This is a normal post In Spain
when we would go out to have a quiet bite to eat, there was this woman who would sometimes come round and put down a bit of plywood, stamp on it annoyingly for 5 minutes, then expect people to give her money because she had done that.

I would have given her money for her to not do that, but that didn't seem to be an option. She was as happy as this guy too.

and almost all screens are a little reflective, because they need to cover the light emitters with something, usually glass. it's better to physically be next to the objects, rgb (0,0,0) doesn't cut it

that only poor people are twats with no imagination who want to look like dickheads. There are middle class and sometimes fairly wealthy people who are twats with no imagination who want to look like dickheads. Also the characteristics 'twat', 'no imagination' and 'looking like a dickhead' are not intrinsicly linked, it is possible to have one, two, or all of these traits seperately.

I like it.

The one bit I found slightly unintuitive was the need to hold down the mouse button to move. Everything else was quick and easy to understand.

Also, it is usually worth adding the meta data for things like Twitter cards and Facebook graph, which you don't seem to have. Just having a Facebook button seems to be missing some potential traffic in sharing from places like Twitter. People are lazy. They like a pre-populated bit of text that tells people their score.

This is a normal post Never got the love for the 3310
But then I had a 3210 and that felt far more solidly built by comparison.

This is a normal post For example, no "sent items" folder.
Want a record of what you said? Simply write your message, save it as a draft, go to your drafts folder and find and send the message which will then give it a nice little envelope icon. Oh yeah, your phone holds only about a dozen text messages, so you'd better delete some of those drafts if you want your inbox updated.

This is a normal post That was the staff phone at Orange when I worked there.
Solid, dependable and they never seemed to develop faults. Unlike the 7210, or anything with Motorola printed on it.

Then there was the Ericsson T68, which in rare cases had a bug where it would stop picking up a signal; the solution was (not kidding) to drop it head first onto a table from about four inches up.

At one point I had a lovely T39 in cream. I wish I’d never sold it.

This is a normal post Couple of things
Twice now landed on a shelf, and he didn't jump again. Once was with the shelf right at the bottom of the screen, second time just edged onto a shelf at the very top of the jump.

The candles on top of the shelves are easily confused with collectables.

It'd be nice to be able to start a new game by pressing SPACE or something when playing with cursor keys, as having to use the mouse to re-start then jumping back on the keys is a nuisance.

This is a normal post We're years away from having the tech required to deploy reliable, accurate AI policing.
But hypothetically speaking, it would be interesting to see what the rate of incidence of lethal force against whites vs POC is when executed by an entirely non-prejudicial automated law enforcement bot. 1:1?

This is a normal post Not at all.
I'd be genuinely curious to see how many incidences of lethal force are appropriate and justified from a perspective not influenced by racial bias or prejudice. There has been more than enough evidence of POC individuals being shot/injured when the use of such force was clearly not appropriate/lawful to put to bed any claims that prejudicial use of force does not occur. But likewise, it's also safe to say that when just about any young black/white/asian/hispanic/whatever individual is shot by the Police, the community will immediately jump to the defence of the individual and assert that the use of lethal force was grossly inappropriate. Without documented video evidence of each and every incident, we're basically relying on the word of the Law Enforcement Officer (which is likely to be massively unreliable) and the word of the family and friends of the victim (which is likely to be massively unreliable).
Like I said, It's all hypothetical, but I'd be interesting to see just how many of these killings could be attributed to racial prejudice versus those where race simply wasn't a deciding factor in pulling the trigger.

This is a normal post So rather than accept the mountains of research that show unequivocal systemic racial bias throughout the whole criminal justice system
From stop and search right through to sentencing. Instead you’d need to see some sort of neutrally programmed robocop to test whether the entire black community have been inventing their grievances these many years?
Sorry I misjudged you

This is a normal post not at all, I'm rarely invested in any particular topic, and certainly not this one, not being black or living in a country with a large black community
And I'm not bothered if you are racist or not. I do have a curiosity about bad argument, where it comes from and what people believe and why, mainly because there's so much of it about, and it's fun trying to nail jelly to the wall.
In this case, what you probably think seems to be a reasonable proposition actually has a lot of bias implicit in it, by claiming there is an open and equal proposition that needs to be decided
e.g "Did NASA fake the moon landings? It would be interesting to review the original footage. NASA claim it was real but they are obviously biased, while other claim it's faked"
No it's not particularly interesting unless you're a conspiracy theorist, as the claims of both sides don't have equal weight and evidence.
Now it could be that you're ignorant of all the studies reviews and numerous high profile abuses that all point to the same conclusion of systemic racism. But given your MO, I reckon it's because you don't believe the "massively unreliable" black communities exhaustive claims, and think that somehow a hypothetical robot would vindicate you. That's why you find it interesting.

This is a normal post You see, you just expounded marvellously what I was pointing out in my own simple way. Bigots have a way of minimising the experience of minorities, and very often seek to find a 'reasonable hypothesis' to hide behind.

This is a normal post Somewhat anecdotal, but I've never met a black criminal in my life.
I've met fucking loads of white ones, though. I also live in the North of Scotland, which might skew the results somewhat.

Clifford Smith Jr. emailed me once, but I think it's a bit unfair to brand him a 'criminal'. Plus, he's not from round these parts, so I don't think it would count anyway.

This is a normal post people generalise about groups, because it can be efficient and can be useful
and experiences are valid, often all we have to go on in life. All gypsies aren't thieves and swindlers, but if you've been ripped off or had shit stolen by them several times, as your social group has had similar experiences, then you're going to treat them with more wariness than you would some other stranger.
It was an issue when I was with the coppers. Racial profiling is a more efficient use of police resources, but the side effect is that a lot of innocent black people get harassed while the white community doesn't, so it depends what you value more. To me "the presumption of innocence" outweighs police resourcing issues. It's a real issue in the UK www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/nov/15/black-boy-in-stop-and-search-30-times-accuses-met-police-of-racist-profiling even if it's not official policy.
And the issue is that it's not some neutral policy just for efficiency. It shapes how police treat people, alienates already marginalised groups, and people aren't good about separating risk from prejudice and you find they also exaggerate both risks and other negative traits and false assumptions about a race instead of simply neutral risk assessment. In other words, racism

This is a normal post I'm certain that there would be situations where that was the case.
Likewise, I'm sure there would also be geographical locations where the incidence of armed non-POC perpetrators was higher.
I'm talking about a nationwide figure here. Over the period of 12 months, taking into account all situations where the AI deemed lethal force appropriate.
