It appears to be part of the "we can't trust anything from China" project. There do appear to be exceptions for low volume sellers.

Am I wrong in interpreting this as just pushing the problem (divergence between International Atomic Time and the rotational speed of the earth) 100 years in the future?

It's as if this whole cloud thing is BS and we should stop putting our stuff on other people's computers.

And give an AI in the DC targeting control. And why not some humanoid armed guards also under AI control? It'll just expand from there until we are under full corporate military occupation.

People who want to ensure a better future for future people might have fewer kids. Overpopulation is real.

"The current meta-optic mirror supports monochrome operation."

I would love monochromatic vector(not raster) HUD in my glasses. I could play the original Asteroids. Bah, bah, bah bah. Pew, pew!

Maybe you don't read the news so I'll fill you in: the "Americans" think they own the Americas (Monroe Doctrine, etc, etc). My statement is a mild rejection of this idea. The USA needs to be rejected in all it's imperial actions and ideas. And more generally any nation that seeks empire over others should be rejected and isolated.

Humans sometimes need an outlet for venting anger and frustration. I guess AI is not the best ""person"" in this case.

Let's all keep relying on real people when we need to talk to someone. At least they aren't all programmed to turn you in when you think wrong thoughts.
