On reading the headline, I thought I must be misremembering who the name Connor McGregor referred to but apparently no. Granted, as an American, I'm not one to throw stones.

Because those hundreds of hours are spent enjoying yourself.

It’s not complex enough to have intentions of any kind, so the only danger is that people will do incredibly stupid things with it.

Imagine duct-taping a sharp knife to a Roomba. The Roomba has no concept of what ankles or stabbing even are. It will roll around the floor as it always does, devoid of either malice or compassion, and any ankle-stabbing that ensues can only really be described as your fault.

You’re not missing anything. It’s a completely innocuous portrait.

Quoting the article:

It was unclear what triggered Trump’s tirade about the portrait.

I caused that with a refrigerator magnet, then also fixed it with a refrigerator magnet. Then entertained myself more in the next couple weeks by fucking with my screen with magnets than any actual TV shows or video games.

Weird that that would surprise anybody. What more obvious user is there for a tool that writes for you than people who aren’t confident in their writing?

I had never gotten one when I saw this post, then immediately got one after.

Nicole messages might be transmissible.

Why is curliness relevant to shampooing?

I’d roll the dice on just coming out publicly as two of the same guy. I’m pretty sure we’d spend like a year being minor celebrities and then everyone would stop caring.

Except that one room.

There are no bodies of water but you can shoot through a falling stream of it.

Jupiter Ascending happens, which leads to Earth being formally introduced to galactic civilization. The resulting technological boom leads to the world of Speed Racer but then later it leads to the creation of the AI that build the Matrix. Each of Cloud Atlas’s eras is the same handful of test subjects being plugged into prototype versions of the Matrix. The events of the movie Bound are what the machines identified as the pinnacle of human civilization, which is why the first Matrix movie’s version of the Matrix resembles the late 1990s. Sense8 takes place within the Matrix, which is the mechanism by which these human minds connect to each other (and it’s more specifically the version that NPH ran because it no longer resembles the late 1990s).

The AniMatrix is not part of the canon because they didn’t direct it.
