Barkley inspired me to become terrified of transporters.

I remember the fireflies in late summer outside the cities. They are nowhere to be found anymore, unfortunately.

No. We’re not supposed to believe that. Making group decisions isn’t the same as codifying the mechanisms into a well defined form of state.

Looks like a cool piece of hardware, but I don’t think I could justify spending $100 on a controller right now, unfortunately.

It’s not part of the actual code, technically. Select just switches to 2 player mode on the contra title screen, and start starts the game. If you played single player, ypu wouldn’t press select at all.

And in gradius i think you enter it on the pause screen iirc, so start would resume the game there.

Yeah, you can already see the goals more or less fully spelled out by fascist companies like Palantir. In the name of “national security” and “protecting children”, they will work towarda a surveillance state to control people.

If you thought that always-online videogames are bullshit, wait until they roll out the always-online id. “Since you are a law abiding citizen, you have nothing to hide, right? But if you take your ID offline, and you’ll be suspicious. Police might pick you up for questioning… it’s all to keep us safe.”

I think the immediate danger is less death robots, but instead manipulation. AI opens a lot of ways to easily put out propaganda and other ways to control people.

As Magyar says: "I believe that if the country is a member of the International Criminal Court, and a person who is wanted by the court enters our territory, then that person must be taken into custody,”

I wish this wasn’t even up for debate. He is wanted by the ICC, so for any country that is part of it, it shouldn’t matter who he is. Just arrest him.

Took me until I read your comment.

Man, i remember when I first manged to properly install enlightenment on SUSE. I knew almost nothing about linux. It was just pure trial and error from dependencies to proper drivers. I felt so proud when I finally got it working.

Iran is playing Trump like a fiddle. They opened it just to put the full blame on Trump.

I agree, and i think it’s more than just nostaliga. All the additional media/shows added so much extra context, which makes the movies seem better then they actually are, because it tends to get blended together in people’s minds growing up.

Characters like Anakin or Darth Maul, who are wrtten absolutely terribly in the movies are much more liked because of shows like Clone Wars, which influenced the way people remember the movies additionally to the nostalgia.

The absolute worst thing that can happen is if it suddenly starts working without doing anything

The victim blaming is so disgusting. I heard people say shit like “Oh trans people asked for too much”. Too much? Like what? Basic human rights? The right to exist?

They really think that if bullies get what they want they would just stop being bullies.

Adding that to a (non ai) vow on purpose would be hilerious, imho. Though depends on the people and mood if you could pull it off.

“Is the us committing a war crime by <description of war crime>?”

This bitch needs to go to prison. She can write her book there for all I care.

It’s such a great episode but so uncomfortable to watch.
