People aren’t trying to stop or “luddite” the “AI revolution”. They’re trying to ensure it is properly regulated so that the harms it can also cause are mitigated. To pretend AI has no potential harm on society is incredibly ignorant.
The AI revolution is not at all comparable to the industrial revolution which simply…

Maybe creating AI tools like this was a fucking mistake.

At the same time, if that’s true, then why is the main plot of the game stopping a labor rebellion?

This is so gross on so many levels. If you really want to protect children keep them away from religious institutions. That’s where the vast majority of pedophiles work and live. Those in charge are happy to import them from other branches if there is a shortage. There are literally thousands of receipts. And victims. 

I can lead a horse to water. I can’t make them drink. 

Authoritarianism has now so thoroughly permeated US politics that DeSantis is bragging that he’ll use his new political power over Disney to influence what kind of movies they make. I never dreamed that we would see that in America.

We also used to joke that manual transmissions were anti-theft devices, but I don’t think it’s a joke anymore... they really are!

Resident Zoomer here and a benefit at least for me is its a lot easier to loan someone a car when it is a manual. When manuals are essentially only for enthusiasts who actively seek them out; you can weed out people who you wouldn’t want to borrow your car. The manual pickup has gotten me out of several “hey can I…

For the uninitiated, this is more evidence to consider that—when push comes to shove—Capitalism will always side with the regressive/Right regeimes when it comes to business.

How to be a shitty person:

Every time I see that bathroom nonsense I always wonder what public restrooms these people are using that have someone posted at the door checking genders on the way in.

Also men just attack women all the time in public places. They don’t need to throw on a skirt and infiltrate the ladies room at Target to do it.

I have no doubt that Ms. Rowling has been a victim of abuse and I am sure that has been traumatic. Being a victim of abuse does not give her the right to belittle or worse yet, continue the abuse of others.

God damn I am so fucking sick of this being called a witch hunt. THERE WERE NO ACTUAL WITCHES. JKR IS CLEARLY ANTI-TRANS. 

“I do not walk around my house thinking about my legacy. What a pompous way to live your life, thinking what will my legacy be,” the author says during the first episode of The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling. “Whatever! I’ll be dead! I care about now. I care about the living.”

You sure do spend a lot of time typing out comments that skirt the line of defending bigots.  Stop dancing around it, just be honest for a change.

Why do all the Harry Potter apologists gotta write entire novels defending this damn game, why are you like this. 

“Bully” hahahha Trans people literally kill themselves because of harassment and real bullying caused by people like JK Rowling but sure, this is “bullying”

Maybe you actually should feel guilty about defending the nazi propaganda game. But you just created the account to make this comment, so “shame” is not likely a thing you experience.

Gamers need to know what their purchase is funding, whether it makes them uncomfortable or not.

Yeah, sorry, but I don’t have a lot of sympathy for the people who have been brought to tears just because they want to play a video game as opposed to the people literally being murdered just for wanting to exist.
