it’s extremely funny that barsanti’s stance is rallying so many ‘well actually’s about AI.

Oh, neat. Jack White cries about Trump also? How unexpected.

You forgot which site you’re on.

Jonah Hill a Jerk!! Wow. Who would have guess that one? /s.

There is nothing special or nefarious about this. Once she goes to see her case manager for the first time, they will adjust her release date. For her, since she is serving more than 12 months, she gets “good time.” This is roughly 15% off (54 days for every 365 days of prison term) her sentence which everyone gets…

That’s just shitty. “I’m really insecure, so can you please stop doing your job or having fun?”

This isn’t surprising in the least.

Having watched The Wire and The Corner and a smattering of his personal musings, I’m going to guess Simon isn’t a big believer in the American penal system. That he’s willing to walk-the-walk — that he’s not asking for something special in this case because it impacted someone he has worked with and been friends with…

Count me firmly on Team Brady. If Hill thinks that therapy “worked” for him, I wonder what he was like before he started ... because that text does not come from a fully actualized and confident man.  It comes from a man-baby.

Oh ffs. This is just some gibberish re-wording of exactly the problem. He was not setting HIS “boundaries.” 

I think what makes it manipulative is that he started a relationship with someone who was a professional surfer, who’s social media history and presence including oodles of this content that he wanted her to get rid of, and he appears to have not mentioned that beforehand only bringing up during the relationship. If…

Boundaries are about your behavior and what you do, not about the other person. If you don’t want your girlfriend to have swimsuit photos online, you take the action to find a girlfriend who isn’t a professional surfer (or just one who doesn’t post swimsuit shots). Your boundary doesn’t proscribe your partner’s…

FTFY

The problem with nearly every car mentioned here is the price.

Weird. Normal people don’t want to buy a $50k car with 7% interest rates, tech that’s outdated faster than a modern smartphone, a business model that’s constantly pushing microservices, and tracks all your movements with no way to opt out or find out where that information is going?

This kind of goes against my personal experience. We somewhat recently drove to around 8 dealerships and most had 0 or 1 of any given EV model currently on the lot.

This certainly conforms to my experience recently. We’re looking for a new car and the lots are largely barren - except for dedicated EVs from some companies. We could have jumped into a Solterra, BZ4X, Mach-E, e-Mini, etc. immediately - just completed the sale and driven it off the lot... and in any number of…

Once again it must be said tropes are useless tools for art criticism they merely highlight humans are so in love with pattern matching they’ll find patterns even when the patterns don’t exist.

We won’t know until we’ve seen the second half of the series.
