What, the president of the United States lying about something that would be possible to prove wrong? I don’t know if he would risk his reputation like that, wouldn’t want people to think poorly of him…

Yeah, you’d think he’d like the guy that ‘exonerated’ him. Weird that he feels this way about him.
Ah, just figured out of all my friends it’s all the adhd’ers that have the whole mental block about seeing something and assuming it’ll be impossible to learn so never trying or looking it up. When it takes less than 5 minutes to permanently learn how to forever be able to simply solve these puzzles.
I just show them how to do it and they are surprised it’s actually as easy as I made it look.
Specifically the detective from Detroit: Become Human.


Hehe yeah, I was always put off on souls games because people described them as being hard, then when there wasn’t alot of choice early on in VR games, I picked up a souls-like since it was the closest I could get to a long-form rpg at the time. And it wasn’t that hard at all, but people were still complaining about how hard it was all the time… so I tried other souls games on desktop, and they were fine too. So I picked up the actual dark souls… this is what people were complaining about? It’s like, not even megaman difficulty?
That was when I learned that it’s a good thing there wasn’t much internet yet back when I was playing megaman games, or I might have never tried them either. And also it turns out I like “hard” games, to me that is like the whole point of games. If you finish something first try, then you didn’t get better at anything.


Hehe, I just played the cat on my sister’s playthrough. Did all the tedious/difficult stuff so she could focus on the story.


I learned so many things about myself with that game. Mistakes I would have made in real relationships had I not been taught by a game that it was actually “the bad ending”. I thought I was helping, but I was hurting.


Hehe yeah, such simple games, and yet me and my sister are there day 1 for every release.
But, sliding tile puzzles are simple, there is a reason they give them away as kids toys. If you haven’t figured out how to solve them, look it up, there is only one thing to know. But, basically it’s kind of like a figure 8 shape that you use to sort the tiles and fill them in from one corner and sweep to the opposite corner. Once you’ve done it once, every sliding tile puzzle is the exact same, and bigger ones are actually easier, just take more time.
Edit: I know it actually being simple is “the joke”, and that it’s maybe an adhd thing that gets in the way for people that see it and just assume it’ll be too hard, without checking.


You don’t understand, it takes like 15 seconds. That’s 15 less seconds I could have spent revving my truck in the parking lot to impress everyone. It’s so loud they all cover their ears and glare at me, they are so impressed.


He isn’t technically able to do most of the stuff he does do. He just does it, and then time passes and then it gets declared retroactively illegal… but it still happened. He’ll probably get punished at some point… right?
I will say, the colors chosen for the set do make it look a bit like a colorised photo now. Though it’s hard to say how much of that is the original color on set and how much was lost to the camera back then. It was tough to light/balance stuff well back then. Especially if they changed cameras, or if the set was made with a different camera in mind either way.
Behind the scenes footage always looks different back then from what aired. Not just from lack a of post-processing, like it would now, but also a lack of “pre-processing”, lol.
That’s interesting, just looked it up assuming I had likely heard the uncensored version at least once in my life, curious what could be removed from it. But yeah, turns out I have never once heard the full version. That is a very good example.
Well, specifically the plot is that she was gender surprising everyone on the force. The ending reveals that her gun had dug into everyones hip at one point it would seem.
Writing her as that kind of person is definitely demonizing trans, but their reactions were the normal overblown homophobia of the time. Not trans specific. It wasn’t just the idea of her being trans causing the reaction.
Also, the implication at the end is that she had been fooling around with many of them and they were all just realising her gun wasn’t digging into their hips either. It’s not just recoiling at the thought of a trans-gender person.
In real life, it’s normal to not ‘surprise’ someone with your gender. They should know full well and be accepting of what they are going to find long before it is revealed.
Of course writing her as having tried to trick most of the police force with her gender is for sure demonizing trans, and was also a ‘fear’ at the time. Like somehow trans people are doing it to ruin other peoples lives, instead of stop their own from being ruined.
Outside of that, it was the normal overblown reaction to homosexuality that was common at the time. Just in real-life cartoon style, which was Jim Carreys shtick. Plunger to the face is very much how a cartoon character would try to clean something off their face. Except it would probably pull their whole face off leaving it blank and they’d have a floating pencil draw a fresh one on.


But they stop saying “now” pretty quickly.


By the time they put something like this on the streets, they’ll have done some palatability passes on it. Heck, some percentage of the voters will praise it.
“It’s almost always correct in who it shoots!”
“Higher good-kill ratio than human police.”
Honestly, I hope when we get robot police, it’ll be for the reason that they are much better at de-escalating than any human could be trained to be. They don’t have to worry about the potential consequences if they extend kindness to the wrong person at the wrong time. Human fear is tough to suppress, no matter how much training you have, but it’s even harder to suppress when you have very little training and none of it focused on that.
And while robots can’t empathize/sympathize with emotion, they can now recognise and act the same way that someone that does sympathize with it would. But more importantly, they can talk to a psychopath or sociopath in ways that resonate with them, rather than trying and failing to appeal to their empathy/emotions. It’s tough for a neurotypical to even understand a lack of emotions or empathy.
The first models won’t be great, but we already have the tech to start making something helpful in that field, and it’ll only get better as we collect more data. But it’s tough to put robots in any situation where the fail state could be loss of life, even if we see on paper that they avoid that result more often than humans. It just doesn’t feel right anyway.


And the store clerk was kind enough to quickly screen shot it for him as soon as it came in? Like, oh I know this guy is gonna want to remember this moment, and share it on the internet, cuz it’s clearly a really funny joke that I’m just not in on yet.
Make sure you aren’t set to only see recent posts, there are no posts in the last 6 hours for example, but all the historic posts are still there if you change to a different feed type.
A wife massage with no funny business may often turn into a yes funny business massage, but only if the no funny business part goes well. And even then not always. But it’s always a good idea to take the no funny business part seriously. The worst possible outcome is that she just has a better day instead.
