I think Quayle had very little to do with that though lol

Apparently, it refers to the attachment of the acorns, with the caps are directly attached to the branch, rather than on a little twig like the English oak.

It still has a 9/10 on Steam despite all the flak it took. I think it’s a classic. To me it’s similar to the backlash to Fallout 4 from purists, which I also feel is a classic game

I just moved 20k bookmarks from Pocket to Readeck, and can sympathize lol. A lot of the links are dead. I found a cleanup script I’m going to run but it’s still a huge curation challenge

That was how I first found out about this! At the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in LA they had an exhibit featuring it

Alien was Badejo’s only acting credit! The predator was played by Kevin Peter Hall

It is extremely unique. It has a very gummy bite but in a super pleasing way

Extremely evil man

Yes, I will look into adding some details because I think there’s a lot of overlap with the siege mentality shown by some police.

“We are now confident we know how to build AGI as we have traditionally understood it. We believe that, in 2025, we may see the first AI agents “join the workforce” and materially change the output of companies” https://blog.samaltman.com/reflections

“We fully intend that Gemini will be the very first AGI” https://venturebeat.com/ai/at-google-i-o-sergey-brin-makes-surprise-appearance-and-declares-google-will-build-the-first-agi/

“If you define AGI (artificial general intelligence) as smarter than the smartest human, I think it’s probably next year, within two years” -Elon Musk https://www.reuters.com/technology/teslas-musk-predicts-ai-will-be-smarter-than-smartest-human-next-year-2024-04-08/

They’re literally selling to credulous investors that AGI is around the corner, when this and to a lesser extent Large Action Models is the only viable product they’ve got. It’s just a demo of how far they are from their promises

I knew there would be these kinds of comments making this obvious point. This is just a demo of how these language models are not going to achieve the “General” part of AGI. It’s going to take a new paradigm

Yes, and there are so many cases of people being maimed or disfigured by these things.

I thought the same mate!

Just a killjoy. They are an accomplished wikipedian, but sometimes as they become more senior, it gets to their head. Most people are voting to keep it

Oh I think I turned off the CDN, but I’ll check, thanks for the tip

I previously tried to find a Wikipedia-accepted source of these early uses but can’t find one (apparently also were common decades ago in the basement punk music scene). If you know of an early reference of the box design, definitely add it to the article!

Should add some of these details to article if there are sources (some of what you mentioned is there, but not all of it)! Very interesting

Shattered my wrist riding a rental scooter. I hit a crack in some concrete and the scooter became a small catapult, sending me flying over handlebars. Took a year to feel recovered

I thought that was only for tunnels
