That other things are also bad is no reason to not try to look at and change your own situation.
The gold-standard tasteful way to handle stuff like this is cast a friend of the original actor. An example is Jon Lovitz replacing Phil Hartman on Newsradio.
I agree they could possibly get away with AI since it's being driven by his cast mates, but I don't think they'd try it.
Why care about the person behind the Banksy signature?
The art is the important part here.
It's an interesting journalistic debate. On the one hand their job is to report, not to help people stay anonymous.
But Banksy is part performance art, and his anonymity is part of that, by revealing his identity you arguably destroy the art work.
I feel like this expose kinda gets forgotten because Banksy was never completely anonymous, the reason he's not really known is that people recognize the anonymity is part of it and they don't want to know who he is.
Or chloromidians? Was there any mention of chlorine on it?
In the absence of chlorine, would flouromidians form? Would flouromidian-based life have any unusual properties?
Or whatever it is that tricorders detect?
Or souls? Did it make a detour through our solar system to pick up a few souls for later use?
Never would have believed it was a fake.
All this shows is that society does not need to consume that much fuel, we can adapt.
Not in the slightest.
It just shows we have some levers to reduce consumption that we don't normally use.
It doesn't show that we can reasonably use those levers long term, not that those levers are actually sufficient to reduce fuel consumption enough to make up the difference.
Maybe they're looking for the heat signature of crypto mining.
just keep the poor busy with cheap entertainment and use shock and awe to distract and confuse us
People are already being entertained buy the unending revelations from the Epstein files.
And shocked, though not particularly awed.
God created a vast universe He isn't happy with JUST us. That is one argument.
Interestingly, in one of the Gnostic Gospels, Jesus is quoted as saying when he departed that he had to go visit "sheep of other folds, that you know not of".
