So you didn’t actually watch past that first five minutes, then, to the part where he talks about how LNT completely breaks at low dose levels and shows, with multiple sources, how low doses actually correlate with lower cancer rates than even baseline no-dose groups.
Tell me you didn’t watch the video without telling me.
It literally addresses Japanese cancer rates and the correlation with radiation doses.
What we know is that in every situation where that data IS available, people handle it well. What you’re saying is “but what if there’s a mystery variable that we have no evidence of that would make it a disaster.”
Yeah they can’t say because who fucking knows what tariffs will or won’t be in place next week, much less when the thing launches.
In what reality would that be a healthy thing to do?
No. I know it hurts, but you need to let go.
Okay but are any AI chatbots really open source? Isn’t half the headache with LLMs the fact that there comes a point where it’s basically impossible for even the authors to decode the tangled madness of their machine learning?
Okay but also giving a kid a sex toy before their 18th birthday is how you end up on a list and have to tell your neighbors about it.
Itch delisted ALL Nsfw games, rather than sorting and qualifying content.
Well that’s certainly optimistic.
Well signatures and phone calls only go so far. When it comes to big, serious, literal life or death issues, petitions just aren’t going to get the job done and it becomes pretty pointless to waste your energy on that particular course of action.
Similarly, it’s pretty shitty to act like action on smaller issues means we’re just ignoring bigger issues. Your concern for Idaho’s treatment of disabled kids isn’t instead of wanting Israel’s genocide to stop or the Ukraine war to end.
You’re going to need more context, like what are you trying to save and how. Nobody’s going to dig through your logs just to try to figure out what you’re talking about.
So peaceful words aren’t working? Well alright, sounds like it’s time for plan B.
Joining Krafton, the publisher killing Subnautica 2 to weasel their way out of a contract they signed.
If I went to all the trouble of hacking you and I emptied your bank account and savings, I’d get $12.
If I emptied Sony’s accounts, not only would I have potentially millions or more, but I could also get industrial secrets that could be worth even more, or possibly could be used to further my own electronics industry.
One of these isn’t worth the effort.
You seem to have missed the point. Whether or not you think that would be an easy job, the whole reason you’d be there is to be the one that takes all the blame when the autopilot kills someone. It will be your name, your face, every single record of your past mistakes getting blasted on the news and in court because Elon’s shitty vanity project finally killed a real child instead of a test dummy. You’ll be the one having to explain to a grieving family just how hard it is to actually pay complete attention every moment of every day, when all you’ve had to do before is just sit there.
This technology purely exists to make human drivers redundant and put the money in the hands of big tech and eventually the ruling class composed off of politicians risk averse capitalists and beurocracy. There is no other explanation for robo taxis to exist.
There is another reason, though, and it’s much simpler. Basic greed.
There are people who see the opportunity to make more money for themselves, so they’ll do it. When it comes to robo taxis, they’re not interested in class struggles, it’s not about politics, their interest in making human drivers redundant extends only so far as increasing their customer base. These aren’t Machiavellian schemers rubbing their hands together and cackling at their dark designs coming to fruition, it’s just assholes in suits who’s one and only concern is “number go up.”
Even when it comes to their politics and to the class dynamics, their end goal is always the same. Number go up. They don’t care about what harm it could do. They’re not intent on deliberately doing more harm, they give no thought to doing less harm, they do not care. All that drives them, ever, is Number Go Up.
Remember guys, Tesla wants to have a living person sitting behind the wheel for “safety.” Don’t YOU want to get paid minimum wage to sit in a car all day, paying attention but doing nothing unless it’s about to crash, at which point you’ll be made the scapegoat for not preventing the crash?
Welcome to the future, you’re gonna hate it here.
I think a big part of why it’s funny is because the original was so very NOT funny. It was such an intensely dark shift in tone, a deliberately serious dramatic beat, in a comic that was all silly fun, completely unexpected and out of place.
If it was just a miscarriage joke then yeah it’d just be purely fucked up, and pretty quickly forgotten. It’s the meta context that turns the whole thing into more of a joke than any single comic could tell.
Even if you had heard of it, an overwatch copycat is hardly a premise to grip the attention of the masses.
If someone using xitter hasn’t noticed it got worse, it’s probably because they don’t think the Nazis are a bad thing.
