Look, I get it. I used to work on Apaches. They're cool as hell, and I promise the pilots were just as amped as the crowd.
However, safety regulations are written in blood. There's a reason they weren't supposed to fly over crowds at such a low altitude. At that altitude at that speed, if anything had gone wrong, we wouldn't be seeing people crying about how unfair it is to the pilots. We wouldn't be seeing Kegsbreath saying "we'll fix this." We'd be seeing people demanding answers about why they were flying like that. We'd be seeing crying and angry families on the news demanding justice. And we'd be seeing the Secretary of "War" throwing these pilots under the boss so fucking fast there wouldn't even be skid marks.
Costa Rica has successfully doubled its rainforest cover in just a few decades, becoming the first tropical country to completely reverse deforestation.
OK, you get a point for responding.
What I’d like for billionaires to hear is that the vast majority of world sees chatbots and the impact they’re having as toxic. The elite class believes they have special knowledge that gives you the right to shove AI down our throats anyway.
But it is not a PR problem. It is not about your message. It’s about the rational pros and cons of making an existential economic, environmental, and cognitive bet on slop generators becoming sentient.
The fact that the industry oscillates between fantasies of abundance and doomer scenarios of extinction events doesn’t help. Your proposal sounds like: “Either it will take your job or kill us all. We’re in a hurry to find out which one whether you like it or not.”
In reality, you’ve collectively tied half the economy to what amounts to a nifty software feature—a search engine for large datasets that uses sycophantic natural language as an interface—that happens to drive people who use it half crazy.
It is not a revolution, it is an addictive crutch that is having dire impacts on our ability to learn, think, and do our own jobs.
Lastly, I want you to see the massive bubble you’ve ALREADY created, and realize when this goes south, it’s not you who’s going to get hurt, it’s the rest of us.
And when that happens, it will get very ugly.
They really let a UFC fighter call our only Black First Lady a man on the White House lawn at an official White House event … while thousands cheered and the biggest podcaster in the world smiled.
There is no economic policy fix for this. Many of these people are just racist.
James Dolan invited his friend Donald Trump to watch Game 3. In order to do that, they have to ban the organic, historically joyous parties happening outside MSG for fans who can't afford to be inside. Modern sports in a nutshell
This the quintessential story of how sports reflects the state of the world. Thousands of fans have waited for Game 3 their whole lives and now they’re priced out of entering the game and can’t even celebrate outside because one billionaire gets to attend the game for free.
@Dr_DewSweep@DalkeKong3 Mfs acting like no one ever got coached to “stay on your feet” growing up. This shit is the purpose of using a pump fake. Get a a grip bozo
Three months ago today, a war began that no one voted for — and the cost has been paid by people who had no say in it.
Thousands of civilians have lost their lives. Thirteen U.S. servicemembers will never come home to their families.
Americans across this country and our city have watched prices rise at the pump and the grocery store, their budgets strained by a conflict launched without a single vote of Congress.
Every life lost abroad and every dollar squeezed from a working family here is part of the same reckless bill, handed to the people who could least afford it by those who will never pay it themselves.
I opposed this war from the first day. I oppose it still. It must end.
No flagrant 1 on Carter Bryant there is INSANE. That’s worse than Plumlee last game and the league upgraded that. Dude straight truck sticker Shai and just a common foul.
There is no way to investigate it and there’s no way to prove it from a league standpoint but anyone with above a room temp IQ knows exactly what happened last night.
You guys spin every narrative you possibly can to make the Thunder the villains when we have clear villains right here.
Wemby plays the “cool, calm, and collected Shaolin monk” character when he’s winning, but we’ve seen him throw an elbow at a player’s neck and put a hit on another Thunder player the moment he’s not getting what he wants.
Wemby is a dirty player who flops and foul baits like any other star, and putting him as the face of “ethical basketball” is laughable and disingenuous
