Personal life - I've used it for idea generation like, "what can I make from x, y, z ingredients" or "what are some activities I can use to teach 4th graders about aerodynamics".

I despise it at work. I am on the verge of having to fire someone on my team for its misuse.

Alt-right comedian who confuses his free speech to say bigoted things with a belief that people must find him funny.

He also got into boxing in the way "alpha male" content creators do, left smack talking in the dust and made actual threats against his opponents and their families.

But he's a comedian so it's all funny! /s

Bad businessman, bad. Everyone knows you don't bring problems without solutions.

Now what's the solution? (One that doesn't involve enslaving women further). Bet he won't broach the idea of regulating AI companions, that would be bad for profit.

The BitWarden Emergency Access feature is premium-only to setup. And it doesn't have the death certificate/identity verification piece to it, which I prefer not having anyway.

So it's not actually one I would recommend. It's provided as an employee benefit through my company, and I don't particularly like my company having any relation to it at all.l and I don't like the death certificate portion.

I'm moving back to BitWarden, which has a similar feature. It's Emergency Access, in which your delegated person requests emergency access, there is a wait period where you would be getting emails or whatever notifying you of the access request, and if you don't respond within the defined time period, access is granted.

So it removes the identification / death certificate portion, which I greatly prefer. My BW vault ties to an email address that I use only for the password manager, not my legal name or Social Security number, so I'm compartmentalizing pieces of identifying information.

Password manager with a delegated access structure is the way to go. If my sister (who I have delegated to) requests access, provides a death certificate,and waits some cool-off period, she gets access to the portions of my password vault I designate. I will grant her access to my financials upon death, but not social media and private stuff.

Versus writing it down and giving it to a lawyer who probably has the same opsec as their 1920s counterpart.

Whoo, which would be more embarrassing? Being exposed by this leak or the Ashley Madison one. I would love to see a list of email addresses that show up in both datasets.

Am I reading the techno-babble accurately?

You would muzzle sweep your target with the trigger pressed, and it would fire as your gun is actually aimed for the most-probable strike. If off target = it doesn't fire = bullets saved and probably better targeting because the shooter isn't dealing with as much recoil.

So even less training needed and even further removed from human decision making. Soldiers didn't murder that unarmed civilian, AI did.

Missing some punctuation.

Don't. Be evil.

You could have just agreed that it's crazy how far religious zealotry [has gone].

And you could have followed this exact same advice.

I'd love to see a real effort to stop genital mutilation of all babies. When the most visible time men speak up about it though is when they insert themselves into a conversation about women, it does not build sympathy for the issue.

I mean this sincerely. If you are at all serious about stopping the genital mutilation of babies, I suggest you rethink your strategy.

But did they pinky promise?

 

Inspired by a post since deleted, I feel bad for probably coming off judgemental about the poster's taste in the movie that drove him to consider sailing.

The earliest desired media I can remember that drove me to figure out sailing was DC Talk, a Christian rock band. Pop music was not allowed in my house, so a Christian group was tantalizing and scandalous to a rebellious, young Vanth. Things escalated from there.
