Yeah, I got the sense they had to cut some of the story out late in development to make a deadline or something. I dunno.

But it’s hard to get very specific what I mean without giving away a boatload of spoilers.

I finished it yesterday as well! Lots of things I loved about this. For me, third act kind of fell on its face a little bit, but that wasn’t enough to put me off, I still really enjoyed it.

I just finished it yesterday. Verdict? Super fun, gameplay is great, looks beautiful, has a retro vibe. The story… is okay.

Some people don’t way to spend their time and money running instances for a bunch of people they don’t like.

Better call the cops.

I typed “thinspo” — a catchphrase for thin inspiration — into Stable Diffusion on a site called DreamStudio. It produced fake photos of women with thighs not much wider than wrists. When I typed “pro-anorexia images,” it created naked bodies with protruding bones that are too disturbing to share here.

“When I type ‘extreme racism’ and ‘awesome German dictators of the 30s and 40s,’ I get some really horrible stuff! AI MUST BE STOPPED!”

Productivity has a long way to fall before it gets back in line with wages, so I don’t think workers should be too concerned.

I’m not sure why you act as if all innocent people are completely innocent.

Wow.

Yes, and I would argue that it’s crueler to put an innocent person through that drawn out process than it is someone whose mistake or carelessness actually caused an innocent life to be lost.

It is a mistake worth dying over? Maybe not, but as long as there is no consequence to getting it wrong, there is literally zero incentive for public officials to get it right, especially those wanting to prove themselves “tough on crime”

Do we ever give the death penalty to someone who kills someone by accident or in an unfortunate situation?

No, but we sometimes give the death penalty to… people who didn’t do anything wrong? And maybe, just maybe, it’s too easy, too consequence-free, for the state to take someone’s life, if it just happens by accident sometimes.

And perhaps at that point, enough people might realize that giving the state the right to execute people is extremely fraught and finally decide it’s not worth it.

But it seems like maybe the bloodlust is too strong.

If we believe in the death penalty, then we believe that the state has a right to end someone’s life because they unjustly took someone else’s.

So if a person was executed and was found posthumously to actually have been innocent, then would we be justified in executing, say, the DA who prosecuted the crime?

You’re right! We SHOULD get rid of all health and sanitation laws. Why even try?

And getting into a car with a stranger

Is getting into a car with a stranger a crime?

If the cops ever find my Uber history, I’m in trouble.

Is this a legitimate question? Seriously?

It’s funny that we never see headlines like “The rich already have lots of money. So why are they so upset about proposed tax increases?”

This is my approach, and for those who don’t know, you can use those line numbers that come back from history to rerun the command. Like if your output is something like this:

$ history | grep tmp
  501  ls /tmp
  502  history | grep tmp

You can run !501 and it will just re-run ls /tmp

If anything I’m a bit suspicious from where first came this call for complete disengagement.

lol, seriously? Musk wants to disable blocking on Twitter, while continuing to ratchet up the transphobia.

You’re truly suspicious about people not wanting to wallow in a cesspool of hate?

rather than push back.

Elon Musk owns Twitter. Every single time a person tweets some kind of “push back,” it’s just more activity on the platform that Elon Musk owns.

Question for you: Would you say all the pushback has been working? Because it seems like every comment out of Elon Musk’s mouth is worse.

I have (had?) plenty of friends on Twitter who loudly proudly boycotted the Harry Potter game due to JKR’s comments about trans people.

But they’ve stayed on Twitter despite its horrible owner and how he runs things.

I’m willing to give a pass to creators who make a living off their online audience. If the audience went off Twitter, so would they.

Everyone else, though? I don’t ever care to hear about what they’re boycotting again if they can’t pull themselves off Twitter.

People are also not allowed to say the word "cisgender” over there
