*twitches in remembering "death panels"*
it's important for outlets to explain that when we talk about AI "posing a threat to humanity," we're talking about the rushed implementation of half-cooked automation killing your grandma with an auto-rejection of her medicare claims, not sentient industrialized planet-scouring murderbots (for now)
UnitedHealth uses AI model with 90% error rate to deny care, lawsuit allegesarstechnica.com For the largest health insurer in the US, AI's error rate is like a feature, not a bug.

I'm not a Christian in any language but boy do I hate when people pretend Latin did anything but reduce the clarity and subtlety of Christian theology. The original echo chamber was "church fathers illiterate in Greek". This is downstream Aquinas "great chain of being" BS.

Some weird evangelical bullshit translation of a scholastic Latin term, or imitation thereof, if I had to guess. Like quidity for Thomists or smthg maybe? Probably an implication of "Createdness"

Yeah, I suspect this phrasing is bc they're LARPing as classically educated

Well. The design for this year's Rose City Comic Con Pin is off to our Pin manufacturer. (Yes, if we have any left, they'll go on the store. If you're in PDX in September, though, definitely come get one. Oh and the flowers are gonna be glittery.)

It came on the classical station at like 2am when I was working at a hotel in Arkansas and it was so surreal and different from anything else I'd ever heard, especially at work!

Sure thing=) this was my introduction to the play, years and years ago I got someone on livejournal to look up the specific characters for "Suddenly before my eyes || a beauty to throw heaven and earth into turmoil" and considered getting them as a tattoo but I don't actually read Mandarin so eh

The 16th c. Chinese play, The Peony Pavilion, is just screaming to be made into a soapy drama series: ✅ Smart & Horny Heroine ✅ Death by Lovesickness (but making some art first!) ✅ The (Dead) People's Court ✅ Ghost Sex ✅ Grave-Robbing a Bride ✅ Getaway Driver Nun ✅ A Side Siege 10 scenes left...

Hot tub + pizza + backrubs = undying love Honestly it probably works on real people

Don't drown real people for their inheritance tho, that's bad

I expand my sim family the natural way, by inviting strangers into a hot tub, feeding them delivery pizza, and marrying them all in one afternoon, then drowning them for their life savings and starting over. Greg the Romancer could make more doing this than even endless gnome-making!

At home gnome-making was more lucrative in the Sims than being a CEO or president and I think the real economy should also work like this We had a parquet floored ballroom in the mansion with 4 carpentry benches and we just filled the whole thing with gnomes every day and lived like kings
