Cold fucking War
Czar of Russia
The Czar wasn't around during the Cold War for ... reasons.
"Hm, there's a couple guys spray painting slurs on my neighbor's house ... better close the blinds so I don't have to look at it."
My guess is the CTO of Chat GPT: Mira Murati. based on a mix of how she's appeared in interviews, including this one with the WSJ.
Any work made to convey a concept and/or emotion can be art. I'd throw in "intent", having "deeper meaning", and the context of its creation to distinguish between an accounting spreadsheet and art.
The problem with AI "art" is it's produced by something that isn't sentient and is incapable of original thought. AI doesn't understand intent, context, emotion, or even the most basic concepts behind the prompt or the end result. Its "art" is merely a mashup of ideas stolen from countless works of actual, original art run through an esoteric logic network.
AI can serve as a tool to create art of course, but the further removed from the process a human is the less the end result can truly be considered "art".
I've had good beer and crappy beer in Germany: the same as the USA.
Turns out the idea that "small breweries generally make good beer, and industrial breweries make garbage" tends to be true worldwide.
Late teens, maybe early 20s.
How close am I?
We still kind of owe you for everything you guys did in the revolutionary war.
Tell you what: when the time comes to fight the fascists again we'll send your resistance movement munitions if you send us dope "uniforms" for ours.
Various other things like leaves, rags, sponges, or leftover paper. Failing that a bare hand works: manners dictating you wash it after.
Some cultural hangups on the left hand being "unclean" stem from those cultures using that hand for hygienic reasons.
"I don't have anything to hide because I think I've done something wrong: I have something to hide because I question your judgement and motives."
They're fine giving you their info because they trust you. The problem is when the person seeking that information is untrustworthy -- and some shithead(s) making their way into a company or government isn't just possible, it's likely.
Tell them to give all their sensitive personal information to someone that hates them. Credit card numbers, political beliefs, nudes, sexual preferences/fetishes, etc.
"Quantum immortality" is magical thinking for people that aren't comfortable with their own mortality. It's functionally no different than belief in an afterlife.
Bigots aside, I'm convinced most people are 100% fine with queer and gender non-conforming characters so long as they're well written.
People like characters that act like actual people -- not pandering, one dimensional, rainbow capitalistic tokens.
Both are about hateful idiots causing harm to someone else and choosing to ignore it.
It's a simile, you dork.
