It'll be set in a norwegian prison, but be panned by american audiences for being too unrealistic and spark another rallying cry against woke media.

Has SBF suggested to the court that he creates a non-fungible token of his physical custody and they place an irreversible entry on the ledger that it is in prison?

In my Hardwired Island campaign I had a corporation abducting people, forcing them into the VR Internet and harnessing their brains to farm gold in World of Warcraft 24/7

Man crushed to death by robot that thought he was a box: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-67354709 quote:A man has been crushed to death by a robot in South Korea after it failed to differentiate him from the boxes of food it was handling, reports say. E: it’s not entirely clear if the robot used CV to determine the guy was a box, or if the guy just stepped into the predetermined “box goes here” area and the robot just did what it was programmed to do Boris Galerkin fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Nov 9, 2023 |

Yeah that is a failure of lock-out-tag-out or operating on live equipment procedures. Something similar happened with a drill rig in QLD, the operator accidently hit the "grab the drill bit, robot arm" button while a worker was still in the line of fire and killed the guy working the floor. https://www.coronerscourt.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/778951/DODUNSKI,-Gareth-Findings.pdf

Eh, at some point we have to define what "tech" is, thousands die yearly from non-robotic cars being manually operated. Is that "tech"? If someone's clothing gets caught on the conveyor belt and get a one-way trip to the grain elevator, is that "tech"? In this case, the robot was undergoing maintenance, so, while a tragedy, I do not believe is a "nightmare".

If “jitney cabs but hailed via the Internet” is a tech nightmare, like not even the “autonomous” ones, industrial robots certainly are.

YouTube has also increased the price of their subscription. And my homebrewed cocktail of 5 different adblockers stopped working, I added a few more and now they work, but only in incognito mode. I'm still holding on to Chrome, but I may have to switch. I guess they are really struggling in some other area and need to squeeze money from wherever they can? Or it's just a general "ad supported content is not profitable" trend.

Numbers always have to go up to make wall street happy and they've crammed as many ads as they can into the content already so they're increasing the number of people watching the ads. The profit or losses they currently make are irrelevant except in comparison to the numbers for next quarter

Firefox with uBlock is pretty much a one-and-done solution for the time being, though.

Eeeeeeeh, X, but via a dumb app is kind of the thread's bread and butter. I will admit that "non-novel industrial accidents" do not have their own thread, and therefore this is currently the best place for them.

It's possible this factory was failing basic safety standards in their procedures, but not too likely. It's much more likely the guy skipped locking out since he was in a hurry and it was fine the last 99 times he did that (and probably his boss was leaning on him to work fast and willing to look away from safety violations)

The profit or losses they currently make are irrelevant except in comparison to the numbers for next quarter Just in the interets of conversation, it also depends on people clicking on the ads, and buying the things shown in the ads. It could mathematically be possible that increasing the number of eyeballs with people tech savvy enough to install an ad blocker could lead to shittier results. I'd hope we'd be beyond youtube showing higher "impressions" on their ads and shareholders being impressed. Just tried removing everything but ublock and it didn't work, Firefox here we go i guess. Edit: switching to firefox was easy, and just ublock blocks youtube's adds. It didn't import the correct chrome profile by default, i had to do a few extra clicks in settings for that but quite simple really Mr. Nemo fucked around with this message at 01:06 on Nov 10, 2023 |

I'm somewhat inclined to agree, but the core of it feels like "how is tech making our lives worse for the sake of someone's pocketbook" - like at some point that grain elevator example very much fit this definition. But that definition is so broad as to be meaningless, so I'm inclined to agree with a "novel ways" clarification.

all tech nightmares are capitalism nightmares with extra screws so it's a tech nightmare. and at the same time the machine certainly wasn't using ML object recognition because dumb is faster. the dream of less efficiency can be sold to investors but nobody's gonna run it on the factory floor

Foxfire_ posted:Basic safety practice for doing maintenance on a robot arm on a factory floor involves locking out motion while humans are around (in a "physically disconnect electric/pneumatic/hydraulic power" way, not an "nicely ask the controls not to move" way) Possibly as he was working late there was just a miscommunication/lack of sleep and he thought it already had been locked out, although with proper safety protocols in place there should of been an easy way for him to check, and that should of been a thing he should of done. Also outside possibility the machine was Steven King'esqly possessed by evil and what not, and just has a thirst for blood. Safety inspections rarely catch that.
