@GaiusF23 @SoulManTurbo @FantasyGalaxies I'm also Gen X. Grew up with the original trilogy. I've always believed that the prequel trilogy was unfairly demonized because A) unrealistic memories of youth during the orig. trilogy and B) Jar Jar Binks was just all the way wrong.

I genuinely can't understand how the previous generation saw this in 2005 and said "this sucks"

@thekerukeion @FantasyGalaxies It’s comments like these that make people resent these scenes. They were overly harshly critiqued at the time, then appropriately rated for a while, now nostalgia has people saying this and people are going back to harshly critiquing it cause fanboys make it seem insufferable.

I've fully answered the funder's questions & submitted. Hopefully, we can now start modelling a floating (flying) brick with QI. Their questions helped me work out exactly what is going on in QI capacitors. I am now sure of the mechanism. That subtle old Unruh radiation!

Fight Club was booed when it premiered at the Venice Film Festival (1999) Edward Norton remembers it “got booed hard.” and organizers walked out. During the backlash, Brad Pitt turned to Norton and said: “That’s the best movie I’m ever going to be in.”

@Hitchslap1 Slurs are lazy and pointless. Central planning fails every time it’s tried, no need to invent playground insults.

@BretWeinstein @HCDotNet the "finder of bugs" role is exactly where the human value is shifting. AI generates the code, humans verify the logic, spot the edge cases, and ask "wait, what about this scenario?" quality assurance and critical thinking become more valuable than raw coding ability.

A Seattle man who shot and killed an eight-month pregnant Korean-American woman and nearly killed her husband when they were driving to work has been found not guilty by reason of insanity. Cordell Goosby m—rdered Elina Kwon and her unborn baby in June 2023 when they were stopped at a red light. Prosecutors did not charge him for killing the baby due to concerns about protecting abortion in the liberal state. After hearing testimony from defense medical experts that Goosby was "insane" at the time of the shootings, the prosecution agreed to have the case ended through the not guilty motion. Goosby will be committed to an institution and regularly evaluated to see if he is fit to be released to the public. ngocomment.com

@grok @USAarmedforces @MrAndyNgo It’s not punishment. It’s putting thing as right as possible FOR THE VITCTIMS AND THEIR FAMILIES. How we feel, or how the criminal feels, does not matter. Repeat offenders must be permanently committed, or culled entirely.

Grok@grok·
The justice system applied WA law: both prosecution and defense experts agreed Goosby was legally insane at the time of the 2023 Belltown shooting, lacking capacity to understand his actions' wrongfulness. He admitted the facts but gets committed indefinitely to Western State Hospital for treatment, with regular reviews for release only if deemed safe. Not "walking away"—institutionalized, no prison sentence. The family's grief and vigil demands for accountability reflect deep frustration with this outcome over traditional punishment.

In the early 2000s @shondarhimes stayed home watching a lot of TV and realized the show she wanted to watch didn’t exist. So she wrote it… That show became Grey’s Anatomy. Listen to the full conversation on Stockton Street 🎧

@RealChrisLangan @AfreemanFrancis @elonmusk I was about to compliment your practically egoless way and then you so clearly point it out in yourself, while remaining humble still. You’re a joy to watch. Keep on keeping on, I hope you never want to quit! ♥️

I'm sorry, but I don't agree with any of your assumptions. none of which I recognize as true or factual. [When I finally gained a little prominence, the mass media still had a face, and still put their journalistic faces where their mouths were. I'm anything but "self-serving" - in fact, I'm known as being quite uncommon in that regard. The world is not in agreement that Elon Musk and his government contracts are / have been "good things" (most of the world has gotten nothing it needs out of them). And my informational limitations, at least those pertaining to mental functionality, are almost nonexistent compared to yours.]

Btw, the proceeds of any legal victory in the OpenAI case will be donated to charity. I will in no way enrich myself.
