As someone who wasn’t subbed to any of those other communities, I appreciate the cross post! Keep up the good work!

The biggest favor you’ve ever done for anyone in your entire life is… Buying a pack of cigarettes?!

Not true in the US. They could ban anyone born in the entire month of April, or anyone who “looks like a pot smoker” if they wanted to.

Applicants, employees and former employees are ONLY protected from employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, or gender identity), national origin, age (40 or older), disability and genetic information (including family medical history).

+1 for SponsorBlock. I absolutely hate when videos spoil themselves within the first 3 seconds thanks to those fucking intros.

Is this game still exclusive to Epic?

Unless you live on the West coast! Maybe we can join up with Canada to become the new superpower?

I’m actually a fairly progressive Bernie Sanders voter. I agree with Jon Stewart that the best cure for hate speech or more speech, rather than censorship. I am also against book bans for what it’s worth.

Fair enough, but you’ve moved the goalposts. The word “intentional” doesn’t appear anywhere in this article, or my comment.

No screeching. Just a sad realization that our 1st Amendment rights will slowly be whittled away by big-tech censorship. All while the unsophisticated masses (excited at the thought of a short-term culture war victory) cheer along the restriction of free expression.

There was a hearing in the Senate too? I only saw the one in the US House. Does anyone have a link?!

Remember the end of every Mythbusters episode where they went wild trying to see what it would take for the myth to actually be true? Let’s apply that here. What would be the best way to vaporize an entire 30-50g of live resin and get an entire room of people high using household materials?

What if we made a Star Trek movie, but with a smaller 50-100M budget so we can gear it towards existing Star Trek fans instead of hiring JJ Abrams to churn out another generic summer Blockbuster with a thin veneer of Star Trek branding.

In this movie, there will be no violence and the ship won’t even fire its’ weapons. The script will be thought-provoking with a heavy focus on space and science interweaved with humanist philosophy where the crew overcome some sort of moral or ethical dilemma.

In other words… a Star Trek movie, for fans of Star Trek movies, made in the style of the first Star Trek movies.

I agree that the core claim of the MM report is not under dispute. But take a look at their article now that you know the context around how those ads were generated.

I don’t know if it’s defamatory, but you have to agree that it comes off as a bit disingenuous based on the new info from X. Of course that info from X could be BS, which is why I said we’ll have to wait for the court case to know for sure.

Did you read the article? X is alleging that media matters had to manipulate their platform in order for it to generate these ads next to the hateful accounts. According to their records, those ads only appeared one time, for the user account associated with Media Matters. This supports their theory that manipulation was required.

I guess we’ll have to wait for the court case to find out who’s right. But immediately assuming the X lawsuit has no merits just because you don’t like Elon Musk is a bit disingenuous.

I believe one of the worst possible timelines for the average human is one where for-profit capitalist entities control access to AGI and horde all the benefits accrued from it. OpenAI was founded specifically to avoid this - with a complicated governance structure designed to ensure true AGI would end up owned by humanity with the benefits shared by all.

The OpenAI board and top researchers made a desperate bid to prioritize safety over profits, and even with that elaborate governance structure behind them capitalism still seems to have found a way to fuck us.

Today we saw Satya Nadella and Sam Altman steer humanity further from a possible utopia and closer to… Cyberpunk 2077.

Good luck everyone!

Thereby proving everything the board feared about him. Good riddance.

I think the answer to your question might be subtly embedded in the second paragraph of the article.

“U.S. forces came under attack three times on Sunday evening, including near the Al Omar Oil field… the official told Reuters.”

Here’s what I don’t understand. They went through the Singularity to the future because that was the only place the Control AI wouldn’t be able to find them, right? Except Control was already destroyed before they went through the Singularity!

I’ve never even been able to start season 3 because I just can’t get past the stupidity of not reversing the engines away from the Singularity the moment Control was eliminated as a threat.
