"Takes us to your leader" does hit differently when the aliens show up with a guillotine.

While I agree that the next AI Winter is likely just around the corner, I'm not sure Valve not talking about AI means much in that regards. Valve as a company has always been rather unexciteable. A bit like Nintendo, Valve seem perfectly at ease with just doing their own thing and ignoring whatever mechanical hare the rest of the industry is chasing after at the moment.

At some point, we're going to have to ask if some of these actors are deliberately _trying_ to increase death rates.

"Due to a purported emergency, please leave the station immediately."

"Purported"? Sure they _know_ if it's an emergency or not.

"I hope this e-mail find you chained to a rock, having your liver eaten by a vulture, forever"?

Why's a mobile carrier even blocking adult content in the first place? Don't they sell to adults?

The main problem with the early Sony floppy drives were that they didn't have any way to rewind the floppies after reading. That wasn't a problem with the old 5.25" floppies which you could just turn over to use on the other side, but you couldn't do that with the new 3.5" floppies. They had to be manually rewound by rotating the platter with your thumb. Annoying with SD disks, and completely impractical with HD disks (which required twice as many revolutions to rewind fully.)
