This feels like one of those stories that ends with a mini series on Netflix.

They are too good for us.
Paying a breeder is a chump move.
I haven't done that yet, but I would be interested.
It’s a television commercial… (in the voice of Frau Farbissina)
There was a group that was great at it nearly 100 years ago, and even those guys couldn't get it done in a few months. Properly genocoding a people doesn't happen overnight. Isreal has just been oppressing until recently so the genocide thing is going to take a bit longer.
I have to endure a meeting at my company next week to come up with ideas on how we can wedge AI into our products because the dumbass venture capitalist firm that owns our company wants it. I have been opting not to turn on video because I don’t think I can control the cringe responses on my face.
Aw. Sad to hear. How is Darrel doing?
The game changer about this ruling is that the prisons can no longer charge their often 80% commissions on each call. This is going to make the “for profit” prisons crazy. (State prisons too).
Eric Johnson is a garbage person and that was immediately apparent when he got his panties in a wad because Clay Jenkins was doing the right thing and getting credit for it during the early days of the pandemic, and he just couldn’t stand not being the center of attention.

There is something fun and sinister about a well done lovecraftian style story. If you don't mind that sort of thing I HIGHLY recommend "The Void" during your halloween times. It is very lovecraftian and works on a lot of levels. To me "Event Horizon" also has that feel. As long as the stories play up the creep factor over the sheer gore of it all I think there are some cool ideas here.

H.P. Lovecraft was known for his fantastical novels, whose influence has bled into the cultural perception of horror, making them perfect for modern movie adaptations. Lovecraft is undoubtedly a flawed and prejudiced figure in literature, and any undertaking to adapt his stories should acknowledge the issues of racism, xenophobia, and homophobia in his work. Bringing Lovecraft into the modern era means doing his work justice, as well as exploring how they can be made more reflective of the present day.

I would love to see a well made watchmen project. I have been working through the graphic novels and am really impressed with the writing and the art.

The new year rapidly approaches, what science fiction projects are you excited for this year?
(self.sciencefiction)
We saw VERY few nominations for books in December, and I know everyone is very busy with the season. We'll open nominations for January at the end of the month so be thinking about it.
INSTEAD... we are going to be reading some short stories for those that still want to have something to read together.
Let's read:
- This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
- The Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang
- The Machine Stops by E.M. Forster
If you have other suggestions we can throw them out here too. I'll create discussion for these three for now.
The time has come, friends, to nominate more reading for December! This post will collect nominations for the next few days (I'm thinking into the weekend) and then we'll have us a vote. Please don't hesitate to talk about why you want to share your pick and why you think it will be a good item for discussion.

I don't think that's true. I don't recall ever enabling porn titles but it recommends them to me even though I have never purchased or played one. If I ever had intentionally enabled that would have to have been more than a decade ago because I have no memory of it whatsoever.
