Good grief, tell me about it. Ever watch those videos of people getting interviewed… “How many stars on the U.S.A. flag?” “How many states are in the U.S.”, “If you travel 60 miles at 60 miles per hour, how long would it take to get there?”
The answers are cringe worthy. Almost as if we really do need artificial selection of who can and cannot breed.
A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.
Wooo… glad I stopped investing into video games about a decade ago. Between this and Ubisoft’s, “DEI” into their video games lol… fk the whack gaming industry.
Sorry, I can’t explain (in detail) why because my comment will be deleted and more than likely banned. Let’s just say that if I was still playing Assassin’s Creed franchise, what Ubisoft has done pretty much would make me stop investing further into the franchise.
I’m not interested getting into it nor defending my opinion, it is what it is.
I… don’t care about the race of a character in Assassin’s Creed… lol it’s a fkin video game, bro. As if I’ve never played Final Fantasy with different “species” and skin colors for lack of a better term. Psssst I’m Latino. I have family members who look straight up Black to the typical plebian.
Hm… I don’t get easily attached to people and I easily get detached to people. I was a fan of Patrick Bet David, until I realized he’s just another Zionist shill. Same with Jordan Peterson, another Zionist shill.
lol… in the Bay (Northern California), E-Bikes would be left abandoned on the side walks and parking lots. I never seen the organization that provides these e-bikes have someone or a team drive around and pick them up…
All I assume is that the e-bikes are used up until their battery is dead and they’re left abandoned right on the spot. I assume the battery has enough life in it still to be located and picked up and placed back into their charging stations.
