I do largely blame printers for my mental health struggles in that time btw. I only say "worked on printers" because that made up like 60-80% of the things that caused problems. Deeply evil technology.

I was looking this up because I found out Lord of the Rings was translated as "Yubiwa(ring) Monogatari", the word used for Japan's famous epics like Tale of Genji (Genji Monogatari), and I thought that was an extremely cool and evocative idea

When A Wizard of Earthsea was first translated into Japanese, it was renamed "Record of Ged War", which is weird not only because Ged does not fight a war and the series is ideologically anti-war, but because "Earthsea" seems like it'd just sound awesome to a Japanese reader

Started reading the Bible in Japanese for some medieval language inspiration, but felt it was weirdly easy to read. Realized it was a new translation so went and found a Meiji era translation, started reading and it was nigh incomprehensible, exactly what I was looking for

This sudden push for "safety" regulations is a big scam to misdirect from the actual problems with AI companies and shut out smaller competitors, which means you'd THINK their biggest ally, the White House, would be behind them, but that's not the case for some reason.

He is actually correct here, suspiciously so. My guesses: 1) he is just defending Trump 2) like with Israel he sees the writing on the wall for this issue's popularity and is staking out a position before 2028

It’s worse than this. Having been in the room with many of them (long ago, before I knew they were psychopaths), the tycoons who are left running the industry have an active contempt for ordinary people, including their own workers. They actively want to oppress, control and punish them.

All the really interesting themes of faith are just gone. Everyone has gone backwards from their character development from S1, or are just acting OOC in general. It's so disappointing!

Lovely Dylan cover from 1966, which gives a little insight into the kind of career Elvis might have had if he'd been allowed to keep pace with the rest of the music world, rather than recording terrible shit that he hated for soundtracks to bad movies.

The crux of the issue has always been "a corporation, somewhere, did something stupid and inefficient", among the thousands of stupid and inefficient things they do that no one cares about, but then Chris Rufo takes them and goes "imagine this, but everywhere, not such a small deal now, huh?"
