Nope I have zero concerns about “ghost guns” because the people with 3D printers are usually not in poverty, and poverty is the root cause of most crime. And because of how many already manufactured guns are in circulation, it’s like a drop in an ocean.
Maybe he was on PCP like that guy from Wu Tang who cut off his wang
That much Big Brother spying activity is not necessary to achieve a similar goal. Combine a smart cap for pill bottles with an alarm reminder system. Smart pill bottle cap can show if the bottle has been opened that day or some such type of simple usage tracking. Alarm on the phone or watch, and/or something like that on their refrigerator for reminders.
Good point, I was just thinking about cars. Cars are what typically takes the blame for pollution, but it’s really more the big industries doing it at scale
I think this is the microphone spies coming out in the open. Google recently filed some similar creepy tech patent if I recall correctly. It’s the same scheme of recording all audio all day, and they would offer you a list of important things to remember or notes on the day.
I never believed in the past when the nay-sayers denied that them listening to our device’s microphones all day was feasible. I’d already seen too many instances of the audio spying being used to direct ad content to people. They are voice-printing us all from every available audio source. They already know when you say something in the presence of someone else’s phone.
People really have to break these chains of phone addiction, and just allowing them to do what they want on our phones.
Also on the comparison of “on fire” vs used as fuel - IDK about the emissions during the refining process, but when gas or diesel is burnt as fuel in a car, there are typically several emissions control systems reducing the pollution produced
“302 senators have died in office in the past” … really shows how the Senate has too many old bastards staying in office too long. They should be retired while they fade away into death, instead of making important decisions for the country that they will never have to worry about the consequences of.
I think it does affect PS3, because I booted mine up a couple months ago and it would not let me log in or play my downloaded games. I have to reactivate my account or some bullshit. Should have just left its network cable unplugged
Put them down next to a turd so that the camera can only see the turd

That sounds like a confession of committing a criminal conspiracy
The “AI boom” concept doesn’t make sense to me. What do they think we need the “AI” for? I find that I don’t need it for anything, and as I’m “being left behind” without using it, I still wonder what they think I should need it for.
In my experience the “AI” chatbots are useful for people who don’t know how to do anything. But I’ve spent my life learning how to do everything I ever wanted to learn how to do, so I just don’t need that.
They could do that, but it would cost them more money to provide that convenience to the customer. Since they are high AF on their own hype for that release, they have no motivation to do that.
Nothing wrong with that, except that it’s weird. Reselling games is not important to me though, I just keep what I get and add to the collection. Still have a physical boxed copy of Halo for Mac OS X in my attic even.
Being able to share the game with family or friends would be a plus. I can do that with my Steam library without discs too.
Games like that don’t really fit on discs anymore when they are probably over 100GB. So you get a disc and put it in the console and then it downloads 150GB more content onto the console, that means the disc is just a license key anyway.
What is a bigger issue is that they want to charge $80+ for a game. I’m not going to pay that much for any game.
Here’s the larger problem: other people will have this bullshit turned on and the microphones will receive the speech audio of everyone in their vicinity. It’s fully breaking consent to be recorded for others.
I do not care what they might say about “listening only to the owner” or whatever they will claim. If it’s recording with a microphone, then it will receive sound.
Big Brother Google is always listening, and probably would sell anything they’ve recorded to make a buck.
Maybe a lot of people in 2-party consent required jurisdictions should write in to google to state that they explicitly decline to consent to being recorded by google’s bullshit
Just put a sign up outside that says “Not for AI” or “These are porn servers not AI”
The evil fat orange man archetype.
Lynch really made the Harkonnens appropriately horrific, better than the new movies in this and some other aspects IMO.
