Apply liberally. Bought a video game and expected a feature not common in the genre or the developer’s history? Watched a movie but had no idea what the director’s style is? Bought a smartphone and wanted features that brand has never had (or maybe the industry has moved away from)? Bought motion cameras but didn’t realize you couldn’t just watch the clips they record unless you buy their stupid cloud service…

That last one is me 😮‍💨

The new contract ensures “safety guardrails” around AI, which includes “consent and disclosure requirements for AI digital replica use and the ability for performers to suspend consent for the generation of new material during a strike”.

Great to see. Now we’ll see if this actually ends all of the voice actor strikes in the industry. I know there were a bunch that started due to this strike but actually hinge on the company’s stance on allowing non-union members to remain non-union.

She recounts fending off robbers and highwaymen by reciting songs or poems in her native language, French. Together with her unfamiliar European looks, that convinced the often very superstitious Tibetan robbers that she was a witch and to better not mess with her.

…are the “few dozen” songs the top 40…?

It’s a weird brand of comedy. Watched one episode with my wife, and while I enjoyed it, she said she wasn’t nearly high enough for it.

I resonate with this. I’m perfectly comfortable with my gender identity but I’ve always kind of felt like an imposter. I get along fine with guys, but I’ve always felt more ‘at home’ with girls.

Like, when I’m hanging out with guys I’m pretending to be a cis male, and I’m always aware of my demeanor, and try to match the energy of who I’m with.

With women I don’t have to be conscious about it, I just speak how I want to and the only thing I’m worried about is whether they feel like I might be hitting on them or something.

Honestly, it’s probably just a minor social anxiety lol

Shit, does the name Ryan derive from Aryan…?

You’d still want induced flow for better heat transfer though

We’re truly fucked :|

I mentioned Soylent a while back and someone commented that it was slop. I guess people just aren’t into that.

Wait they seriously flipped to “It never existed?” Was it dreamed up out of nothing likeHunter Biden’s laptop?

It was always Sonic for me
