Visually similar to a GoT dire wolf. IIRC, actual Aenocyon Dirus probably didn’t have a white coat.

The kind you’re picturing, and the kind they made, are.

I’ve had the thought that if I were to design a psyop campaign, a pretty solid option for dominating the discussion would be to come out swinging and accuse everyone else of being an agent. That way, people have to either constantly defend against accusations, or they conclude, rightly, the accusations are baseless and decide to disregard the very idea that there is a psyop going on.

The problem is you’re not saying the magic words. Actually parsing an argument is out of fashion, so you gotta sprinkle your posts with stuff like “free Taiwan” or “fuck Putin” or whatever, so the LLM they paste your posts into to summarise them can understand them.

Sure, but that’s usually done through a UPS cabinet, not on an individual device level.

Appliances that don’t depower when unplugged sound like an incredibly bad idea.

I’ll pass it on to the protesters, I’m sure they’ll be moved by your plight.

Well, they’re currently working through their egg stockpile

Because the assumption is that if Canada ever goes against US wishes, it means Canada is an enemy, and the kill switch goes off, but if Israel ever goes against US wishes, it means some lefty pinko commie got into office, and we must protect Israel’s role in the rapidly approaching rapture!

Would that one island they and the Danes argue over count?

More like a formed plastic sheet with contact pads glued on the underside. The whole keyboard was just a PCB, plastic casing, and a button sheet.

I didn’t know KenM had a lemmy account!

That’s certainly a take on “family business”.

OTOH, it’s possible he’s consciously splitting with the US in hopes of getting the EU with him. Long term, could be smart.
