Not to mention that MREs are obscenely expensive for garrison use.
TL;DR: DOGE screwed up our missile defense and now we'll pay more to fix it than DOGE saved in the first place.

The dog that looks like a chocolate lab (foreground) is actually a double doodle. His parents, both labradoodles, are 65 and 67 pounds and light colored.
He's 102 pounds and looks NOTHING like them. Mutations FTW I guess...

Out today thrifting with my partner. There are things you should never buy second hand. Actually, things that NOBODY should buy anywhere other than new, ideally from a reputable establishment

I frankly cannot believe how over the top complicit the press is in implicitly supporting Trump's illegal actions.
By this standard, he could shoot a homeless person in cold blood in the streets and the Reuters headline would be "Trump frees man from a lifetime of drug addiction."

!["The president was enraged," Esper recalled. "He thought that the protests made the country look weak, made us look weak and 'us' meant him. And he wanted to do something about it.
"We reached that point in the conversation where he looked frankly at [Joint Chiefs of Staff] Gen. [Mark] Milley and said, 'Can't you just shoot them, just shoot them in the legs or something?' ... It was a suggestion and a formal question. And we were just all taken aback at that moment as this issue just hung very heavily in the air."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:imfamhliw5q2fwk6x36hjfj4/bafkreic5anlrr5wpaqxokzugec4z3mwsuqkupoporl7zqe7kwq7pmjirdm@jpeg)

It seems like there's criminal liability here for xAI. This isn't a Section 230 thing because it isn't user generated content.
The reality is that a crime was committed by publishing CSAM. We CANNOT let companies create AI that commits crimes without any liability. Nothing good will come of that.

Can we also address that the xAI team is both deflecting blame and perpetuating a fraud here?
Grok is not sentient. It cannot regret anything. It is not sorry. The safeguards that failed are the sole responsibility of the xAI team. Period.

How it started, how it's going...
Just six days after DOD announced it is adding xAI models to GenaAI[.]mil, Grok posted CSAM to Xitter.
