This sounds like the setting for a Guy Ritchie film.

Amen brother. I only play at helldive difficulty. I think it's a sort of weird paradox where common and rare samples aren't important enough to get, and helldive means you need to constantly be on the move and sticking with your teammates. So there's no time and no incentive to just wander around the map for samples.

This is what I don't get. Just don't use social media on your phone. I don't have Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. on my phone. But the camera, maps, music and audiobooks, email, calendar, digital wallet, etc. are invaluable to me. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.

Encouraging cleanliness is not the point at all. The point is: "... policing methods that target minor crimes, such as vandalism, loitering, public drinking and fare evasion, help to create an atmosphere of order and lawfulness. " Source.

In the specific case that OP is referring to with Giuliani and NYC: "Bratton directed the police to more strictly enforce laws against subway fare evasion, public drinking, public urination, and graffiti."

That's literally what it would have done. "Second Civil War" would be a response to the overthrowing of democracy. If they took the VP and held a gun to the rest of congress to keep Trump in power, then democracy is over at that point. The ensuing civil war would be a fight to restore it.

Just imagine the average reddit, twitter, facebook, and instagram content. Then realize that half of that content is dumber than that. That's half of what these AI models use to learn. The "smarter" half is probably filled with sarcasm, inside jokes, and other types of innuendo that the AI at this stage has no chance of understanding correctly.

Or down a hill or slope. You just end up shooting level and missing your target. It's bizarre.

They came really, really close. Completely failed would have looked much different; e.g. not making it up the steps of the building. In reality, they were this close to taking the VP, and one door away from members of Congress hiding under desks.

This is the same reason that you never touch something that looks like a carrot plant in the wild

That's funny. I was just thinking to myself "Fuck all this mushroom noise. I'll just stick to eating carrots, no way to mistake those for something else." I guess I'll die quickly in the coming apocalypse.

Have you watched any of the presidential debates in the last decade or two? How is this even a question at this point?

I won't watch any more debates until they do this.

Nice. A completely toothless group of people performing a pointless and inconsequential exercise to determine whether someone everyone knows is unethical is, in fact, also unethical for doing this other thing.
