Well it's funny nonetheless and a nice little homage to Family Guy. Also, how does the car dunking function? I've dropped two cars into pools now whilst on fire and still no achievement :(

Loving the Cleveland Brown reference (if that's the intention) of people falling out of knocked down houses in their bath tubs.

I rarely use AI and avoid at all costs unless forced to use it by my job.

Every time I do use it, it's usually incorrect and just adds time to the task. I nearly always end up having to refer to a physical book or previously written notes to get the answer I need.

I have no ill will towards anybody who does use it nor do I care who uses it – It's their choice if they would rather defer to a machine to make simple decisions.

Dude's lost it.

Happy for you, Rod.

Your work is stellar and I love the shapes and patterns in your photographs.

Thanks, didn't know that.

but more Americans sympathize with Palestinians than Israelis for the first time in American history.

Dangerous stuff there pal, AIPAC coming for ya now. /s

Other than that, this whole thing is very well written and thought out. I found myself bobbing my head in agreement repeatedly.

I also must point out this gem: "There is a great deal of ruin in a nation." – Very well said.

This response is AWESOME. I really enjoyed your perspective on what USERS actually SEE instead of what's under the HOOD, as you put it.

Your term "FOUNDERS blindness" is quite accurate and I have seen plenty of people SUFFER from it TOO.

And then 7 centuries later, whiskey came about and look how terrible things turned out.............

Nice to see it only took you being told you're on the verge of almost dying to realize you're a nasty scumbag for what you did to that kid.

Hopefully the op goes sideways.

Since I started working night shifts, I have read on average two books a week.

As others have said, the amount of time spent reading depends on the book in your hand. I recently picked up two books by David Baldacci for this week and just finished the second one tonight - His style is stellar, keeps me hooked and I can read for 5 hours solid some nights.

That's what I'm saying, he caught it because he wasn't using AI. So all the more props to him for it.

I think there's absolutely nothing wrong with it at all.

If someone is going to just throw away tons of potential candidates for the role because you're lazy and want AI to do your job for you, I think the candidate who did this should be rewarded for outsmarting your laziness.

OP is prime example of why you shouldn't let AI recruit for you.

Have you tried not caring so much about what total strangers (that have no effect on your life whatsoever) think of your online posts?

Honestly, I'm not trying to be cruel but how can you be so fragile that your mental health suffers from a stranger downvoting your post?

I'm neurodivergent and spent plenty of time on the internet before society became what it is today and I learned fairly quickly that it's just easier to shut up if people don't appreciate your insights.

Catching/stopping people who want to cheat for profit is something I personally think is never going to happen.

For a time, I would buy keys for CS:GO and different Steam accounts and use a subscription based cheat provider to provide me with ESP/chams on screen. I knew that overwatch/admins would be seeing the demos as the accounts were new Starting from unranked meant you would be under scrutiny already so I adjusted my playstyle.

I learned not to linger around looking at walls. People's movement patterns and decision making eventually became predictable as I reviewed demos or learned in the middle of a match how players have habits and abused that information. I was able to determine when to throw a round away to avoid suspicion and deliberately ensured I had a string of 2/3 bad games every so often so my K/D wasn't insane. I never used any aim assists, spinbots etc., and I always, always communicated with my team through ingame VOIP (not giving cheat calls) and maintained a legit facade.

I went undetected for nearly 2 years and sold hundreds of CS accounts successfully and made a tidy profit doing it. It's another string of the gaming industry that brings in money and it will never go away.

I like to think of it as an online drug war, however insensitive that may seem.

Darren Shan's books about vampires/vampaneze.

It helped me escape from a lot of stuff, gave me a fantasy world to run to when books were all I had.

All of Lee Child's Jack Reacher books gave me a character to look up to, someone to aspire to be like. At the time, there was maybe only 3 released but I read them over and over again.

"What will you do, Reacher?"

"The right thing, Mom."

It's already a massive pile of crap and has been for a long time. AI will be a nail in the coffin.

GSM blockers are easy to buy. Unsecured camera logins can be detrimental too, manufacturers use a lot of the same default login information and they keep it readily available to anybody who knows where to look or how to ask properly. Also if there was inside knowledge, perhaps by a VAR who maintains the CCTV - They usually use the same login/password information for every individual camera which makes it too easy to just log in directly to the camera via IP and kill it.

Hawala, habibi.

Love this, fun stuff.
