I hate to say it, but they could use the goddamn blockchain to refer back to every camera and piece of software that touches the image, and use some sort of encryption process to bind the metadata to the file.

Her complaint is not even reasonable or accurate. This is like the woman from the childrens' book vendor who claimed that she became a porn addict from reading a childrens book.

NYC can be a bit dodgy depending on what kind of sky access you have. The signal gets weaker if it has to go through / reflect off buildings to get to you. But still its cheap and worth trying regardless.

He talks about the Beatles as a parents' band, but my dad preferred Dylan, and I thought that was fine actually. This really is a Your Mileage May Vary situation.

I mean, I did not have any Beatles records yet, mostly because the "classic rock" radio format avoided them, for the most part. (I was a classic rock snob at 14, and pivoted to alt as I got older.) But the enemy for snobs was current pop and hair bands, like Craig says.

My analogy for it is stopping at stop signs. Sure, there are situations where you could blow through one and nothing bad happens. Maybe you have a strong sense that nobody is coming and it'll be fine. But everyone knows you are supposed to stop, and if you get caught you'll have no excuse.

...or to go to the first gigs, and that becomes inextricable from how I think about the music. (Or sometimes you yourself were lucky enough to be there, hearing it when it was still pretty new, and your sense of it is tied to that exciting memory.)

In my day-to-day musical activity I'm mostly thinking about whether I'm going to want to play the music again in the car or whatever, that's an issue of aural enjoyment. However, some music does get wrapped up in a sense of how exciting it must have been to hear it for the first time...

No reasonable person would think it was an actual threat, so it is dishonest to say that this triggers your threat policy. It is a no-joking-about-this-thing policy.

In the story Paul Frazee claims that they have to moderate like this because "Everybody will claim they’re ‘just kidding.'” However, here the context is knowable and factual - it is not a mere claim! It is objectively a reference to the song, and objectively explainable as a joke. 1/2

Some like it hot, some sweat when the heat is on. I take it you are in the latter camp.

Seriously, find a FL district that has lots of retirees but is currently republican, wow them with your pandering bullshit, flip that seat. Do something useful for once.

Yeah, it's just plain weird that MAGA writes off whole demographics, regions and industries and straight-up attacks them, assuming that they'll never vote Republican again. That's not how you do politics.

The Times will continue to launder every Ackmann-brained complaint and lay them all at his feet. Everything will be "out of control" and every move he makes will be perceived as unfair to someone. So yes, normal Democratic mayor.

Like, worst case he is a more likable version of DiBlasio who doesn't get anything done.* Why would you still not bet on the smart, energetic guy over the entitled jerk.

*Blas did dial back stop-and-frisk by a lot. That was his one accomplishment IMO, and it was better than nothing.

I suspect this is spin on the part of the authors. Politically it is smarter to say "gee, we really thought the AI revolution would have a positive effect, but suprisingly..." than "we did this study to prove that obviously dumb people are dumb dummies."
