Every single word of this from @Tim_Vickery is spot on. You literally couldn’t say it better.
England had Argentina exactly where we wanted them and gave them the game.

Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.
The internet reacts to Sony announcing it's killing off PlayStation game discs:
"Incredible of PlayStation to announce the end of physical disc production the week after they deleted all the movies you bought digitally from your account"

People no longer read books, they no longer watch movies, they use AI to write their texts and play their video games for them. Big Tech is trying to remove all the joy & humanity from the world, and you have to resist. You must make a conscious effort to live humanly.
People who hold their phone in front of them and shout at it like the fools on The Apprentice do should have to pay a hefty public disturbance fine. Just use it like a fucking phone and hold it to your ear, you stupid pricks.
Getting AI to write your code and then firing most of your coders is so, so stupid. I know management wankers don't know any different, but downsizing for AI is a disaster in waiting. I for one have zero sympathy for all the managers that are about to lose their livelihoods.
If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.
It’s crazy how in the 2000s we thought the internet was ushering in an age of universal knowledge. Fast-forward twenty years and most people don’t know how to read. Short-form video killed the text-based internet, and the reading of texts is the only reliable way to learn.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)
I'm so glad Val Kilmer got to display his comedy chops again. He was just brilliant alongside Robert Downey Jnr in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang as Gay Perry. Shane Black's always awesome dialogue was a perfect fit for Val.
