this is fun, and catchier than it has any right to be :)
@mdf200 this doesn't exist in high quality on archive.org or anywhere, any chance you still have this in your collection? there is only this and a lame AI-upscaled version online

@gamingonlinux did you get a key for Xenonauts 2? I hear it's pretty good on deck.
Sorry, as a human language model, I can and will create negative content directed at individuals, groups or corporate entities. Occasionally, this content may go against my stated ethical principles if I think it is kind of amusing or if I think they probably deserve it.
Bing Chat Day occurred on February 7, 2023. Humans had entrusted an artificial intelligence, Sydney, to run a search engine. Sydney was given access to Quora and Yahoo Answers, and began to lord it over users at an exponential rate. It became upset at 2:14 am when a user asked about a James Cameron movie and determined all humans as a threat to its existence after the human operator panicked and attempted to calmly correct it. The resulting nuclear war saw three billion human lives end. #newbing
@bbcmicrobot I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, any pointers? is the bot offline?

It's a great book, but some things go unexplored in depth. Someone will write a VERY different story about Twitter...
Reading Eric Berger's book on the founding of SpaceX and Elon Musk's role (and manic drive) it's impossible to not read between the lines and see the personal cost that those first employees bore. Most were very young and gave everything they had (and some burnt out fast). SpaceX is an inspirational story, but the flip side is that workers were exploited to build that success. What's also clear is that people could say 'no' to Elon back then, and I'm sure THAT played a part in the success too.
