Smoking. Millions of euros of taxpayer money spent every year on those lung cancer patients which could be well spent elsewhere. It's also an activity that negatively affects not just the smoker but everyone around them.

I have no one to blame. I can’t blame my kid. I can’t blame God because it’s inappropriate. I have nobody to blame.

Should be very obvious to blame the person who left a loaded fucking gun in reach of a toddler...

Aren't Trump's lawyers currently arguing in front of the supreme court that it would have been perfectly legal for Biden to do so, him being immune from all criminal prosecution while president?

Sources state Glance will not capture data, but will instead leverage a user’s “patterns” to offer recommendations.

Those "patterns" are literally data. What a nonsensical sentence.

How exactly is Biden responsible for Republicans blocking any Ukraine aid that he's trying to get through congress?

The wizard was called "Le Sorcier". Lovecraft wrote that story when he was 17, so I think we can cut him some slack that it wasn't a masterpiece.

The word "AI" has been used for way longer than the current LLM trend, even for fairly trivial things like enemy AI in video games. How would you even define a computer "thinking on its own"?

Sea of Thieves has microtransactions.

No Man's Sky was wildly successful at launch, making the devs a ton of money. I guess they felt bad about not delivering on their promises, so they used that money to fund further development.

The whole point of Cyberpunk's setting is that it's a capitalist hellscape. The corpos don't care about the environment or setting up a nice public transport network. And of course there is also the gameplay perspective, riding a train in a videogame gets very boring very quickly.

Sounds like MLM bullshit at best, or something illegal like being a money mule at worst.

The point he makes is correct of course, but the way he does the comparison is not very honest. If he wants to compare to the maximum capacity of a tube train, he'd also have to take the maximum capacity of a car, not the average passengers.
