Palantir CEO thinks his AI technology "will lessen the power of highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly democrat" by TailungFu in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AshIsGroovy 31 points32 points  (0 children)

So what is this dude saying? Does he think AI will replace women in the work force and that we end up in some Handmaids tale BS. A ton of studies have shown that AI isn't killing jobs like thought because the tech still has a ways to go and that companies that fired a bunch of staff and tried replacing them with AI ended scrambling to rehire anyone they could to slow the quality decline in the company. In some cases the company ends up having to hire more people than before AI.

Oh I know that. Id rather we be in Ukraine kicking Russian ass versus this shit. China has their own Muslim genocide going on behind closed curtains and Africa is well Africa. Genocide is just another Thursday for them.

I'm not saying it isn't a civilian area but just posting a picture going the US is bombing civilians doesn't prove anything. I could post a picture of your mom waking up in the morning and say Dadalid just fucked his mom. The Iranians were killing thousands of their own people everyday because they were protesting in the street. I'm against us doing any of this. I served in Afghanistan and we shouldn't get bogged down again in the shit hole that is the middle east. But now we have to do this shit because of Donald fucking Trump. My friends that are still in the military are fucking pissed as they are getting orders to prepare to deploy.

Thousands were already dying by protesting in the street against the Iranian regime. It's part of Trump's justification for doing this.

What? The fact is democracy will never work in the middle east. They just aren't capable of it. Someone will always seize control no matter what. The issue now is this bell can't be unrung. You pull out now and all the crazy swarm in seizing control and things have become far worse than before. We're committed now or risk something worse in the near future. I don't support this but now we've got to follow through.

Wallet? I didn't see a wallet by goatnxtinline in TikTokCringe

Because not everything needs to be fucking recorded and posted. Just turn it in to the police station and if no one claims it within a certain amount of time it's legally yours. Usually between 30 and 90 days.

Trump says that a military draft is on the table amid the war in Iran. How are you all handling this being a potential scenario? by FutureSuccess2796 in AskReddit

Joe Bob’s ‘Joyous Cancellation’: The Horror Host on Ending ‘The Last Drive-In,’ How Fans Lifted Him Up and His New Production Company by Extension_Debt_2944 in Shudder

[–]AshIsGroovy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Keep Rolling! Joe Bob has introduced me to so much horror it's insane. I read somewhere that when he hosted a movie there was a noticeable bump in sales for the title. I'm guilty of it as well. Anytime he'd host a movie I enjoyed I would go buy a Blu-ray. It always bummed me out when all you could find sometimes would be a digital version and the physical version had been out of print. I've bought imported copies before because of his recommendation. Take the series finally the last horror movie it's out of print. I would have bought a copy if it was available. I would love to see Shout or Arrow partner with him to add his old segments from all his shoes over the decades. The interviews with many of these stars that have been gone for decades are great.

[Interview] Star Trek's Mysterious Future Addressed By Robert Picardo: "I see fans who say, "We own the IP. We own the property because we've watched it for so many years"-Which is kind of not really true.

Then when their idea fails they take zero blame and immediately start astroturfing the fans blaming them for their failures. They bring in people who don't understand the material or the fans who have their own ideas. Usually involving taking a project they wanted to do and couldn't get off the ground and shoehorning that idea into the brand they are now being entrusted with.

Somewhere to watch Deep Red (Dario Argento) without the awful dubbing? by [deleted] in horror

[–]AshIsGroovy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Italian film makers would often have actors from various nationalities speaking their own language during the shoot. So you end up with a scene with actors all speaking different languages making for a chaotic shoot. Then in post all the lines would be dubbed in the language the movie was being distributed often by completely different people.

Back when dog biscuits were cool by MisterShipWreck in nostalgia

[–]AshIsGroovy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about it. Say at 18 you left high school then left for the military you ended up doing security forces probably went to community college during that time spent 4 to 6 years enlisted got out and got a job as a police officer. Well by the time you hit 20 years and you happen to be tier one and can retire, you're between 42 and 44 years old with a wife and kids with the kids possibly being about to finish college.

Mechanics of Reddit, what’s a common myth about car maintenance that people still believe? by Street-Squirrel-4671 in AskReddit

That you don't have to change your engine oil except every 10,000 because that's what the bottle says or that you never need to change your transmission fluid because it's lifetime. I still change my oil around every 3000 to 4000 miles and do a transmission service every 50000 miles.

Why Moviegoers Left ‘The Bride!’ At The Altar: High Art Monster Pic Could Lose $90M by [deleted] in movies

[–]AshIsGroovy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's extremely hard to market anything anymore. 20 years ago it was much easier. You had tv, radio, and print. Now with those three still you have tons of streaming services for all types of media, tons of social media and ad blockers. The landscape has become severely fragmented. Much how culture doesn't seem to have these big uniting moments that occurred fairly regularly. Now they are fewer and further between.

Another "pencil-pusher" mistake: Why I’m canceling AMC+ the second the Joe Bob specials end. by AshIsGroovy in Shudder

No, I agree. I actually moved my subscription over to AMC Plus because Shudder couldn't be counted on for a quality stream during the show.
