More than 70 recipients of The Game Awards' Future Class are calling for a statement to be read at next week's The Game Awards, on their behalf, in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
Did they? They voted on a resolution that affirms Israel’s right to exist. Can you show the part of the resolution that conflates anti-zionism with antisemitism?
I’m not arguing for the resolution or anything, I just don’t see what you see.

I was pretty shocked when I found out that NFT pictures aren’t even stored in the block chain. NFTs are just records on the block chain with links to images stored on ordinary servers.
If you put AI in a robot, one that has been trained to walk and plug itself in for electricity, how are you going to be sure it doesn’t kill people? I mean, this robot arm didn’t know it killed someone, it didn’t know not to kill someone… it’s going to be worse if robots are walking around with people. There was a little crab shaped robot with AI controlling it- they chopped off one of it’s legs to see how it would react, and later they noticed that it was identifying people’s faces and tracking them. They had never taught this thing what a person was or what they looked like, it had just figured it out itself and probably knew a person had cut off it’s leg too.
I spent a long time looking and haven’t found it yet. I did find this video which is similar and shows that the AI doesn’t know what it is or what’s around it. youtu.be/iNL5-0_T1D0?si=BaW8Tn5nacyoGSCB

I’m about half way through this video, I’d never seen it before. I think she offers some decent rebuttal and fact checking. I didn’t understand, and her listeners didn’t understand why she would say the Marxist Leninists are basically liberals who are apologetic to horrors committed by the left (but that’s not true, Marxist Leninists are not liberals), then she said she was being sarcastic- if you are fact checking then your statements should be taken at face value. I think her frustration comes from the lack of criticism of all of the failures of communist regimes. The Deprogram podcast with Hakim has an episode about the failures of communist parties, and though they mentioned the restriction of religious freedom, they completely skipped over major atrocities like China’s Land Reform Movement. I couldn’t imagine a party leader who was less qualified or more destructive to their own people than Mao was, it’s amazing that China is where it is today with a terrible history like that. But yeah, I’ve been waiting for Hakim to voice concerns about past atrocities and I haven’t heard anything.

So workers pay 7.3% and employers pay 7.3%? It covers all of your health care costs? U.S. insurance varies in cost but we have medical bills on top of insurance costs.
There’s different tiers, but in the case of a doctor visit and prescriptions for medication, you typically have a copay amount which insurance does not cover. If you have a serious illness and require treatment in the hospital you would be required to pay 30%-40% of the total bill. Also some insurance requires that you pay a certain amount per year before it will take effect, then the insurance pays the rest for the year. There’s tons of different plans and scenarios, insurance here is a rip off.

It’s not the anaesthetist that does pelvic exams, it’s medical students. Medical students need experience so they practice on anaesthetized patients. There was a story on the radio of a male medical student who was supposed to do an exam on a woman and he realized that she was unaware and hadn’t specifically consented and so he mentioned his concerns to his peers and it started a discussion worldwide about the practice. I don’t think the practice is limited to pelvic exams.
Hours after the Charlottesville car attack that killed Heather Heyer I went to /b/ to see if anyone wanted to virtually protest the alt-right white supremacist websites, and it was filled with post after post urging people to kill more protestors with their cars.
I was really looking forward to this and it exceeded my expectations. I think a lot of people don’t like how the U.S. is portrayed, as a fearful and violent global military power. I bet this caused a lot of the negative reviews although the reviewers don’t come out and say it. Thought it was a 9/10
