  1. I don't really think that's the case. Yes, tech startups are investing heavily in R&D and they are putting out a lot of flashy "research" to con both investors and consumers. We aren't at the inflection point where lab research is being overtaken by corporate research, though; we're still at a place where comparatively rudimentary machine learning is being expanded while the difficult and all-important development of machine thought is still in its infancy. We can't pretend that the end goal is artificial intelligence reaching sentience in a science horror apocalyptic fashion - it has always been to seamlessly augment human intelligence. What these corporate researchers are doing is little more than accentuating the novelty aspects of AI.
  2. Festive. Can you drive on the freeway with all that, though?
  3. You too Ghosty. Say hi to your sister for me.
  4. In all fairness, anyone would look like a little man against Jabba the Trump.
  5. I hadn't noticed any.
  6. Well, Russia sure ain’t one of those poles. Multipolarity makes sense when you have individually comparable regions. Obviously, China is trying that with its aggressive South China Sea policy, and learning the hard way that gunpoint diplomacy doesn’t work. Russia has always been a pole purely because of its size - you can shut it completely out of world markets and it’ll survive on that alone.
  7. I was just cracking, not trying to make you all question your memories. I kind of thought TS and PT were similiar in that respect. I always had a problem with Pop Tarts crumbling when I was eating them: they’re solid as a whole, but when you start getting to that thin piece bounding the filling, it starts breaking apart for me. PTs are much easier to clean up after though.
  8. More skin means more bucks.
  9. First time you posted that, I couldn’t figure out how you could eat toaster strudel so wrong that shit was flaking all over your chest.
  10. We should all appreciate her body positivity.
  11. Does that mean Toaster Strudels are still only for kids?
  12. I'm appreciative of the fact that the detestable right is chewing its own up and spitting them out, but at this point, even they know the cost of fucking around is too severe to do it.
  13. No, it's the turkey. I don't season it. I can usually eat turkey sandwiches alright, but even that is limited to thinly sliced deli-meat turkey.
  14. There is no carveout i the Geneva Convention's rules of war that allow you to fire or commence a combat operation on an active hospital no matter what the reason. Doing so is always considered a war crime.
  15. Doesn't seem to be the case. They've already rebelled.
  16. Turkey. J/K. Can't have Thanksgiving without the turkey, but, it upsets my stomach for some reason.
  17. What was he smiley facing?
  18. Also, now is a good time to mention that was a really really bad sleeper hold. Not that I want anyone choked out for real, but that was like ten second of Gobert playing along.
  19. I mean, is putting Rudy Gobert in a headlock really fighting, or is it just giving your annoying little cousin a nougy?
  20. I hate the play in tournament uniforms too.
  21. ...we need. Change my mind.
  22. When the score was 15-15, I was like “ Cool, cool. Touchdowns are overrated anyway.” Then I went back to watching Antiques Roadshow.
