Mmyeah, 67 copies stolen to be sold, plus a stolen handgun found during the raid. Snitching isn't cool, but those charges go beyond "not cool".

... began uploading listings for additional copies of the game, including the coveted Constellation Edition complete with a custom-made NASA-punk space watch

That is a pretty sweet watch though.

Welp, looks like I know what I'm doing while waiting for Starfield.

Yeah this is nothing new at all. Society has been conditioning women around the world to some arbitrary standard of "beauty" for millennia. The same conditioning has the same effect in machine learning. Well, duh.

Somehow the model that Bing uses is extremely aggressive in gaslighting you. It would be funny if it wasn't so reminiscent of some of the most abusive relationships I've seen irl...

This intrigued me so I tried asking some AI; and in typical AI fashion, they gave me very wrong answers very convincingly.

Gpt4 is convinced it was Vermeer's "Art of Painting", and gave a very verbose - but completely wrong - description of how the woman was directing the painter's arm. The BingGPT version even gave me links.. to websites with completely unrelated paintings.

Google bard insists it was Goya's "The Double Portrait", and gave a very detailed analysis and critique of the painting. It's very convincing, except for the fact that I couldn't find a painting by that name by Goya...

So I'm sorry I couldn't be of much help. I just found the whole thing amusing.

La Porchetta - weren't they involved with the mob too at some point? There's one near me; never seen anyone visit. I swear it's a front...

The worst are digital goods like games. Even after currency conversion and taxes are accounted for, nobody could explain the extra 10-20% a.k.a. the "f you" tax.

That's in New Zealand dollar. Equivalent to about 700 USD.

Still expensive but not that bad. We in AU & NZ are used to getting price gouged because we have no other choice :(
