While that’s obviously very sad and tragic the purpose of criminal justice should never be vengeance or an eye for an eye. It should be about rehabilitation and reintegration. Yes it’s awful that a life was lost but functionally removing another life from society for forever is hardly a good solution.

Well I ate that one.

And here we have in Jersey #43… OH GOD WHAT IS THAT!? SOME SORT OF DISGUSTING COSMIC HORROR! MY EYES!.. MY EYES!"

“Right you are John, and what rebound game he has. Really a stand out this season for them for sure.”

They didn’t remove the cat. The angry guy has it now. It’s why he’s not angry anymore.

How much egg is gonna be on his face when he finds it one day behind a cabinet drawer?

For real. I’m dreading the day mine stops working. It’s taken some drops over the years but it’s still going strong. Legit one of the best controllers ever made. I will absolutely die on this hill.

I’m surprised they kept it up for so long honestly. It was very clear they had no fucking clue what they were doing. What with the nonsensical license that violated Github’s tos, the Dolby Code they leaked, and the fact they kept every commit public for everyone to see.

“And this kids is why you need to be very careful when operating the band saw.”

The first 💥 was an acorn hitting the car.

Law enforcement has little to do with anything here. Nobody is trying to arrest him or press charges. But a guy with a compelling rape allegation levied against him should under no circumstances be allowed to serve on the highest court. It’s utterly baffling that he’s there. But here we are.

It’s not. They’ve definitely lost lawsuits before.

I mean, isn’t that how trademark is supposed to work? I’m no expert or anything but the original creator hadn’t used the trademark in over ten years and ostensibly had no intention to do so. He also didn’t respond to the notice of opposition.

Seems to me the courts did the right thing in letting gametech have the trademark if they intended to use it.

That’s not to say that I support them making a shitty Cryptobro game but them obtaining the trademark by itself doesn’t really seem shady to me.

Even if this was just an “innocent” slip up it’s not like what he said wouldn’t have been racist otherwise. The dude is defending the false claims about Haitian immigrants. It’s still racist.

I just watched a video on Ulillillia like yesterday. I wonder what his Doom looks like.

This process is akin to how humans learn by reading widely and absorbing styles and techniques, rather than memorizing and reproducing exact passages.

Machine learning algorithms are not people and are not ingesting these works the same way a person does. This argument is brought up all the time and just doesn’t ring true. You’re defending the unethical use of copyrighted works by a giant corporation with a metaphor that doesn’t have any bearing on reality; in an age where artists are already shamefully undervalued. Creating art is a human process with the express intent of it being enjoyed by other humans. Having an algorithm do it is removing the most important part of art; the humanity.

Could only improve things honestly.

Yeah I don’t really get all the hate. Is it the greatest game ever? No not even a little. Is it good though? Yeah I think so. The combat isn’t all that deep but I’m mostly enjoying it for the writing and world building. It also helps that it’s a gorgeous game.

That being said I can’t see paying full price for it. I subscribed to ubisoft + for it and plan on canceling once I’m done with it. Playing it that way makes it cheaper than a ticket to the movies but for way more hours of pretty star wars locales.

Why is she the one having to press charges in the first place? They assaulted a government employee on government property because she was doing her job. Kinda feels like something the US government should be prosecuting for. Like one of those “no, you fucked up. Direct to federal prison for you.” Kinda things.

When I was in high school from 08-2012 basically no one stood up for the pledge. I went to an art school though so nationalism wasn’t really at all prevalent. Ironically though our mascot was a patriot.
