Damn that’s a wild ass story. I just finished reading Michael Connelly’s The Proving Ground which touches on the topic of liability when it AI encourages crimes. I thought the story was a theoretical scenario that could maybe happen in the future. Didn’t realize this shit was already happening - and even more fantastical that the scenario in fiction!
Yeah that’s probably a good way to think of it. She did love Chernobyl - but that might be because it was a modern retelling of a historical event. Same way that people love Stranger Things for the nostalgia, but aren’t exactly going back and rewatching shows filmed in the 80s.
Came here to recommend Mr Robot as well. The ending of the series was perfectly planned, so it loops around perfectly to the beginning of the series. It was a nice contrast to something like Game of Thrones, where they clearly had no good ending planned and just rushed through to get something done.
I remember watching the end of Mr Robot and going “holy shit.”
I watched The Wire for the first time a few months ago. My wife couldn’t get past the first couple episodes since it’s a little dated, but I am glad I stuck with it because that show was freaking phenomenal.
As a registered Republican woman from Texas with five children and two dogs, let me just say that I am astonished!
Glad to hear you’re cancer free! My father in law just had colon cancer removed a few days ago and we’re awaiting the biopsy results. Seriously: get checked, people!
That guy was super well spoken and had a good message. I’m surprised I hadn’t heard of him before. Always nice to see the Streisand Effect in action!
“It’s important to differentiate between clinical addiction and problematic use,” he added.
“I’m sure I’ve said that I’ve been addicted to a Netflix show when I binged it really late one night, but I don’t think it’s the same thing as clinical addiction.”
Yeah, I dunno what article that dude read. Or didn’t read, apparently.
Turns out, they were just using this meme as their requirements document.
Lol my kids did the same thing. Kinda proud of those lil hooligans.
Yeah everyone really rallies around a president when the country is attacked. Can’t help but feel like it’s why Trump is picking fights constantly. I’m sure he would love nothing more than to have Iran or another country to kill some US civilians.
Kind of refreshing to see Trump is the only president to never have a positive approval rating.
Yeah their news articles try not to be as blatantly pure propaganda as their TV programming, but they still omit a lot of information to subtlety frame stories in their favor.
You supposed be up cookin breakfast for somebody
We like to shit on Tik Tok, but you’re right that their reach is absolutely massive. Recently when Democrats were writing op eds and taking out ads saying that troops should ignore illegal orders, a high ranking member of the military (I forget who) commented that the messaging was ineffective because troops almost universally get their “news” through Tik Tok.
For the life of me I cannot see why training requirements violate the 2A.
I think in a perfect world, we should have some sort of impartial training. In the world we live in, I wouldn’t trust Trump’s administration to set the training requirements. I’m sure step 1 would involve turning over your social media accounts.
Yeah that comment bugged me. Was very dismissive like “oh he’s young and thought he was on the right side.”
I bet many more didn’t even get reported as murders in the first place. There are probably a shit load of cases from back in the day with 1950s wives poisoning their husbands or some shit that just got chalked up to heart attacks.
“I’ll take the sticker off my pass after Trump takes his name off the Kennedy Center.”
Well played
Oof that noise. That marine was a bad ass though. I’d be crying like a lil bitch if someone snapped my arm like that.
