It was more of a slowdown actually, or I suppose more accurately a direct attempt at the “give the people what they are asking for and show them why they won’t like it”.

In short, the police continued to investigate major crimes. But focus less on trying to catch people in small crimes etc… IE stop and frisk kind of nonsense etc… expecting to come out of it saying “see now look how many major crimes happened because we didn’t nip things in the bud”, and it ended basically with major crime going down, and people being happier with the police.

I never blame the workers and my annoyance is halved.

I disagree, the annoyance should be doubled, but directed to those in charge of the workers who treated them bad enough to want to strike.

lol the amount of times I’ve seen AI do.

No wait that’s wrong try this

Oh wait that’s also wrong that still doesn’t work try this.

No still wouldn’t do it.

On just questions without asking it to correct itself, (which tells me internally they have some kind of… basically reviewing it’s own answers before they go out.

Honestly I do wonder if we’ll get there

a hello world program would just spin back and forth “Rejected demanded these fixes”, Rejected making it more like the original, rejected. retrying

“you have spent your entire $50,000 token budget… would you like to restock and keep going”.

My thoughts as well, if he’s willing to risk his political career anyway (it is and will be torching his own party, he won’t win as an independent, but he will take down his no name republican rival).

Double down with that, with googles new plans for gemini to overtake search… they really are going that direction… combining that with musks currently failing but obvious goal to make grok agree with right wing concepts. It’s really quite a terrifying end direction. Especially when you think of the end result of the AI replacing search on the long term of things. Because the chilling effect it has IF it works. IE say if google actually correctly agregates everything on the internet, and even IF it perfectly differentiates truth from BS. What happens to the places that actually do the work to get that truth, when people don’t click to their pages. No ads or subscriptions, means they get nothing, which means they eventually go bankrupt, and thus no new information gets fed to the AIs, and the only ones that are left to make pages to give new sources, are governments and corporations that have motive to convince the data lords to see them favorably.

The death note and how to use it:

If you don’t specify a cause of death, the person will die via drowning in a canal.

I’m not going to post photos of my friends here for their own privacy. Duh.

Just a note here lol, this is lemmy, generally speaking, Putting something AI, automatically puts everyone into a dislike position.

Second I’d say the agreed concept here… it being AI… means it’s only your interpretation of their style, what to you is normal may or may not stand out massively to your parents, maybe not. If there actually is a detail that you think is normal, but is a huge red flag to your parents we wouldn’t have access to that. So in short, the pic is useless no matter what, you may as well have just given a vague description of it to us. (Hell just whatever prompt you gave to AI would probably have been just as good),

anyway as far as that goes, it doesn’t really matter I guess, maybe your parents have a weird bias against a certain dress style, or maybe some prejudice. Or maybe there’s a swastika tattoo on each of your friends foreheads that you’ve just never noticed.

They were thinking a particular large military power would just, stay in Iran for 20+ years, hopefully whenever the pullout happens is in like 20 years, ideally with a democratic president so they can blame him when the US sponsored government gets overthrown 5 minutes after they leave.

I’m missing the concept that you are worried about. Are you worried someone from the Carrington family would get offended when he finds out that you don’t decend from Carringtons? For the most part last names are so common that it’s fairly common to find someone with the same last name, but effectively no relation, and no one governs who’s part of the ___ family.

It’s quintuple ironic because like the first season was basically so good at setting up a “this isn’t like other series’s, no one is safe”, keeps that tone up through the red wedding. Then after

It becomes obvious that if a good guy has lived up to this point, they are probably fine for a while.

Yeah, for those who don’t know, in the last season (spoiler ahead)

To go more specific

https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/stats

Lemmy has about a million and a half registered users total. close to 35k active per month.

Reddit can be estimated as over 400k active weekly users. In short a semi popular subreddit would be expected to have more total active users than lemmy as a whole

Trying to remember a bit more of it, but wasn’t the usb stick a rubber ducky? I mean it could possibly trigger some alarms, but to note that I don’t think it would register as a flash drive. In short you can program them and make them appear to the computer however you want. (IE it could appear as a keyboard, and rather than copying a file from storage, and rather than copying a script off of itself, it could say open cmd or powershell and effectively run the commands itself (as if they are being typed really fast, rather than actually a script). Companies typically don’t log keyboards being plugged in.

I mean what’s the arguement here, that an anti-canal group is trying to hire crisis actors to pretend they have a dead loved one? That the mob is doing hits and throwing them in the canal and making it look like an accident?

I mean, “rich kids” itself is kind of just an extension of what they are allowed to have, and what is officially considered their possesions. I think biological vs step is a meaningless extension. Say you are one of Elon Musks huge wave of kids, you are as rich as whatever payoffs he gave the mother, provided the mother actually spends it on you. Or one of the russian hookers or whatever the heck gates was up to you may very well be poor as hell.

You can have rich parents that you stay with, but they spend less on you than your average barely making ends meet family.

I’d say for the same reason we had actually hovering hoverboards in 2015 in back to the future?

agreed there, though where I’d say further it’s about rules internal consistency as well. IE obviously just about every fictional monster has a complete disregard of science, though some more than others can stick to the rules set out in the fictional world.

Answer to all those questions is that they’re magical fictional creatures.

I mean there is that, but at least to some extent fiction has rules, though it’s worth pointing out most broadly, that’s the issue with popular frequently re-imagined things, as every lore has it’s own complete seperate set of rules. Rules are added, removed, changed etc… for every re-interpretation. Zombies could be cursed, magical or maybe semi-realistic scientific explanation. Same problem if you try and explain vampires, as obviously the classic lore they need to be invited in, can be defended from by throwing rice on the ground, cannot cross running water, weak to sun, can’t have reflections, only killable with a wooden stake, or supernaturals vampires that can only be decapitated and lack most of those weaknesses, or twilight where the sun makes them glittery.

It’s a lot of land, and a lot of oil. Just because it’s the same country doesn’t make it easy

I mean obviously they are portreyed as good in fiction, hence the long list of examples.

as far as the answer, that’s the universal problem with mixed world mixed stregnth superheros to begin with. Same problem why the green arrow can still be dealing with non powered regular schmos with the flash and superman in their universe able to literally reach the city in seconds and deal with all the problems.
