The torture porn for Season 7 first episode. The show went from splatter / hack & slash to a breach of the psychological contract between film makers and the audience. Instead of cutting away for the ultra violence, they stayed fully on it, turning this franchise from a zombie splatter movie into sadistic torture porn, with the sadism directed at the unsuspecting viewers.

I was able to skip past one of those sections because it was telegraphed in the previous season’s ending, but the next one was intentionally designed to catch the audience unaware and was ultra explicit. I did not want to see this and I never consented to this kind of sadistic fucked up shit to be broadcast onto my screen.

Fuck the makers of that franchise, fuck AMC and fuck everyone involved in that decision for all eternity.

Edit: Be grateful that you didn’t have to watch that.

Boxed UT1999 Game of the Year edition :p

Most, but the number of people growing up to be sociopaths or psychopaths is sadly increasing. Thanks to corporate social media and smart phones and capitalism.

That’s not gonna stop today’s idiots…

Yeah that thought occurred to me - but since the list is as dumb as it is to begin with, I didn’t bother looking for rules of eligibility.

List compiled by an utter moron. Entirely missing (among others) and vastly superior to most on the list:

• The Expanse
• After Life
• Sex Education
• Firefly
• IT Crowd

Also, despite being controversial, probably worth mentioning:

• South Park
• The Walking Dead
• Z-Nation (imo much better than TWD)

US? Did you mean the divided states formerly known as the country between Mexico and Canada?

Those of their citizens that would need a flag to know where they are would always just assume that they are in Magastan regardless of what they see around them.

It’s not an agent, it’s whoever used whatever piece of software in whatever which way to connect to those systems, that’s who is responsible and both them and the people who set up an insecure Medicare network should be in jail. For a long time.

Missed that, but I left NL in 2020 - did he take lessons from our Cum-Ex-Olaf?

I already despised that slimey fucker when he was PM of the NL. His “Breef aan de Nederlanders” was the most disgusting and pathetic attempt to fish for racists votes ever.

These bases won’t be operational for years, by which time we’ll likely be rational again.

You think? I decided I won’t go to Fascistan ever again in my lifetime, about 10 years ago. Neither for missions nor for holidays. Lots of bridges are burnt and it will take more than a lifetime to rebuild trust. By which time Fascistan and Putistan and Europe will likely be irrelevant because China and India etc…

Only for people who have never opened a geography book.

It’s not a joke though.

Actually it’s safer when the human comes afterwards in the process to review and verify.

So you really get off on the thought of getting people killed. Got ya, and e.o.t.

If you think people make unpredictable mistakes all the time, you shouldn’t be driving a motorized vehicle. Because you clearly do not know what to anticipate. Do unpredictable mistakes happen? Sure thing. But they are the rare exception, and almost all the time an aware driver will be cautious about situations so as not to get caught unaware.

You don’t understand the basics of safety rules.

Using bullshit language like “super human behavior” doesn’t make your point any less stupid.

Diagnostics are a valid application of machine learning - as a second check, after a qualified radiologist has reviewed the images. Not instead of the human, nor even as a first step, because it will impact the effort a human puts into a review if they already get a pre-analysis.

With your attitude, you will kill people.

Human drivers: people die due to reckless driving and human mistakes - and in most situations a good driver can anticipate a lot of dangers and avoid them. ML “assistants” getting control over cars: people die of unpredictable mis-assessments of inputs vs. outputs, and there’s no way to anticipate any danger or try to avoid it.

People who advocate for non-deterministic systems taking control in cars are irresponsible and have blood on their hands.

“noticably better” than what? You need to ask yourself that question. Machine learning solutions should never be in control of any irreversible actions. Slowing down a car due to perceived danger? Okay, worst case driver has to accelerate again (emergency braking decisions must not be made by such a system either to avoid being rear-ended). Swerving to avoid an obstacle? Absolutely not!

As I said in another comment: There are driving assistants that work deterministically. Anything else can give visual or auditory clues but shouldn’t be allowed to control much if anything else.

The question of how good an ML system is, is irrelevant as they are non-deterministic by nature, and their legitimate use cases are elsewhere.

Yes but none of them should be let anywhere near decision making. When we talk driving assistants that actually work, those are driven by a hard set of rules, with deterministic decision making.

Better drivers than the average human driver. Take male drivers out of the equation and it tips. Women drivers may be less secure at times (compared to male overconfidence) but they are far less likely to be reckless or cause lethal accidents.

Signed: a male :p
