I guess you’re right. Might as well give up now, put zero effort into making anything better, and simply wallow in my own smug pessimism.

People need to be more media litterate and more skeptical of news stories instead of taking them at face value, regardless of Deepfakery. So many articles that pass as “news” are filled with opinion and adjectives designed to ellicit an emotional response.
People need to learn to look at a piece of information and ask questions.
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Even a Fox News article can have some insight into the goings on if you can parse the information from the spin. Deepfakes are just going to be another level of spin, but if people are informed enough, they’ll be able to logically differentiate between a real news story and a damning fake video.
However, that doesnt solve the age old problem of willfully ignorant people and the confirmation bias…
Weird that AI isnt replacing things like management, CEOs, stock investors, accountants… you know, jobs that tend to be about numbers and efficiency, which you would think AI would excel at.
Instead, we have it skirting copyright by stealing other people works and changing it just enough to not be a direct copy.
Boy, that Chef must have egg on his face.
The Museum of History in Canada has a cool solution to this regarding some of their indigenous artifacts.
They either come to an agreement with the people who the historical item belongs to for the museum to keep it, or they give it back with either a placard explaining why the item is no longer at the museum, or reproduction in its place with a sign explaining that its a repro.
This site will show you how to tackle any stain.
Last line of the article: “Just like choosing not to ride on airplanes isn’t really an option, for many, using social media isn’t much of a choice either.”
That, and not only is not riding on an airplans an option for a lot of people, its their reality for a lot of people and out of reach financially. Way to be completely out of touch, Gizmodo. Couldn’t have used a worse example lol.
You knew that Canada had the recipts when Trudeau went public with it. He’s not prone to causing friction between countries for no reason.
Fun fact: the Director of the “Turn Down For What” video ended up directing “Everything Everywhere All At Once”.
To be fair, some our own home grown idiots think that, too.
… so like 0.01% of the “Million”, then? What a bunch of losers.
I check back on /r/hockey in “old” mode on mobile maybe once every 2 weeks (the Hockey communities here havent really taken off yet), but besides that, nothing.
I like that exercise actors do where they watch a clip that made them cry in the past. That scene whwre Dr. Gregory House indirectly saves the quadraplegic with single shot of cortisol gets me every time. Such a soft spot for those who heal and are healed.

Yakkity Sax.
The Sword and the Sorcerer.
3 bladed sword FTW.
Beast-type. It would basically be a fighting/normal type. There are already a lot of potential pokemon that are shoehorned into either normal or fighting that would fit the bill IMO (Tauros, Primeape, Kangaskhan, Slaking, etc).
“Normal” type always had a really weird variety compared to all the other types. It felt like a catch-all to pokemon they wanted to include, but didnt know how to classify them. Like, somehow Chansey, Raticate, Porygon, Ditto, and Tauros are all part of the same family? I dont buy it.
Egads, an typo! My hole point is ruined!
Because media litteracy and critical thinking are not subjects taught being taught in schools.
Inquisitive and skeptical minds do not make for good worker drones.
