I would immediately vote for this if they managed to get it on as a ballot initiative. Voting in a democracy is a right, not a privilege.

Otherwise known as: boomers wanting to downsize are making a whole bunch of cash with which to do it and are finally paying a fair portion of their net worth.


It is entirely natural to want to not die. It’s pretty unfair to blame the victim (even a victim guilty of a terrible crime) for the suffering caused by a process they didn’t consent to.


IIRC 2 and 3 (and possibly 4) were filmed together.


I see season 1-9 packs on both IPT and TL.


To be fair that’s a pretty recent development. Jellyfin apps for smart tvs are only just becoming stable enough for real use. Plex was the only option for a long time.


People have actually become more unhinged: https://www.iata.org/en/pressroom/2023-releases/2023-06-04-02/


S1m0ne 2: crypto boogaloo


Digital assistants are good for timers, turning on smart lights, and sometimes playing music. None of those things require a large language model to spit random text back at me.


A large portion of people on one side are looking to bring about a world ending apocalypse so they can be raptured. American evangelicals don’t care about the world, and are ideologically incapable of civil debate and compromise. When your side is god and the other side is the devil you can’t possibly meet in the middle.


The headline gives a bad first impression but I think the text itself has an interesting point. As it stands right now (in the US) the AI gatekeepers can’t copyright any of their output. So each and every piece of generated media is one more piece added to the public domain pile. Most of it is worthless but if there’s anything worth building on someone or someones can do that.


What if she works hard and gets promoted?
The justice system will have actually succeeded in rehabilitating someone.


I’m the only one on my instance and I’m talking to you.


This is probably related to NY recently changing their rules regarding civil suits for sexual assault. The same change that prompted the Trump case.
I’m sure for a 17 year old in 2003, going after someone so wealthy and powerful seemed insurmountable. But the rule change seems to be allowing some victims to finally get some form of resitution.


Witcher 3 is probably up your alley.


I put a decent amount of time into shadow of mordor but didn’t finish the story. The combat is fun and dynamic, there’s lots of vertical traversal, assaulting strongholds is pretty cool. The nemesis system is silly but fun, it adds a lot of personality.


City improves on a lot of the batman mechanics and the variety of enemies goes up. I think it’s the better of the two.
However, it is a very different game, moving from a metroidvania inspired small locale to a big open world. If you don’t like traversing/exploring open worlds you might find it to be a downgrade. If you do, it’s a blast and moving around the city is an absolute joy.


Here we see parts 2 and 6 of the narcissist prayer:


The concept is that you don’t have to politely sit quietly and listen while someone spouts hate. You are empowered and encouraged to make it stop. That doesn’t necessarily involve physical violence but it should remind you that hate can weaponize the rules of polite society and you don’t have help.
While that may be true in many cases, it is important to remember that straight people are perfectly capable of being hateful, homophobic monsters. Placing all the blame of LGBT hate on LGBT people, openly or not, isn’t nearly the whole story.
