As a quick and agreeing follow on to the Alexa / brain analogy, I recommend folks take a look at the Dune prequel *The Butlerian Jihad*. It gives a fictionalized account of how mans growing dependence on technology resulted in those same machines subjugating the frail humans. With our current development of AI, this scenario is not as implausible as it may seem.
Calling out any race is hate speech. Especially since there was no reason to bring up race in the first place.
In reality those on the left like to create racism where none exists to distract form the larger issue. The issue that they have little no knowledge on a subject and have lost the argument.
Those that hate white people, I pray to god that you find help.
I'm resurrecting this thread with a segment that appeared on an Australian radio station recently.
The gist of it was that someone who booked some posh accommodation for a summer holiday splurge discovered that there were there cameras distributed throughout the building including living areas. They went around covering the cameras and quickly got told to uncover them! Apparently this was in violation of AirB&B's terms of service as the cameras were not disclosed in the advertisement. The second part of the segment was a security expert who had two take-home points that any camera is likely to need access to power and network (so powering down devices you are not using such as coffee machines and clock radios helps, as does shutting down the router if you can live without it) and that the best way to find cameras is to use your phone's flashlight function and shine it into suspicious spots such as devices and vents- a lens shall likely shine back and reveal itself.

Friends.
I recently joined this group because I do enjoy my coffee in the morning and always love being nude when ever and where ever I can.
Going over past discussions I stopped to read about Spying Coffee Makers. I found it rather interesting how quickly the simple coffee pot erupted into battle of and between two very entrenched and, may I say it, bitter rivalries. Two arch enemies of two opposing tribes began showing their bitter hatred for one another.
In order to try to calm ocean of ill will, I'd like to point out a few simple facts.
In this election year of 2024, we may need to think about these facts more often and soften our view point toward those who think differently from us.
In all aspects of life, be it religion, entertainment, medicine,politics, food, fashion, life styles, etc., people will believe what they want to believe and see what they want to see. This doesn't make them bad people but are just people who don't see things in the same way as we see them. Unless the people are professing or encouraging evil deeds, we shouldn't hate them for their beliefs, but have respect for the person.
If there wasn't so much hatred and vitriol it might be possible to have rational discussions with those who don't see things the way we see them and possibly bring them to our way of thinking.
If we'd like to bring about this type of change, it doesn't start with changing our adversaries. It starts with changing our selves. We don't have to change our opinions about certain issues. We just have to change our opinion of the good folks who don't share the ideals we believe in.
Here is a simple example of what I am talking about.
As nudists we know that every one should join our world of nudism. Many textiles believe that we are all sexual perverts and they have a right to that opinion. We should not hate them for their view but to respect them and try to have them explain why they see things as they do. We will often find that their beliefs are not based on facts, but only on erroneous beliefs. You now have something to work on to bring them to your way of thinking.
Remember the big key is respect.
