I literally choose all my books sight unseen from library website or online shop websites based solely on recommendations or prior author experiences. The cover art plays zero role in my decision to buy.

Weiner kaiju, lol…

Don’t touch my stash, man!

Hell yes! Thanks for that, made my day.

Only two days until the new album drops too, but who’s counting? 😹

So good news: this item got procedurally removed.

Bad news? There’s so much other terrible stuff in the bill now, like basically destroying the solar industry via removing tax breaks for solar projects and apply taxes to any solar from China. Musk has been freaking out about this all day as gasp, it could actually affect his personal businesses.

But unlike Google’s version, Claude can accidentally regurgitate the entire text or passages from it, yes?

So it’s not really internal and this judge is an imbecile, correct?

(I know that previous “AI” engines have been tricked into returning the original paintings and faces of people that they had ingested, so I assume this is also a possibility for this “AI” too.)

Ya think??

Oh no. Anyways…

I don’t know, this is going to piss of a lot of hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts who tend to vote more conservatively too. At least worth writing your congress critters and spreading the word.

You assume I was for the 20 year genocidal war? Why? IMHO it was a huge fucking mistake too.

I’d have ever so much more sympathy if they hadn’t just spent over a year genociding Palestine…

About freaking time someone called them on it.

That would be the dumbest thing he could possibly do to himself. Honestly I hope he is smarter than that because Putin would turn him upside down and shake him until every last nickel falls out of his pockets, and put it all into the war effort against the Ukraine.

“Agreed” is doing a LOT of heavy lifting here. Like for values of a long, drawn out war and slaughter coast to coast with many, many broken promises…

Nope, nope, nope. It’s not like I was ever a Telegram fan, but never again, nope.

Humorous rogue cyborgs aren’t super common, alas. The tongue-in-cheek humor of it reminds me of Stainless Steel Rat a bit, and occasionally Larry Niven’s stuff too. His Gil Hamilton character is pretty droll at times, and it comes through in some of his short stories about him. (For pure humor from Niven, try “The Flight of the Horse”.)

You might try Strata by Terry Pratchett, which is a bit in both camps? It’s a one-off, but a lot of fun. Can’t say it has anything at all to do with rogue cyborgs though.

Egads, I was unaware that was as thing too. That’s even stupider!

I feel like that was an engineered perception based in a vocal group of idiots, TBH. I played the second game at launch and it rocked me to my core. The story was strong in my opinion.
