Almost certainly bull. You can contact your police department to see if they have a warrant out on you possibly. If they don't you could file a police report and give them the record of the text/phone number and they may decide to go after whoever it was for impersonating a police officer though.

I expect the same reasons they're mostly all using Microsoft Office, Windows, and Active Directory. Because it's cheaper than doing it yourself.

Cormac McCarthy, wrote some books you might have seen as movies such as The Road and No Country for Old Men.

Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West is a crazy good book.

AirVPN is pretty nice, they offer DNS and port forwarding services as well which is quite convenient if you need a human readable hostname for a device over the internet.

Got a few years for a really good price a while ago too, they occasionally have good sales.

Cancelled prime ages ago for a different reason. Don't miss it. I don't know about other places, but where I'm at the "prime 2 day shipping" pretty much never arrives in 2 days anyway.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is the living embodiment of "Ackchually". Every time I hear anything about him, it's because he's never heard of suspension of disbelief and makes stupid comments "correcting" anything that was obviously made for artistic or philosophical purposes.

As an example, I dont think anyone prompted him for a science answer on this.

I just think the guy can be pretty tone deaf, trying to make science the point of something when it very much has nothing to do with the subject at hand.

edit: please correct me if you believe I am wrong, I am open to discussion.

Not inherently to my knowledge.

It is a modification of 'fellows', fellows etymology coming from 'late Old English fēolaga ‘a partner or colleague’ (literally ‘one who lays down money in a joint enterprise’), from Old Norse félagi, from fé ‘cattle, property, money’ + the Germanic base of lay1.'

Colloquially, the term might often reference men, but I cant find any evidence it is exclusive to them.

No worries, have a good day :)

I see, I think this is true colloquially, just not in definition.

Can anyone explain how all of these people aren't being sent to prison for straight up treason? Isn't blatantly and loudly stating that you're intending to overthrow the united states government an enormous crime?

In effect, Air Canada suggests the chatbot is a separate legal entity that is responsible for its own actions.

The airline also argued that the chatbot's response to Moffatt's inquiry included a link to a section of its website that outlined the company's policy and said that requests for a discounted fare are not allowed after someone has travelled.

So what Air Canada is saying is "If the bot says you're supposed to get this deal, we aren't liable, but if the same bot also says you aren't supposed to get this deal contradicting itself in the same breath, then that should be upheld in court to benefit us".

Sorry lol, you don't get to have it both ways.

They are notoriously the fucking worst. I don't know any canadians who fly with them unless they literally have no other choice and its an emergency. I've had friends push back vacations purely so that they dont have to fly air canada.

Selling user data, selling top posts and comments to corporate marketing accounts, selling control of dialogue about any subject to sway public opinion, reddit gold, making the platform more ass.

Attention seeking behavior in a healthcare environment including faking a medical condition, or intentionally worsening a real condition are pretty glaring symptoms of Munchausens.

So they are acting this way because they are sick, just not in the way you're accustomed to.

The ethical thing to do here is to put them into contact with mental professionals.

I didn't make the statement that it's their property, I made the statement that it's being displayed through their application.

golden_zealot OP , 5 months ago

I suppose that is correct per the definition, thanks for the correction.

golden_zealot OP , 5 months ago

Awesome, thank you.

The content is not Carlin himself, its mimicry.

This means it's not preservation, it is invention and by extension of that, it's nothing close to immortality, it's bastardization.
