I would say, have AI translate a game like Chrono Trigger to see the difference, but it’s already been baked into the training data. Maybe not the entire dialog but enough of it. How bad are these AI-based fan-translations anyway?

Justice Alito devotes an entire chapter of his new book to the emergency docket—and to responding to people like me (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”). As I explain over at “One First,” it … didn’t go well: www.stevevladeck.com/p/256-so-une...

In the pre-publication galleys to his new book, So Ordered: An Originalist’s View of the Constitution, the Court, and Our Country, Justice Alito spelled my last name inconsistently. This is, I suspect, the pettiest possible point on which to open in discussing a Supreme Court justice’s new memoir, and I would never have mentioned it except for the fact that inconsistency turns out to be the organizing feature of the chapter in which I (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”) repeatedly appear.

The central inconsistency of Chapter 8, which is devoted to the emergency docket, is structural: Rather than tackle the subject holistically (as one might expect in a book), Alito mashed together the speech he gave five years ago at Notre Dame Law School with a “postscript.” The former was deeply flawed even at the time (among lots of other things, Alito repeatedly insisted that there was “nothing new” about the Court’s behavior on emergency applications during the first Trump administration and COVID); and the latter tries to move the goalposts away from the specific phenomena to which critics like me have actually objected.

The result is to leave readers with a disjointed, inaccurate, and misleading sense of what the debate is even about—to say nothing of how the Court’s own behavior since September 2021 (including Alito’s) has only further undermined the already-flawed claims Alito made back then. Somewhere between the galleys of Alito’s book and the final product (which hits bookstores today), someone apparently figured out that my last name should be spelled the same way (and correctly!) throughout. The other, more significant inconsistencies were, apparently, harder to fix.

This is the truth of Doom on the Vectrex. The smooth version is great, but they just did not have that level of tech and processor speed back then. That said, I would love for more 3D games to be remade in the smooth vector fashion!

His mental state and ability to make comprehensible statements is severely impaired. I don’t think this is what he called for (this time). However, we SHOULD all be concerned about him inviting nuclear destruction to Earth, because his dark-triad personality craves power and chaos. #25A-NOW

Then he attempts to conclude the idea by restating that the high gas prices and the cost of the war is necessary. “This [(high gas prices)] is a very small price to pay [to protect America] and it [(the war)] is going to be over with very soon."

His word salad was an attempt to warn about his perceived threat of a nuclear Iran. “If they [(Iran)] could take out a city [with nukes], [if we] let [‘em] take out Los Angeles… [if we] let [‘em] take out San Diego[...] [Then you would see too late why we must stop them from having nukes.]”

Somewhere a junior staffer is tearing his hair out because Trump didn’t or couldn’t read the teleprompter, or he told the staff he would “just wing it”. Talking points were mulched in his brain and this is what came out. Brackets are implied/commentary. Parentheses are clarifiers against pronouns.

I’m the furthest thing from a Trump apologist. Keep that firmly In mind as I offer an alternative explanation for the quote that Los Angeles/San Diego attacked is a “small price to pay.” He’s attempting to argue that war and high prices are necessary to fight “evil”, but fails spectacularly.
