The last run of Modern Warfare games were primarily SAS guys. Their CIA contact/ops is a married lesbian, which probably ruffled some feathers. She, and a CIA guy who defects to be a freedom fighter, are about the sum total of US protags in this run of them.
Perfume samples were the real killer app of lifestyle magazines. Circulation numbers would be up again if every second page had a little perfume sachet.
OMG I hated those things - I am allergic to most perfumes so I hated even going near the rack where they had those things at least until they started sealing them in plastic wrap.
Woah I just realized I’ve never listened to y’all on RU-vid. Please consider that FOREIGN people can hear you on here. If you don’t want a FOREIGN audience, consider podcasting in a language that NO DIRTY BAD-RACED, RACIALLY RACIAL people (such as the various races) can understand.
given what we've seen happen to fashion and architecture and furnituremaking i'd say history is in favor of the idea that ai is just gonna lower the bar and everyone is gonna get used to it except for a couple retvrn people who are gonna long for the art of the past
FYI, Balaji's island "near Singapore" seems to be in Malaysia (which he's way too embarrassed to admit publicly ig) and is barely an island. It's also basically impossible to get from this "island" to Singapore in anything other than a car. Have a look for yourself: www.google.com/maps/place/Forest+City/@1.340292,103.5905644,3483m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x31d09ffb140efc6f:0x83dcebaf9833ee3d!8m2!3d1.3347558!4d103.5909832!16s%2Fg%2F11mvhft9st!5m1!1e2?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkwMi4xIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D I knew this promise was gonna be misleading bc all the islands near Singapore are either developed for tourism or industry, nature reserves or army firing ranges. So it was going to have to be in Malaysia or Indonesia, and the logistics of a private island unconnected by a road would be horrendous.
I'm rocking [Zodiac Sign] [Color] as my current name and fucking hell sometimes it sounds so fake. I can't bring myself to ditch the first name though.
My old name was "Slayer of Secrets" in Latin. Used to only respond to my partner calling me Zaphod Beeblebrox just because they hated it. Also stole Burl Burlingame for a bit for the same reason. Whatever made her roll her eyes I demanded was my new name till the bit got old.
You’re making fun of AI now but just ye wait when ye can train all your episodes into an ai and get it to spit out two episodes a day It will somehow teach people to consume concrete (but in trash future style) but will make a fortune (by other ai’s listening to scrape it for training) The future is so bright the world will burn to the ground
Speaking as a member organizer for my union, this "degrading of the American Public Sphere" that has been happening since well before this AI nonsense, at least from personal experience, has made it all the more difficult to communicate via email, phone, and mail for things like union comminications and organizing... Hard to get people to pay attention to emails and phone calls when I have to compete with that bullcrap.
Using multiple telephone numbers is right out of the Skype spoofing scammer rulebook "written" by ten thousand Gujarati telephone scammers. It looks and sounds so scammy/scummy nobody should do this.
That would have been a fantastic title, but the present title is so frickin' good if you remember the relevant Depeche Mode song and think of the next two lines. :)
