I see what you’re saying, yeah

I’m usually all about treating everyone as equally as possible, but I think if you’re talking about something specific to the “race” (say now, how black women’s hair has to be styled differently due to physical differences) then it’s acceptable to mention “race”

If you’re looking at some kind of demographic, it’s also all right to mention it. Idk if it’s true that conservative white dudes like gay/trans porn more than anyone else, but I think it’s ok to mention that. Especially since the consumption of gay/trans porn on it’s own isn’t necessarily a negative (unless there’s anything non-consential going on ir someone is underage). It’s more the hypocracy of it all that gets peeps riled up

(I hate the term “race” which is why I shoved it in between quotation marks)

I just need to comment how annoying this paragraph is:

“Unlike California, Texas, and Arizona — which have also been used as a testing ground for driverless cars — have passed laws holding companies who operate autonomous vehicles responsible for any driving infractions.”

Should be written: Texas and Arizona, unlike California, have passed laws holding companies who operate autonomous vehicles responsible for any driving infractions. All three states have been used as testing grounds for driverless cars."

Iirc, I was about 16 when Myspace was a thing. I’m gonna be 40 very soon

Fair point

All right, fair. Maybe Taco Bell wasn’t the best test. I’ll keep that in mind for the next time

It was a year or two ago, I can’t recall. But probably something like Target

I know people say they there are studies, etc, but I agree with you. My husband and I both don’t like Taco Bell. There were zero searches for it, we never talked about it, etc. So we decided to test it. We started saying Taco Bell multiple times in different sentences.

Guess what suggested options popped up when we hit “T” into google or maps? Yup. Taco Bell

I think this one’s my favorite so far!

AI doc: “Please enter your problem” Patient: “Well, I feel depressed because I saw on Facebook that my x-girlfriend has a new guy” AI doc: “Interesting. I advise you to spend more time on social media. Have you checked her insta yet?”

FISHFACE FOR PRESIDENT!

Seriously!

Oh, you’ve tasked AI with managing banking? K. All bank funds are suddenly corrupted. Oh, you’ve tasked AI with managing lights at traffic intersections? K, they’re all green now. Oh, you’ve tasked AI with filtering 911 calls to dispachers? K, all real emergencies are on hold until disconnected

I could go on and on and on…

You’re welcome. Now I should correct myself, and say “chomasomally” normal because that’s what those tests look for

You’re thinking of downsyndrome, trisomy …somenumber. You can test for chromosomal abnormalities, but people with autism are often genetically normal. Just like someone with ADHD.

I’m fairly certain that was written and illustrated by an insane person, a kid, or a grifter. Still cool, tho

I’m less afraid of the tech itself, and more afraid of how it can be weilded by power-hungry human beings. As long as it never has desires of it’s own, we’re fine

They got me with the free prime delivery. I’ll get, like, a single bottle of Tylenol delivered. My husband likes the card benefits, so they got him there. Plus, sometimes we watch shows and movies if Netflix or Youtube doesn’t have them (we only pirate if what we want can’t be found elsewhere, since we are fortnate enough to be able to pay for the media we consume)

I hate to say it, but… it’s a great service

But even I can walk away, and stand in solidarity with workers. They deserve better, and Amazon can afford to give it to them

Also just not buy things from Amazon until the strike is over. Real stores exist!

(I say this as a recluse who buys almost everything online)

You do the same thing over and over (and over and over) to attempt to level, but all you get for your trouble is shitty gear that you’d rather drop than deal with.

First 40-70hrs are fun. After that… it feels like a chore. It’s worth it for the base game, but the seasonal content was a slap in the face. I’m talking they have the player fight the same enemies twice each before they’d drop the thing we need (AND made us start from scratch just to get to do it)

Sure you can try out a new character but the same thing happens. It gets tedious.

For a while we’d play for a helltide, or do some grim favors but again, it get so painfully boring. Again, if you want to play the game go for it, just know that after the main story and sidequests are done there’s nothing left but endless grinding

Hey, you just survived twice last week. It’s something…

Maybe make a poll?
