So, to play Devil's advocate, the tone is what makes it feel like the future. While Next Generation would have lots of 20th century, U.S. culture brought up, it was always from a "antiquity" POV.
The article actually mentions Beastie Boys used in Beyond. But that's actually more in line with how they would have handled it before.
Not really. Withholding compensation only impacts those with the least amount of outside money. In other words, the most corrupt would be able to leverage it against the least corrupt.
I think it's bullshit that "keep the government open" hasn't been made permanent yet. Same with paying our debts.
Maybe before. But it's gotten pretty damn good at detecting anomalies and issues. And every time a human QA validates the info, it gets better.
I'd still leave it to a human to fix the code though. I suspect that letting AI write the code would make it unworkable for people in the future. But maybe it can write code in a straightforward way to be managed. I don't know. It's advancing pretty fast.
From a tech POV, that makes a lot of sense. Use AI to find the needle in the haystack. Then let a person validate. That's probably one of the better uses for it. Although I don't love AI for any of the broad reasons to not like AI.
I've heard conflicting reports of Superman being profitable vs not. If I'm reading this correctly, it's actually just saying the revenue timing was in Q3 compared to the costs being in previous quarters, right?
In other words, quarters with more developed are going to have higher costs and quarters with more releases will have more revenue.
My religion explicitly says that fetuses aren't people until their first breath. Does that mean abortions aren't murder as long as the mother is Christian?
It's the moderates and centrists that worry me. I know he had a laundry list of deal breakers. But after Jan 6th, he should have lost every sliver of support from anyone who doesn't support treason.
I never got the complaints about Manchin. He had morals and was left of everyone in the GOP ,and he was in a seat that pretty much could go any further to the left.
Fetterman can eat a bag of ducks though. He's literally just appealing to Republicans like he's about to flip.
Larry Bushart, the name in the screenshot. Ex-cop too. They said that it was a threat to shoot up a school because he quoted Trump saying to get over a school shooting and that it [obviously Trump's comment as applicable to not mourning CK, and not advocating for shooting people] was relevant today.
Bleeding heart just means that they're too caring. As in, the type to give handouts and hug trees. But I haven't heard that in forever. I think it's been switched out for socialists.
Not sure if I agree on the other two. They are definitely coopted for political gain. But I don't know that it changes the base term. When they say "woke mob", I don't hear an implication that it's disingenuous.
Virtue signaling definitely applies though.
I do find it ironic that liberals (people who just want to live their lives and not impede on others, not the politicians) give the least amount of fucks. They don't give a fuck if gays marry, but they also don't give a fuck if they're not allowed to (assuming it doesn't impact them).
And that's why they blame teachers for guilting kids when teaching history. Because they told their kids that it's core to their identity.
But also, if they admit that their great, great, grandpa fought to take away their state right to choose whether rich assholes could own other people (also giving them an unfair advantage over poorer farmers), they'd have to admit that their ancestry was being really fucking stupid tools.
