    Watch This Fake AI Video Scam - Then Show Your Parents

    Easy fix. You need a safe word, based on some obscure family in-joke. Without that word, don't trust any plea for help. Works both ways, so you won't be fooled either.

    Has The Israeli Goverment BecomeThe Monster?

    Where human beings are concerned, the "good guys" is largely a subjective conceptual judgment.

    Yeah, that's not a thing you can do in The Sims 4.

    MN Democrat State Rep and Spouse Assassinated By Man Posing As Police

    I just read a report (haven't verified it yet), that his wife was stopped by police and they found ammo, money and passports in the trunk of her car. Makes me think she was on her way to help him make that escape.

    Shitler’s Tiny Peen Birthday Parade Was A Joke

    Or they are expressing their extreme disapproval of the entire event in the only way they can? ETA: $45 million is a high price-tag for humiliating Trump, but at this stage of the fascist coup, I'll take it. I'm really amazed at the number of people who look at that "parade" of ambling...

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    Mrs. Beebo is working on our No Kings signs. Not sure how long we can stand (her knees, my ankles) but we have rain slickers in case of bad weather.

    Has The Israeli Goverment BecomeThe Monster?

    I'm hoping the thunderstorms bypass our town in the mountains. I have a protest to attend.

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    I suspect that at a few crucial times in history, that particular type of personality fits like a key in a lock. Trump has been around for a very long time, and it wasn't until 2016 that he gained "sudden" traction. Trump didn't change; it was the country that changed. At just the right time...

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    These commonalities of political strategy all seem to stem from narcissism run amok. To my mind, it's an organic growth rather than a premeditated path, but either way, it's very difficult to fight.

    Last night's episode (Ep. 6 - Command Feed) departed enough from the books that I had no idea what was going to happen next, even though they're still headed in the generally same direction as the books. So far, I'm fine with the embellishments. LeeBeeBee's character serves a useful purpose in...

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    I'm not as optimistic about the average American's ability to discern deceit as the author of this article. Trump’s Fury at Gavin Newsom Backfires—and Reveals His Own Weakness | The New Republic I've thought many of Trump's flaws were "self-evident" but large portions of the American public...

    AI is undermining entry-level jobs

    There are dozens of articles about this topic, so for the purposes of discussion I pulled out this one: AI is erasing the entry-level jobs new grads once relied on The immediate impact gets the most attention -- fewer jobs for new grads -- but I've not seen as much attention to the long-term...

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    Trump has spent the last five months rampaging with only the flimsiest of legal cover. Time and again, the courts have ruled against him. And yet he continues with new outrages every day, again under the flimsiest of legal cover. Very little of what the Trump Administration is doing is legal...

    The Trump Presidency, Season 2

    That's not the way any such scenario would be described by Trump and his minions. There is no counter-narrative that gains any traction, even when it's fact-based. It's like saying what is the point of Putin throwing people out of windows; how does that create a situation that gives him legal...

    Yay! The Two Worst People In The World Are Going At It

    From my end of it, I also recoil from atheists who try to rock someone's faith with arguments. I get testy if someone's beliefs get out of their lane and tries to regulate my life according to their dogma, but otherwise it's simply none of my business. If they are wrestling with faith and need a...

    Would you let an AI “you” stay active in-world while you're AFK?

    The only reason I log into SL is to interact with real people. It's also the main reasons I so rarely log in to SL. If you want to interact with AI avatars, may I recommend The Sims 4? It's a helluva lot easier to navigate.
