I would assume they were placed on a bedside table pointed in the general direction of the fucking.

But still.

It means I think everyone else is an asshole.

I might be too, but I don’t think I am.

Depends. If the chief murdered the guy, then that’s the restaurant’s responsibility for not keeping the chef secured.

At least I understand the words in the explanation.

But who the duck dislike being called a good boy?

Right, but that’s not to protect them from AI. It’s to protect them from us, once we come to our senses.

Because the people with money know they don’t have to listen to the little people.

We don’t even need overblown fears about AI killing everyone. AI is ruining students, ruining artists, causing massive layoffs, being used to monitor and judge our behavior, and is attempting to influence our behavior. It seems there are attempts to give these glorified auto-complete programs increasing amounts of resources and authority.

This is bad for most people. And those of us born after 1980 or so have no illusions that anyone in power is going to care about the welfare of the little people. They only recognize money and power. We don’t have money, but there are many kinds of power. I hope someone recognizes the signs, and changes course before it gets bloody.

That’s kind of the point, isn’t it? Our way of life sucks.

I missed the “X” in that title, and read “EFF is leaving the Electronic Freedom Foundation,” and was very confused.

This is an anti-gift.

I’m on board.

I was around at the time, too, but young and still liked to think the best of people.

I’ve clicked a few. Mostly by accident, the rest by deception.

Add I understand it, the real meaning of that line is not exactly what it sounds like. It meant something like “in this anonymous place, only your thoughts matter, not your identity.” If an idea was good, it was good, and it didn’t matter who had the idea. Very egalitarian.

Of course, we have since realized that isn’t really true. Sometimes it’s important to know if a thought is coming from a woman, who has had different experience from a man.

Still an idea that need to be left behind, but not the one you probably think.

That’s what Eternal September means.

“Pics or it didn’t happen” doesn’t really work anymore.

I’m curious to know why they are there. They can’t have much in the way of line of sight from there.

Maybe. Trump isn’t exactly motivated by trying to protect democracy.

A good question. It’s kind of like when crime happens to criminals. Yes, they are entitled to the same protection as everyone else, but there’s a side-eye there.

We all know Iran is governed by assholes. But it’s still wrong for us to invade them like this.

if Iran had a democracy there would be no war happening right now because the people of Iran CLEARLY wanted another government

Iran didn’t start the war. Our idiot in chief did. Maybe he wouldn’t have attacked a democratic Iran, but maybe he would have.

I think maybe someone should be worrying about it.
