Shit. There are no walls keeping me in, and no one is telling me the world outside is dangerous, but I barely ever leave anyway. When I do leave, it’s only to a small handful of relatively close places where I feel comfortable.

Even a blind squirrel can find a nut.

The fun part is you can do everything right, and your child can still be harmed because the asshats living near you don’t trust science because it makes them feel dumb.

Isn’t that fun? Yippee! What a time to be alive (for now)!

There’s so many bastards, I don’t know how I could possibly get to all the episodes of that podcast.

Not to mention when I try to listen I get so enraged I can’t continue.

You’ll get stones and be glad to have them!

Better save a copy of those papers before they are purged for not conforming to the MAGATruth.

I can only imagine what happens when you see the words, President of the United States Donald Trump.

Your dry cleaning bill must be astronomical.

I imagine it’s a combination of not wanting to reveal sources and mechanisms for acquiring intelligence, needing to follow due process, unwillingness to show federal agencies interfering with a federal election, as well as a certain amount of fascism within the agencies involved.

Add to that the previously common assumption that “it can’t happen here.”

The real question is, why did the Biden administration not recognize the existential threat in letting them try again?

Just urinate on the butt before you put it in your pocket. It’s still less nasty than throwing it on the ground.

I’m not a smoker. I never have been. I’ve always been amazed that smokers somehow managed to get society to look the other way at such blatant littering.

Great. Now the Democrats can have everything lined up to take over during the midterms and…change nothing.

The Natural

He’s not wrong.

Did you at least lay him out?

I think the LLM could be decent at the task of being a fairly dumb personal assistant. An LLM interface to a robot that could go get the mail or get you a cup of coffee would be nice in an “unnecessary luxury” sort of way. Of course, that would eliminate the “unpaid intern to add experience to a resume” jobs. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad,l. I’m also not sure why anyone would want it, since unpaid interns are cheaper and probably more satisfying to abuse.

I can imagine an LLM being useful to simulate social interaction for people who would otherwise be completely alone. For example: elderly, childless people who have already had all their friends die or assholes that no human can stand being around.
