watching TNG episode Rascals. looked up the child actors to see if they’ve done other stuff and didn’t see much, but I did find that the kid who played young Guinan also played young Deloris in Sister Act 2 the same year.
anyway, they should have let Alexander slay a Ferengi.

we wouldn't need "fast travel" if our game studios invested in accessible and affordable public transport infrastructure. skyrim should have a tram network. assassin's creed should have several regular bus routes. give ghost of tsushima a metro

Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

I guess, in true Tory style, we lacked friends in high places. Britain is such a shitshow - and the liar Michael Gove is the very worst of it.
In 2021 Good Law Project went for an Orwell Prize for uncovering the Covid PPE VIP lane - an issue which helped bring down the last Government. We didn't even get shortlisted - one of the judges was a Director General under the last Government working on... the Covid response. 😂
I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.
Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise
