In some version of the myth they actually put an exit back to the living world up there. Sisyphus in life tried to cheat death (even succeeded for a bit) which is part of why he wound up in Tartarus. He could stop pushing the rock any time he wanted, but it would mean giving up on escape.
More expected than impressive. They didn’t invent warped moral frameworks but they do buy from the market leader. The accusations aren’t to convince people to leave the other team, it’s to allow people to justify taking those actions themselves. Stochastic vote manipulation of you will.
Which just goes to show his lack of presidential authority. - magas (I expect.)
The “This one neat trick big water won’t tell you about” to “the government can’t tell me not to dig my well next to my latrine” pipeline (aquaduct?) is real.
Can push California to 5 syllables if you really want to.
I’m also depressed though.
Probably better than just having their writing scraped and used without compensation. Not much better, mind.
I read a book recently (The Sparrow by Russell, good but harrowing) that referred to such programs as vultures, which was rather long-sighted given it was written in '96. Isn’t even about AI either.
The thing about serial killing is that it requires you to leave the house and meet new people, and frankly, that sounds like a lot of hassle I don’t need.
Hey, it’s got a handrail, it’s fine.
I’m currently at a slim 132GB over the course of a year, and that includes a good size library of RPG pdfs. I should probably save more music to my phone to save on bandwidth. I feel kind of uncomfortable going bellow 512GB storage but I clearly don’t need most of that.
Don’t even need to wait that long if you listen to some of the high weirdness folk.
Do you think quoting Hosea 8:7 is a little too on the nose?
A literate person has better opportunity to learn ethics and good thinking habits, but they also have better opportunity to confirm their own biases and be manipulated by grifters. It is kind of a wash when it comes to being a good person or not if the rest of the education system doesn’t actually educate.
Which is also weird if you think about it because they have the republic system too.
Larry isn’t a young cat. Steps need to be taken to ensure continuity of government.
I’m not sure if this would strictly be a SLAPP rather than general litigious bullying (GLiB has a nice ring to it actually.)
In this respect though open sourcing it was a good move. Even if the creator were to be blocked from distributing, it’s out there.
Maybe, though I feel like this is a pretty extreme solution. It is the government though.
The thing about legal threats is that they can work even if the theory they are based on isn’t any good. Fee-shifting isn’t always guaranteed, if it is available at all. Capital has already budgeted for its lawyers this year, have you?
The amount of times I’ve heard someone say ‘its for the farmers’ as if farmers have ever given a fuck what the clock says.
A hot toddy is a good winter drink, there are various recipes but the main thrust is whisky, honey, hot water and winter spices. Maybe some lemon and herbs.
Snowballs are popular for some reason, advocaat and sparkling lemonade. Probably no good if you don’t like nog.
The white russian is probably a good move if you want something rich but don’t like eggnog.
There are all kinds of punch suitable for winter, sloe gin (even if you don’t like gin, sloe gin is a different beast) is a good move, other hedgerow fruits, cider and or a sweet, fruity red wine.
Mulled wine is always a good move for large groups.
