Just as a counterpoint, the area burning man is held in is one of the most ecologically inert places you could go. There’s no vegetation and the only life to speak of is brine shrimp eggs, which are about as threatened as mosquito larvae.
There’s still a lot of trash that gets left behind which can travel with wind, but as far as impact on the land goes, it’s likely significantly less invasive than your local county fair. There’s just nothing out there for them to damage.
I’ve been pretty happy with YouTube music. I got legacied in due to Google Music shutting down and thought I would hate it, but I’ve had zero complaints. Plus, it comes with free YouTube Premium, so I haven’t seen an ad in years.
Admitting that a jackass managed to do something good is making him a golden calf? Listen to your dumbass, you literally CAN NOT accept that something good may have come from the guy. Your boner is most certainly hateful.
No one else is working on reusable rockets, there’s no one else to give the contract to. Blue Origin kind of is, but they’re focused on tourism and their rockets are so small compared to SpaceX’s that it’s like comparing a tug boat to a cargo ship.
You just have such a huge hate boner for the guy that you can’t even acknowledge the one good thing that came of him. Guess what, terrible people can sometimes do good things. And good people can do terrible things. Too many idiots these days who can’t seem to grasp such a simple concept.
If Elon Musk did not exist, would SpaceX still exist? You know the answer. The guy is a chud, but he has his place in history.
But if you don’t pre-order, they might run out of digital copies! /s
a country that barely has a navy
North Korea has the largest submarine fleet of any nation. Of course most of those are old diesel subs, but the point still stands.
I thought China already accomplished this last year?
Bank of Canada urges
I’m gonna go with “Bank of Canada doesn’t actually give a shit and just released a boiler plate statement about defacing currency.”
If you are boiling it down to the absolute basics, I guess you can try to say that. But at that point, damn near any movie where the main character is trying to stop a criminal of some sort is a “cop drama”.
Die Hard is a cop drama.
Every James Bond is just a cop drama.
Even ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit?’ is a cop drama.
Like yea, you can make that stretch, but you’re using such broad strokes that “cop drama” is meaningless.
Ah a cutscene. Let me put my controller down, grab my drink an-
“PUSH ‘A’, MOTHERFUCKER! DO IT NOW! DO IT! Aww, you fucked it up. Way to go idiot! Why did you think you could relax for even a moment?”
Sounds like you’d love and hate Phoenix Wright.
Let me give you a hypothetical that’s close to reality. Say an artist gets very popular, but doesn’t want their art used to teach AI. Let’s even say there’s even legislation that prevents all this artist’s work from being used in AI.
Now what if someone else hires a bunch of cheap human artists to produce works in a style similar to the original artist, and then uses those works to feed the AI model? Would that still be stolen art? And if so, why? And if not, what is this extra degree of separation changing? The original artist is still not getting paid and the AI is still producing works based on their style.
And what if the human running the AI likes one of these “mistakes” and tells the AI to run with it?
That episode was fantastic. This whole season has been amazing actually. SNW has been an huge breath of fresh air after decades of awful Trek’s (Abrams movies, Discovery, Picard).
They haven’t been afraid to explore heavy topics. The episodes have returned to mostly episodic, with some long term character growth thrown in. That has always been the formula Star Trek needs. An occasional big story arc can be good, but you can’t make that the entire show.
It honestly feels like the show has the potential to be up there with TNG or DS9. And unlike those two, it’s good episodes aren’t surrounded by bad or mediocre filler. I know some people are upset about the shorter seasons compared to other Trek shows, but if they manage to keep the quality consistently high, I don’t have any issue with it.
XBox and Playstation: Hyper-realism! Low latency, higher frame rate! Games for serious adult gamers! FPS and Hack&Slash are the best genres ever!
Nintendo: We make fun games for fun people. Give us your money.
Tasha knew he was fully functional, in every way.
Remember when their Dumbass-in-chief told them to get vaccinated and they booed him?
What system uses Notice instead of Perception/Investigation?
Did you know that most people won’t notice a ~2% increase in the play speed of shows, and that by doing so you can squeeze in an extra 30 seconds of ad time into a 30 minute block?
Because TV companies know this. Many of them do exactly that.
