EnochWalked: "Platforms would not be allowed to compel users to provide government-issued identity documents including passports or driver’s licenses, nor could they demand digital identification through a government system." So will they use banks instead? Nov 27, 2024 5:54:58 GMT -6
EnochWalked: theconversation.com/cop29-climate-change-could-kill-millions-and-world-leaders-must-work-to-limit-fatalities-244024 "A 2 [degrees] C temperature rise equates to about a billion prematurely dead people over the next century." Nov 27, 2024 7:57:18 GMT -6
EnochWalked: news.un.org/en/story/2024/11/1157416 "Rich nations pledged to contribute at least $300 billion annually". 1 billion people over 100 years is 10 million per year, but rich countries are paying $300 bn per year? That's $30k per life. Pieces of silver? Nov 27, 2024 8:04:02 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.newsweek.com/russia-ruble-dollar-currency-economy-1992332 "the ruble, has plunged to its lowest rate against the U.S. dollar since the start of [the war]". "Last month, inflation was 8.5 percent, more than twice the ... Central Bank's target" Nov 27, 2024 12:07:16 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/trump-mexico-drug-cartels-military-invade-1235183177/ '“How much should we invade Mexico?” says a senior Trump transition member. “That is the question.”' Perhaps China will offer to protect Mexico. Nov 27, 2024 12:09:47 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.ccn.com/news/technology/x-payments-elon-musk-reveals-button-account/ "X Payments on the Way? Elon Musk Reveals ‘$’ Button on an Account". X marks the spot? Having an X account will be a requirement for joining his DOGE, then for paying taxes? Nov 27, 2024 13:04:29 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/ben-gvir-touts-his-easing-of-limits-on-jewish-prayer-at-temple-mount/ '"I changed the policy and I am proud of it," he says.' Perhaps he is trying to make a name for himself, to replace Netanyahu at elections? Nov 27, 2024 16:24:19 GMT -6
EnochWalked: starwalk.space/en/news/t-coronae-borealis-nova-star-exploding "One forecast, based on a dimming in March 2023 and a comparison with a similar event before the 1946 outburst, predicted the nova would occur between May and early September 2024." Nov 27, 2024 16:28:05 GMT -6
EnochWalked: "Another prediction, also using the dimming and brightening pattern seen around the 1946 nova event, suggests mid-2025 as the most likely time". It seems that God is telling those looking for a sign that they have to be a little more patient. Nov 27, 2024 16:29:10 GMT -6
EnochWalked: newrepublic.com/post/188885/house-republicans-majority-historically-small "Those resignations would deflate the GOP’s majority to 217–215." So the two sides would flank the number 216 = 6 x 6 x 6. "that has not been the case in 100-plus years." Nov 28, 2024 4:25:37 GMT -6
EnochWalked: kyivindependent.com/europe-in-actual-war-with-russia-former-uk-intelligence-chief-says/ 'Europe is not currently in "a pre-war" situation, but in "an actual war" against Russia, former MI6 head Richard Dearlove told Sky News on Nov. 27.' World war? Nov 28, 2024 4:29:29 GMT -6
EnochWalked: deepmind.google/public-policy/ai-for-science/ "A quiet revolution is brewing in labs around the world, where scientists’ use of AI is growing exponentially. 1 in 3 postdocs now use large language models [for] literature reviews, coding, & editing" Nov 28, 2024 10:09:11 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.chron.com/culture/religion/article/ken-paxton-austin-church-lawsuit-19946766.php "Ken Paxton vows to shut down Texas church's homeless ministry in new suit". (Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you?') Nov 29, 2024 3:15:40 GMT -6
EnochWalked: apnews.com/article/artificial-intelligence-chatbot-jesus-lucerne-catholic-66268027fbcf4b48972d1d62541f0b16 "‘AI Jesus’ avatar tests man’s faith in machines and the divine" Nov 29, 2024 7:59:38 GMT -6
EnochWalked: Am I mistaken in thinking that the news is talking about AI a lot more recently than, say, 5 years ago? I don't think it is just hype, I think it is starting to affect global power dynamics, e.g. the economy, war, the media, relationships, and religions. Nov 29, 2024 8:02:37 GMT -6
EnochWalked: www.theguardian.com/world/2024/nov/28/new-zealand-covid-19-inquiry-vaccine-mandates-reasonable "New Zealand Covid inquiry finds vaccine mandates were ‘reasonable’". It was a rehearsal for the Mark, so that the precedents are set and plans in place. Nov 29, 2024 11:02:36 GMT -6
EnochWalked: theprogressplaybook.com/2024/11/28/chinas-ev-boom-set-to-push-gasoline-demand-off-a-cliff "Chinese sales of electric vehicles and hybrids have reached a tipping point this year" "They’ve accounted for more than 50% of retail passenger vehicle sales" Nov 29, 2024 11:04:32 GMT -6
EnochWalked: The chart in the article is remarkable. Internal combustion engine vehicles were nearly 100% of sales in 2019/2020, but in the last 4 years the sales have dropped to 50%. Another 4 years and it could be zero. How will the Saudis fund their economy? Nov 29, 2024 11:07:03 GMT -6
EnochWalked: MBS knows that by 2030, his country could look like Syria, with lots of angry extremist unemployed men taking up arms in a civil war. Assad has the advantage of hosting a Russian base, otherwise he would have suffered the same fate as Saddam or Gaddafi. Nov 29, 2024 11:12:41 GMT -6
EnochWalked: That's why MBS is trying to diversify his country's economy, including investing trillions into infrastructure projects that he hopes will attract people to visit his oppressive sand-covered Islamic dictatorship. Peace with Israel would be good PR for him. Nov 29, 2024 11:14:30 GMT -6
