Somehow we’ve invented brain uploading but we forgotten to invent the mech

Given that no prime minister has ever cared about the north of England I think you’ll find that it’s as impoverished as Wales

So if I ever meet people like them I just hit them with the Shakespeare didn’t write his own plays conspiracy. There is absolutely no evidence to any of it but if you double down on it these idiots go absolutely bonkers.

I assuming his number one policy will be tax breaks for the ultra wealthy. He’s never really been subtle about what he wants.

Yeah but given the Portal came out 20 years ago I think their decision not to use an AI generated voice was probably more to do with the lack of AI generated Voice technology than any kind of moral decision

“In other words, we think AI should be voiced by AI - not to offend AI. This feels especially important nowadays, with AGI almost here. That’s all we can say, unpacking the whole AI cultural narrative isn’t really our place.”

Oh come on. That’s funny. Why does this author have a stick up their butt about this absolutely nothing burger? I’m actually somewhat irritated that you wasted my time with this complete non-story. At least I know about a new game, but seriously we don’t need to have a post about every single thing that’s posted on a gaming website, because a lot of it is just filler, like this.

Given Sony’s recent announcements I’m inclined to think that they might actually just be idiots.

I think what’s happening is they’re really panicking because they’re starting to realize that the ps6 is going to be extremely expensive to build, and won’t be an attractive option. So they are cutting costs everywhere they can, but that’s just pissing off the current player base.

As soon as they announced all of this I was pretty confident that we’re going to end up getting raked over the coals come the finish. Do they even have lawyers, did they even run this plan past them get their feedback or did they just announce it?

If you say “buy” but it turns out that what you actually meant was “limited license” then at a minimum that is false advertising, and given the fact that they chose to make this change, and it wasn’t something forced on them by third party action, you could even go as far as to charge them with conspiracy to commit fraud.

Also the fact that Blu-ray could play regular DVDs but HD DVD was a different size standard and couldn’t play DVDs. Not help by the fact that most people didn’t have a 4K TV anyway so it didn’t really matter for most of them, so they got a Blu-ray player so that it would be able to play both formats and then upgraded the TV at a later date.

It was also competing against The Finals a game that was considerably better and more innovative, and also free.

He’s turning out to be exactly as useless as anticipated.

What is the point in promising to cap donations if you then don’t do it.

If you don’t know the answer it’s perfectly acceptable to just not respond.

Obviously the taxpayer isn’t going to pay money to a political party that isn’t the government. That doesn’t happen anywhere from not sure what’s with that suggestion.

They get funding from donors, who live in the UK, and the donations have to be registered with the governing board. The problem is these crypto billionaires don’t live in the UK and the funds weren’t reported.

Do people voting Reform ever wonder

Nope, not about anything. I’ve talked to them, they haven’t got a clue how anything in government works, but they believe Farage when he tells them that they should be angry about it.

It isn’t. It’s extremely illegal, it was already pretty bad and this is made it way way worse. It’s just no one’s going to do anything about it because they’re scared of reform.

Apparently there is a police investigation into reform, I doubt it will result in any arrests, but you never know.

AKA prime minister material

Still cheaper than attending the reform party conference.

I gotta love how the US is really advanced for the most part but then occasionally you come across one area in which it operates like 1980s Estonia.

It’s because the US electrical system sucks and they refused to upgrade it, although reasonably speaking it would be kind of impossible at this point. In order to be able to actually run a heating element you would have to have a special circuit fitted with a decent voltage.

Wot?

I always assumed that they were just lying about their “privacy commitment”. No corpo type is going to be able to resist leaving that much data on the table. Nonetheless people quite prepared to eat up for the claim and criticise Google, who at least honest about it, it was a completely unfounded claim made by the company itself the very people most incentivize to lie.
