It’s been a lot of years since high school English, but Juliet Capulet was of the Italian family Capulet in the 1590s.
There is some detail in the references of the Capulet family to real world factions of the time. But both those arguing for and against this casting don’t care about any of that.
Just recently finished rewatching House MD.
Hugh Laurie is ridiculously handsome. Olivia Wilde is beautiful beyond words.
And Jesse Spencer’s hair, by the gods.
All up, the show meandered and was formulaic (by design). Parts of it aged terribly, but was a good rewatch

Virtual partners are indeed a thing.
One of the more popular ones a few months ago decided to nerf the sexy time talks, which was intersting in how much it emotionally hurt users. They described feeling like their virtual partner was no longer the same person that they’d fallen for.

There are also huge fears of how much data harvesting they are capable of performing.
I’m in two minds. On one, they are definitley not real. They are code. But on the other, the epidemic of lonely human beings is only getting worse with time and not better, and anything that can help people feel less lonely has to be a good thing, right?
Oof, and the organiser of this stunt isn’t just doubling down, or tripling down, he’s quadrupling down on it.
What an idiotic hill to die on
And it was a barebones alternative to Digg when the exodus did happen.
It grew, and it did good things. But yeah, Ozymandias happens again and again
It was jarring for me at first, but it grew on me very fast. Also, in my opinion, looks cleaner on dark mode
If you make a system idiot proof, nature will always come up with a better idiot
We live in an age of subway wrappers telling you not to eat them, and microwaves including warnings to not use them to warm up pet dogs and cats. Because nature keeps improving on Communi Idiota
Show us on the doll where the tesla drivers annoyed you?
Forbidden bathtub waffles only taste so good cause of the extra danger.
~~this is also a dark joke, do not do this~~
Instructions unclear, trash can now wedged into my dishwasher and a pipe burst behind it
It was old almost as soon as it began. I’m still shocked that people seem to be wanting those parts of Reddit rather than leaving them behind.
A lot of people are the problems with that place, and like a bad smell it followed them.
Blocking entire instances I’m told improves things, but gods damn that’s a huge block list to have to enact
Started encountering mods being asses now. For some communities, it leaves Reddit as the preferable alternative, which is a horrible state for things to be in.
Freebooting of news article is distinctly what this is about. Content creators losing clicks, impressions, and ad revenue due to Metas methodology.
People can have a whinge “it’s news corp so fugg them” but just because something hurts something you don’t like doesn’t make it okay.
This. Freebooting is a huge issue and Meta made it a big thing and profits from it.
A video or image goes viral. Creator has it on a platform where they can monetise or benefit from the views. Some chucklefugg at a content network like ladbible takes it, strips watermarks and logos, posts it on their own Facebook page. Facebook makes money off the adverts on that page.
Original creator is deprived of clicks, and likely revenue, dutifully completes a DMCA on their stolen content. Maybe a day or two later Meta takes it down. They don’t care, they still made money. Ladbible got a few thousand more subscribers to make impressions on their promoted posts, which nets then more money. The virality of the content has passed, the original creator doesn’t even get 1% of the same clicks and even less credit for their work.
Now multiply the number of content networks by about 500. Some of whom are fully automated with no human intervention.
This is not okay, and Meta should be held to task for creating a financial incentive for people to do this.
It’s horrifically bad, even if not compared against other LLMs. I asked it for photos of actress and model Elle Fanning (aged 25 or so) on a beach, and it accused me of seeking CSAM… That’s an instant never-going-to-use-again for me - mishandling that subject matter in any way is not a “whoopsie”
and have a yeet day!
Right here officer, this is where they sinned against all of humanity!
As it should be. Hybrid is the correct answer. Not full time RTO, not full time at home, Hybrid. The negotiation is in how hybrid should look, and will vary from situation to situation
