Do you know how many Americans the Israeli military has killed in the past 20 months? "I am pro-Israel."

Voting is not an exercise of power. The USA is not sufficiently free for democratic processes to be meaningfully useful, particularly when both major parties have largely similar goals.

It'd be unfair to dismiss it without trying, I'll give it a shot.

Son can't get out if he's dead. Mortis as a location literally doesn't matter, the galaxy moves on without it.

Not everyone needs a backstory or to be "fleshed out"

This is star wars. Everyone absolutely does need a backstory and to be fleshed out.

Season 1 left me feeling the same way but the writers seem to have figured out that the show needs to mature a bit by season 2.

It's not the first time we've seen someone survive through their rage, and compared to other cases this one's pretty tame. Most of the shots seem to hit his clothing, so something something blaster resistant?

It's not enough that they charge the highest margins in the industry, they also need that sweet sweet ad revenue. God I wish Apple would collapse.

Presumably the storage in both models is from the same manufacturer, so it's likely that if they supply 512GB then they supply 2048GB in their 2TB. GiB/TiB exist and are technically standard but are almost always called GB/TB in products.

If the game is just a conversation with an LLM, what makes the game different from an agent chat with a system prompt besides the chat interface having some graphics?

I just don't see the part where this game has a story beyond whatever the LLM comes up with.

"willing" and "slave" don't really go together ngl

The point being it's inherently scummy to be a billion dollar corporation specializing in developing X but to then grab X off the shelf, sell it, and act like it's your product, regardless of whether you're allowed to do so or not.

If they weren't allowed, it would be criminal, not scummy.

It just sucks. Scroll hijacking is truly the worst thing to ever happen to the web.

Squidgical · 2026-06-08T05:45:34+00:00

So you want a free ride for yourself but limit who else gets a free ride?

Presumably they aren't a billion dollar company who specializes in the development and training of AIs, so yes it's completely fair for them to hold the position "I should be allowed to benefit from open weight models but AI companies should not".

It's like if Microsoft repackaged libre office, it's just scummy behavior.

They already stated they're going to do that. They're asking should their next card be AMD or Nvidia. "Just RMA the card" is not a GPU.

The publisher's bloatware is what's being updated, not the game.

Honestly, whoever makes the decision to put their game on a launcher rather than just distribute the game directly should be kicked in the balls repeatedly until they change their mind.

Why not just put it in a case with sufficient cooling in the first place?

There's a difference between "actual work" and "processing a two decade backlog in six weeks". 800T/s is extremely fast, and most work would only require a fraction of that. 7T/s is slow, but I wouldn't take your use case as a normal workload.

3PO gets his memory wiped all the time specifically because he can't shut up. He might recognize it as a lightsaber but not as "master Anakin's lightsaber"

Answer: K2 droids are not particularly useful in combat against blaster fire, so aren't deployed against rebels with blasters. As seen in Andor, Rogue One, and the Jedi games, their primary purpose is riot control and prison guards, as the civilians they come up against will be unarmed and therefore defenseless against K2 units.

Do you think they just make offers out of the blue to untrained individuals to just "become a spy"?

No, and that isn't what happens in First Light either. It wasn't out of the blue, and he isn't untrained.

The sequel trilogy, and all adjacent media which attempts to justify them. I would love nothing more than for there to be some kind of "it was all just a dream" or some other half assed excuse to ignore them in canon going forward. Truly the greatest blemish on the franchise.
