Honestly I think the reliability problem cannot be fully solved and as people realize how severe it is they'll get rid of AI in many roles.

I also think that inherently most humans go totally insane if they don't have a "job" of some form whether or not they need money over time. Post scarcity you need *something* to do even if it's just you want to find an optimal path through a lengthy and complex holonovel.

This... is both the kind of asshole penny-pinching I expect from execs and also obviously a thing that probably nets out negative because a lot of viewers end up moving on before the next season.

I don't have much to say about 9/11 itself; I have a poor memory in general and was barely in elementary school at the time. It was a normal school day until we were sent home early and no one told me why. I walked in my house to find the TV on for one of a few times a year with the Towers burning.

This is broadly a problem a lot of left parties are having, most notably in Britain. When they offer Diet Fascism it quickly turns out anyone who likes fascism wants the real thing but most of their supporters were voting for them because they weren't fascist and find a different left party.

...Towa's crew still have their powers. There was a big emotional scene where Towa forcibly took their powers and it really gave the impression they lost them, not that Towa made a copy. If that's how it works I have zero idea why she didn't do it earlier.

The show has generally had severe pacing problems, but now that we're in the phase where things are happening the problem that's moved into the forefront is that the show just doesn't have enough budget.

CALLED IT! Also Mana has been worrying about leaving messing with the potted plant she likes and I just figured out she means Progenitor Zero. I love her to bits and wish she was in a better show.

GBV has a number of problems but the new main characters are great. Mana is basically a stereotypical manic pixie dream girl totally in love with a random unimpressive guy she's taken on a grand adventure purely because she loves him so much, except she literally eats people.
An extremely happy Mana as Eiji tells her "you can leave the aftermath to me".

Watching Gun Blaze Vengence, Mana is presented with the options of fleeing or killing everyone attacking the lab and is taking a surprisingly long time thinking it over.

My understanding is that it was indeed pursued as the fourth and fifth seasons and indeed used a number of scripts that had originated as live-action pitches that didn't get used for one reason or another, but Gene ended up not liking it and mostly declared it noncanon.

Name your fav game made before 2000. This is a bit of a tough one because my tastes have changed and also I can't go back to '90s interface design for most things, but Starcraft is the game that made me a Gamer. These days there aren't many RTSes with basebuilding so I pretty much don't play them.

ok I had to force down a tear with this one reskeeting with alt text
Image of a page in a book with text reading as follows


THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO:

Dr. John Sharpe of London, who in 1957. a decade before physicians in England could legally perform an abortion for any reason other than the health of the woman, took the considerable risk of referring for an abortion a twenty-two-year-old American on her way to India.

Knowing only that she had broken an engagement at home to seek an unknown fate, he said, "You must promise me two things. First, you will not tell anyone my name. Second, you will do what you want to do with your life."

Dear Dr. Sharpe, I believe you, who knew the law was unjust, would not mind if I say this so long after your death:

I've done the best I could with my life.

This book is for you.

The author does not neccessarily approve of everything the villain who suffers a horrible fate in judgement for their sins does. Also when the opener of the books all say "the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable" it is probably not a complement.

This book is fantastic. Sidenote: The main duo are disabled! Albeit with fictional circumstances. Din had an unusual reaction to a memory-enhancing implant such that he can remember absolutely everything except text. He has immense trouble reading it at all and instantly forgets it.

Still watching Nanoha; used to discuss it on a Nanoha discord but arguments about the new season got so heated I've muted the channel. It does have some serious pacing problems and is currently having the main characters get caught up on stuff we've already seen.

"Is this game good?" is the wrong question. Sometimes they let you pet cats! Sometimes your archers can fire 7 squares away! Sometimes your children get banished to the baby realm as soon as they're born. You just have to roll with it and you'll have a great time.

slow day in the office so we're starting beef with archaeologists
One of those 'STOP DOING X' memes, ripping into archaeology. It has images of soil stratum, a trowel, and a flint shard. The text mocks archaeologists for digging for pottery sherds and saying everything has a 'ritual purpose'.

we walked into my cousin’s wedding this evening and immediately saw three men in matching straw cowboy hats. this meant that later in the evening, when they did a choreographed line dance for us, I got to teach everyone I’m related to what “Chekhov’s gun” means it did, in fact, pay off in Act III!

New Nanoha Exceeds GBV. The flashback to how the villains met is great. Mana rips off his arm and eats it and then is like "hey you're cute". Later Eiji says they don't have money and when checking his slack mutters that he wishes everyone at his company would die.

The Gaza scam bots seem to be picking up again. If you're seeing one of the posts claiming to be from a Palestinian family that pleads for money and usually includes a picture of suffering children, it's almost certainly a scammer nowhere near Gaza playing on your sympathy.
