Didn't some police chief say that 10x 1000-person marches would be unmanageable (from a suppression/monitoring perspective)?
I hope that protest leaders took that as advice, rather than the whingeing it was.

For short-term wins I'd go with Neal Asher's "Polity" civilization as at some point in the 20th Century, the AI just decides to take over and become benevolent rulers.
No societal collapse required.
But also a higher risk of enslavement by giant sentient crabs. Your call.
Agreed, but honestly either is ok. I'd prefer the Minds ruling me to humans too.
The main thing that would scare me is the Megadeath scenarios from the Idiran war.
But that seems like a pretty rare thing. Also, they seem to be a lot better at the sex and drugs thing than ST, as well as how they handle crime.
Coming after these guys is Neal Asher's Polity. It's like Culture "lite", And the robots are a bit less "extra".
And also that honking/screaming at the car is (even more of) a dick move now.
Yeah we always had a moment about that too.
"Uh.. mask on? Or mask off?"
The hurt locker.
But only the guy who gets blown up at the start is a human.
Imagine creating this and imagining you were making a point.
I'm hoping they make a desktop version but I've been testing Linux mint on all the games I can download and I'm pretty sure it's running better than my win10 boot.
So the fact that the other distros are an option that's relatively accessible makes me think there's less value to valve releasing the desktop version any time soon.
Came to Lemmy while my disk manager is processing my new partition.
If it goes well, I'm switching today.
So, probably some time early tomorrow morning. Because I'm not great with reading instructions.
Edit: it's still processing. It feels like it shouldn't take this long to partition...
They're not going away, they're just going to be more persistent with their cold calling, and more infuriating with their call answering.
Most privacy plugins (even the ones that work less because of chromium) have an option to "auto-decline all" standard cookie popups.
I use ghostery but I think uBlock origin has an opt-in one, and almost certainly there's plugins that only do the declining (if you don't want the adblockers for other reasons).

Probably he didn't care if it was true or not.
It was what he needed to say to get what he wanted.
Checking his memory was an exertion he didn't need to do.
