Panasonic, once revered for its plasma TV

I know them from their VCRs and batteries, not their plasma TVs. But I guess that’s just showing my age.

A rules based system works when every player follows the rules. One side is actively dismantling and abandoning the rules. Do we still keep playing with our hands tied behind our backs?

Sure, sure, everything can be simplified down to people just not “liking” them. That’s what this is all about. That’s what all this is about. We simply don’t like people. No, it’s not the fact that these assholes are the ones behind the 21st century rise of cyber-fascism. We just don’t like 'em. Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, yeah they’re all really decent people inside, it’s us that’s the problem. /s

Sick and tired of useless fucking people that style themselves as “rational” and “middle of the road” in a world that is literally starting to threaten my very existence. The time for that shit is long past us, sorry.

There is no such thing

There damn well IS a such thing, I’m a radical leftist anarchist specifically. But you’re right in that regular liberals like AOC are not. “Radical” just means outside of mainstream political thought.

It’s kind of well-known and a long-running meme at this point that Redditors have a superiority complex about other platforms and think only theirs is the most “intelligent” and “rational” platform. It dates back to when it was mostly controlled by right-libertarian fedora-wearing raging atheist types.

Did you just log on to the Internet for the first time yesterday?

“Oh fuck. Copilot, revert that code change, it’s even more broken now.”

“Yes, you are completely correct, and I apologize for the mistake! Here is a patch to fix the broken code!”

Narrator: It did not fix the broken code.

“Live with it”

Gonna say the same when your fucking back is against the wall next to all the other fucks just like you when all this is over? Society destroyed fascism once. We will fucking do it again.

We have to make these assholes start thinking carefully about their words. They need to be looking over their shoulder 24/7 now. I’m fucking done. Ban me for inciting violence, IDGAF. As far as I’m concerned, it’s self defense now.

“Internal bleeding to the torso”

Without any more than that, I’m going to assume he just got a fucking bruise.

Don’t need to be able to think to cause mass devastation with a rogue AI. I present the paperclip problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_convergence

And from my experience trying to use it for programming, I know it absolutely will try its best to reach an unbounded goal you set for it even if it means creating the most convoluted and unmaintainable spaghetti code you’ve ever seen, or even trying to find loopholes to suppress error messages without actually fixing the error.

Wasn’t this the cause of future events in the whole Terminator series?

Yeah what year is it, 2012? Can I hold onto my Bitcoins this time instead of spending them all on drugs?

It treat it like the Marines do. You’re never a “former” astronaut once you earn the title. That’s an accomplishment that a fraction of a fraction of humans currently alive will ever achieve.

As a Tinea Versicolor sufferer, that’d be nice.

Instructions unclear, becoming girl.

Is this just like the equivalent of a getter method in C++?

If you’re doing it for yourself, fine. If you’re writing for me, don’t waste my time by making me have to decipher your custom scribble that’s never consistent with anyone else’s, unlike normal print.

Fuck serif fonts. The point of writing is to communicate clearly. Not look pretty and fancy-pants IMO.

I hate cursive for the same reason. It’s elitist trash script.

Who is?

My ex wife for one, who would like to play Steam games but is not experienced enough to build and fiddle with a gaming PC, much less Linux, and just wants a box she can just plug in and turn on without calling all the IT folks in her family.

Don’t forget about our nerd bias. Most people here have a different perspective than 95% of normies. Remember how clueless the average person is about the inner workings of modern tech.
