Just as the guy dodging the moose, his little dog is jumping to attack it. Little dogs are hardcore

Yes. So what?

In universe? I wouldn’t say that Batman is anti corporate espionage. He’s constantly breaking the law, just with a few caveats (no killing, not to victimize innocent people, etc). He’d probably tacitly support, or at least not pursue quite so vigorously, competent vigilanties who steal records for publication, intimidate crooked CEOs, and destroy company infrastructure.

Turns out that eliminating 70% of all viable workers from employability creates job security for boring, cis men.

Tbh, the hate is largely good old fashioned bullying. The rumors of cheating have been completely disproven. She qualified, she knew she was unlikely to win. She’s almost 20 years older than her oldest opponent and this was perhaps her first time competing at that level. Her performance had good parts.

I think the gleeful bullying is disgusting. Fucking armchair critics.

Edit: there are specific moves, but it’s largely improvisational. you are judged comparatively against the other b-boy. If you watch the full set the commentators will call them out. her full set

The Internet just likes to bully people.

BofA is totally worth keeping around

Exposure to violence is bad. Fostering a society where violence is commonplace, bad. Exporting violence to places and people unseen, all bad.

but I’m not really sure that illegal or extra-judicial killings are always wrong. Sometimes evil people are protected or above the law. If a Russian citizen shot Vladimir Putin dead tomorrow, I’d be happy with it. I’d be happy to see a sandy hook parent kill Alex Jones, if they could do it without consequence.

It’s not that I believe that murder should be legal, Nor do I believe in capital punishment. Institutional violence is bad for the reasons I listed earlier. But, a lone gunman shooting an evil man is not institutionalized violence.

Compression artifacts plus beautiful bone structure, probably.

Bad ai generated cat memes from a spam account! Nice!

In a perfect world, men like me would not exist, but this is not a perfect world.

This would be valuable context for journalist to include, if true. I personally know someone who died via assisted suicide. She had terminal cancer, and went through a very thorough vetting and consultation before undergoing the process. If this person was not afforded such care, that would terrible.

Maybe he was just VERY bad at his job?

I recently went through a 8 day power outage from hurricane Milton.

I bought an Anker f2000. It retails new for ~$2000. Even that can only power my fridge for maybe 23 hours.

I don’t own one, but I might recommend these coolers from Anker instead. I’d buy one if I had the space. link to refurbished unit

It last 42 hours on battery, can be charged via the car or solar, goes down to freezer temps, and the battery is detachable and can be used to charge your devices. It would be much easier to keep essentials cold for a week using this, even if it’s small, and it would be great for car camping.

The bizarre thing about this case is that no reporting outlet seems to explain why anyone was arrested. Assisted suicide is legal in the country under these circumstances.

Red flags for sure, but whenever I see stuff like this, I do wish that sex and gender could just not exist for a while. Like, wouldn’t it be cool if this dude and his new buddy could just play some gosh darn pickle ball without the subtext that he has to be cheating on his wife?

Here is a direct quote from openai:

“In addition to our efforts to direct people to reliable sources of information, we also worked to ensure ChatGPT did not express political preferences or recommend candidates even when asked explicitly.”

It’s not a conspiracy. It was explicitly thier policy not to have the ai discuss these subjects in meaningful detail leading up to the election, even when the facts were not up for debate. Everyone using gpt during that period of time was unlikely to receive meaningful information on anything Trump related, such as the legitimacy of Biden’s election. I know because I tried.

This is ostentatiously there to protect voters from fake news. I’m sure it does in some cases, but I’m sure China would say the same thing.

I’m not pro China, I’m suggesting that every country engages in these shenanigans.

Edit it is obvious that a 100 billion dollar company like openai with it’s multude of partnerships with news companies could have made gpt communicate accurate and genuinely critical news regarding Trump, but that would be bad for business.

Perhaps now it is, but leading up to the election, I found gpt would outright refuse to discuss Trump in voice mode. Meta ai too. It was very frustrating. It would start, and then respond with something like, “I’m not able to talk about that, yet.”

https://www.wired.com/story/google-and-microsofts-chatbots-refuse-election-questions/

There are plenty of examples of Ai either refusing to discuss subjects of the elections (I remember meta ai basically just saying “I’m learning how to respond to these questions.” Or in the above case, just hand waving away clear issues of wrong doing.

Chat gpt advanced voice mode would constantly activate its guardrails when asked about trump or “politically charged” topics.

Incidentally, no Western ai would make a statement on Donald Trump’s crimes leading up to the election. Ai propaganda is a serious issue. In China the government enforces it, in America, billionaires.
