Ewwwww

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

I have a standard vacuum. I spend about 10 minutes a day vacuuming. Miele has no telemetry whatsoever lol

“If only women could be young tight assed boys” thought the Republican lawmakers.

A fun reminder that during the pandemic, before AI, there was a backlog in new cars because all the crucial chips were unavailable due to an increase in bullshit like wifi enabled toasters.

It has nothing to do with AI. Consumers are asking for this shit and companies are delivering.

Meh it’s all semantics. I consider myself middle class and I make almost 200$k a year. I have more in common with the homeless guy at the go train station than I do with the CIO of my company.

I wish more people were this way. It’s why I still prefer taking public transit. It grounds me. I’d rather be around people struggling to get by than those who have never known what it’s like to put hotdogs in your mac & cheese.

Edit - and to people going I’m rich. Im divorced and have 3 kids of which 2 are on the spectrum. I am living comfortably but if I lost my job I’m in the same boat or worse than some of you. I live modestly and do more than anyone may think to support as many people as I can.

Americans are just learning what us lower middle class families have been doing for decades already?

Welcome to the wonderful world of potlucks where aunt Nancy brings the same disgusting dry ham every year but it’s ok because uncle Mark brings the same potato casserole which slaps.

Ms has different releases for Europe due to legal requirements

This is why you have no ads

Ok is this legit if so Roflcopter

On point 1. Every time stuff like this comes up in policy discussions there is pushback maybe because the narrative is too vague I don’t know. The gist is the requirement for named users online not aliases, or a way to tie those aliases easily to named users if required.

People don’t like this. I would argue it’s too late to get a consensus and stuff like Facebook tying your phone and name to an account is needed.

The nuance is how companies and governments use that information and in that we continue to fail hard. My name and my number is my data to decide how to share NOT for Facebook or anyone else.

Penny arcade provided decades ago the internet anonymity problem and it’s growing alarmingly fast.

We all are or have been that person to yell shitcock! at times.

Edit - there’s a larger issue at play too that our systems have not caught up with globalization. Facebook is multinational how does any one government hold them to account? I’d argue our governments around the world are stuck in 19th century governance styles while the world is rapidly moving to the 22nd century.

It’s gonna get far worse before it gets better IMHO.

It’s like I’ve said before. Climate change won’t be an issue until a city like New York is buried by the ocean. Those in power need to feel the pain whereas right now all we are getting is lip service or the bare minimum at best.

I don’t know what the women saw in him.

I can fix him mixed with the fact that he probably broke the bed when dicking them down.

Yes I would like what he’s having please

I haven’t seen it mentioned and granted I’ve not played it but I’ve watched both be played and Blasphemy 1 and 2 seems really, really good.

Of course! I’m GenX and I use it at work and home as well for a variety of purposes but do I **need ** it? Does anyone **need ** it?

I was taking my kids to the dentist yesterday and was listening to the radio with them.

It’s anecdotal and a small sample size but the only people talking about AI are journalists and money men.

I work in IT and the consensus is it is a valuable tool but it really isn’t taking anyone’s job.

For my kids and those their age and younger (15) the consensus is AI can fuck off and it’s responsible for polluting their social media with crap.

Tl;Dr - the only people pushing AI are the money men and the policy makers. No one wants this.

Anecdotal but my ignorant ass has had conversations with my friends that “so god if I find out my son is gay I will love him but please for the love of God let him pitch.”

It’s ok he’s white

Nope its in CoM I’d need to watch it again.

This was by far and large the best throwaway gag that I’m sure many people missed in “Children of Men”. There’s a shot near the beginning in the dystopian city and there’s a pig shaped balloon floating in the sky. I’m not sure how many people caught it when the saw the movie.
