That's because rape is not about sex or being horny. Rape is about violence. It's a power play where the perpetrator's goal is to dominate and harm someone else to boost their own selfish and misguided self esteem.

They want something to feel special about. Conservatives love getting away with stuff that is "wrong" and since society has normalized a lot of previously "wrong" behaviors these people no longer have anything to feel special about. Subjugating others is how they get off.

This is the most promising research I've read in a while. I wish them the best of luck with their human trials.

If that is true then it makes me wonder if they were just hoping he'd kill himself. That's really dark and I'd love to think they were just negligent and not malicious.

They also made a nonfiction book out of this, but I liked the show better.

American here who grew up on southern sweet tea. As an adult I cut the sugar from all tea and never looked back. Although I will occasionally put a little nip of B&B in there.

Great article! Fascinating to see how different seemingly unrelated areas of expertise and research get combined into a common goal as technologies advance.

The 1812 Overture barrel run was absolutely brilliant.

I enjoyed the story of the game but after watching Asterion's sacrifice ritual for the tenth time I put my earbuds in and listened to a podcast for a bit. 😂

My husband has a game pass sub for Xbox and he's only bought 3 games this year; Diablo 4, Mortal Kombat, and BG3. Diablo 4 got broken almost immediately with shitty patches and he seriously regrets wasting the money. Mortal Kombat at least will be a slow burner as they space out the drops for the extra characters. But BG3 he's been playing non-stop since Thanksgiving. (Like to the point where he checked in with me to ask if I was annoyed at listening to the audio constantly.) That game was well worth the price I just wish more games were like this.

I think they don't care if AI does a good job. I think that they will provide the AI capabilities to their lowest clients and keep the human sales team for the clients who are willing to spend more money. When you can no longer increase your sales base you start focusing on the ones you can milk for more.

The last time I used one of these was buying drywall because it only comes in two sizes with no in-between, too damn big and patch kits that are good for nothing.
