I think the issue they’re raising is that these clips aren’t from porn, they’re from movies that happen to have nude scenes. They argue that taking the nude scene out of the larger context is molesting them.

I can understand not liking it, but I don’t see how it would be unexpected.

Lol, all guns have zoom

I was thinking for now you need a ptz gun with a separate human controller from the human flight controller.

Every business’s biggest expense is labor. Skilled labor costs more. The people in charge like it when you save money.

I think it’s wrong. But only because the interests of the people who own the machines and businesses diverge from the worker’s interests. I’d like to see more worker cooperatives. If the workers own the machines, then it’s good when things are automated.

I also don’t believe anything will ever be truly automated, or that it’s a good idea to try.

All that to say we don’t have to resort to an explanation of “managers must hate engineers” to understand why they would want to eliminate positions.

I don’t think it’s just managers saying hey we could automate such and such a thing away. It’s human nature to think “how could I improve this” which almost immediately leads to “if I get this right it could mean no work at all”

Take it as feedback. If no one’s laughing maybe don’t make that joke.

Even in Texas I bet most people wouldn’t like having to fend off surprise lethal air attacks while they’re doing yard work or whatever

If Chinese companies really are unfairly competitive because their government backs them, how about Western governments back their own electric car manufacturers? Instead of just making other products more expensive…

I did like it when the site was pay walled

What does “charter” fighters mean in this context?

There’s no way this isn’t a known spell somewhere within the wizarding world. Another example of the shitty education system found in the Harry Potter universe

I learned cursive but I’m sure have forgotten how to write it, especially some of the capital letters. Thing is learning it now is really just for backwards compatibility. Yes, it’s faster to write in cursive when writing by hand, but how often is that coming up these days, for most people?

Gather round, children, time to learn how to use a dial up modem, and after that we’ll go over Morse code.

You’re right it’s good to prepare young people for challenges. Still, that should mean challenges that would come up anyways, not artificially making things more difficult.

It’s good to know how to read an analog clock, just like it’s good to be able to read cursive. But both of them are outdated and aren’t inherently required in day to day life. Inserting them into a testing situation that’s meant to test something else is creating an unnecessary challenge.

I’d say the body language is pretty clear. The one putting her hand on the other’s thigh, that one putting her hand on the other’s arm, they’re making eye contact, they’re not screaming, their faces are very close like they’re going in for a kiss.

Firefox seems fine now and it’s open source. I get that no software is maintenance free, but how much work actually needs to be done each year?

What is Trump Pedo Files?

Fingers crossed I’ll never be involved with any live burials

Just like there’s no such thing as an unbiased person, there’s no unbiased instance. Better to know what you’re getting into than to assume what you’re reading isn’t coming from a particular point of view.
