Charlie Kirk himself called for the execution of the president, nobody seemed to care about that either

@mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca can you please link to a source for this? I gather Charlie Kirk had said many unsavory things, but this is the first I’m reading that he called for executing the president. I tried searching the internet, but the top articles I read did not mention anything about this (or if they did, I missed it).

For example, this article from thenation.com and this article from snopes.com.

Damn.

Because they’re dishonest; unfortunately, it’s very effective in shutting down public conversations about what’s happening over there.

I do kind of relish the images, though. Picture’s worth a thousand words and all. But it’s great to have that choice.

Yes and no. Sometimes a company or organization can serve as a force for good. That said, absolutely a double edged sword. It’s not fair to expect private businesses and organizations to be held hostage by scummy legislators. At the end of the day, no one is entitled to a business’s or organization’s services, so… Don’t want to chase businesses and organizations away? Don’t pass shitty legislation.

Excerpt from the article:

The researchers… call their approach “WhoFi”, as described in a preprint paper titled, “WhoFi: Deep Person Re-Identification via Wi-Fi Channel Signal Encoding.”

Who are you, really?

Re-identification, the researchers explain, is a common challenge in video surveillance. It’s not always clear when a subject captured on video is the same person recorded at another time and/or place.

Re-identification doesn’t necessarily reveal a person’s identity. Instead, it is just an assertion that the same surveilled subject appears in different settings. In video surveillance, this might be done by matching the subject’s clothes or other distinct features in different recordings. But that’s not always possible.

The author asserts that re-identification doesn’t necessarily reveal a person’s identity, although I suppose this is similar to how a single fingerprint or DNA sample doesn’t necessarily reveal a person’s identity, right up until somebody can connect your fingerprint to your identity, say, by correlating your location with other tracking methods or something.
