What happened with that change to signage laws that was going to require tens of millions of dollars to update eg “Canadian Tire” to “Magasin Canadian Tire” and whatnot?

How does The Wind Rises fit into this?

the guy who says the ideal society is Mordor

I’m sorry, who with the what now?

For those experiencing the same confusion as myself: those are not sources for the orphan/survivor benefits story, they’re possible reasons why the media might not be reporting the story.

I’m going to search for the beached Lookfar. If memory serves, it was abandoned on Selidor, just past the Dragons’ Run

The Black Mirror episode “Fifteen Million Merits” makes this point in a (typically) very chilling way.

It’s actually kind of worrisome that they have to guess it was his code based on the function/method name. Do these people not use version control? I guess not, they sure as hell don’t do code reviews if this guy managed to get this code into production

My first thought! Although apparently it was designed to end in PvP. One of the best seasons in my book, definitely the top sidequest season.

Honestly puzzled, why is the grocery store so awful? Inflation, or is it a social anxiety thing?

Yeah I see what you mean. There’s a decent argument to be made that something like reasoning appears as an emergent property in this kind of system, I’ll admit. Still, the fact that fundamentally the code works as a prediction engine rules out any sort of real cognition, even if it makes an impressive simulacrum. There’s just no ability to invent, no true novelty, which – to my mind at least – is the hallmark of actual reasoning.

To paraphrase Gordon Ramsay, “a skilled vet could still save it”

Odd. Canada here as well, loads up a bit slow but gets there after maybe 10 seconds. No login required.

There’s an expression in French, “enculage de mouches”. Literally means “fucking flies in the ass” and, figuratively, refers to being impossibly pedantic and nitpicky. Closest equivalent in English would be “splitting hairs” I think

That’s an odd way of spelling “taint tanning”

That didn’t bother me but “Excel database” really rustled my jimmies

Best read with a British accent, naturally:

There was a young girl from Nic’ragua
Who smiled as she rode on a jaguar
They returned from the ride
With the young girl inside
And the smile on the face of the jaguar
