    Baltimore Key Bridge collapss

    What I don't understand is why there weren't barriers around the support pillars like there are at many other bridges to prevent this from happening? Just no infrastructure budget to pay for it like usual?

    Baltimore Key Bridge collapss

    Make sure you have a glass breaking tool in your glovebox, that will help ease your fear a bit at the very least. Obviously there's still a LOT that can go wrong anyway. I also watched the two Mythbusters episodes about it and what their tips are for survival...good thing to watch. Regarding...

    Do you think Anson Mount is cute and handsome?

    Heck I'm a straight male and find him handsome and making the rest of us look bad :D I wish I could pull off the look of his hair as Captain Pike but it would look wrong on me

    Which animated movies did you mistakenly think were Disney movies?

    There's a few studios that come out with popular animated movies outside of Disney of course, but which movies did you mistakenly think were Disney movies? I think when I was growing up, "An American Tail" initially I thought was Disney...until they built the land in Universal Studios Florida...

    What's working for me so far

    Hi everybody. I don't really post in this part of the boards much, however like a lot of people I have struggled with fitness and weight loss in the past, but wanted to share my recent thoughts. Apologies as this is a long post but hopefully (?) worth reading. First, statistics: I'm a 45 year...

    Which movies can't you bring yourselves to watch/re-watch?

    Selena - the movie about the singer Selena Quintanilla....it was incredibly beautiful but super heartbreaking since it was a true story and she was murdered by the president of her fan club :sad1:

    Bizarre Conspiracy Theories

    I don't understand the "space isn't real" argument...like do they think there's just a blanket that gets pulled over the earth or something with lights on it?

    Bizarre Conspiracy Theories

    That Paul McCartney was replaced early on in the Beatles formation after he died or something? I don't know, I never did a lot of "research" into it, but thought it was wild. Also the Titanic wasn't the actual ship that sank but was actually its sister ship, The Olympic which is just...strange

    We're all doomed: AI generated video is extremely realistic now

    Elections are just the tip of the iceberg though, and not everything has to be related directly to candidates either to push a narrative. I have thought in the past that whenever a candidate is doing a speech, etc. that they should always have multiple camera angles, so we don't just see one...

    We're all doomed: AI generated video is extremely realistic now

    I wanted to add the other side of this coin.....now that this is as realistic as it is, basically any REAL video we see can be challenged as being "fake" by others. I don't know how we get out of this, other than developing tools that can identify real vs generated videos.....a very challenging...

    We're all doomed: AI generated video is extremely realistic now

    Not sure how that relates at all...completely different situations. This is going to give everyone a tool with zero actual skill or time required to create fake videos for all kinds of nefarious purposes...you can't close pandora's box again.

    We're all doomed: AI generated video is extremely realistic now

    Right, and while most of this stuff is relatively harmless, when I scroll through facebook (which I still use because some of my friends/relatives are only on that platform), there's already TONS of AI generated images with commentors who have no clue at all. I think FB and other social media...
