I told you I might get flaky....
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

The economy is good for people owning loads of stocks - for everyone else, the economy sucks.
I don't do stocks. But here.....
Business is good for self storage & construction lending (what I do).
It's even better for building contractors & workers.

Why is that ? What changed ? (Assuming something changed under Trump)
One thing I noticed....
Federal lending restrictions eased up over the last decade,
which enabled pent up construction demand to be met.

Who or what is "DJ"?

I remember going to see a Schwarzenegger movie (think it was The Running Man) back in the early 90s with a friend of mine who was involved in software development, and when they showed one of the early scenes where the bad guys completely fabricate a video of Arnold's character committing a war crime, my friend said something like, "Yup, we're not far from that".
Well, we crypto-fiends are doing pretty darn good too.
Reminds me, haven't checked my portfolio in a cpl of hours . . .
WAIT, WHAT???!?!?
um, never mind.
Oh....Donald Jump?
Anyway, the singular boost Trump gave to
the economy was not starting any wars.
Other than that, I'd have to give it much
more thought.

We are fully there now. I meant to post a vid I watched about the new developments with text to visuals plus speech, but have temporarily lost it. I’ll see if I can find it.
There is a legal requirement for a digital watermark indicating it is synthetic.
I’m sure everyone will respect that

Someone posted a thread about the software ("face-something"?)in here somewhere a few weeks ago, along with some examples. My reaction: "Crazy, creepy, and cool!".
Kind of how I feel about the era we're in overall.

I think we will soon see a whole new class of mental illness, because of the impossibility of knowing whether or not what we are seeing is real.
It has been established that the gaslighting in narcissistic partner abuse causes pathological changes to brain tissue.
Or it'll help us all become a bit more open-minded by helping us realize we never could.
Not a bit surprised.

Now that is optimism !
I met an amazing scientist-musician-philosopher, Dr Manfred Clynes, in the early 90s.
He’s the man who coined the term cyborg. He gave me a collection of his monographs, including one which was a warning about this very thing.
One of his (many) areas of study was what he called sentic forms.
It is too much to define properly in a post, (I should make a thread about it) but the implications were that synthetic entities can be programmed to express what appear to be authentic human emotions.
He was concerned that when this found its way into the mainstream, humans would no longer be able to trust primordial instincts which allow us to interpret the emotional component of communication, and that this would lead to a kind of derangement.
Thirty years later....
Eye witness testimony can even shatter legitimate alibis.
We have a witness that claims she saw you on the street outside the victims apartment, even if you have friends that claim you were out of town that weekend. It doesn't have to be a good witness, just one that can throw doubt on a suspects claims.
You mean physical evidence? Testimony is “real” evidence.
Our penal trials do not have juries...but the Court of Assizes has 2 judges and 6 lay people.
