I mean you can get weather info by going to weather.gov directly.
I adopted as policy "if you're only posting on Twitter I'm not interested in what you have to say" and I've had no issue with this myself. This meant no longer following some artists and bloggers, but I found replacements here.

It isn't, but OP is trash talking tunneled and elevated rail transit, so logicalally that's the difference they're going for.

A better urban environment would result from spacing major roads closer together but keeping them narrower.

That requirement itself is a bit of a problem. If you need to prove the subject of the material someone was caught with wasn't AI-generated in order to successfully prosecute them, that's going to give people a way to weasel out of convictions.

I think the point is that relatively speaking very few people are actually boycotting Starbucks, and this is not a significant factor in their current financial situation. It matters a lot more that they now have a lot of competition when they used to be the only coffee fancier than Dunkin.

Of course they don't, they're all wildly crawling the internet ingesting whatever they can find. I would say it's almost inevitable at some point they've ingested something illegal.

See also how ZIP codes maddeningly do not reliably follow municipal or county boundaries, which creates all sorts of fun for people who have a mailing address listing the name of a different jurisdiction from the one they actually live in.

The post office is simply no longer committing to canceling stamps same day because it makes their job easier to not have to. If that breaks someone else's workflow, well, that's not USPS' problem.
Add it to the list of ways USPS does what works for them without regard for how it affects others

This breaks reliance on postmarking dates, but I imagine the motivation behind it is simply a matter of process efficiency. The prime purpose of a postmark is to cancel the stamp, it wasn't intended to be used for mailing date verification just as SSNs weren't intended to be used for ID verification

Seems to me a lot of the problem here is we don't exactly have much modern precedent for wildfires burning large numbers of mamade structures in dense concentration, so the consequences of this occurring aren't well appreciated.

It's possible to prosecute the individual user, but not the software provider, which makes this a lot more challenging and resource intensive since you can't attack the source.
And even then, it's not possible to prosecute anyone when the user is also a 12 year old.

I think the bigger problem is you can legally prohibit it all you want, but so long as the necessary technology to do it is out there and easily accessible, you can't really stop people.
You need to make AI image generators themselves illegal to resolve this.

I liken this to the lifecycle of stars. They're great and support life when they're converting hydrogen into helium. But eventually they run out of hydrogen, and then they swell up and destroy the life they previously supported as they now need to re-fuse previously fused fuel to keep going.

Ehhh they've always aligned themselves with the party that represented their best interests at the time.
That used to be the Dems as the party of the youth more eager to adopt new technology. But now that they've hit market saturation and need to be shitty monopolists to keep growing, it's the GOP.
