If you like his taste you should totally listen to his podcast, triple click.

It's basically the only way I find out about new games. And it's honestly super insightful.

You had multiple AI subscriptions...

Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact could be written more simply as Hunter^2 : Nen x Impact

Just a suggestion, both are technically correct.

... and it destroyed their company right? Their entire business model broke down and it impacted the security of their customers who complained constantly about the decision. Right?

Right?

We should boycott them

How? They aren't selling to us anymore, remember. They're ramping down their consumer products because the AI specific products are more lucrative. Hell, not buying their consumer products just proves that point. We're beyond fucked at this point.

Just grab some popcorn?

I would assume, not Russians.

One of the now public films is the war film "Hell's Angels" (about fighter pilots, not bikers). It's directed by Howard Hughes, I thought "that's odd" because he was an airplane designer, not a director; so I looked it up on Wikipedia. The more I read the more Hughes' project sounded like a parallel to dumb shit Elon is doing, buying a social media outlet... okay, making a major motion picture... sure, firing a third of the company and running it into the ground... predictable, getting several people killed during filming and never recouping the cost of production... wow.

Hughes has a reputation as an eccentric reclusive genius, he designed some great aircraft, he made a lot of money, but he was problematic whenever he stepped out of his lane. We're probably lucky he never got into politics.

But here's what really caught my eye, (I'll quote from the Wikipedia page).

When Paul Mantz, the principal stunt pilot, informed Hughes that a stunt in the final scene was too dangerous, Hughes piloted the aircraft himself, but crashed; he suffered a skull fracture and had to undergo facial surgery as well. Three stunt pilots and a mechanic died in accidents during filming.

I'm not sure if Hughes really "learned his lesson" from that, but I'm willing to bet that coming that close to death would affect anyone. How do we get Elon to do anything that would actually give him pause? How do we get him a life altering experience (not necessarily a near death experience, but I'm not oppressed to that either)?

I don't know, I think I'm still calling the outcome a win for Kirk. He really got what he wanted, guns are readily available to all the ~~white~~ right people.

Actually, I think everyone got what they wanted, conservatives got to pretend to stand on moral high ground for a month, and progressive got one less Charlie Kirk. Win, win, win.

It's held on there with zip ties. Why, you could probably find something to deal with that right at home Depot.

Which you can do starting at like 15! So it all works out.

Honestly NASA has had worse administrators over the years, at least isaacman seems to care about the success of the agency. If nothing else, we can say for certain that this is a guy who loves everything about space, so I expect he'll do his best.

 

Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?

Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
