TIL Alice Walton (Walmart heir) killed a pedestrian in a driving accident and was never charged. She has also been arrested for DUI twice but never charged. (en.wikipedia.org)

The sketchy part is not her not getting convicted. It’s that no charges were even filed. I also enjoyed this bit of info from one of the sources regarding the other DUI incident. Prosecutors in Texas have dropped a 2011 drunken driving citation against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. heiress Alice Walton.

WarmSoda,

People like this have money. That creates a barrier between them and "other"people. With enough money you never have to think about anyone below the line.

A clear victory for the free fediverse: Meta now says integrating with ActivityPub is "a long way out" (privacy.thenexus.today)

When Meta launched their new Twitter competitor Threads on July 5, they said that it would be compatible with the ActivityPub protocol, Mastodon, and all the other decentralized social networks in the fediverse "soon"....

WarmSoda,

Governments will always exist. Sorry to burst that bubble. They always have and they always will.

WarmSoda,

Hell yeah!

WarmSoda,

Human history. The oldest history of humanity we have is the Sumerians. From that time on every large group of people formed a government. Babylon. Arkadian. Egyptian. Greek.

Other forms of government are tribes. Hunters. Gatherers. Those are tribes.

Show us people that didn’t have a form of government and we’ll be impressed.

WarmSoda,

Yes. Those types of people have always been around. Have you never read history before? You can aCkuALY all you want to, I don’t care. I’d rather you left that shit attitude at reddit, though.

WarmSoda,

using keyword algorithms to mindlessly remove intelligent discussion only because it may be against some kind of predetermined policy. The US government does this. They have official agents placed within the staff of major social media outlets for this purpose.

Please please please provide evidence of this one.

WarmSoda,

I can’t continue with this conversation simply because of how ignorant you are. I’m not here to argue with you over the dumb things you feel are gotcha points. You are not as clever as you think you are.

WarmSoda,

Absolutely. Trying to catch all the different ways the movie tells you everything before anything is revealed is fun.

My favorite is the little kid that cries because he killed the birds brother.

WarmSoda,

I got a call from my area that woke me up in the morning. I’ve got doctors and shit so I answer it.
No sound. Me, hello? No sounds. Then like someone trying to move the phone.
Me, Who is this? Gruff annoyed voice: Who is this? Me, fuck you who are you? Annoyed voice: uh… This is the city police fund raiser …

Rude as hell.

WarmSoda,

It’s all “I hate this” comments, too. Why would you spend all of your time like that? It’s just stupid.

WarmSoda,

Too soon!? They should have been mocked right there by the press.

WarmSoda,

I’ve been on here a lot, and I use the different sorts. The think with smaller communities is how many times do you want to show the post that was made last week as new? Until someone comments in them or makes another post it’s not going to bring it up in new or hot.

Maybe a random sort option could help?

But it really comes down to engagement. Engage with the smaller communities and they’ll show up more.

WarmSoda,

I’m tired of people bitch and complain about not being able to play old Nintendo games, and at the same time make fun of Skyrim for being purchasable on any system you want.

WarmSoda,

Have you ever looked at AvaddonLFC… On weed?

WarmSoda,

You’re looking good baby. Finger guns

WarmSoda,

Eh I don’t need a device just to block ads. Thank you for the suggestion though!

WarmSoda,

I don’t know about any of those things. Thank you for listing then so I can look into them.

WarmSoda,

Horrible to eat.

WarmSoda,

Good for them. I think driving yourself head first into the pavement is something all companies should try to attract new buyers.

Actors say Hollywood studios want their AI replicas — for free, forever (www.theverge.com)

“This ‘groundbreaking’ AI proposal that they gave us yesterday, they proposed that our background performers should be able to be scanned, get one day’s pay, and their companies should own that scan, their image, their likeness and should be able to use it for the rest of eternity on any project they want, with no...

WarmSoda,

Isn’t this already covered with the Back to the Future 2 lawsuit? They can’t use an actors likeness without thier explicit permission. Just because it’s “ai” doesn’t make it any different, ai is just a SFX.

WarmSoda,

True, good call. I completely spaced on that. Pretty shitty thing to do. “You know that thing that’s illegal for us to do? Put it in the contract that we can do it!”

WarmSoda,

Nolans gonna be maaaad

WarmSoda,

They aren’t negotiating in good faith. They won’t talk again until October, and are waiting them out hoping they’ll lose thier homes.

WarmSoda,

Anonymous industry sources told Deadline this week that studio executives did not plan to resume negotiations with the striking writers until late October.

“The endgame is to allow things to drag on until union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses,” an industry source was quoted as saying, with another saying the goal was to “break the WGA”.

Stay strong

WarmSoda,

Yeah I was thinking about all the people below the line that it affects, too. I bet anyone opening a restaurant right now has their pick of people to hire!

WarmSoda,

I like this “sue everything” stage of failing.

WarmSoda,

I never knew about this. Was it any good?

WarmSoda,

Isn’t that called a shortcut?

WarmSoda,

Agreed. I’ve been using the website on my phone. I figure I’ll check out the apps again after they settle into themselves more.

WarmSoda,

Interesting, thanks

WarmSoda,

That’s pretty cool. Thanks

WarmSoda,

I just tried it. It just adds a browser shortcut to my phone. Oh well

WarmSoda,

Which app did that? I only got notifications when someone replied to a comment/post I made.

WarmSoda,

Nah it definitely was not just a reddit itself thing.

WarmSoda,

I like what this McKinsey guy is sayin.

WarmSoda,

We have all the old factories converted into apartments around here. It’s pretty cool. Even old churches have been turned into apartment buildings.

WarmSoda,

It’s just like converting anything else into a multifamily building.

WarmSoda,

The fuck? My work yelled at me when I went to the bathroom during WFH. You’re over here getting stipends and shit.

Good for you man, that’s awesome

WarmSoda,

I think I’m on the wrong line :/

WarmSoda,

Yeah I hated WFH. I’m still trying to figure out what to do with the thin client I have. It’s gotta be useful for something right?

WarmSoda,

Thanks!

WarmSoda,

I could care less about console war stuff, but Microsoft has had a specialized controller since at least 2018

WarmSoda,

Oh wow you really brought the big guns out didn’t you?

WarmSoda,

It’s obviously geared towards a younger audience.

WarmSoda,

Man, I remember when the imagur guy made a post saying hi everyone I made a site we can use for pictures on Reddit. How’ long ago was that?

WarmSoda,

Leave the /s at Reddit
