This is about Palworld AI accusations, but I'm also a little bit salty everyone was cheering on Nintendo for giving them shit, and the best they could ultimately come up with was some dubious software patent shit
'I don't like this thing' is not an excuse for that kind of behaviour

We already got a preview of this with the Palworld stuff last year. It wasn't pretty.

What they're banking on is the same phenomenon that happened with Twitter. Inertia or whatever is going to enable CBS to retain a portion of the already captured audience and corrupt them. It's not a bad bet.
This should likely go in my little Bari at CBS thread but I just don’t know what she thinks pulling a story two hours before air is going to do for her cause. The people who watch 60 Minutes for the journalism are the kinds of people who care about this shit, and the people who would cheer it don’t!

There are few things in this world I find more entertaining than smart people making good points in incredibly crude language
i love how it's possible to make an elementary error in a proof and them defend it by saying "it turns out that i am responsible for an entire literature contingent on exactly the same answer." like rebutting the idea that you pissed your pants by archly asserting that you also took a huge shit.

meanwhile, a degenerate research program may *once* have attempted to engage with the world, but in the face of repeated predictive failure, it finds cunning ways to cut itself off from actually having to ever deal with recalcitrant reality
it stagnates, it repeats itself, it becomes--tedious.

cheering on an irrational harassment mob that's currently pointed at people you dislike while admitting that they're behaving irrationally isn't actually you doing a solid for the people whose irrational mob you're approving of, btw. that's you being sadistic & having others take the risk for you

This is worth reading because I do think there are Christian Nationalist elements at work in Alberta politics and that’s a problem.
However, the article also compresses a few too many things in ways that are a bit unhelpful.

Christian Nationalism and the Remaking of Canada’s Political Right | Perspectives Journal
Faith and progressive politics are not inherently incompatible. But the rise of Christian nationalism is putting public policy at odds with religion.

Just reflecting re: those ridiculous WH plaques that Trump is the first President in half a century to come anywhere near claiming the worst-of title from Buchanan. He may claim it yet.

Guess we can add Indigenous treaty rights and Canadian environmental regulations to the growing list of complex topics that Matt Yglesias believes he can wave away with a stroke of his mighty keyboard
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Wheez, choke. You think getting a solar, wind, gas, coal, *anything* plant or transmission unit permitted is hard??? Probably the last new hydro plant in 🇨🇦 outside Quebec has been built, but some can up-powered. Rain & snow supply is becoming highly variable too.

It makes me sad that this game has apparently insurmountable English localization issues, because it means a bunch of people will never get to enjoy it. Celebrate your fluency by playing!

Didn't play Disco Elysium or Outer Wilds when they first came out, so my fave at the time was probably Three Houses.
If you asked me to chose a favorite between the former two now, I doubt I could do it even if you put a gun to my head.

people crying over chomsky on this website are repulsive frankly. he was quite plainly a piece of shit long before anything related to epstein came out
fuck right off with this too please.
Chomsky has been quite clear that he doesn’t think his relationship with Epstein is anyone else’s business and we can and should draw adverse inferences from that.
sorry he wrote some things you liked; bold thinkers can be monsters too.

Noam Chomsky’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein display none of the fawning chatter found from, say, Larry Summers. And he does not appear to have been co-opted by whatever access Epstein provided.
