Pictured are space-bombers. They drop gravity bombs… in space. Please stop talking about scientific accuracy in Star Wars.

I’m just starting “blasphemous” and “inscription”. I just completed “Axiom Verge”.

An (American) football team my family follows used to have a coach that got so upset over plays and calls that he would advance onto the field gesticulating and screaming, causing the team to get penalties.

Did they council this guy to control himself? No. They got someone on staff to physically restrain him when he lost his mind. Like the kid’s only job was to grab the coach by the belt-loops and keep him off the field.

I love this story because it’s about a masculine man engaging in a masculine activity who cannot be expected to control his own hysterics. I keep it in my back pocket for when the “men are stoic, women are emotional” BS comes up.

This is not about stopping bot-scrapers, it’s about charging them.

American Football: no time outs.

Play it just like soccer. Ref’s calls are final, and the clock doesn’t stop unless their is an injury.

It would make the game much more fun to watch, cut the runtime by two thirds, and force teams to hire athletes who can maintain vigorous activity for half an hour without dying.

What’s the deal with people hating on astrology? DAE get the vibe that there’s more to this than “astrology doesn’t work”?

The thing is that even in the James Randy world of people taking advantage of the credulous, astrology is still a pretty small fish. The skeptic doth protest too much.

Domestic GPS is plenty accurate to use in weapons. It must be accurate to <1M to be useful for navigation. If google maps can find your iphone in your house a missile can too.

I suspect that the Government has plans to make the signal less accurate or even turn it off in the case of an emergency.

GPS is also trivial to jam or spoof since the signals are weak anyway. In Ukraine the EW space is so flooded that they use wired drones, and old rockets with inertial navigation are popular.

Don’t confuse patriotism with nationalism. Patriotism is love for one’s homeland, nationalism is a delusion of blood and soil.

Capitalists are so fucking innovative that they’re trying to replace unpaid human labor with robots that are worse and cost money.

Your argument is more out of date than Vista. Windows is not the default because people like their software, or would choose it over anything else. It’s because they’ve positioned themselves as the default monopoly since the goddamn 1980s.

To see what happens when Microsoft has to compete on quality of software, just ask yourself why Copilot and Recall aren’t being rolled out on Windows phones.

The best part about Christianity is the music, but this ain’t it.

I’m rocking a GTX 1660 and have no plans to upgrade. Ray-tracing is a scam and all the “AAA” titles that are too vram hungry for my card are not that attractive anyway.

Heroin.

Stopping the genocide is a necessity. Getting “justice” for the genocide is a luxury.

Palestinians will not forget what happened. No matter the media cycle or influencers.

One day, a handheld running Linux will emulate Mario Kart Wold. A Nintendo product will never run a Steam game.

People in the Confederacy would have been embarrassed that Braxton Bragg got a base named after him. By the end of the war, Bragg held the title of General in name only and had no authority over anyone. His only talent was being friends with Jefferson Davis.

It’s a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying (Veo 3)

It’s ironic that you describe your impression of LLMs in emotional terms.

I do not wish to be included in your “we”.

it’s interesting that the guns were silent throughout the trailer.

When any game changes ToS, the refund window should reset.
