Technically speaking Far Cry 5 meets this definition. At the beginning of the game the big bad guy arrests you and says to wait while he brings you the person you’re trying to save. If you sit there for 10 minutes doing nothing he returns with the person and lets both of you go. Most people just start murdering instead

Probably Newton and Tesla. Both seemed to not really understand other people and were more focused on their specific hobbies

I’d argue tranqilizing someone is a form of “behaving” another person

If 7 Fishes doesn’t personally cause you to have a panic attack I don’t know how any show can connect with you

I’d encourage them to try standing in a closed garage with a running car to see how they feel about how dangerous greenhouse gasses are

Ted Lasso is feel good TV about a guy who takes his traditional skill set outside of his country to a different career (football coach to soccer coach) and different culture. It has a focus on being kind and embracing other cultures. Obviously OP is implying a cultural dissonance with this being popular given the American political landscape

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record did have a sandbox mode and in my opinion was the most fun game in the series. The original had an infinite time mode but you had to get the true ending I believe to unlock it

So you’re saying I should view the speed of sound in a medium like the speed of light in a vacuum? That it’s the “speed-limit” of how a wave propagates and so trying to exceed it is impossible for a physical wave?

In Horizon Forbidden West

You know, in a sane country this would be a reasonable headline. Tax dodging is often done legally if dishonestly. By hiring someone who is particularly adept at navigating those loopholes that person could effectively shut them down without opening new ones. It takes a thief to catch a thief and so on. Unfortunately this isn’t a sane country so I have to assume he’s just going to make the loopholes just straight up holes to make things even worse

As I live in the south I hear my “how are you all doing” morphing into “howya’lldoin” and there’s nothing I can do to stop it

Bubonic Plague never went away and it doesn’t make much sense to vaccinate against it. It’s still carried primarily by fleas and other small blood drinking bugs, prairie dogs can also commonly carry it. Plague is treated relatively easily by antibiotics and isn’t usually fatal or likely to cause long term damage. As the title indicates there’re usually 7-10ish cases of plague per year in America and those are rarely fatal

I’m so sorry to be the one to tell you this but 30 years ago was the mid 90s, not the 70s-80s

Honestly John Wick is pretty tame compared to Neo. When you don’t have to be concerned with physics you can make guns do a lot

Arguably Keanu Reeves, between the time machine and being able to manipulate reality it’d be hard to stop him

Do incels have some core complaints with validity? Yeah, online dating has been designed specifically to make the majority of people using it feel bad. There are genuine problems that men face in society that women don’t and they don’t get support for. However you can’t pick and choose the members of your ideology, only your choice to share it with them

The ultimate problem is that red/blue/black pill ideology is all rooted in the manosphere and incel culture. By utilizing their terminology you are associating yourself with a group of misogynists, racists, and terrorists

Which is to say someone who says “my MS makes my life difficult enough as is, so I choose not to struggle with dating on top of it” is different from “I’ve been blackpilled because these Stacys won’t consider dating below 8.5/10s”

There’re other points to be made with regards to being “too ugly to date”, why people dislike non-traditional sexualities, and modern dating culture. However, I’d bet if you went into the real world and talked to real people about specific struggles leading to deciding to no longer date without a bunch of internet words you would see a lot more support

I think we’re both dancing around the same ideas. If Pandora openAI hadn’t already opened the box and loosed the horrors upon us this would be a different conversation. Open source models do return some of the grossly abused power away from mega-corps which is always a good move. However the creators of those models need to be held to higher standards than I think we hold most projects to online

Just started with YAMS using Plex 2 months ago:

Movies: 241 TV Shows: 30

About 3.5 TB on an 8 TB drive

I’m going to disagree here. We do regulate some of those things, there’s plenty of things that are illegal on the internet and many governments including the US will hold you accountable for hosting illegal content. Gun makers have been sued on multiple occasions because of their unsafe practices. Car manufacturers are responsible for selling vehicles that meet minimum safety standards

The creator of a tool should have some level of responsibility for it, even if someone else utilizes their creation nefariously. I’m not saying Sam Altman should be sued for manslaughter when chatGPT tells someone to kill themselves (there’s plenty of other things I think he belongs in jail for, but I digress), I just think that being open source doesn’t absolve you of the responsibility of putting up guard rails. Not every invention deserves to see the light of day

I bring my water bottle to theaters and nobody gives a flying fuck. 98% of the time it is water but every now and then I do bring an alcoholic beverage and nobody ever bothers checking to make sure it’s only water
