I was literally touching my penis when my eyes alit on this post.
My first thought was that this was an incredible coincidence, and worthy of remark, but now I’m starting to wonder if maybe I’m subconsciously handling this thing more than I realize.

We prefer Speed tape. It’s a little stronger but just as ubiquitous.

I’ve worked in commercial aviation for 20+ years. In that time I have flown on hundreds of trips, on aircraft of all sizes, ages and manufacturers. I have visited crash sites mid-cleanup and had the odd sensation of smelling familiar airplane smells perverted by burned Jet-A. I have provided logistical support to families grieving the loss of their loved ones due to the actions of the airline I worked for. In other words, I have spent a lot of time highly aware of how catastrophic a crash can be, but I never felt unsafe flying in all that time because the system itself still felt safe.
Last week my kid flew to Florida, and I have never been so nervous. I almost told them to cancel but that would have freaked them out even more and made me look crazy. But the system doesn’t feel safe now. It is not in safe hands.

I just started playing this based on a similar thread I saw earlier this week, and I haven’t put it down. It shows its age but it is an fantastaic and absorbing game. Easy to switch between mission focus and just killing Nazis for fun.

Then maybe don’t tell someone who does live here to keep their head down. Especially if you’re from where I think you’re from. You should be exhorting us to learn from your history and to not let this overtake us - because the fascists will have learned from your history as well.

Push for good change like calling your congress person and complaining? Campaigning for a progressive candidate in the mid-terms?
If you’re going to pretend for youself like it’s 2016, then just spare us. Your silence would be better than lumping all direct action into throwing molotovs.
When you dismiss the option set rather than productively try to add to the option set, any rational person would rightfully question your actual intentions.

Your vote for the status quo has been registered, but please note the status quo has been a decade-long continuous slide into fascism, so that is what you will be cosigning by keeping your head down.

I love spoonerisms and I have an almost nervous habit of making them up on the spot at random times. Bugs the hell out of my wife.

Just thank goodness it’s illegal to kill yourself in a car without a drivers license. That simple law has saved untold lifes.

As an American, I am going to dine on this single example as if it disproves the idea that we are insular and provincial hicks for the next decade.

No one is really talking about AI as inherently bad. It’s current implementation is impossible to separate from consolidated ownership by big tech and environmental rape in the name of delivering a technology that has no clear use case to the end consumer yet.
Just because people don’t want unpack all of that nuance for pedants like you doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
Until AI means something different than the transgressive genAI integration and resource hoarding of big Tech - indeed until AI is no longer synonymous with Big Tech, then all of this wretched handwringing you’re engaging in over the distinction between the two will continue to be useless, meaningless, and fucking annoying.
Spend your time on something useful. Would you like a new prompt?

If you think it has nothing to do with the working class struggle you need to go back to square one and begin again. There isn’t much that isn’t impacted by the rise of AI.
