> Democrats need to listen to their own rhetoric and actually take the threat seriously, instead of seeing an opportunity to win a narrow partisan victory for their extremists.
I'm wondering what you call "their extremists". Seen from Europe all Republican candidates are extremists, and Democrats are centrists at best.
The deep blue ones who demand everyone check all their boxes.

That seems like a warmed-over 90s perspective that's long past its sell-by. Aren't there "far right" parties in power or nearly in power in much of Europe, and at least one European country that's totally dominated by one?

Not even close. European politics is by design coalition politics there is no voting blue or red, you are voting for a party and if party has certain amount of votes it will get into parliament (except UK).
The thing is that you would need absurd amount of votes to get more than half of seats in parliament and govern as a single party. So what is normal in USA (one party rule) is exceptionally rare in Europe.
So even if you "win" elections, you need to establish coalitions with less extreme parties to actually achieve majority in government and to be able to modify laws. This will average out your program and will cut down extreme edges on both sides.
Dont dream. Even if this project is successful, the protocol may be open but the API keys will only be available to Google, OpenAI & co through complicated deals. You'll never be able to use them.
Someone with 300TB of free storage and a "chaotic" alignment could download a particular archive containing the whole Spotify shebang. And then run a Jellyfin instance around this archive. That would work quite well.
Indeed Max was involved in the "new app" trainwreck. And was subsequently fired from Sonos along with Patrick. (Source : I also have been fired with several hundreds others because of that fiasco ; you can guess I'm somewhat bitter)
in some sense it isn't nightnmare, it is already a reality, just non-uniformly distributed. Sounds like you just haven't watched hours of footage from Ukraine. The drones there - in the 10-30km zone from the frontline - are onmnipresent like birds, just the birds of the killing-humans-on-sight kind (and with IR cameras it is 24x7, at night it is even more effective as you don't see it coming, only hear a slight buzz of the props, while the drone sees a warm human even better at night, like a kind of a flying rattlesnake :).
Makes sense. My grandpa is one year his junior and you would never see him react too strongly to anything, even though grandma (also still alive) always had an, ahem, fiery personality.
Also he refuses to sit and moves around all the time, venturing outside every day from their apartment four floors above ground without a lift.
Interestingly his own father didn't make it to his 60s, so there's certainly a lifestyle component to this.
