    Jo, Alexa, DHS, even the fucking toaster is all up in your shit.

    Is it worth it?

      OTOH, “you replicate randomly in uncontrolled environments”…sounds pretty sexy right there, lots more fun than your spontaneous shape-shifting there Jo, but your Naomi version does look pretty hot.

        Combine “randomly shifting chick” to “replicate randomly in uncontrolled environments”, and it gets even sexier. IMHO, of course.

      • October 31, 2018 at 12:32 pm

        Yeah, variety/spice and all that. Hard to get past that looking hot does not transfer to being hot though, with a specified temp of what was it minus something?

        Takes all the starch out of my little soldier. ;(

    So much paranoia, so many reasons for it. I suspect I don’t know enough to be a paranoid as I should be.

        There is no relationship between an individual’s level of paranoia and the likelihood that someone seeks to do them harm. So long as it is not to the level where it forces one to sit in a corner looking out for trouble, paranoia is actually survival positive. Nothing wrong with having a good situational awareness.

    Alexa, Siri, Onstar, GPS – eeeewwww!

    I only want a GPS telling some po-po where I am if I’m on a hike and a coyote is following me, looking for food. They’re everywhere/ Worse than ants.

      Of course those entities exist only as low-level AI and direct portals to whomever/whatever NaomiJo refers when she says she only records what is specified. Who/what is it? And what does it really want?

      I don’t even use the voice prompts on my GPS (didn’t do it even when I COULD hear it). I mount it where I can easily see it and glance at it every once in a while. Now if I could only get the display reversed left -to-right I could use it as a head-up-display like the one which displays speed, RPM and fuel state.

      Oh, and, Miss D, a .22LR pistol is inexpensive, light and able to put paid to a coyote easily. Could also scare off a two-legged varment if needed. Remember, when seconds count (as in the coyote scenario), the police are just minutes away.

        Granted, Old Codger, but if I shoot a coyote I still have to report it to DNR, so they can test it for rabies. I don’t know if that applies to the 2-legged coyotes, but – well…. 🙂

    One reason I don’t worry about those “you’ve been watching pron and I’ve got a recording of it” extortion spam emails is that there are no recording devices in range of my computers.

    “To find out who your true masters are, figure out who you can’t speak against.” Some smart guy said this. Works in all situations.

    On another front, those DBD’ers living in Texas and the other border states, since the .Gov has decided not to confront and repel the invaders, prepare to defend yourselves. You are the final recourse to the security of a free state.

    “.Gov has decided not to confront and repel the invaders,”

    Fuck when did they decide that?

    Sure seems like a disconnect from this:

      “.Gov has decided not to confront and repel the invaders,”

      Apparently, some congress critter has announced that using the Armed Forces to protect the border violates “posse comitatus” since turning back the “caravan ” (ravening hoard? invading army?) is a law enforcement function and thus verboten to the Army. Anybody sanguine about whether a declared state of emergency would eliminate that restriction?

      • October 31, 2018 at 2:20 pm

        Repelling foreign attack and invasion is arguably the *only* functions of our standing Army,,.they don’t want to go all constitutional on this prez.

        I’d like to ask the Progtards and Congress Critters, etc, to pick who in their family/friends they are willing to have killed by any number of the invaders. Who must die from an unknown pathogen that We as American Citizens do not have any type of immunity to fight against and keep US from getting sick or dying.

      • October 31, 2018 at 5:44 pm
        Delilah T

        That’s incorrect. Posse Comitatus applies to the use of military force against US citizens.

        Those marching north are invaders, and not, unless proven otherwise, US Citizens, and therefore it does not apply to them.

        It’s more likely that since some are already breaking down and going back to Honduras and others are refusing job offers from the Mexican government, and/or asylum in Mexico’s southern states, the rest will come to an abrupt halt at the US border and that will be it.

        Should be more of those interesting times for us to view.

    Actually there is a way for those troops to work against the invasion.
    The stand on the _Mexican_ side of the border to do the dirty work.
    If the Federales show up, we can offer to help _them_ enforce _their_ border.
    We simply give them an offer they cannot refuse.
