This is a disaster for the human race and I’ve really lost patience with the useless morons who can’t see that. An AI video chat that passes for human has no necessary legitimate applications. It will be used to scam old people out of their life savings. Lonely, mentally vulnerable people are going to form romantic attachments to people who aren’t real. Isolation will increase. Mental illness will skyrocket even more than it already has. Kids in grade school will have AI boyfriends and girlfriends. All of this will happen. And worse things we can’t even conceive at this point. People are already forming unhealthy emotional attachments to text-based LLMs. Once there’s an audio and visual component, it’s over. Millions of brains will be broken irreparably.

The benefits of this technology, whatever they are exactly, are so vastly outweighed by the societal catastrophe it will cause, and is already causing, that you can’t even measure the two categories on the same scale. But at least this is the best thing that ever happened to third world scammers. So if you’re in that community, congratulations.

@ClownWorld Nobody talks about Christa’s family. The whole thing is revolting. They can’t kill her and they take her to the hospital to revive her so they can try to kill her again. Just macabre.

The Minneapolis police have released footage of the officer involved shooting earlier this month when officers responded to a "mass shooting" in an apartment complex that left 2 dead and 6 wounded.

Carlton Johnson II reportedly shot multiple people after being told he was being evicted.

Police then responded and, as Mr. Johnson rounded a corner and oriented his handgun at them, performed an impromptu 5.56 ballistics test on his torso with their HUXWRX suppressor equipped short barrel AR15 rifles.

The ballistic test was successful and Mr. Johnson died from the injection of lead and copper at ~2,500 FPS, saving taxpayers millions of dollars.

Train accordingly...

Wyoming hanged Tom Horn in 1903 on a machine specifically designed so that no human being would have to feel responsible for killing him.

Which, given what Tom Horn did for a living, is about as tidy as history ever gets.

He was born in Missouri in 1860 and left home at sixteen. He ended up in Arizona working for the Army as a packer, scout and interpreter under the chief of scouts Al Sieber during the Apache campaigns, and he was with the column that brought Geronimo in. He also won a steer roping championship out there. Years later he wrote an autobiography that inflated most of it considerably, which was standard for the genre.

In the early 1890s he worked for the Pinkerton agency out of Denver, running down train robbers. He was extremely good at the tracking part. He was reportedly much less interested in the part where you bring a man in alive.

Then he went north to Wyoming and hired on with the big cattle outfits as a stock detective.

The job title was a formality. What the cattlemen were paying for was for suspected rustlers to stop existing, and Horn delivered that with a rifle, at long range, frequently from a couple hundred yards, with nobody around to see it. Historians credit him with the 1900 killings of Matt Rash and Isom Dart in Brown's Park and suspect him in several others.

The line most often attributed to him is, "Killing men is my specialty. I look on it as a business proposition, and I think I have a corner on the market." Whether he actually said it is argued about. It was his reputation regardless, and he did nothing to discourage it.

Then on July 18, 1901, a 14 year old boy named Willie Nickell was shot dead by a gate at Iron Mountain.

Willie was big for his age, and he was wearing his father's coat and hat. His father, Kels Nickell, was running sheep in cattle country and was in a poisonous feud with his neighbors. Nearly everyone who has looked at it since has reached the same conclusion, which is that whoever fired thought he was shooting the father.

Six months later, a deputy US marshal named Joe LeFors got Horn into an office in Cheyenne to talk about a job in Montana. He got Horn drinking. He flattered him, and let him brag, and kept nudging.

Behind a door left open a crack in the next room sat a deputy and a court stenographer named Charles Ohnhaus, writing down every word.

Somewhere in that transcript is the sentence, "It was the best shot that I ever made and the dirtiest trick I ever done."

That was the case. Everything else the prosecution had was circumstantial. He was tried in an election year, in a state that had finally had enough of cattle barons buying outcomes, and the jury convicted him.

Here is the complicated part. Most historians who have gone back through the evidence now believe Tom Horn probably did not kill Willie Nickell. There were other suspects with better motive and better opportunity. The physical case was weak, and the confession was a drunk man performing for a lawman who was steering the conversation.

He had certainly killed people. He was very likely hanged for the wrong one.

He got out of the jail in August 1903 with a pistol taken off a guard, and then could not figure out how the pistol worked. A man on the street who happened to know that model took him back into custody.

So on November 20, 1903, one day short of his 43rd birthday, they walked him out to the gallows in Cheyenne.

That gallows had been built by a local architect named James Julian. Julian had come through the Civil War, and he had thought a long time about what it does to a man to be the one personally responsible for killing another. So he engineered the person out of it.

The condemned man stood on the trapdoor. His own weight tipped a lever that opened a valve on a water tank. The water ran out of the tank into a pan below, and as it drained the balance shifted, and when enough had run the mechanism pulled the bolt and the floor opened.

Nobody pulled a lever. Nobody gave a signal. The man walked onto the platform, started the clock with his own body, and then stood there listening to water run.

For Tom Horn it took about 35 seconds.

A newspaper of the day described the machine as a device that simply compelled the condemned to commit suicide.

Tom Horn had spent his career being the instrument that wealthy men used so that they would never have to be the ones who pulled the trigger.

Wyoming killed him with a machine built on exactly the same idea.
