i really liked the combat, that was the best part of the game. i remember the shotgun/biotic build was especially fun.

splinter cell, tomb raider, call of juarez

mRNA vaccine research in America? don’t need that, cancel the funding!

i was curious about the ethics of exposing people to toxic fumes (even with consent):

The key to maintaining volunteer safety is that researchers dilute pollutants to levels roughly matching those found in major urban centres. 

"[Pollution] will be created by the engine or the furnace and then diluted by filtered air down to a safe level," said Carlsten.

It will take another five seconds to find the same info using the web.

good. every additional hurdle between a suicidal person and the actual act saves lives.

Unless you also think we should censor the entire web and make it illegal to have any information about things that can hurt people, like knives, guns, stress, partners, cars....

this isn’t a slippery slope. we can land on a reasonable middle ground.

People will not be stopped suiciding because a chat bot doesnt tell them the best way, unfortunately.

you don’t know that. maybe some will.

the general trend i get from your comment is you’re thinking in very black and white terms. the world doesn’t operate on all or nothing rules. there is always a balance between safety and practicality.

I dont agree with the argument that chat gpt should "push back". They have an example in the article where the guy asked for tall bridges to jump from, and chat gpt listed them of course.

but that’s an inherently unhealthy relationship, especially for psychologically vulnerable people. if it doesn’t push back they’re not in a relationship, they’re getting themselves thrown back at them.

but:

1. way less convenient to generate dozens and dozens of unique, complex passwords. which means it’s less likely to be used/updated as much as it should be.

2. not tied into MFA which is an additional layer of security and convenience

or even if the dude was just not draped all over the lady in a public arena with tens of thousand of other people.

does this imply Elon is claiming to be "African" American?

I think you guys are saying the same thing. People want to see something they haven't seen before, even in the star wars universe.

I believe it ws $70 USD at launch.

this is nothing new, yet clearly it isn't stopping execs from (rightfully) casting diverse actors. they aren't cancelling a $200m mediocre show because of a few noisy bigots.
