It's exhausting...
  • And even that was a monumental task. One vote away in the Senate, and that one guy got rid of the single payer option for the cost of his vote. Joe Lieberman if you want to look him up, the guy who started no labels political party (without a platform).

  • Why Is There an AI Hype? | The Luddite
  • Two things IMO

    1. Your data, more of it.

    2. Using power, mostly to justify the existence of their giant machinery, the Cloud. These machines are used because they HAVE to be used. Bitcoin, nft, now ai everything.

  • Oh no.
  • Ted Nugent's jailbait is probably the worst I've seen from him (in song form).

    "Well, I don't care if you're just thirteen You look too good to be true I just know that you're probably clean There's one little think I got do to you"

  • Man Booked For Using VPN In J&K's Rajouri, 3rd Such Case In 2 Days
  • "Officials said a police team was on patrolling duty on Tuesday when during routine frisking in Dharamsal area, a man was found to be using banned VPN on his mobile phone."

    "...routine frisking..."

    Thats how its done people, ban something from the internet, then check you in the real world. Good luck to us all in the "New Openess"

  • With Studios Attempting To Own Digital Likeness Forever, Lets Have a Look at Posthumous Performances

    SAG-AFTRA has gone on strike for many reasons, but one that stands out to me is an effort to make digital copies of extras and maintain the rights to use them in perpetuity. There are many implications of this, from people losing an opportunity to work, to Ethical implications ex:your likeness is used in a movie/tv show/commercial you would not want to be involved in.

    I wanted to take a look at some of the past examples of entertainers likeness' being used posthumously.

    Fred Astaire Vaccuum Commercial

    Bob Ross Paints the Mountain Dew

    Tupac Coachella Performance

    Prince Posthumous Album

    Whitney Houston Hologram Tour

    Anthony Bourdain Voicover

    Amy Winehouse Hologram Tour

    Paul Walker Furous 7

    Peter Cushing Rogue 1

    Carrie Fisher Rogue 1 Turns out this is incorrect, Fisher passed after filming of Rogue 1. It was Rise of the Skywalker

    There are definitly more examples out there, if you know of any, post them here.

    On a personal note, I find this all to be deeply unethical without specific permission granted by the entertainer.

    Some souces:

    Actors are digitally preserving themselves to continue their careers beyond the grave

    Dead celebrities are being digitally resurrected — and the ethics are murky

    YSK: No Labels is a political party trying to run a spoiler candidate for President in 2024 that should not be taken seriously.

    WYSK: There funded by dark money PACS, but some good reporting has brought out these names: David Koch, Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, Mark Cuban, Harlan Crow, and Michael Bloomberg. Some of there members are most famous for stopping big bills. Joe Leiberman, for example, single handedly stopped the single payer portion of the ACA. Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsen Simena kept the John Lewis voting rights act from passing, and famously kept the senate from repealing the filibuster.

    Cool bug duped a bunch of stuff I had stashed!

    Had a good god run going, went to go change up some wands and this happened. I don't even know how many copies of things were made, 4-6 fps in this area made it unplayable.

    I really like having a fresh start though, god runs get stale after a couple of days.
