I heard about someone doing that from Leonard French. Some old boomer thought the AI could actually search for court cases, ended up getting tricked into citing a bunch of non-existent caselaw and got into a lot of trouble.

This story seems to be a bit exaggerated - a Vietnamese game developer I spoke to reported that people still have access to Steam and that the source for this story isn’t super well substantiated.

The class war is a war like any other, and most wars I know of were won by having a clear plan of battle and strong leadership.

Probably never. It makes a lot more sense to keep the site running as is and skim a trickle of information off the top. People blow off steam here sometimes, say things they probably shouldn’t say on the Internet, and that gets added to the case file as just another exhibit.

Imagine if someone throws up on the vines. How would you ever clean that?

I get the sentiment, but I feel like Caesar’s Legion wasn’t really meant to be like, satirical? The authors of New Vegas clearly intended for him to be the wrong choice, don’t get me wrong, but it does still feel like a serious depiction of fascism rather than purely taking the piss out of it. It’s silly only insofar as fascism itself tends to lead to silliness.

As we all know, US generals are functionally indistinguishable from Rust players.

Imagine Kamala Harris dashing out of the Senate with a USB key containing all 1,776 of the US Congressional $VOTE tokens.

If you want me to vote Democrats maybe pick one who isn’t pro-genocide? Geez

They could literally set up gun turrets on the Rio Grande and Abbott would still talk about how Biden is “weak on the border” and bang the secessionist drum because he refuses to approve a first strike against Mexico City. It doesn’t matter what compromise will always just ask for more. It costs them nothing and their voters don’t fucking care. Anyone who says otherwise is a dumb fuck who doesn’t understand the first thing about politics.
