, sees only amusement value in muggle tech. That's why I'd think there isn't really any significant trade possible. Wizards can just create anything with magic. Except maybe land. So the exchange rate would drop if you'd try to trade significantly more. Just my speculation of course :)
