That would be extremely out of character for the GOP, why would you even expect that from them?
- Comment on GOP sneaks decade-long AI regulation ban into spending bill - Ars Technica 5 hours ago:
To be clear, the bill prevents regulation. It’s not a regulatory ban, it is a ban on regulation.

A really big part of therapy is learning how to communicate what happened, what is happening, and what you are feeling.
It takes a lot of time to organize it all into words that another person would understand, and doing so helps you.
The therapist might aslo reccomend what to do going forward but 9/10 times you already know that.

The Apollo Program had an achievable goal, lots of beneficial byproducts, and was administrated by public offices.
Nothing about it is comparable.

And the current AI spring is just old people buying into bullshit marketing and putting all their money in a Ponze Scheme.

IDK, I still think about how the dufuses added recoil to laser guns in FO4. And the fact that land mines and similar traps reload every time a save is loaded is super dumb because it’s just like “OH DID WIDDLE BABY GET BLOWN DA FUQ UP? LET ME FIX IT FOR YOU (Removes the landmines)”.

A company that makes negative income every quarter forever, and whose latest edition costs a magnitude more power and is worse than the previous, is worth between $150 Bn and $300 Bn. Many other competing companies equally overvalued.
These are businesses who are only valuable because people keep investing in them. A Ponzi Scheme.

They changed the recipe. Skyrim, Fallout 3 and 4, Oblivion, and Morrowind all had something in common: handcrafted environments densely packed with points of interest.
Starfield used procedurally generated content. It generates abandoned mines and outposts from a tileset and then drops you in the literal desert between them.

Technically it was never illegal in the US to download copywritten content. It was illegal to distribute them. That was literally Meta’s defence in court: they didn’t seed any downloads.

How tf did this Ponze Scheme even get as far as the UK Prime Minister’s desk?

Cartilage loss and bone fractures regenerate as long as genetic integrity is maintained, that’s why it’s widely considered an age related disease. Self repairing telomeres would keep you from having most later in life joint failures.
As for arthritis and general aches and pains, those are more common after the human body stops developing, usually in the late twenties and early thirties and progressing onwards.

- Comment on Kids are short-circuiting their school-issued Chromebooks for TikTok clout 3 days ago:
Years ago it was reported on by Internet 2.0 which was shared by news organizations such as Huffington Post. Additionally there was this guy on Reddit 5 years ago who decompiled the app and shared all the results on a subreddit made specifically for it LINK HERE and he claims that the app is literally more malware-like data collection than actual video playing app, like the amount of install data is mostly just the data collection tools.
If TikTok didn’t want these stories swept under the rug and if there wasn’t truth to these stories they could have sued these people for defamation. But they didn’t, implying they would have lost the case handily and looked bad for it.

TBF TikTok wants the US Government to fail regardless of who is in office at the time.
It’s like that meme from flippanarchy the other day.
- Comment on Kids are short-circuiting their school-issued Chromebooks for TikTok clout 3 days ago:
TikTok always favored Trump because China always favored Trump and TikTok is operated by Chinese Military directly out of Chinese servers which also store location data, contacts, text message history, and photo library of every device which has ever installed TikTok.
It’s a weapon to be used against the US now and since always.

Ah you know what I’ll just send a reset code to my phone. Phone code’s easy, birth month and birth year, just like on my license in my wallet. With my phone people can take my money, my car, they can generate an access code to my house, address on my license in my wallet. Good ol’ phone code. But at least now I’ve bought enough time for POCKET SAND!”

Yes, in fact the report specifically mentions that NBA 2k24 outperformed expectations. Other than that they’re probably earning passively off of older titles and GTA V microtransactions.
