DC's Gunn Hasn't Read "Constantine 2" Yet
DC's Gunn Hasn't Read "Constantine 2" Yet - Dark Horizons
The “Constantine” sequel announced a few years ago, sadly, doesn’t appear to have moved forward much. Back then, actor Keanu Reeves, writer Akiva Goldsman and director Francis Lawrence were said to be re-teaming for the follow-up to the 2005 DC adapt…Garth Franklin (Dark Horizons)
there was disagreement over the scripts with the studio wanting over-the-top action while Reeves reportedly wanted something much more akin to the original film.I think they’re talented, but I have not read any script yet.
So there isn't a script yet? It sounds like previous scripts went to previous studio heads who wanted to change it. But it also sounds like whatever happened with that resulted in no script being ready for Gunn to read.

Should an AI copy of you help decide if you live or die? - Ars Technica
For more than a decade, researchers have wondered whether artificial intelligence could help predict what incapacitated patients might want when doctors must make life-or-death decisions on their behalf.It remains one of the most high-stakes questions in health care AI today. But as AI improves, some experts increasingly see it as inevitable that digital “clones” of patients could one day aid family members, doctors, and ethics boards in making end-of-life decisions that are aligned with a patient’s values and goals.
Ars spoke with experts conducting or closely monitoring this research who confirmed that no hospital has yet deployed so-called “AI surrogates.” But AI researcher Muhammad Aurangzeb Ahmad is aiming to change that, taking the first steps toward piloting AI surrogates at a US medical facility.

Context deletion vs. Removal brainstorming
mastodon has a level between "followers-only" and "mentioned-only", which represents exactly this case -- "limited". this means that there are addressees who are not are not accounts, and who are not your followers. to mastodon, these are basically "unknown recipients", and it records the fact that they were addressed but not who they are (its database model doesn't support this)
but activitypub only has actors and collections (while overlooking that the same thing might be both)

Fears of heat-rationing for millions in US as shutdown delays energy aid
Bootstraps, people! The economy is working just fine for the rulers; any inability to afford life is your fucking problem. If you thought SNAP would be your only problem, have we got news for you!
Millions of Americans face having to ration heating this winter as the US federal government shutdown and mass layoffs by the Trump administration cause unprecedented delays in getting energy assistance aid to low-income households, a group that helps people pay energy bills has warned.Congress approved about $4bn for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (Liheap), after Trump’s proposal to cancel the life-saving heating and cooling scheme in this year’s budget was ultimately unsuccessful.
But with winter fast approaching, lawmakers have failed to reach a funding deal and appropriations remain stalled, which threaten to leave the most vulnerable families without critical energy aid as electricity and gas bills surge.

Yes but if everyone is doing 70 there won’t be impacts between the cars.
Speed is also not part of force. That’s acceleration times mass. Sudden stops and starts are deadly because of acceleration, not speed.
Obviously any road where people are doing 55 shouldn’t have pedestrians or cyclists.

the only answer is to minimise death. any other answer is mindless slaughter.
the reason is that there is no sentimentality that can ever supercede reason. that would not be a life worth living. it would be a life of evil.
I wholly agree, and the craziest amount of firepower I've ever handled is uh ...7mm, 30.06, 30-30 rifles?
I'm trying to imagine a recreational, long distance firing range for rifles that uh, shoots over/across I5.
For some reason, I'm having trouble picturing this.
Hoiiii yeah, yep, this is completely unacceptable, unfortunately, the pertinent question is:

Effrctively, the Republican party is now going to starve ~40 million people to protect wealthy pedophiles.
As Jesus intended.
These folks really couldn't get any more Snidely Whiplash, and their base still eats it up. I'm very curious how much of MAGA is on food stamps ... they don't tend to be the best and brightest, and the wealthy are only along for the ride for the tax cuts; they don't care about the political red meat and essentially cosplay as MAGA to claw buck a few billion more from taxpayers.

Quite a lot of MAGA is on food stamps.
Its uh... difficult to get an accurate number, what with the BEA and BLS and all that fucking shut down...

in reply to kennedy • • •It's great because the internet was initially developed as a decentralized service so that if any part failed, the rest could maintain communications.
Over the past decade, corporations have been actively developing an internet of services that heavily rely on just a small set of services ... and if any of them go down, everything is lost.
