Why do people keep reading dystopias as instruction books?

Oh, I’m with you. I don’t think anyone using Google VPN was using it because it protected their privacy on the Internet generally. At least I hope not.

The NASA VPN, on the other hand

Reasonable when the alternative is literally getting mugged on the daily?

How about family dynasties?

Wait, did somebody say Kennedy?

Ah, yes, the Athenian Method.

Quoting the linked article:

The contract the Guild secured in September set a historic precedent: It is up to the writers whether and how they use generative AI as a tool to assist and complement—not replace—them. Ultimately, if generative AI is used, the contract stipulates that writers get full credit and compensation.

So, yeah. It’s more about ensuring that a human person in the writers’ guild gets credited as a writer, even if they or someone else uses an ai as a tool in the process.

That’s allowed, no?

Unless I’m mistaken, this was more about writers not wanting the studio to be able to say “we had an ai generated a script. We’ll pay you a day to do a brief editing pass.”

There was a picture of him in the link you shared, he looks almost exactly like the director guy in that movie. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was the model they based it on

Kreacher really wants to be a good slave, he just wants to be a good slave for the bad guys. So it’s okay to abuse him, see?

…is Chuck Palahniuk the director of the Truman Show? The show?

That’s okay. Did you know it has sequels?

I can post without images all the time, on boost on Android.

They’re both so near zero as to be hardly worth considering.

The thing to think about is the fact that, in either case, ghost or alien are in any way especially indicated by the evidence. People don’t see something strange and conclude aliens because they have good reason to believe from the evidence that something traveled vast distances across space, but rather they simply don’t have anything good to believe right now.

Having unusual evidence that doesn’t seem to point at the simple, mundane explanation isn’t the same as having evidence that does point at a supernatural or extraterrestrial explanation

Maybe more like saying “you don’t have to be fastest to finish first if you get enough of a head start”?

FSM?

Apparently she defended trans people in a conversation, someone complained, and moderators got involved and manually overrode the ai. Paraphrased hearsay.

I mean personally I figure some way that doesn’t exclude anyone who’s had a hysterectomy, but

Everyone hear that? Once you get a hysterectomy, you’re not female any more!

Listen, mate, threatening to kill people is a pretty shit way to interact with anyone. If you don’t want to date someone with a penis, maybe say so up front. No one is trying to trick you, and no one is trying to lie to you. They’re just trying to live life, same as anyone.
