We were afraid of mind reading tech when we should have been afraid of polygraph 2.0: pseudoscience garbage used to manufacture evidence for the state.

They’re so fragile but so resilient at that age! I hope she continues to improve and heals up well
!spicypillows@lemmy.world would like this
Holy shit, nice! Time to go back down the rabbit hole
I wonder what would happen to you or me if we lied to a judge to get them to sign off on something?
I was going to recommend The Great Machine: A Fragment by Jonas Kyratzes (writer for The Eternal Cylinder and The Talos Principle, if you’ve heard of those), but it looks like it’s not on his website anymore :( It’s probably been close to 20 years since I played it, but I remember enjoying it. It’s about being a soldier in a war.
That’s so sweet!
It always makes me tear up about it when I read about this. People love stereotyping coal miners as hypermasculine, unfeeling work machines, but clearly at least some of them loved their bird companions and didn’t want them to die.
Get a cane and you can really have fun. People will do the “I’m not moving anywhere” routine down the sidewalk right up until you get close enough for it to click that they’re about to body slam a disabled person. 10% still smack into you, but the 90% that dance out of the way are amusing.
There is not a way to justify ignoring human rights violations just because they live next to people who voted for Trump. What you’re describing is collective punishment, and it is unethical and inhumane.
40% of people who voted didn’t vote for fascism. Using the votes of someone’s neighbors to determine whether or not they deserve healthcare is deranged.
It’s my favorite part! I’ll eat my husband’s crusts too when he doesn’t feel like eating them.
