“it would have been quicker too had the victim not resisted so much.”

Sam started this. The comparisons would have come up anyway, but it’s a lot harder to dismiss the claims from users when your CEO didn’t tweet “her” before the release. I don’t myself think the voice in the demos sounded exactly like her, just closer in seamlessness and attitude, which is a problem itself down the road for easily convinced users.

AI companions will be both great and dangerous for those with issues. Wow, it’s another AI safety path that apparently no company is bothering exploring.

Cabin in the Woods

Irony, since Scarlet had dubbed over the original voice actor Samantha Morton because in post Spike Jonze realized the voice needed something “different”. So in the movie they needed to turn the dial up a bit, while in reality they started at 11 and had to dial it back.

These people seem to think the meme about the spider picture sent in an email as payment was a how-to and not a joke.

Oil change, had to drop the round metal filter with I think 6 nuts. Don’t forget to get a new gasket. Valve clearance adjustment, a constant regular thing with these. Not hard, just tedious and sometimes the spring holding each valve cover on could be a pain to pop loose. Transmission level check (that was fun). I loved my Beetles, learned a lot about car maintenance (by necessity lol) but I wouldn’t have another at my age now.

It’s people from the North driving in the South, with the sudden realization that the snow that fell and started to melt yesterday refroze and isn’t snow anymore. Anyone can drive on snow…but snow doesn’t stay snow in the South.

This also applies to any Jeep/4x4 drivers who seem to think physics works different for them.

Hang on. I misplaced my surprised face…oh, here it is.

Huh, who would have guessed?

I did comment that enforcement seemed to be part of the problem here, yes. Do the laws need to be more strict? I doubt that will fix any enforcement, since that’s the failure.

Guns are regulated. How much regulation, who gets allowed, what types of guns, and if the regulations are being enforced, those are the real questions. This warrant and shooting is a result of a law that wasn’t enforced well, as they had already broken the law once and yet someone sold/gave them guns again.
