pretty remarkable that Costco has more of a spine in fighting for the rule of law than many major universities and fancy law firms

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

Indiana Republicans have unveiled their proposal to re-gerrymander the congressional map & expand their current 7-2 majority to 9-0.

The Dem-held 1st would flip to Trump+12 & the 7th to Trump+19. All 7 GOP seats would be at least Trump+18.

Amazon has seemingly removed the Banana Fish AI dub, likely in response to the vocal outcry

It should be noted that they can remove this AI dub, or all of their AI dubs

But they can’t remove the fact that they chose to try to do it in the first place.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

Epic Games sent a DMCA notice to my online stores for my geology-themed design involving a crossed pickaxe and rock hammer that said "PICKS...or it didn't happen" because they asserted that Epic owned all rights to artwork/mention of pickaxes, right before an SVP annual conference. Eric cost me $$$

As someone who works in the tech industry--absolutely.

They are testing the waters. These are top-down orders. The ONLY way to stop it is a visceral negative reaction. Write articles. Post your rage. Email. Post. @. All those things.

Only you have the power to kill it.
Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

So apparently the administrators at Northwestern have caved to the extortionist demands of the Feds. Faculty voted 595-4 AGAINST this measure.

Garzey’s Wing is legitimately better than this, and that used to be the infamous example of a “bad” dub.

But now even that dub can be said to have had HUMAN ACTORS trying their best to understand a new medium. And I already miss that.

The earliest anime dubs from the 60s to 80s were better than this abomination.

at least we can look back and joke that it was the VAs first time dubbing and see how they grew; you can't do that with this cause it's literally soulless, this won't be a fun story to talk about it's an embarrassment

President Hernandez was serving 45 years in prison for a plot to distribute 400 tons of cocaine before Trump pardoned him. Meanwhile, Trump is murdering fishermen in small boats for allegedly smuggling far smaller amounts.
“Additionally, I Will be granting a Full and Complete Pardon to Former President Juan Orlando Hernandez who has been, according to many people that | greatly respect, treated very harshly and unfairly.”

Journalists speaking to any Administration official have a simple question to ask:

Please define “remigration”.

It’s now been officially and repeatedly stated as policy by DHS. So the American public has a right to know what that policy is.

You can HEAR the lack of intention in every line the AI slops out. At least the TTS voices on stuff like Arby n’ the Chief were funny.
