The Wachowskis laid the groundwork that required that time and money, for everything to derivate.
The execution of AI work is certainly of a fairly good quality, often enough. But it's creatively sterile. And the sterility is evident in these conversations.
The dirt still had to be made.

Ultimately, people talk about how "it costs millions in dollars and weeks of filming for Hollywood, it cost me pennies in an afternoon."
But this is ignoring that /you didn't come up with the innovative idea in the first place/.

“Fine,” says the scientist as he bends down to scoop up a handful of dirt.
“Whoa!” says God, shaking his head in disapproval. “Not so fast. You get your own dirt.”

God replied, “Don’t need me huh? How about we put your theory to the test. Why don’t we have a competition to see who can make a human being.”
The scientist agrees, so God declares they should do it as he did in the good old days when he created Adam.

This reminds me of a sort of joke I heard once. Bear with me, it being a Christian joke isn't important:
A scientist said “Listen, God, we’ve decided we don’t need you anymore. These days we can clone people, transplant organs, and do all sorts of things that used to be considered miraculous.”

Absolute Immunity
Alignment with supremacy is a vile choice. Raising the natural costs for those who make that choice by putting first things first.
Let me give you a thought experiment:
Imagine not just a ban on qualified immunity for authority, but a reversal; a new legal framework, under which authority bears greater responsibility than civilians in matters involving force—as it should.

I think something that is going to be annoying is that there is going to be a population of Trump supporters that, if they realize Trump isn't actually good for the country, will act like he is demonstrative of politicians as a whole.
Listen, they are not all great... but he is uniquely awful.

In the same way this administration and its supporters have accused others of being DEI hires (baseless accusations), she too is one.
Qualified, but otherwise overlooked for political kudos.
Though, we can't ignore her proximity to Trump and Zuckerberg's pandering to Trump. I am sure that's a plus

She actually has experience in these roles at BDT & MSD Partners prior to her time on Meta's board.
But also...
I imagine conservatives saying it's unfair to call her a DEI hire never looked at the resume of anyone else called a DEI hire.

Statement from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell
Good evening. On Friday, the Department of Justice served the Federal Reserve with grand jury subpoenas, threatening a criminal indictment related to my testi
Silly me, I thought Trump would just wait it out until May. But I guess when midterms threaten your authoritarian rule and you are starting conflicts left-and-right, you got to pull out all the stops to woo people.
Absurd.

Well, that's silly.
What if I am power hungry?
Or don't see others as "people"?
Or get my rocks off on torture?
What about then? Why would you torture me by denying my ability to torture others?

He goes on to say that "hundreds" of interracial couples agreed with him and "whole hundreds" of non-interracial couples disagree.
Nvm that I think this is utter bs. He is in a position where some number of people saying these things is no absurd, but expected.
What a joke.

Hi!
I am Latino.
I am Christian (though I am sure they would argue otherwise).
I am married to a white woman.
*I* am happily married.
Dale, on the other hand, is not. This is proof of that. It's just sad.

These fucking politicians need to STOP CONSTANTLY admonishing protestors to be "peaceful" while they are being brutalized regularly by the gatekeepers of the state. You should be up there telling ICE and Border Patrol to be fucking peaceful.

I would just like to remind everyone that Watters' ex-wife had filed for divorce after he admitted to having an affair with a Producer of his show. An affair he initiated by letting the air out of her tires so he could offer her a ride.
And that we should bomb/gas the UN because of the escalator.

After he fires, notice how far away his legs are from the front-left wheel. It almost looks like he loses balance for how far out his upper body is in order to "lean" on the front of the SUV.
Also notice how quick his one buddy jumps off the car to join.
Or how quickly everyone adjusts their masks

After holstering his gun, approaching the vehicle, walking back, and telling other ICE agents to deal with the situation.
He never really thought he was in danger. He stood his ground in front of a vehicle telegraphing it wanted out and was avoiding them, and then he panicked.
He murdered her.

Two things:
1. I want to think of a term to coin the weird use of quotes on words that I am correlating with Trump. Are they artisan or not? What are you suggesting by saying ""artisan""?
2. Is this a greater or lesser threat to democracy and capitalism than Obama's tan suit?

You know, I am critical about journalists for a lot of things:
-Inability to ask follow up questions
-Caving to censorship
-Not understanding what caving to a narcissist entails
-Overall cowardice
But man do they not break. If I heard someone say "drone free roof", I would bust out laughing.

Legitimately crying right now. Wooo. When the worst person you know says something funny.
"Drone-free roof" is hilarious.
Also thought the video looped when instead he just repeats nonsense like a broken text generator.

I am amused by the idea that the Right has been claiming that Illegal Immigrants have been taking money away from US citizens.
So their solution here is to give them money to leave.
Although, really, this administration's solution for anything is to promise something and never actually deliver.

No. You don't understand. This is actually secretly/not-so-secretly a good thing for the industry.
Now, all countries know that our military is (apparently) stifled by these projects and will invest in them. They're going to get so much revenue!
This is like... NIMBY, but for a nation.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.
