Toying with LemonEmmaline as a new screen name, if only because my most common experience with the name change is everyone being unable to pronounce it.

It's difficult to criticize a black box system, but the matchmaking in ARC does seem very off. I enjoy a skill matched server with a friendly/aggro mix, but since I never shoot first, I completed my entire second expedition in a boringly quiet week that felt like hanging in a bad chatroom.

That goes *double* if I'm dead and the "copy" of me is being used in court to justify punishment for my killer(s) or make any kind of political point. That's a goddamn chatbot with my face on it, it can be made to say anything, they are desecrating my memory and I hereby endorse suing them over it.

For the record, if anyone ever makes an "AI" version of me based on their records of who I am and what I've said & done, I can assure you, there is information in my head that has never come out of my mouth or fingers and I am not me without it.
THAT THING IS NOT ME AND DOES NOT SPEAK FOR ME.
This year marked the first time the AI avatar of a victim—in this case, a dead man—has ever addressed a court, and it raises many questions about the use of this type of technology in future court proceedings.

A surprisingly good year! Moved back to my favorite city, made new friends and relationships, learned to cook, read a fuckload of books, expeditioned an ARC raider, beat every Arkham campaign and played a ton of other cool games. The worlds getting worse but we continue to live well in defiance.

Wow, you can *feel* the shitty upscaling radiating off this promo image. All the eyes are fucked. The hair and textures and fine details are fucked. Even the title card looks bizarre, like they roughened up all the edges and then tried to cut to a clean straight line

People who argue "who cares it's just for kids" all I can say is fuck right off. Kids deserve thoughtful, well-made movies that challenge them just as much as adults do. Kids aren't stupid, and they remember how movies affect them basically forever.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

Trying to keep an arc raiders trials position without getting third partied to hell and back is proving to be the most frustrating experience I've had in games in a long while.

This is perhaps the most reasonably-presented and accessible version of my thoughts over the last few years I've seen anyone else make. Drew very passionately says many of the same things I've been thinking to myself & occasionally ranting at people about. Check it.

Hidden Bunker seems a wild miss in comparison to ARC Raiders many successful swings. People trapped on a tether listening to shrieking modem sounds, queueing for the better part of 20 minutes.

ARC raiders is remarkably consuming. Stage 5 of caravan after joining weeks late and playing unbelievable hours - and eagerly looking forward to resetting to do it all again.

i am willing to compromise by just insisting on prison terms for ICE employees. that is the moderate position.
if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.

Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...
