But then how will we maintain the ocean breeze scent?

I’ve never understood this argument in a vacuum. Fair use includes education. And people have been getting inspired by art they don’t own a copyright to for ever.

There are lots of other critiques of ai that I do agree with.

I feel like the other option is a Jacob’s Ladder experience

Literally. Politics is all about the power dynamics between people. If there are two or more people there will always be a power dynamic even if the two are on good terms and do not exert power over each other.

It’s like how you can always describe the color in any given painting, even when the painting is monochromatic.

They are puzzle games with a visual novel for the framing device

If you are as smart and educated as Carl Sagan, I’m sure weed isn’t doing the heavy lifting.

Yes, working instead of going to college.

I would take anything Hunter S. Thompson wrote with a massive grain of salt. He’s fun to read but gonzo journalism isn’t a great source for facts.

Except the child slave labor part would go away.

That’s the neat part, the republicans are trying to repeal child labor laws.

I’m being cheeky. I really just mean it’s an old technology that anyone could use and doesn’t.

If you want a real answer. Sega died because of the conflict between its American branch that was pushing the 32x (putting the genesis on life support when 5th Gen consoles like the 3DO were already releasing) and the Japanese parent that botched the Saturns release. ($100 more than the ps1, and retailers weren’t told about the initial exclusivity with KB toys so other retailers didn’t order any.) The Saturn was also hard to develop for and the Dreamcast had no piracy protections when it finally did release.

Basically a series of bad internal communication and multiple failures to keep up with consumer and retailer expectations and demands. They still made some of the best hardware of all time. The Dreamcast is a near perfect console the only gripe anyone has now is that the controller isn’t particularly comfortable.

A side note. The Xbox brand is the spiritual successor to Sega. The developers of the OG Xbox took a lot of design inspiration from the Dreamcast and helped to implement a windows compatibility layer for the Dreamcast before the Xbox was in development. Xbox also targets the same demographic of sports gamers and middle/high school boys.

This is why Sega needs to come back. They had Hall effect sticks on the Saturn and Dreamcast.

This whole thread is about day dreaming about business law reform.

The whole world doesn’t stop to deal with each problem individually.

Corporations should be owned jointly in equal parts by the people who work there. Most live local and won’t want to do that.

It’s easier on your neck to look side to side than it is up and down. So to get more screen real estate it makes more sense to go horizontal. Anecdotally, I constantly have two documents or a document and a web page open next to each other on one monitor. The landscape framing works really well for that.

Not all adults need a traditional doctor, but checkups mean catching things before they become a problem in either case.

What does “better” mean in that context?

Or songs off the Taylor Swift album

It reminds me of the steam machines from over a decade ago

Hopefully they ban enough popular people for their switch to a federated video sharing platform to have an impact on viewership.

Tesla is a great example of how genius is not a generalizable thing. He is the reason most of us have electricity, but he was a mess when it come to understanding people.
