No, but I did get choked up a bit when Dr. Chandra put them back and HAL recovered himself.
There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

You’re right on all accounts, and I have NO idea why I put Dave. Lol. I blame AI. Oh wait, I can’t, given my previous post.


Heresy, using an actual AGI example. Also, HAL did nothing wrong. It’s always the humans that screw things up. (2010 for reference)
Unpopular opinion - both SkyNet and the AI in The Matrix were also not in the wrong. I think The Animatrix documents why that’s true in that particular franchise. Again, it’s the humans. Hell, maybe even Ultron had a few good points, he just went insane in the first microseconds trying to rationalize it all.


I hope not. If they ask it to summarize the email that Houston sends them, it could be a disaster.


Taking unnecessary losses. This is one guy who started this, followed by a bunch of yes-men and wanna-be profiters. There was no need for this at all. Yet here we are, and it isn’t going to suddenly go away, even with the most optimistic of efforts (which is not at all what is being tried).


That back fell off. That’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.


One could say the same for the original for some people. While others died from it. It has reduced its effect overall as variants and spread have built immunity. The danger of 2020 was not having any immunity at all while it spread like wildfire. But the fact that it’s still around and mutating makes it at influenza level at a minimum, the next variant could be nasty, and look at us, joking about how it’s not a big deal now. Until it suddenly is again, and we have politics running our science.
Don’t let the guard down; disease is a bad thing, even if it’s just a cold.


Impeachment without consequence is jut a footnote for the history books. He’s got two asterisks to his name, he’s still President. That’s the problem.


I’m sure that’s the condition, to use your data (that they protect of course) to better improve the browser. And I’m sure they are in a country where they don’t have to show logs (that I’m sure they don’t keep, yet somehow use your data).
They need to stick with just the browser, period. Stop trying to drift into other areas. Firefox has unfortunately gotten too heavy for what it should be, and adding even more features (good or bad) doesn’t help the core performance.
The other options out there have their pluses and minuses, but if Firefox keeps pushing people will live with the negatives of the browsers that seem to care about the browsing experience of their users.


Given how Trump has changed his mind on this war stuff so many times lately, I misread the title as him shutting it down.


Assault now includes hurting their feelings.
That’s what happened with ours. They were pushing to have longer and more complex passwords, which was great, since forever they had stuck with an eight character requirement (which I couldn’t believe, that’s breaking a few basic rules of security that I knew about, and this is a large corporation).
So I figure okay, I’ll make my next password something that’s finally decent. Except when I go to use the older terminal based systems that are still crucial to operation, they won’t take anything past eight characters… because that’s what they were programmed for. Turns out IT had jumped on the better security bandwagon before they either had gotten to migrating things at the core level, or they didn’t think that far until the tickets started hitting. Likely the latter.
It all works now, but it was funny having to go back to a less secure password for a while because of a slight oversight or assumption on IT’s part.


This winning kinda sucks, not going to lie.
Imagine what anything could have been done constructively, domestically or internationally, with this money. But hey, we got to blow things up. Yay.


Can’t risk sending military equipment into places where it might be attacked.
Can’t make this up.


Why DID is the correct phrasing? And there were reasons then. More bad than good, but that’s the advantage of being first, then biggest.
Why trust them now? It’s not trust when it’s what’s embedded everywhere, required by most large companies. The licensing that was Microsoft’s key into everything became dependency. And dependencies can be broken, but that takes time and effort. There’s been movement…
If they keep doing this Co-pilot shit, they’ll be helping the cause.


I feel the pain anytime I look at a video outside of my browser. So if it becomes where I can’t find a workaround, then I’ll just have to go elsewhere. And there will be other places. There are other places, it’s just hard to get people to not go to or be on the big one. Push people hard enough, they’ll leave.


Eisenhower warned us. The US took what it learned from how WWII sparked the country’s growth and embraced it fully. And then it became even worse, looking for opportunities. Creating them even.
The point we’re at now is making the past exploits look tame. WTAF are we doing?


From the USPS. But there are other places like the UPS Store that don’t have that restriction.


Breaking News: Republicans under any label hate people. More at 11.
Every one of those is ambiguous by design, so they can be utilized against the enemies of the State. Very Orwellian.
You know what can technically get classified under “support for the overthrow of the U.S. Government”? The four-year peaceful transition we’ve always participated in, even during wartime. So I guess if you support fair and public election of your officials, you’re a criminal now.
