A rock that talks like a person is not something we really evolved to be able to handle. It makes sense why so many people struggle with it.

Practical Magic does sound weird when you describe it like that.

Yeah, most planets have the same rotation direction as orbital direction (counter-clockwise rotation, counter-clockwise orbit) but Venus rotates clockwise.

It’s a meme. That’s how I know the context.

Is it possible that your interpretation is valid? I mean, sure, but it’s not likely. People’s choice of phrases often shows their thought process. “If you can’t do the time…” is a phrase that’s often used to emphasize personal responsibility in a given situation. That, paired with the emphasis but reversal of the key phrase from the headline, strongly implies that this person thinks that it’s the failings of those convicted (ie, they did the crime) for their convictions, rather than the police.

The interpretation you bring to the comment is less likely for three reasons. One, a person agreeing with the headline but adding emphasis that the cops need to be held accountable would likely mention the cops somewhere in their comment (only people mentioned are “criminals” (“can’t do the time”)). Two, people most likely to be critical of cops are likely to want to talk about the systemic failures rather than individual failings (talking about conviction rates for DAs or case closure rates for cops or just plain racism being a large contributing factor). Three, and this is the big one, the most likely comments on Facebook are going to be from those who disagree with whatever is being shown since Facebook feeds you content based on what causes you to engage the most and anger is the most common reason for engagement.

Where is the week strait? Is it near Friday island?

There’s a tool called a computer. And on it it has programs that can edit pictures.

They’ve changed their name since. Now they’re the Chicago Cubs

Solid Rs is probably better than hard Rs. Was wondering why the hell you were throwing around a slur for a hot second. Either the R word or N word.

No matter how silly you think someone else’s religion is, you don’t get to dictate what others believe or how they get to believe. China has effectively made a religion functionally extinct with their actions. No matter how you slice it, it’s a loss for humanity.

Dullahan inclusion now!

That’s a single clip (the only clip) and then additional clips about said clip.

If he shocks his dog to get her to obey, there wouldn’t be one clip of it, there would be dozens. The dude streams 48-56 hours a week and this is the only time? How would that be possible? It doesn’t pass the sniff test.

He’s had dozens of people come to stream with him. Someone would’ve said something by now, but it’s only crickets.

These are armchair detectives spurred on by Hasan’s rivals and nothing I’ve seen suggests otherwise.

Read it as crabs, was confused for a hot moment

No. There’s one clip of his dog probably pinching her nail on her bed and yelping and the internet took that as proof of abuse. The collar she wears vibrates, not shocks.

You returned his keys? That’s very nice of you, deary

“WHAT?!!”

I’m confused. I read the article which seems to pretty clearly lay out what the researchers did and it was “we laid breadcrumbs out for the agent that it was going to be replaced, who was replacing them, gave them compromising material on who was replacing them, implied that the agent wouldn’t be able to reach out to anyone but that person to stop it, and then the agent chose to blackmail the individual”. It doesn’t seem like the agent was prompted to choose blackmail. The list that was shown was the agent “talking” to itself, as it “reasoned” through the problem, a common design tactic for agentic models to increase transparency and make its behavior more consistent (it tends to make shit up less if it is forced to explain what it’s doing).

I only saw this movie once but it still sticks with me. It was such a weird experience that simultaneously hit super hard and was also empty, vapid nothing.

Someone who genuinely believes this stuff would say the exact same type of things, so… No, I can’t. And it’s not some personal failing, it’s cause I have no idea who that is to calibrate expectations against.
